Dealers Say That Their Expenses Have In
creased, Forcing Some Into insolvency.

Philadelphia. July 24.-The retail prices for
coal OF all kinds will be raised % cents ton in

sizes OF anthracite viii cost 81 a ton. pea coal
- - and smaller steam sizes So - to So 30
twenty-five cents is to be put btuminous
coal which now sells at about So % q short ton.
The increased was announced as the result of an
investigation made by a committee of the local
coal exchange. The report of the committee
says that the increase is recommended because
wages and salaries have been materially In
creased and other items of expense that enter
into the conduct Of the retail coal business have
also risen.
For instance" continues the report, oats
are now costing 90 cents bUshel, against
average cost of 40 cents bushel in 1903; wages
have been advanced - per cent: the cost Of
horses has advanced about 33 1-3 per cent, and
the cost of harness, horse shOeng. wagon re-
pairs and other items is from - 10 SO per cent
higher than formerly.
The committee declared that it also found that
the coal of recent years is not so we'll prepared
as formerly thereby increasing the cost of han
ding the dealer"
Furthermore. investigation revealed the fact.
according TO the report that many retail coal
merchants have been doing business at a loss

OFFICIALS INSPECTING ROAD.
Grade Crossings on Long Island System Re
ceiving Special Attention

A special train bearing President McCrea OF
the Pennsylvania Railroad. President Peters and
General Manager James a. McCrea Of the Long
Island road. and half a dozen directors of the
Pennsylvania. together with several railroad Elk
perts. left Long Island City yesterday for a
two DAYS tour Of the entire railroad system Of
Long Island. The trip is being made. it IS
understood. TO inspect the grade crossings of
the road. and incidentally to look into the
question Of extending the electric system the
different branches Of the lne.
The grade crossings on the Long Island sys-
TEN have increased fully 100 per cent within
the last two years the result Of booms in
real estate in all parts OF the island. Accidents
at these crossings have been increasing with
alarming rapidity. II is thought the one last
Sunday night when DR.. Edward J. Gallagher
was killed and Miss Madigan fatally injured al
a crossing near St Adams. FASTENED the in
spection. The railroad and the city together
have already spent more than S3,o0oeoo in
wiping out less than one hundred grade cross
inss in the Borough OF Brooklyn. II Is esu-
mated that 1t will require Sl2,no0oc0 and FIVE
years to do away with the two hundred or moro
still in Queens
