COAL DEALERS PREDICT
SHARP BOOST IN PRICES
Both Soft and Hard Coal to Cost
Consumer From S1.5O to $500
More i'm Near Future.
RETAILERS JUSTIFY ADVANCE
Hold That Under the New Opera
tors Schedule Their Profits Will
BE Less Than When Coal Was
Sold at Much Lower Prices.

Coal prices TO tho consumer in
Richmond are due for sharp adj
vance. according to local coal deal
crs. Blame for this is placed largely
upon Increased costs in producing
and delivering coal from the mine
operator TO the dealer.
Based upon increases already CT
fectlve as the result Of the soft-coa!
miners wage advance and allowing
for a further raise in wages of 1873
per cent rs demanded by tho nacd-
coal miners, anthracite prices 10 the
Richmond consumer on the new price
schedule 10 b. furnished by the oper-
ators arc not considered enough by
some dealers.
The expected increase will alike
hit large users of coal-manufac-
turers. owners of office buildings and
apartments-and tho smaller con-
sumers. An average of from $3.50 to
81 a ton is expected.
Coal dealers here are awaiting the
announcement of the new schedule
Of railroad freight tariffs. which it
Is felt will have direct bearing on
retail coal prices.
John Il. Seatoa. Of ". +. Seaton s:
Sons. said yesterday that which Rich

upon a definite increase in the price
of their commodity, an advance OF
from 81 to SIZES Il ton at the mine is

Carroll Taylor. who is connected

an increase 10 the consumer of from
Sl.50 to S. a ton is Inevitable. The
