How the New British Tax On Coal
Operates.

How the New British Tax On Coal
Operates.
NEW YORK. May 21.-Hamilton Smith,
president and general manager of the
Stoke. on Trent Colliery company, linn
tied, of Manchester, England, has ar
rived on his way to Pittsburg on bust
ness. Speaking of the recently imposed
export tax Of shilling ton on British
coal, he says:
'"The tax is retrogressive action and
one which will in a short time dislocate
trade and act as detriment on COM
mercial activity. The British govern
ment is under the impression that the
foreign consumer will pay. That, how
ever, is already proving to be CONNER
cial fallacy. The foreign consumer is
not going to pay such a tax for his coal.
He buys his coal in the cheapest market.
''The Americans, too, since the inn
mense developments of their coal trade,
previous to any question of this export
tax on the British product, were making
bold bid to GUST us from the markets,
and now the imposition of this tax is
the golden opportunity that they have
been looking for.
''The tax has resulted in my compa-
ny, as we'll as numerous others through
out England and Scotland, being com"
PEELED to raise the price of steam coal,
for which there has been remarkable
demand since the tax, from 10 shillings
to IL shillings q ton. Other grades
have been raised in price proportIonate-
ly. Of course, the poor are the chief
sufferers. The manufacturers, too. have
in many instances had to restrict their
output and reduce their working
forces.'
