COAL PRICES HIGH.
Coal Dealers Are Refusing Orders for
Future Delivery.

Future Delivery
: Coal at winter prices is the condition
of the local market, and with a protract-
ed strike In the Pennsylvania anthracite
district staring operators and dealers In
the face, there is small prospect that the
price will tumble one cent. The supply
is sufficient to fill immediate orders, but
no coal is being held for winter deliv-
cry nor are future orders being placed
on file. With the present supply con-
tingency Of a month or two could be
gotten over, but when that is done the
situation becomes serious. Hard coal is
now selling at $3.50 and Sc ton. with
the prospect of Q ten per cent. increase
on June LIST. .taf a ssEa
8 Local yards all have supplies on hand
that will fill orders for sixty or possibly
ninety days. The demand for anthracite
is not large here as in the North, and BY
5economizing the supply could be made
to tide over a protractedS strike AS to
winter delivery and prices there is no
doubt of some delay and a considerable
advance IN figures. as the operators will
cause the dealers, and through them the
public, to pay the cost of the strike
Should the strike extend to the btu
mirlous fields the situation here would be
serious, as the big factories. railroads
and other large consumers of soft coal
would be In jeopardy Of a complete sus-
pension of business.
The price OF bituminous coal will be
affected by the anthracite miners, strike.
for when the tier supply slackens the
consumers will have to devise means of
using soft coal and natura llys the opera
tors and dealers will take advantage OF
the demand and make money by adYanc,
ing prices. -
