DEMAND For COAL.


Engineering and Mining journal
The demand for coal is as great and the
prices paid Tor itas high as might he expected
in the present condition Of almost universal
industrial activity in the United States. In
many quarters there is complaint Of scarcity
aud slow deliveries, and at many mines the
output is limited only by the difficulty in
getting cars to carry IT, The same report
comes from nearly every quarter and coal
operators are getting chance to make up for
the years Of sharp competition and low
prices through which they have pissed.
The miners are realizing some share of the
in addition to which increases in mining
rates have already been made in some dis
tricts and will be asked for ia others.
The same condition exists in Europe, and
the exports Of coal from Great Britain for the
ten months ending with October reached 80,
107, 649 tons, while that taken by steamship
in foreign trade was 10 O93, ,44O tons both
figures being the highest ever reported for a
similar period. France Germany, Italy and
Russia have all made unusual demand for
English coal, and prices are higher than they
have been for over eight years past.
1t looks as if the present opportunities for
opening AN export trade in American coal
were very good There are two drawbacks
however, the great demand for coal at home
aud high rates of ocean freights at present
prevailing. Notwithstanding these it seems
quite possible that some arrangements foi
foreign trade can be closed if coal operators
are disposed to make them

Alfred takes the place of Alfred, Lord
Tennyson, but 0, how lonely is the
world without Tennyson! Alfred Aus
tin may come clothed with the letters
patent from Apollo himself, and there
still would be vacancy in the literary
world. We think that William Watson
or Rudyard Kipling, or even the erratic
Swinbourne, should have received the
laurel. They should thank the Lord
that they were not named successors
of Tennyson. Austin's self-assertion
,, and assurance make him impervious to
criticism. And Tennyson sleeps in the
grand old abbey, where thousands will
pass the tablets of Kings and courtiers,
and longest pause and clothe with the
sweetest flowers the marble that marks
the resting place of England's greatest
laureate.
