week when SIX cars Of coal were
loaded.
No coal shipments were made 10
the piers Of either the Monongah
or Charleston divisions B. & o.
last week. No coal went to the
piers the previous week either, but
two weeks before, the end Of the
first week of the suspension. 1T3
cars Of coal were shipped to Curtis
Bay.
Eastern Shipments
Eastern coal shipped off the
Monongah Division B. & o, last
week consisted OF $3.50 carloads,
which was s6 cars more than the
previous week. More than the ad-
dttional tonnage TO the east is ac-
counted for in the heavier railroad
fuel loading, indicating that there
was no great amount OF general
commercial business.
Weekly Movement
Last week the coal movement
through the Grafton gateway on
the B. & o. showed loss Of two
cars. although general freight
showed an increase of 2S6 cars.
Last weeks figures were: Freight
moved cast. 2606 carloads OF which
914 cars were coal
Coke Tonnage OFF
Coke production on the Monon-
gah Division B. & o. last week,
aggregated 80 carloads or Just 81
per cent as much coke MS the nrs-
yious week on the division. tbs
reduction In coke production Is be.
lieved to be due TO thu limited coal
production In the ConnellsviIle
field which has affected the Dom
cstlc Coke Corporations plant In
Fairmont. Practically all OF the
coke that is being shipped off the
division is bound for tho west.
there having been As cars in that
direction against cars TO the
east. This would indicate that the
bulk Of this coal is being shipped
into the Youngstown steel belt or
Middle west mills.
