SOFT COAL COMBINE.
Plans For Operating In Chesapeake
and OhiO DistrIct.

\ combination among some Of the
large soft coal operators in the New
river district of the Chesapeake and
Ohio railroad. says a Cincinnati dis
patch. Is being formed with the view
Of competing with the Pocahontas Coal
and Coke company, which was incor
polated in Trenton, y. j., with a cap
ital of S40,OOO0O0.
The combination, II Is said, Is headed
by the Mckee Coal and Coke company
of West Virginia, large miners Of Goa
aud owners of land In the New river
district. The annual output Of this
company alone Is estimated at some
thing over 100000 tons. The com
pany owns some 25,00O acres OF Goa
land ana has under its control som,
10000 acres more, which is considered
more than onc-half of all the available
coal land along the Chesapeake ant
Ohio railroad.
In conjunction with the Mckee mines
are those under control Of the Chesa
peake and Ohio Coal ana Coke com
pany, of which G. j. Wittenberk of New
York city is president. This comblna
ton has been made possible through
the expiring of certain options whicl
heretofore have been in force.

WHY ENGLAND is BEATEN
our Manufacturer Produce Cheaper
nnd Get Better Hallway Rates.


aud Get Better Hallway Rates.
Some of the reasons why American
manufacturers beat us in our own mar
kets. says the London Express, were
very clearly pointed out by Mr.. Sheriff
Lawrence, NJ. T.. speaking at a meeting
Of the Newport chamber of commerce
called recently TO consider the best
means of furthering the trade of the
Welsh port.
During his recent visit 20 the States.
said Mr.. Lawrence, Mr.. Schwab, the
president of the steel trust. told him
that they could deliver steel bllets in
England at $3.50 per ton, while the
lowest prloe at which English steel
makers could deliver was so. lie add
ed that the S165O included 50 for ocean
freight; but that when they had PEI
fected their present arrangement the
price would be lower still. Mr.. Schwab
also said that at the Pittsburg steel
works and elsewhere they paid their
men double the wages the same class
of men got in England, but the cost of
producing was only one-third of what
it was in England.
The cheap cost of transport in Amer
lea greatly contributed to its grow
ing manufacturing supremacy. Iron
ore was carried 1856 miles for SO cents
per gross ton. or one-third of cent
per ton per mile. This rate was very
profitable on the railways, as the cost
of haulage was only 30 cents. mclud-
ing interest on capital. 1t was note
worthy that the cost of carriage from
Pttsburg to New York-45O miles
was less than from Liverpool 10 Bir-
mlngham. one-fourth of the distance
In America cheapness of production
in staple Industries was greatly aided
by knowing the prime cost of trans
| port English railways followed nc
| principle of prime cost and regard was
only paid to what the traffic would
! bear.

SHANGHAI, Jan. 23-Evidence is accu-
mulating which tends to show that the
present delay on the part of the Chinese
peace commissioners in signing the twelve
articles in the preliminary demand note
is due 20 the strong opposition of the En-
press Dowager
She now desires new negotiations OPEN
ed. She does not want TO accept the
twelve articles as in the nature Of an III
timatum from foreign Governments. bur
rather as debatable propositions. She is
now trying to throw the burden of refus-
ing to sign the note on Viceroys Liu Kun
VI, Chang Chih Tung. and Sheng. Director
of Railways and Telegraphs and High
Commissioner Of Commerce
The Empress Dowager says the foreign
ers believe and trust these men. They
made a compact with the foreign repre-
sentatiVes last summer during the Boxer
uPrisings to protect foreigners in The
southeastern provinces and faithfully car
ried it out. For that reason. she says.
these officials should now be able to exact
terms from the foreigners.
There are several factions at the court
which are bitterly opposing each other

Chwang Ling. late Governor Of the Prov
ince Of Kiang-su and now a Privy Coun-
cilor. and Chen, the present Governor Of

These two men are chiefly responsible for
the present deadlock and If their suicidal
policy is pursued further hostile demon
STATIONS may be expected.
These men are most bitter toward Vice
roys Liu Kun VI and Chang Chih Tung.
