cars and three more cars are expect

$3.50 per ton. Of course this is for
Purity and Harrisburg coal, two
very high grades of soft coal, which
have been handled by Ingvoldstad
G. Co. for years and have always
given the very best of satisfaction.
Evidently there will be some cheaper
kinds on the market.
No hard coal is on the local mar
ket yet. The hard coal miners went
back to work last week, though, and
it looks now as if hard coal will be
arriving before long.
