a member Of the George y. Newton
Coal Company today declared that the
threat OF the coal miners was not giving
the large coal dealers here any concern.
Tho agreement now operative between
the miners and the mine owners does
not expire until April !, 1916 he pointed
out and II 1t is seen that the miners are
really serious great quantities of coal
can be stored away before that date
The particular aim OF the miners at the
present time Is TO perfect the three dls-
trict organizations having Jurisdiction
over the anthracite coal fields. 1t Is
planned to have every man and boy EN-
pIoyed In the mines join tho union In Or
der to present a united front when the
present agreement expires. The chief dif-
hculty. from the viewpoint OF the miners
in the last strike was that they were Inn
perfectly organized. Between now and
September 6. when a convention Is to be
held. a house-to-house canvass Of the
miners will be made to urge them TO join
the union.

CITY CARRIES COAL TO
NEWCASTLE DURING WAR

The mar has been brought TO the
doors Of the great Pennsylvania
coal fields.
So great has been the demand
for coal bv England and her Aliics
that Great Britain has not been
able TO maintain It's great export
trade to Spain, italy, France and
all South American countries.
The business of Supplying these
nations has notV, ds a resuit, come
to the PennsgLvania mines, and TO
the seaport Of the Commonwealth,
Philadelphia.
These comparative figures tell
their ogn story:
In the first three months of the
gear, NTH the WorEd practically
carrying stocks supplied >by the
Welsh mines, coal exports from
this city numbered f16,7S2 tons.
With the supplies exhausted and
Welsh operators anable TO meet
the demands, the exports leaped to
goo, $50 tons in the three months
ending June so.
For the first sip months Of the
current gear coal shipments totated
406, 1868 tons, against Sf6,S0S IN the
same period Of last year.
July promises to be the banner
month. For The first 90 days
total of 1850 tons were sent out
as compared NTH 49,744 tons in the
81 days of July, 1914.
Argentine Republic bought only
5740 tons in the first five months,
bat in June she received SS,S6&
toms from Pennsylvania mines.
Italy in the frat four months
took 15,O04 tons, and in May and
June the shipments tOtGled 22,96S
tons.
Spain purchased no coal here IN
the first four months, but ia Nay
and June her shipments amounted
to 2S,559 tons.
Shippers here believe that once
regular trade is established 'Oith
these countries foreigners will find
it difficult to get it back m the
future.
American coal has risen an price
for export. At the present rates
of So to SIS ton are quoted.
