SOME VIEWS OF THE ANTHRA-
CITE SITUATION.

While some degree of uncertainty Is
inevitable concerning the situation in
the anthracite district. sidelght OF
no little power is cast upon 1t in the
report of Mr. Truesdale. president of
the Delaware. Lackswama and West
ern Railroad Company NIr- Truesdale
points out that the great store OF
mined coal OF hand, coupled with the
sIackened sales resulting from the
warm weather. makes it. in effect, a
matter of no great concern 20 his com
pany whether or not the miners sus-
pend work during the tendency OF the
negotiations for a new wage scale.
In the past Mr.. Truesdale says work
was suspended during such negotia-
tions. But TO his company and equally
to the other great anthracite providing
companies. the prospect of such sus-
pension appears now TO be welcome,
rather than otherwise. For reasons
quite apparent on mere reference,
such as the saving of great outlay IN
wages. which is practically an invest
ment i'm coal for future sale, as well as
the cost of preparing and keeping Sc
cure such a further stock, If 1T were
accumulated, the companies are quite
willing that a strike. or suspension
of mining should take place.
The eXtraordinary-even marvellous
prosperity of the coal roads is at
this moment emphasized in the fact
that in year of general business de-
preston like 1908 the net earnings OF
one of them Appropriated nearly
40 per cent of its capital stock Others
are. relatively at least, il not actually.
in almost as enviable a position. The
situation as to the men Is perhaps also
the reflex of several years Of continu-
GUS. profitable, and satisfactory work.
What the result may be. under the
circumstances. Is a hazardous cOnjec-
ture. but both sides should surely real
ize. at least, that great prosperity Is
more certainly the rest of harmony
than OF dissension.
