The present extremely dull state OF
the anthracite coal trade is only equalled
by the almost unparalleled mild and
open winter season of this year. Ex-
cepting for the iron manufacturing and
steam sizes there is very little demand
for anthracite. There is very little in
quiry for coal, and the operators and
shippers are complaining that they
cannot sell their product of the domestic
sizes even at the large concessions from
the circular prices they are willing to
accept. For some time past many col
lieries have been operating on short time
ands ONE breakers have suspended for
two or three days week, to limit their
output, but now it is found that greater
curtailment is necessary to prevent a
large accumulation of stock coal at the
tidewater shipping points.
Last week the Reading Company and
the individual operators in the Schuyl-
kill region gave notice that their collier
les would work on three-quarters time
until further notice, but that was hardly
necessary, as they were already working
only about two-thirds of their total
number of active mines, and these, too,
on quarters time, while the opera
tors in the Lehigh and Wyoming districts
were likewise curtailing their production
by the same method. A number of
mines in the Shamokin region were shut
down last week for an indefinite period,
and during the holidays there will be
more or less idleness in all three of the
anthracite fields, which ought to greatly
reduce the output and cause decrease
in the accumulated stocks at tidewater.
Many coal operators would like to sus-
pend mining entirely for two weeks or
month, and, so far as the demand for
the domestic sizes is concerned, they
could do so proftably, but, having to
fulfil their contracts in supplying the
iron furnaces in the Schuylkill and Le-
high Valleys, which are nearly all run
ming to their full capacity, of course they
must keep on mining the unsaeable sizes
in large quantities in order to obtain the
necessary amount of the furnace sizes.
The Lehigh Valley and Reading Rail
roads are reported to have temporarily
emb. rtoed shipments to Trenton, Am
To-, Phiade phia, Washington and ad-
iacent points on account of the slack
demai d and the accumulated stock of
coal already in dealers yards.
The total amount of anthracite coal
sent to mar ;et for the week ending
December H. as reported ly the several
compared with 712, ,290 tons in the cores
ponding week last year, an increase of
1886 tons. The total amount of an
thracite mined thus far in the year 1889
was "a, ,O76,S25 tons, compared with &c.
991 ,474 tons for the same period last year,
decrease of 2,9l4 $40 tons.-Ledger.

When the old and middle-aged men of
the present day were boys, one of the
merry delights of Thanksgiving day was
a sleigh ride. Snow fell usually about
the middle of November, and by the last
Thursday in the month it had come to
stay. But things have changed materi-
ally of late years as it is very rarely that
we get snow enough for sleighing at
Thanksgiving time. Indeed, Christmas
does not always guarantee snow, and it
is always along in January before we get
very much. All sorts of theories have
been advanced as to the cause of this
change of atmospherical condition. Our
winters are not so severe as they formerly
were and the rivers and ponds do not
freeze up so soon as of old. Some say
the warmer conditions of the climate are
due to the Gulf Stream currents, and
others to the denuding of the forests.
All the same, the old-fashioned winter
of our grandfathers, like the latter, are
seen no more.

A Valuable Business Calendar.

The most convenient, valuable and
unique business table or desk calendar,
for 1890, is the Columbia Bicycle Calen-
dar and Stand, issued by the Pope Mfg.
Co., of Boston, Mass. The calendar
proper is in the form of pad containing
1856 leaves, one for each day of the year,
to be torn off daily, and one for the
entire year. A portion of each leaf is
left blank for memoranda, and as the
leaves are not pasted but sewed at the
end, any entire leaf can be exposed
whenever desired. By an ingenious de-
vice the leaves tear off independently,
leaving no stub. The pad rests upon
portable stand, containing pen rack and
pencil holder, and when placed upon a
desk or writing table the entire surface
of the date leaf is brought directly, and
left constantly, before the eye, furnish
ing date and memoranda impossible to
be overlooked. The stand is made of
colored wood, mounted with raised let
ters in brass, and is practically indes-
tructible. The days of the week, the
number of the days of the year past and
to come are specified, and upon each slip
appear quotations pertaining to cycling
from leading publications and prominent
writer's; and although this is the fifth
year of the calendar, they are fresh and
new. Bisides the cycling quotations
there are many pertaining to typewrit-
ing, with occasional reference to the
typewrters made by the Pope Mfg. Co.

