SAY AN ENGLISH EXPORT TAX WOULD
GREATLY BENEFIT THEM

The proposal of Sir Michael Hicks-Beach to tax
coal exported from England a shilling a ton was
a gratifying announcement to coal exporters here
All those seen yesterday were OF the opinion that
the would stimulate the export business Of this
country.
c. ]. Wittenberg, president Of the Chesapeake
and Ohio Coal and Coke Company. said:
AT many of the Medi. erranean ports where both
English and American coal is shipped the price is
very close, and an export tax Of shilling
English coal will divert much business this
country. The tax will be especially welcome. too
for the last few years the price Of English coal
has been steadily declining. while the price of
American coal has been advancing. This has been
due to the growth of the steel industry here and
the decline of the steel business in England.
A great trouble that American dealers have had
