Eastern Vtems of the coal Trade.

Ne,c York. Soft Goals have not been
active and few contracts have been
sought. The expectation is. however,
that the output this year on the mar
ket will be exceptionally large with
new fields opened-Mining Record
Nothing has been done since fixing
the prices announced in our last issue,
which were as follows: Free on board
at Philadelphia, Norfolk, Newport
News, Baltimore and Georgetown,
50 60 per ton of 2240 pounds. Free on
board at South Amboy, Perth Amboy,
Elizabethport, Port Johnson, Weehaw-
ken, Hoboken and Port Liberty, for
shipment to points on the North River
south of tifty-seventh street, and to
points on the East River west of He'll
Gate, So. % per ton. Delivered along
side in New York harbor south of Fifty
seventh street, North river, and on the
East River, west of He'll Gate, $3.50
per ton. For Eastern markets the
prices have not been fixed yet, but
will, no doubt, be the same as last year.
The drop in anthracite will proba-
bly, not materially affect the bitumin-
Gus trade, unless it should 90 beyond
the present figures. then, of course, the
soft coal prices would have 20 conform
to those of anthracite. We do not.
however, anticipate any change in
them.
Boston.-The new prices for bitumi-
nous coal have been put around the
trade pretty industriously in the last
few days, and while no transactions
have been reported some developments
may be expected in another week.
Whether there will be any large buy
ing movement at the opening of the
season remains to be seen. The new
price of $3.50 f. o. b. at all shipping
ports is an advance Of ten cents ton
practically, as last year most of the
larger contracts, whether to railroads
or other parties, were placed at s. so,
and not very much was done at $3.50.
1t Is, OF course. too early to say whether
this advance is being maintained.
There IS some coal outside the pool
Offering at enough less then $3.50 to
make it attractive, but how much III
tluencc this will have remains to be
seen. 1t is easy enough to see that
roGr correspondent does not feel very
greatly impressed with the stability of
the pool at first sight of the new
prices. There is much talk here, and
most Of it mere talk, | suppose, such
for instance as the statement that one
agency here sold 100000 tons before
pool prices came Out.--Engineering

OVER IN CHARLESTON.
The Days Happenings on the South
Carolina Side of the River.

The Days Happenings on the South
Carolina Side of the River.
Charleston is to have a chrysanthemum
fair next week.
A committee of the Charleston Chamber
Of Commerce has been appointed to pre-
pare a suitable tribute of respect to the
memory of the late W lillian Ravenel.
Secretary Fairchild has decided to pay
$40, 900 for Rugheimer's lot in Charleston to
facilitate the construction of the public
building there. This Is the price recon-
mended by the jury called to place value
on the site.
The Ne,os and Courier says: 1t is not
likely that anything will be done looking to
the building of the Dorchester before the
return of Mr.. j. A. Woods. its architect
from Tampa, Fla. The committee in
charge has selected the place of the well
for the hotel at a position northeast of the
Ford House on the old lot.
The great auti-license war in Charleston
seems TO have completely died out. The
NetOs and Courier says that the imprisoned
merchants were at their usual places of
business yesterday, apparently none the
worse for their incarceration. The settle
mentS were all made with the city sheriff.
The collections aggregated 1904 so, of which
1898 so is apportioned to the fund to REIN
burse the city for the expenses entailed III
summoning the juries to try the cases. This
amount, together with the fines paid in the
cases of those who preferred to settle rather
than to go to Jail, will, it is thought, REIN
burse the city for the money spent in tie
trials. 1t appears that there is now but
one case out-that against j. G. H. Weller,
the President of the Anti-License AsSocia-
ton. it is presumed that he will follow tho
example of the association and accept the
compromise offered by the city.

GOLD WATCH 81 A WEEK.

This is Not an Installment Plan and
Consequently We Do Not Charge
You from $40 to $40 More for a
Wach Than It is Worth.
The Watch Club is in no sense Of the word a
lottery. Fifty-two members compose a club,
each member pays 81 a week, or 81 a
month, this amount pays for one watch each
week. Then, in order to determine who shall
get the watch first, we take the fifty-two names
and put them in a box, and any member of the
club can draw one out, and the name thus
drawn is the one that gets the watch; he takes
il and continues to pay his 81 a week till paid
for Then next week there are fifty-one names
in the box, and one more is taken out. thus; you
see, leaving fifty, aud next week one more and
80 on until the entire lot has been drawn, which
Of course occurs, in fifty weeks, sure. The last
man to draw his watch receives handsome
gold chain as a premium for waiting
Members are in no wise responsible for any
loss that may occur. Who is IL that cannot
save 81 week. If you join club now and
pay 81 week the time will pass by and you
viii be a watch ahead, and have just as much
money ahead as if you had not gone in a club,
for IL is as sure fate that il you do not spend
the 81 for watch, it will go for something else
and you will be no better off in the end Join
now, clubs constantly forming.
IL is not necessary for you to come In each
week to pay your 81, we can send our young
man after it and give you receipt. Ii you get
sick or out of employment you do not forfeit
you money; it is held TO your credit for two
years.

