equal, as n general rule, The rate per
loo weight should be less in the former
than i'll the latter case. a maximum

THE COAA COMBINE.
Anthracite Business Under One

Anthracite Business Under One
Management.
Feb. 1O.-The rumOrs
regard NJ the great anthracite coal deal
which had been flying around for few
days assumed definite shape this morn
ing, when it was authoritatively all
nounced that combination embracing
the Reading, Lehigh Valley, Jersey
Central, Lackawanna and Delaware IL
Hudson had been formed. The details
of the deal were not given to the pub
lie. but it was learned from an official
source that the papers had been signed,
and that nothing now remains 10 be
done. The Reading has leased the lie
high Valley and the Jersey Central
railroads on Z per cent basis, and has
brought the Lackawanna and the Della
ware IL Hudson into the combination.
The latter roads enter into contract
with the Reading whereby the entire
anthracite coal business of the country
is controlled by one management. 1t is
under stood that the Reading will have
| representation in the LackaWanna
| and Delaware & Hudson roads, and
that the entire anthracite coal business
| of the United States will be brought
| under one head.
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 10.-President
cLeod, of the Reading railway, gave
the following information this evening ::
| The arrangement that for some time has
| been in process designed TO place the
cOal-producing and carrying institutions
OIL more stable foundation have been
completed. The primary object in view
| has been to secure more economical
management in the coal trade by avoid
| ing expensive selling agencies aud
heavy commissions. SO that while coal
will not cost any more to the consumer,
the coal producers and carriers can get
better results and secure profits by saw
| ing expenses. The combination and
complex agreements heretofore made
have been generally found inadequate
to accomplish the object sought, as the
binding force was insufficient.

been acted upon because Mr.. Mccall

WOMEN At TRIALS.
Why Ladies Flock to the Court.
A Clear Definition of the Causes
which Make women SO Suscepti-
bic 10 Emotion.

A Clear Definition OF the causes
which Make Women SO Suscepti-
bic 10 Emotion.
The New York Sun has an able editorial III
which il seeks 10 show why sCme women
love 10 attend sensational or murder trials
IL says: Women are not stirred AT al bV
many of the occurrences which agiIate men,
but when q case involving life ana death
comes up, a tragic case. and more espe-
cally when it has about it mystery i'll
which a woman is concerned, aid
woman of the more refined society,"
they follow its course with an intensity
ofintereSt greater than men feel. 1t is akin
TO the fascination which fictitious tragedy
on the stage has for women. and for women
more than men. 1t is n luxury for many
good women TO have their tenderest feelings
of sympathy aroused. They enjoy going TO
funerals and wiping away tears shed Ill uni
son with those of sorrowing relatives The
plays that wiring the heart are more attractive
for them than the comedies which provoke
merriment They delight i'll having their
feelings reused TO the highest pitch.
This is all undoubtedly true, but there is a
cause far back of all this. II is a cause
which has its origin in the lite ana condl-
tion of the women themselves Most women
are weak and not in good health. When Il
woman is sickly. her feelings are quickly
aroused, and she suffers keenly. This is the
real actual cause of il all. Women should
not suffer. They are designed by nature
often. il is continual suffering when there is
certain relief. Read the experience OF
New York lady:
Mrs j. +. Beale. residing at 363 Lexington
avenue, says: About six years ago | Suf-
tered from severe attack of ertonitis and
general kidney troubles Despite The attand
ance of skilled ply sicians my ailments in
creased. finally decided to t.y Warmers
Safe Cure and purchased n bottle This step
was taken unon The advise of several friends
who had been benefited by its use. At this
time the physicians stated that another Mt
tack or my malady would most aSsuredly
prove fatal. took four bottles of The safe
cure, which entirely cured me. Whenever
feel as though any of the symptoms were re
turning | take dose and immediately feel
better l now feel as well as in my girlhood
and ii is entirely due 10 this remedy.
Is this an isolated experience BY no
means. 1t is precisely what hundreds of
other ladies have found tine i'll tncir expert
enee. 1t shows lhat-lf women continued to
suffer, if the trials of life weigh them down
when they shouldhe joyful. they haze them
selves only to blame. There Is means of
relief, of restoration. 1t is pure il IS safe, it
is woman's best friend. By its use she can
be enabled 10 withstand the ills of life and
secure both health aud happiness. -

Transcontinental Roads Go Easy
on Commissions.

IL IeOstuS NO Easy
on Commissions.
CHICAGO. Feb. 10.-All the roads in
terested in the Transcontinental lmmi-
grafton traffic declare that they have
not as yet availed themselves of the
privilege granted by the commissions
they may pay on that business.
Furthermore, they do not admit that it
is their intention to do so. Having OBJ
tanned what SoIEe of them were clamor-
ing for they seem to have Suddenly
changed their minds and decided, with
surprising unanlmity, that it would not
be wise to return to the policy of a few
years ago, when they filled cars at the
expense of revenue. Since Chairman
Finley and Chairman Walker have both
declined to name a specific figure by
which they may he governed in meeting
outside competitions. they have about
decided that the only course left open
to them is to settle the question, if pos
sible, by special agreement among
themselves.
