HARD COAL IS SCARCE
A Shortage Reported in Chicago
Prices Of Soft Coal
Go Up.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service.
Chicago, June 13.-There was wide
spread shortage Of coal, especially the
anthracite grades, in Chicago to-day. In
spite Of the fact that the mines are all
at work and the railroads are moving
the products as fast as possible, the sup
ply by no means equals the demand Deal
ers say the difficulty lies in the fact that
everyone is anxious to get the entire win
ter's supply of coal during the present
month. Experiences Of last winter have
made the people anxious.
The prices of soft coal are being driven
up by the shortage Of hard coal. The
prices on anthracite, it Is said, will stick
to the schedule arranged despite any
shortage. There will be an advance Of ID
cents a month per ton from now until
winter -.
