The Coal Trade.


Shipments of coal from the mines of
the Georges Creek coal region were
in long tons
For week ending Sept. 30, 1S93.... 9O,961
I" year to same date. ..............2,9 1856 4S1
Increase compared with last year,. 245, 1854
The latest news from the markets is
CLEANED as follows:
There is little or no change to report in the
soft coal market. The brisk autumn trade
continues and most of the mines are working
on full time The demand of course, is
chiefly on contract orders, but this is a small
transient trade which comes from consumers,
who, for some reason or other, do not procure
their supply for the season. 1t is expected,
however, that consgnees on season contracts
will on account of the business depression,
take their minimum amount specified in their
contracts instead of the hartman, as thew
have usually done.-Engineeridg and Mining
journal
The soft coal market presents no new
features and trade is very light with the
shippers more or less busy upon old orders.
The recent starting up, however, of many of
the industrial establishments in New England
is likely to cause an increase in the demand
for soft coal.-Coal Trade Journal.

Improve the Roads,

Good roads have wonderful effect.
They increase the value of farm lands,
cheaper the cost of transportation, ex-
tend the hospitalities of the people, at
tract travel and business, fill up the
schoolhouses and churches and adj
vance civilization wonderfully. In
general, good roads practically shorten
distances, encourage communication
between town and county, becetit
trade. enhance the value of adjacent
property, and effect large saving in
money expended in hauling materials
over bad thorOughfares.
Fifty years ago there was some ex-
cuse for bad roads, for the country was
poor. Now it is rich; there is no ex-
cuse. Good roads mean better bust
ness for you as we'll as for everyone.
The good farmer will improve the road
along his farm and will see in a few
years how much more valuable the
farm will become.
A Monongalia farm where the roads
are good adjoining it is worth more
than one that has a bad road running
alongside. A farm twelve miles from
a railroad in a district with good roads,
is worth more than one equally as
good three miles from the railroad
where the roads are bad. Morgan.

A significant fact is that the records
of the Comptroller of the Cur ency
show not single failure of national
bank since August 18th, the day on
which the House gave SO overwhelm-
ing vote in favor of repeating the
purchasing clause of the Sherman Act.
To the present time, since the period
of extreme depression began, there
have been 1873 failures of national
banks. Of these 81 have re opened, s.
are in the hands of receivers, 80 are in
the hands of examiners. and | has
gone into liquidation. These figures
are interesting, but they acquire a
particularly strong significance when
it is added that of the 81 banks which
have reopened % have resumed bust
