With a rather strong car supply
on both tho Monongahcla and Mo.

cned on Saturday and it was re-
ported that cargoes OF British coal
had this effect. With the G. & c.
embargo TO the west also, addition.
! al coal will be moved east, but this
will not tend to soften tho market
as much as the supply from North
ern West Virginia because OF the
variance IN freight rates.

ply tomorrow may again stiffen
the market.
