pleased over the outlook. When that rail-
road company recently organized the pool
for sharing profits it attempted to obli-
gate all operators to ship by that lne the

10 cents. The operators who refused to
agree shipped by the Monon at so cents open,

will let the two roads fight 1t out, and if
coal is to be sold still lower the reduction
must be in freight, as S1.20 at the mine is
as low they will furnish it, The price
of $1.70 in Chicago is lower than ever be-
fore for block coal. and is 81 lower than at
this time last year.
