Advance in Price.

Advance in Price,
London October 1.-THE critical condition Of the
French mining strike has caused considerable in
rush Of coal orders to the Tyne side today for France

1000 tons OF coal on the Tyne for the United States
Monday and II Is reported that another order for
5000 tons is In process Of negotiation canvass OF
the coal brokers' made by a representative Of the
Associated Press discounted the idea of any great ex
citement in the trade The representative Of the most
prominent anthracite firm the London coal exchange
said
There is really more newspaper talk than facts to
warrant the report of excitement here, 1t is true
that the American purchases of the last six weeks
have been abnormal, but the demand is abating. I
have closely watched the actual shipments and outside
of the ordinary trade, up to the middle of the present
week less than 100000 tons of all sorts of coal had
been shipped to America since the unusual demand
set in. OF course this does not include the regular
shipments TO Montreal Vancouver and other North
American ports where English coal has steady mar
ket There have been numerous inquiries and orders
have been booked for future delivery, but our New
York agent cables this week not to reserve any
coal on their account According to our information
from New York, the speculative purchasers have
rather oyerbought themselves already"

There is much talk OF encouraging local industries,
such cotton spinning and soap paper chocolate and
rope manufacturing. Regarding soap and paper IL is
argued by some that there would be danger in tho
fact that most of the material would have to be
imported. To manufacture cotton fabrics the labor
would have to be imported and perhaps high duties
would be required to protect the industry unless the
manufacturers aspired to export, The home market
would be too small to enable successful development
OF the industry, though 1t is said that good cotton
can be grown in Cuba
