All Delaware and Hudson mines in
the vicinity of Carbondale have been
put on half time. Owing to the un-
seasonablc weather. there is little de-
mand for coal and as the production
continues to be very large the stock on
hand is rapidly accumulating and there
is trouble to store it. The Delaware
and Hudson has about two hundred
thousand tons stored on the Honesdale
docks. This order is also result of
the meeting of the coal companies
presidents which was held in New
York last week when it was deemed
advisable to restrict the tonnage of the
various companies.
