COAL RATES
to- ADVANCE
RAILROADS CARRYING FUEL HAVE
AGREED ON A SHARP
INCREASE.

After April 18th the railroads Of
West Virginia WIN carry coal at bet.
ter proht than they have been doing
for the past period since the rates
were changed before, for on that date
a general and sharp advance in the
rates f,G carrying fuel from this State
to other points and also within the
State, will go into effect. The formal
announcement of the advance in rates
has been made and while all the de.
tails of the advance have not been
worked out 1t is expected that the rate
sheets for all the roads will have been
made UP in plenty of time before the
rates are to go into effect. and c. lies
of them placed in the hands OF the
coal shippers. as well as the Interstate
commerce commission.
The only road which has given out
anything regarding the new rates is
the Chesapeake and Ohio, which han.
dies coal from the southern part of the
State in what is known as the cincln.
natl district, which includes all that
territory in West Virginia along the
New river, from Huntington to the
Virgnia line. This road has announc.
ed that the advance in that district
for carrying coal out of the Kanawha
and the New river fields will amount
to 81 per ton on practically all grades.
1t Is also stated that all the other
railroads of the State have practically
agreed on rate of the same propor.
tions In all the other fields.
Abolish pifferentiaIs.
Information which has been received
is that beginning on the date mention.
ed all differentials arising from the
various grades of coal will be abolish.
ed and that after that date, the ratio
of freight will be the same on nut.
slack. run of mine, egg and lump coal.
This means that no matter what the
grade OF coal, in the future 1t will al,
be charged for at the same rate by the
railroads as far as carrying rates are
concerned.
This action on the part of the rail.
roads viii have the effect of adyanc.
ing tho rate for coal to the consumers
to considerable degree in many in.
stances. There are some of the larger
shippers who will stand for the ad.
vance in rates. and some of the middle
men will do the same, but the major.
ity of them will tack the ado. .tional
cost for shipping on when the coal is
purchased by the retailer and he will
be compelled to advance the price to
the consumer in order to make him.
self whole. IAN advance of a cent or
two per bushel as soon as the new
rates go into effect may be expected
by the domestic consumers in sections
where coal is used for fuel.
