The Coal Trade.

Shinmcnts of coal from the mines of
the Georges Creek coal region We're

The latest news from the New York
market is CLEANED as follows:
The bitumin ,,ls coal market continues
dull although there is some improvement
from last week. The main source of trouble
is the lack of usual vessels to get the small
orders. Considerable interference has been
experienced from the number of vessels which
have engaged in taking anthracite instead of
soft coal but now that the rush for hard
coal has eased up somewhat, it is expect
ed that relief will come.
Shipments all around are fair. Producers
in many instances are dlsposing of what is
being shipped, and it is by No means easy
work When more coal will he taken on
contracts there will be more improvement
and this must come to pass before long. Re-
ports from producing centres are to the effect
that the dullness is beng felt there. People
are holding off in expectation of rebates from
the railroads, but the latter have not shown
any disposition to grant them.
The result is that producers are filling up
their quar- ers through lack of orders. Some
of the districts are seeking all-rail western
outlets for their product, either by making it
into coke or in "run of mine" form. 1t is
now claimed by those producers who are
emphatic in their statements that there is
little or no profit in btuninous coal at present
prices, that the railroads must make ALLOW
ances if the market is to improve. Prices
continue unchanged. They range from
So 80 alongside New York, down, according
to grade.
The car supply is good owing to the mod
crate shipments of the poorer grades Of coal.
1t was expected that the Worlds Fair traffic
would cause a sufficiently short supply of
engines to affect coal transportation, but thus
far this has not been the case Engineering

STOOD THE STRAIN WELL.


Business Maintained Throughout the
Country Despite the Failures During
the We k Just Passed.
Il. q. Dun & Co.'S Week ly Review of
Trade says
This week the country has withstood sur
prlsingy well an extraordinary strain, The
failure of many banks and firms, u great
iron syndicate and other companies the
remarkable fall in stocks and the closing of
some important manufacturing establish
ments, have come. in spite of relaxation in
Eastern and some Western and Southern
money markets. Denver banks were over
thrown largely by the unfounded panic of
the people, and several banks in Kansas
have also gone down, but in most cities tn.
statements just published show the banks
in n healthy condition, and there has since
been noticed more readiness 10 extend
accommodation.
The great depression in stocks came at
time when easier money. some return Of
currency from the interior and beginning
of gold imports from Europe made many
hopeful.
The closing OF many manufacturing os-
tablishments Is he inevitable result of great
shrin age in orders for sometime past and
uncertainty regarding the future. Gloomy
crop reports by the department also contrib
buted to checs reviving hopes Uner all
the conditions it is astonishing that bust
ness has been so well maintained with so
little evidence of unsoundness.
The Treasury has been paying gold to the
banks, but on the whole increasing its hold
ings. Exports of products are little larger
than year ago, but imports are also large