An Ex-Man Carrier under Charge of
Embezzlement.

q
Embezzlement.
United States Commissioner Frank
Lamar gave Thomas j. McEvoy prelimi-
nary examination yesterday on the charge
of embezzling two registered letters while
in the employ of the pest Office as mail car
rier. One of the letters was addressed to
Jennie Harris and the other to Mittie Silas,
both colored, the latter schoolgirl.
At the examination the two women were
present, and swore positively that they had
not received the registered letters addressed
TO them. Mittie Silas was at school the day
the letter is alleged by McEvoy to
have been delivered to her, and her
aunt. Lucinda Hall swore that on that
day the door was open all day; that she was
at home during that time and no such let
ter was left at the house. Mittie Siias lives
write, and the signature Of the receipt in
McEvoy's registered letter receipt book,
and on the receipt card, were not identical.
The receipt in the book was hardly legible,
while that on the card was well written.
The two signatures should have CORE
sponded, the postal authorities claim.
Commissioner Lamar thought the evil
dence justified him in holding the accused,
and he held him in $500 bail, which was
furnished by Mr.. Joseph Goette. McEvoy
claims that he delivered the letters, one OF
them, the Mittie Silas letter, to colored
woman on the stoop. who claimed she was
the proper one to receive to it. The receipt
in the book and on the card of the Mittie
Silas letter are identical.

WILL PROBABLY BE NASHVILLE.
The National Education Association
to Meet There.

MIR. w. r. Thigpen, of the high school,
returned yesterday morning from Nash
vile, where he has been to attend meeting
of tae directors of the National Educational
Association, to arrange for the next annual
convention, which will probably be held
in that city. The executive committee of
the association will meet in Chicago to-day
to decide fully upon the place of meeting
There is very little doubt, Mr.. Thigp:n
thinks, that Nashville will be the place.
Mr.. Thigpen urged Nashville's claims
before the San Francisco convention last
summer, and it was then pretty well I'M
derstood that the next convention would be
held there. Saratoga and Newport both
wanted it, but the members of the associa-
ton wanted to come south and Nashville
offered every inducement. II ut is decided
upon it is estimated that the attendance
at the next convention will be not less than
10000.
Among the directors who met this
week, besides Mr.. Thigpen, were Prof. John
w. Johnson, University of Mississippi, Ok
ford; Rev. j. A. b. Lovett, superintendent
of Schools, Huntsville, Ala; Prof. j. NJ
Greenwood, superintendent of schools, Kan
sas City, Mo-; Prof. Wharton S. Jones,
Memphis, Tenn; Hon. Thomas H.
Paine, superintendent of schools,
jackson, Tenn; and Prof w. H.
Bartholomew, Louisville, KY. The executive
committee to meet at Chicago to-day is
composed of President Albert P. Marble OF
Massachusetts,, Treasurer Edwin c. Hewett
of Illinois, and Secretary James H. Garfield
of Missouri.
Mr.. Thigpen is in correspondence with
the Southern Passenger Association and the
various railroads in the south in regard tc
rates. There are 5000 white teachers in
Georgia, and the state will be well repre-
sented at the convention. The date Of
meeting will probably be July 16.

improvements at Thunderbolt.

great part of the pleasure of a drive
70 Thunderbolt and Bonaventure is marred
by the sandy mud along the bluff at the
first named place. Visitors will therefore
be glad to learn that Mr. Henry Ambos,
one of the most energetic and enterprising
citizens of this county, who keeps one of
the houses of public resort at Thunderbolt,
is improving the roadway at his own ex-
pense. He has shelled a single track about
half way from his house to the yacht
club grounds, and will finish it in about
two weeks. As soon as that work is done
he proposes to widen the road and make a
broad drive along the entire river point.
Mr. Ambos' improvement will be appre-
ciated by those who take turn on the
shell road.n
