The Hard Coal Trade.

The demand for hard coal, particu-
larly at Eastern points, shows as yet
but little of the midsummer dullness"
so prevalent at this season in form er
years. A heavy tonnage is going from
the mines, and practically all of this is
taken, the roads as yet stocking very
little coal.
In the West. trade shows little i'm
rrovement at Lake Superior points and
it is plain that a lot of anthracite will
be needed there before navigation
closes, In Lake Michigan territory de-
mand from dealers is strong, but as yet
this demand has not resulted in a pro-
portiondte increase in arrivals at docks.
At lower lake points dealers and large
consumers continue to lay in supplies.
The movement up the lakes from Buff
falo is not more than normal. Freight
rates are thlrty-tive cents to Lake
Superior points.
In the East, demand is still strong,
particularly from points beyond Cape
Cod, and shipments from Philadelphia
and New York harbor points are heavy,
| though there is less new business than
last month. Demand is likely to fall
off more after July /, when prices will
| be only twenty cents below the fall fig
ures, and dealers who have not bought
will think of waiting awhile.
The July prices for free burning
white ash coal, f. o. b. New York har-
Dor ports, will be: Broken, $3.50; egg
$tO5; nut and stove, $i.3O. At present
egg and stove are the sizes in most de.
mand and dealers frequently find these
sizes very hard to get for immediate
elivery.-Engineer and Mining Jour.

Another Raise in Price.

According to rumors. there are to be
some important developments in the
general anthracite situation in a very
short time-probably during the week
that Mr.. Morgan returns to this coun-
try. In addition to a further advance
of ten cents a ton in the price of coal,
there is to be, so the story runs, re-
adjustment of the capital stock of a
Eumher of the coal roads.
Erie second preferred stock is slated
for retirement, While in some manner
there are to be changes in the Lehigh

Dunmore Man Allowed His Suicide
Fathers Remains to Go to
Potter's Field.

Three weeks ago George Guzig, aged
so, and his son, Anton, aged 80, ar
rived in this country from Austria and
took quarters in a boarding house In
Dunmore. One week ago, today, the
father left the boarding house and
nothing was heard or seen of him until
Saturday morning, when he was found
hanging by thin leather belt from a
tree in Gypsy Grove.
The remains were given in charge of
Undertaken Golden. The undertaken

The striking car builders of the
Delaware Lackawanna and Western
Railroad company met yesterday af~
ternoon in Economy hall. and after
hearing the report of their delega te, who
was in New York the greater part of

not to return To work. The report of
their delegate was a full and explicit
one. and revealed the following state OF
affairs:
On Monday, President Truesdale was
waited upon by committee represent
ing the striking machinists and car

sisted of President James O'Conncll, OF

We're informed that a conference would

when the committee received a mes
sage at IL o'clock to the effect that
President Truesdale refused t o meet

REDEEMING STAMP

Documentary and proprietary stamps
can be redeemed only when presented
In quantities of 50 or more, face value.
Beer stamps can be redeemed in any
quantity.
In the matter of the rebate on cigar
and tobacco stamps, attached to un-
broken packages, the claim for rebate
not face value-must equal $40. The
reduction i'm tobacco stamps is 4-10
cents on each pound, and on cigar
stamps 60 cents per thousand. Based
on these reductions. a dealer would
have to show at least 416 pounds OF
stamped tobacco or 1900. stamped
cigars for any rebate. If his attached
tobacco and cigar stamps added to-
gether will call for $40 rebate he is
entitled TO the same, just as If cigars
or tobacco alone We're equivalent to
the minimum.
The inventory of stamped cigars and
tobacco must be made today, and the
claim for rebate must be in Washing
| ton within sixty days. The inventory
| can be made by any two disinterested
| citizens of the dealers selection. They
must not be employees or relatives or
| in any way interested in the dealers
| business.

Inc increase or lHUn over the preCen-
ing year is not as large as it natural
ly should have been. In anticipation
of the reduction in revenues which
goes into effect today, the big stamp
purchasers. particularly brewery and
cigar men have been buying close, the
latter coniining their purchases to
such stamps only as were needed To
release hurry-up orders.
BEER STAMPS.
The beer men bought $4,000 worth
less of stamps last month than they
did the corresponding month last year.
1T naturally should be Just the reverse.
of documentary stamps only S5,940.33
worth were purchased as against S13,-
.626i worth in June Of last year. In
proprietary stamps the purchases of
June. 1901, were $30774, as against
SCOTIA in June, 1900
What the war revenues amounted 10
can be judged from the fact that the
collections for the year ending June
30, 1885, were only 1894 ,9l545. In one
year they jumped to 81 81, 1888. The
year just closed showed a further in
crease of $32154.3l.
Collector Penman and his full force
were busy all of yesterday preparing
for the issue of the new series of
stamps. At midnight the office was
opened to accommodate brewers and
others who needed stamps for the
days business.
The new stamps did not arrive here
until 10 o'clock Saturday night. AS a
consequence they will not be dstrib-
uted in the Lock Haven and Easton
offices until some time this afternoon.
This will cause no end of embarrass-
ment to the brewers in those districts.
Some OF them, no doubt, bought close
during the week with a view of hav-
ing no old stamps on hand when the
cheaper ones We're on sale. These
brewers will not be able to do busi-
ness until tomorrow. unless they sue
ceeded yesterday in borrowing old
stamps from dealers who have some
left over. Even with this ,xpedient
they will he put to a hardship as old
stamps cost % cents on the barrel
more than the new ones, the old rate
being 81 with a 7ia per cent. discount
and the new rate Sl.60 nat
The Wilkes Barre office was sup
piled with the new stamps last even
ing. The Krantz brewery at Homes
dale had to have a man drive over
with the stamps needed for today's
business. He left here shortly after
midnight.
