 likely to be received Under the best of conditions, the city can hope for no more than 52,ss9 tons this year, that amount representing what was on hand the amount received during the strike period and the allotment, A shortage of 15,O00 tons is inevi- table, he points out In order to meet this shortage. dealers were instructed and agreed to furnish nothing but soft coa to buildings having janitor service,
 Low pricc--No Coal. When the question of buying coal at high prices from the "Independ- ents'' or waiting for the lower priced product Of the Companies came up, tho commission advised the former course. It was reasoned Mir, Christ explained, that IL was better to pay high price and get coal than fix a low price and have only the price, not the coal. Other cities, including Hartford, took an opposite view. They fixed and advertised the lower price but today they are practically with ohl tOdl, llt sdli. III iNNN ipi'e coal can be obtained, but at a high price With the likelihood of cold weather Mir Christ feels the proper stand has been taken.
 Shipping Westward.
 Under government orders, the Company" coal is being shipped westward so as to get 1t across the Great Lakes before they arc frozen over, making transportation impos- sible. After that time, the east will be taken care of. In this way, prac- tically nothing but Independent" coal is being received here and at the highest prices that the "Independ- ents" can obtain. The local dealers, al the suggestion Of the commission have paid and have on hand coal at these prices, hence the necessity for maintaining an SIS or s20 market here.
 High Prices Paid. Figures taken at eight of the 10 local yards show that between the ending of the strike and up to two weeks ago, 157 cars of coal were re- ceived of which 137 were of the 'bootleg" or Independent" coal. This means that but 20 cars were bought at the price that makes cheaper coal possible. Two dealers have been offer ing coal at SIS as result.
 No Profteering, He Says.
 Coal purchased since the strike has cost dealers between S15.19 and s1S.34 at the tracks, this being ex- elusive of the costs of unloading, screening and delivering. The war time costs of hauling coal, statistics compiled by the state show. was s4 a ton which the administrator claims indicates that local dealers cannot be accused of profiteering in that com modity. State Administrator Thomas Russell has stated that coal should shortly reach normalcy and then it will be necessary for dealers to get no more than s1 over last years price. With the April market at SIS, s1 is the price he feels can be fixed upon soon.
 The dealers at meeting yesterday, agreed to fix prices at SIS or soo for stove. egg and nut coal, and s1s.5o for mixture of either grade with pea coal Pea coal will sell for s16

LONDON is CHEERFUL
AT ELECTION RESULT.
Looks for Revival Of Activity
if Lausanne Farley
Succeeds.

London. Nov. 10.
With the elections practically over
only two results are yet TO be an
nounced-the stock market Is In a cheer
full and confident mood ana there is
every prospect of a considerable ex-
pansion in business before the end OF
the year. provided the reparations and
Near East questions do not develop un-
favorably
Capel Court had its own IAtle cleo
tion. The issue decided was whether
one-half OF the commission allowed to
banks should be reduced or not On
behalf of the banks 1t vas stated that
their attitude is unchanged. which is
taken to mean that they are willing to
accept one-third commission as sug-
gested. Warwick Smith former mem
ber of the committee, who advocated
the reduction from one-half to one
third, offered himself for reelection and
was returned by majority OF 6S4 in u
total poll Of 1904.
Argentine rail securities were ono OF
the most prominent features of strength
in the last week. but nearly all sec
tions made better showing than two
weeks ago, notably British gilt edge
securities. home rails. foreign bonds
German excepted. mines, rubbers and
industrials. although the business of the
latter was rather restricted by the cleo
tiQns.
The recovery in oils was due more
to bear covering following the Con-
servative success at the polls than to
any revival of speculative activity For
weeks professionals have been obliged
to operate on the "short" side owing
to the lack OF public support, and the
Improvement that has occurred repre-
sents a relatively small amount of busi-
ness.
In no section was the markets bear
coverings more In evidence than In
Mexican Eagles. A large Short ac-
count still exists on this side and at
the present time quotations move IN
sympathy with the value of the franc.
There is, however. nothing in the situa-
tion which suggests any improvement
in field conditions and dealers are still
of the opinion that Mexican Eagles. will
be obliged to make u reduction in 'divi-
dends.
The Lausanne conference will be tho
main factor affecting the markets TINS
week and provided satisfactory progress
is made there is every reason to look
for increased activity. for investors
have been treasured by the result or
the elections. and the promise Of
stable government should lead TO a
marked revival of commercial enter
prise. This will doubtless take the
form of new issues of capital. which in
many cases have been held up by the
election campaign.

FINANCIAL NEWS
AND COMMENT
Political Changes i'll United
States and Abroad Affect
Economic Outlook.
BIG EUROPEAN PROBLEMS
New Government Heads Are
Expected to Adopt Fresh
Measures for Solution.

with political shifts throughout the
world II is perhaps pertinent TO in
quire at this time what effect II any
these changes may be expected to have
from an economic standpoint. In this
was 4 political reversal which swept
into office a large number OF candi-
dates Of the Observation-Disclosures party
not enough perhaps to control the
legislative branch, but a group suf-
ficiently large TO do big things one
way or another.
In England Bonar Law at the head
OF the Conservative party won a
sweeping victory. In Italy Mussolini
has held very firm hand on the reins
of government. Germany's President
has asked Wilhelm Cuno TO form 4
new Cabinet. and he has accepted.
In each of these countries, except our
own. there are great economic problems
to be solved. and even in the United
States there are numberless difficult
ties which must be overcome before
the full measure of merited and ex-
pected prosperity can be realized. or
course, Germany's situation is the
worst. Herr Cuno probably has shoul-
dered the biggest burden OF any OF
the new figures in government. Vir-
tually bankrupt. Germany faces the
task of rehabilitating herself indus
trially. financially and socially, and it
is to the new Premier that the world
must look for any Improvement in that
country.
The New York herald., 1922-11-20
Herr Cuno's Big Task.

1t is a tremendous task and one
which easily might be called hopeless.
but Herr Cuno is a business man
whose ideas are sound and whose popu-
larity is such that he will have the
aid of all factions. If the new Pre-
mier can check the steady tendency
toward initiation in Germany, If he can
accomplish anything in the way of
procuring a modification of the repara-
tions terms, IL he can secure for his
country the large gold loan which she
must have at some time sor other. then
he will have gone a long way in the
accomplishment of his task.
The question in Italy to-day is not
one of ability of Benito AIussolini 70
control the Government but rather OF
the soundness and sufficiepcy of his
policies. Italy's plight is In no way
comparable TO that of Germany, but
Italys financial difficulties are many
and great, and Signor Mussolini will
find as time passes that he has great
need of all the admirable qualities
which he seems TO possess
The outstanding feature of the British
elections last week was a tremendous
gain made by the Labor party. AL
though the Labor party fell away shor;
OF gaining control of Britain's Parlia-
sment It did record gain OF sixty seats
and it demonstrated it's strength TO the
CONSERVATION of British political lead
ers. With the Conservatives in control
in Great Britain. more rapid strides to-
ward nounalcy can be discerned. Less
attention to international policies and
greater thought along the lines of eco-
nomic construction may be expected.
