The coal men declare that they have

Europe is getting ready to put in a
large supply Of the fuel for fear Of a
possible shortage in the late winter.

operator yesterday, that England is
looking to America for a large supply
Of coal. The Welsh mining district
situation does not look any too promis.

fuel. Besides, 1t is the general belief
in America that coal is going to be

Recognizing The adyantages which.
this city possesses as a seaboard port

Philadelphia, are arranging to handle
large coal tonnage for coastwise and
export shipment through Baltimore.
Mr.. Rafetto, member Of the firm.
spent yesterday here looking after Ger.
tain details OF the business and II is
possible that a portion OF the tonnage
under the contracts, on which the
Philadelphia coal men are now figur.
ms, will begin TO move shortly. The
immediate tonnage 10 be handled will
total approximately $4,000 tons and
more business Is TO follow.
Fuel TO be shipped under the con.
tracts now pending will come from
West Virginia and from the firms
mines in Maryland.
Mr.. Rafetto says that the coal s!tua.
ton is improving where the domestic
trade is concerned, owing to the re-.
newcd activity in the industrial world.
