ANTHRACITE COAL
TO BE LOWER SOON
Quotations Received by Rich.
mond Dealers Show a
Marked Reduction,

Predictions made a few days ago are
beginning to be verified, and It Is now
evident that anthracite coal will shortly
come into Richmond In good quantity,
and will be sold at rate considerably
reduced. Ono dealer has just received a
quotation 80 cents per ton lower than
those prevailing n week ago, and others
are expecting similar or even a greater
drop. In the words OF we'll known
local merchant the worst is over. and
from now hence the situation will grad
ually but steadily improve.
Just when the falling off In prices will
begin and just how soon It will affect
Richmond cannot now be said but that
1t is coming everybody believes. Tho
weather Will have a good deal to do
with it. for the change will BIO retarded
II 1t gets severely cold again. But there
appears to be n decided ground for hope
for early relief and though the operators
will doubtless seek to keep things. Stift
and steady. the drop is bound to come.
1NTINfATION OF CHANGE.
AS yet formal notification OF the con-
dltion has not been received by but ono
local dealer, but several OF them have
gotten an intImatlon Of the coming
change. An agent for some Of the oper-
ators has suggested to ono or two OF
them that they may look for early de-
velopments.
Tho only dealer who has become prncti-
cally aware of tho down grade move
ment has received from one or the in
divdual operators In the Pennsylvania
fields quotations Of prices 20 cents lower
than heretofore. Not only this. this
dealer is encouraged to believe that there
will be another drop. and that anthra-
cite. very scarce for the past months,
will now begin to come In in pretty
good quantity, lie thinks that a very
short while viii see an easing up In
prices here.
VIEWS OF DEALERS.
Several dealers who were skepticaI a
few days ago when the news came from
the North that there would be a drop
In prices are now strong In tho belief
that the news ls correct. One or two
of them were seen yesterday and made
statements highly encouraging.
Mr.. a. D. Landcrkln. formerly presi-
dent Of the Coal Dealers Association, de-
clared his positive belief that tho worst
Is over. and that anthracite Is coming
down very shortly II tho weather does
not Interfere IIa is of opinion. how
ever. that the operators intend to hold
tho prices up as long Ms Is possible. Mr.,
Ianderkin thinks large quantities OF hard
coal will soon begin to come into tho
city,
Mr. s, VI. cottrell expressed pretty
much the Same opinion. ~ have not re.
ceived formal notifications said Mr.. Cot.
ytrell, hut am encouraged to believe
that the price of anthracite Will drop
very soon. and that the situation here
