The statement of the Readings ccal
tonnage for the week ended Feb. II
shows a decrease Of GS, 100 II tons, as
compared with the corresponding week
in 1888, and indicates to tue Philadel-
phia StoCkholder that restrictive pre-
cautions continue to be taken by that
company in the matter of output. The
tonnage Of the company for the year
to date shows, however. de-.
crease of only 321, 81? 0S tons
a decrease by no means large
IN view of the condition OF the
coal trade for sometime What is
more, the outlook is not favorable for
any immediate change in the situa ton,
although the time is rapidly drawing
near when it usual to make what are
known as Opening" or spring prices.
1t has heretofore been the custom to
make these prices about the middle of
March, but, az a well known author
ity in the trade says, the condition of
affairs at the present time seems TO
warrant departure fro IN the custom
IL is the opiniou OF some conservative
producers that if this were doue and a
0asis at once fixed that is attractive
there would be q movement OF coal
from the producers to the retailer and
the consumer. 1t is almost unneces
sary to say that in order to have good
trade in anthracite-msaning one OF
continuous mining and delivering
there must be seuss of security on
the part of the retailer that in making
his purchases he Is not likely 10 find
the market price a declining one.

Holland" thus touches up Sam
Sloan. whose recollection to the L9cka-
wanna presidency hc says is in accord
with the purpose of that new interest
whicn has come into that property in
the past year and which ia called the
Vanderbilt interest, amounting to
some 80 900 shares, which with one
other interest is sufficient to control
the property, although the independent
holdings are so scattered that 1t is im-
possible for any single interest to OBJ
tain absolute control. Mr.. Sloan is an
obstinate man and tness new interests
are also obstinate, but there is no
likelihood Of any serious cashing. and
the probabilities are that Mr.. Sloan
may remain nj thu head OF that corpor
alton and confer upon it his unique
and delightful individuality as long
as he lives. He is not the Oldest rail 90
road president in years New York ever
had, although he is now the Oldest
and has been the longest in consecutive
service Of any Of the presidents. He
was first chosen president OF the Lack
awanua when he was 4S wears Of age;
he is now Is. Long before Commodore
Vanderbilt fixed his eyes upon the
Hudson River railway Mr. Sloan was
president of that, and he only retired
from it when Mr.. Vanderbilt obtained
| control. He has been nearly forty
years railroad president AMI his ca
reer has been practically Identical with
that Of railway development in the
United States. He is by long odds the
most unique personality now engaged
in railway management in this city,
and somehow everyone likes him, even
those who understand how heavily his
hand csu come down when he is 50 dis
posed.

An order has been issued that all
passenger engineers in tho LshiRh and
SusQuehRnna division Of the Central
railroad aud their firemen, making
over 1870 miles a day, will hereafter be
idle two days q week, The idea is to
divide tho work mora equally among
the engineers. Since coal has become
slack engineers of coal trains have had
very little to do. 1t ia proposed to let
some Of the coal engineers run freight
and put some freight engineers thus
crowded out on passenger trains. The
New Jersey Central pays it's engineers

murdered the Meeks family near Brown

and for whose arrest rewards aggre-

registered at Gleason's hotel this city.
They are nominally under arrest, be-

arrested the men at Buffalo City Satur-

men admit their identity, but claim to
be innocent of the atrociOus crime

The President Talks on the Financial Situa-
tiOn-The Payment Of Gold.
WASHINGTON, June 26.-The presi-
dent, in speaking of the financial sit
uation, said to Press representative
yesterday:
The offer of certain Of the New York banks
to replace from their vaults the gold withdrawn
from the government treasury for shipment
abroad is certainly thoughtful and patriotic.
1t not only tends to make the treaSuryS gold
reserve in good condition. but adds to the stock
of popular confidence, which is at all times i'm
portant. The elements which make up our
actual situation do not justify any apprehezr
sion: and the administration still adheres TO
its pledge and determination to protect our
national credit at all hazards. and to keep the
quality Of our money equal to the best. SO far
as the limits of executive power permits. OF
course croaking and the spread of disquieting
tales is calculated in the stringent financiGS.
condition.
1 assume. however. that there is too much
patriotism among our people and too much
familiarity with our resources and capabilities
to permit our reserved force and financial vigor
to be diScredited. When the last government
bonds were issued to replsnish our stock Of
