Price Of Coal Expected To Rise

Chicago, June 3.-PeoDle who
have neglected warnings to lay in
their winter stock of coal, are due
for an unpleasant surprise. accord
ing to local distributors who say
prices will be advanced about $3.50
q ton as soon as the supply mined
previous to the strike is exhausted
Small increases in certain varie-
ties Of coal may be expected before
that time, it is said, but when the
consumer has to buy coal now be-
ing mined he will have to pay
much more. AS long as the present
supply holds out the price level
will remain comparatively steady.
Pocah0ntas and grades of coal
from nonunion fields are being
quoted at from so cents to $3.50
higher than on April /, when the
strike was called. While the reduc-
ton in freight rates is expected
to offset to some extent the in
creases, it was estimated that this
will amount to only 10 to 40 cents
a ton.
