aconistion the Reading controls three-fourths OF
the anthracite coal business Of the country. There
can be. of course, effective opposition, in re-
spect TO prices or production. offered by companies
which represent the minority interest. There are
MANY reasons for believing, however, that the
other companies will De compelled by circum
stances entirely beyond their control to follow the
policv of the Reading Company. The arrange
ment in other words, is an attempt TO combine
the anthracite coal business in much the same

He has not only continued to hold his
own, but shows number of favorable
symptoms heretofore absent. For the

Mr.. Blaine has received have brought
about u reaction from the great depres-

cheerful than the doctors have found him
any day this week. He also takes nour-
islment better. The doctors will not dis
cuss the medical features OF the case, but
it seems probable that Dir, Blaine has had
