THE STATE BUYS COAL
FORTY.FOUR TONS RECEIVED AT
 THE CAPITOL.
Best Grade of Fuel Cost the Govern. ment $40 Delivered in the
 Bins--Loca1 Censumers .r. Are Paying e.

Citizens of Montgomery are the vic- tims of high coal prices. They are paying $S per ton for the first class domestic coal and are buying 1t from the local dealers.
 The State government, however, with the advantage of majesty and power on its side, is more fortunate than the individual citizen and Is paying nearly fifty per cent less than the citizen.
 This big difference in the prices of coal between, on the one hand, that purchased from the middle men and that from the fields, on the other hand, was discovered yesterday at the capitol.
 In the State Auditors office a bill was entered on the books for forty four tons of B1octon coal This whole consignment in the bins under the capitol building cost the State just $40 per ton.
 The State is under no contract with the coal dealers who shipped this carload to Montgomery. The arrange ment for purchasing coal may be said to be have ante-dated the soaring of prices lifted by local dealers. The purchases for the State are always made without standing or specific con- tracts and this last one was 50 made,
 Reports continue to come in from surrounding cities that coal is much cheaper than in Montgomery. People here have begun to inquire. why tne difference?

been vsry light for. two years on &C., count of high-priced. cotton. The present decline in the staple allows the mills 10 make the concessions which the buyers have been demanding before making contracts, so that an &C., tive business is expected t6 result.
 The treasurer of one of the best known corporations in Massachusetts stated today that he had made new prices for his mills product on the basis of a two-cent-a-pound drop in cotton, and this he thought is what will be done by the manufacturers gem eralIy. While this figures out some what higher cotton price than the one now quoted, 1t will be justified, 1t is claimed. by the higher prices that are expected to prevail later. For the manufacturers are not reckoning con- 1dent1y that cotton will be obtained at this weeks low price for any length of time. A large part of the crop has been marketed, and considerable of 1t has gone into consumption, for the rniddlemen had been buying very sparingly up to the time that the new crop was put on the market.
 Do the Mills Hold Hieh-Priced Cottons
 The amount of cotton bought at 10 cents a pound and upwards now held by New England mills Is not large, as their managers have never doubted that they would eventually be able to buy under this figure. As there was some considerable buying at the slump. the mills that had ten and eleven cent cotton on hand were able to make the average price of their holdings nine cents or whereabouts, the basis on which prices for goods will be made from now on.
 Fall Rivers Problem.
 The drop in cotton prices gives the Fall River manufacturers an excuse for making some concessions to their help if they are so disposed, without any change of attitude as regards the original contention. The mills there have bought comparatively little cot ton for soms months comparatively little cotton for some months past, so that they are in a good position to take advantage of the present low prices. But it is not admitted in Fall River that cheap cotton gives the mills there any advantage over those in other localities, while 1t Is contended that the cost of production cannot vary greatly in the sharp competition that they have to meet from other sections and that the price of cloth must de- pend upon cost of the raw material. This spirit being prevalent, it is not safe to predict any very great con- promise in wages at this time, though something may be done to set more of the machinery in motion.

Present Outlook.
 Boston Correspondence of New York
 Evening Post,
 New England cotton manufacturers have not lost their heads over the large cotton-crop estimates or over the slump in prices that followed the publication of the government esti- mate. They are inclined to be con Eervative as regards the price both of the staple itself. and of the finished materials. There are some mills, how ever. notably those in Fall River which are looking forward to getting thetr supplies of cotton at cents, and possibly less. but the great majority of mill men have no such expectations The market, they say. is pretty bare of goods, and supplies are needed to replenish stocks all along the line This will absorb large quantities of the raw material and, as in addition to this. it has been the experience of the past that when cotton is cheap the de- mand for cloth is large, an unusual amount of goods will. it is thought, be manufactured.
