ANTHRACITE COAL.

Not only in the East but at Buffalo
and at the anthracite and bituminous
mines in Pennsylvania, the shortage of
ears is becoming quite factor in de-
mand and supply of coal. All-rail an
thracite is becoming scarce In Ohio,
Michigan and Indiana on account of
the strlngency In the car situation at
Buffalo and at the mines. Many of the
roads have placed embargoes on their
coal cars and will permit none to leave
the main lines. OF course 1t must be
quite clearly understood that there is
as yet no actual famine, vet the short
age, despite the fact that during the
present summer orders for many
thousands of new cars have been
placed, of which only a tithe have been
delivered, is becoming more serious
each week, and If real cold weather
should develop early in October, con.
siderable Inconvenience and annoy
ance might be entailed by dealers in
outside towns, who usually refrain

The Delaware and Hudson Canal
company at Buffalo, n. y, now has
$500 additional feet of improved dock
age at the foot of Louisiana street, as
the result of work just completed by
the Buffalo Dredging company. The
work consisted of building a solid ma
sonry dock ana dredging the river so
as to give a depth of IL feet of water
below mean low water level for a
width of 200 feet. Much of the dredg-
ing was done in solid rock. The entire
dock is now accessible to lake boats of
the largest class.
Dr. Roberts, chief sanitary superln-
tendent of New York city, submitted IL
report on the soft coal smoke nuisance
to the board of health last week to the
effect that the city be divided into in
spection districts in order that the
nuisance might be abated. The sug-
gestion was adopted unanimously and
twenty-seven inspection districts were
created. It is proposed that when a
case Is reported by one Of these in
spectors, notice will be served on the
owner of the building to abate the
nuisance. If the order is not obeyed
criminal proceedings will follow. what
effect this will have upon the soft coal
trade Is yet to be seen. No doubt n
test case will have 20 be made before
there will be any special changes of
the use of soft coal in the city limits.