The so-called news gatherers have
renewed their periodical discussion OF
Coke Bros. & Co.'s suit against the Le-
high Valley Company, now pending be-
fore the Interstate Commission. These
energetic purveyors to Wall Streets
credulity now tell lis that no official de-
cision will be formally rendered. There
will simply be a compromise between
the parties in interest, involving modi-
fication of the rates of transportation, SO
that there may be less disparity between
the charges on hard and soft Goals. Of
course the presumption is inevitable that
the information was furnished erctusirely
to reporter of a news agency by the
members of the commission charged
with the regulation of our interstate
commerce, but nevertheless the opinion
may be ventured that this is about as
far from the truth as the rest of the in
Vulnerable rumors in circulation during
the year. We have no doubt that in
due time a decision will be announced,
and we haye little more doubt that it
will be substantially in favor of Coke

THOUSANDS OF IDLE MINERS.
The Situation In and Around ShamoIxin
Mt. Carmel and Trevorton

Poverty and pauperism prevail to an
alarming extent among the miners in
certain portions of Northumberland
County and the condition of affairs about
Trevorton, Shamokin and Mt. Carmel
and in the adjoining townships is causing
uneaslness among the substantial citizens
of these places.
Irevorton, two months ago prosper
GUS village of 5000 inhabitants. has
hardly 1000 souls within its borders now.
AT Mt. Carmel thousands of men and
boys are idle. The foreign element
composes most of this army of idle men,
and the men are in many cases becoming
sullen and angry.
The present dullness in the coal regions
and the depopulation of the town is
attributed to the open winter of 1888 and
the same condition of weather Just now.
The Philadelphia and Reading Coal and
Iron Company owns nearly all the mines
in Northumberland County, and the
shutting down of the North Franklin
colliery, is the cause of the distress at
Trevorton, as it was the only industry at
that place. The idle men emigrated to
Shamokin, only to find that there was no
employment there. Then they went to
Coal Township and subsequently, to Mt.
Carmel and East District, but encounter
ed the same condition of things.
w. l.. Scott's Hickory Swamp and
Hickory Ridge collieries are closed, and
the Pennsylvania, employing over 100
men and boys, will stop work in a short
time, The stoppage in all the mines
which have ceased work will be for an
indefinate period. Individual collieries
are shutting down daily, and unless a
cold wave comes to stay, the destitution
will be awful
At Shamokin similar condition of
affairs prevail. On Friday morning
Buck Ridge colliery shut down, throw
ing over 700 men out of employment.
AS the news floated through the town it
was met by another report that the
Morris Ridge coliery had ceased oper-
ations and 800 more miners were idle.
When the whistle at the Nelson shaft
sounded Friday evening 100 of its en-
ployes were notified that owing to no
orders the works could go on no longer.
The Lancaster mines are likely to shut
down any day. The Luke Fidler and
Garfield collieries shut down for an in
definite period on Saturday, owing to
in the coal trade. 1900 men
were thrown out of employment. The
only collieries now working in the Sha-
mokin district are the Bear Valley,
Burnside, Henry Clay, Excelsior and
Enterprise. 5000 miners are now idle.
The miners Injured to hardship have
made no complaint as yet, but the for
eigners in Hickory Swamp and the Ridge
are grumbling and moving about in
restless manner. No strikes being on
the latter cannot understand the nature
of the enforced idleness. They are
living on bread and water.

The Miners Christmas Present.

The Delaware, Lackawanna and Wes-
tern Coal Company yesterday notified
their employees at the Brisbin, Sloan,
Archibald, Dodge. Manville and Hall
sted mines, numbering over 1000 miners
and laborers, that the collieries would
shut down until the weather wa, cold
enough to overcome the present stagna-
ton in the coal trade. The Pennsylva-
mia Coal Company, with IA mines at
Dunmore, Pleasant Valley and about
Pittston, have also shut down, all but
one at each place, throwing about 1000
more employees out. The Delaware and
Hundon Canal Company's men will
probably receive similar notice before
the week is ended.
