a,3;s / NJ IT.. Lee L. Malone. general manager
ssof the Fairmont Coal, Company! re-
turned last night from an extended
"trip east and when seen to-day by a
Representative Of the West virginian
I he talked quite freely concerning the
sprpspects for a big coal trade the
coming summer. In answer to an In
j squ!rye as to whether the mines would
start Mt full capacity after the fiji
siteentht OF May. according to reports
published some days ago. Mr.. Malone
said se7.e
I'VE have been anxious to start
shipments to the lakes since April
4 first bur have been prevented from
sdofngsso ON account OF the fact that
the furnace, people don't want to
bring ore own while they have p1en-
styt on hand. Trouble with vessel EN-.
57ployes early in the season tied up the
boats for time, also. but there are
strong prospects that the ore vessels
fssWlll 5moVe in the next few days. The
lore vessels In order to operate must
have a load each way. hence the ne
acessity OF our having to wait on the
ore shipments.
We have already shipped and stor-
&ed5 at Lorraine. Ohio. 50 1000 tons OF
coal on which we are paying a storage
n charge of seven !, and one-half cents
& q ton. However. we have chartered
vessels for the delivery OF 100000
tons OF coal to our docks in tha
4 Northwest and we do not have enough
coal on our docks by 10000 to fill con.
4 tracts which expire July first In ad.
dltion to the one million tons to our
docks in the Northwest. we have to
deliver 100000 tons to the copper
i regions of northern Michigan be.
tween now and the first OF November"
The requirements for the next
.WeekS' Mr.: Malone continued, aside
y from the lake shipments. will keep the
mines busy half time. We are greatly
disappointed that We can't commence
full shipments at once. but by the
Z last week in May be expect to swing
#nfetty well tul1 into line to the cupac.

Mr.. Malone thinks there is no doubt
a that the ore shipments will be large
when once the vessels start. and thar
ave shall have a very busy summer in
