THE COAL TRADE.
The Dull Market-The ttrhaylltlll Squabble
. 0erllnla Prlcee-A Meet lea fthe Trade tew
day Qaatwtlon..
Tbe coal trade at the present time la iJnll and un
Varying, bo dull In fact tbat a general suspension In
all the southern regions on the part of the operators
la talked Of. Shouldthia movement be carried ont the
probabilities are that in place of bringing better times
and advanced rates, tbe effect will be to throw the
whole trade Into the hands of the Scranton and
Lackawanna Companies.
The trouble In Schuylkill is fast narrowing down
to a personal fight between the represeatatives of
the opposing sides. How long those who compose
the Bidea will uphold their representatives in the
personal conflict remains to be seen. These illus
trious personages appear to have laid all the ques-
tlons at issue aside for the present, and are now de
voting themselves to the exquisite amusement of
calling each other "liars," "fools," and other un
pleasant bnt harmless epithets. All this maybe
very well In Its way, bnt It dops very little towards
coming to an understanding between employers and
Boen, to the relief of both parties.
The Bchoylklll CanaL by a vote of the company ;
large enough to be decisive, Is now virtually leased I
to the Heading Railroad Compaay for a term of nine
hundred and ninety-nine years. By this means the
Reading Road has put itself In possession of another
power to aid it In becoming the great monopoly,
and an equal of the great New York company.
Tbat snch a change la to the best interests of the
Navigation Company, judging from the past year,
cannot be "onbted ; and If right management is used
by tbe leBsees, nothing but good can result to the
Uade and the worklngmen.
The Pennsylvania Coal Company having their
market in New York, have given notice that their
prices for coal for delivery, in July, will average
thirty cents per ton less than June rates. If higher
rates are what the striking men are looking for,
this is not a favorable symptom.
A private and select meeting of the coal trade of
Phllada., and of operators from the coal region, was
held this morning at the oftice of Messrs. Audenrled,
Norton A Co., No. 823 Walnut street, to take some
action on the present position of ail airs. As the
proceedings are mostly kept private for the present,
for various reasons, it has not yet transpired what
all was done. It is hoped, however, that some
movement of Importance was inaugurated, which
will eventually atlect tbe trade for the butter.
AtMauoh Chunk, during the week ending June
54, there were transported over both railroads ana
the canal, 100,971 09 tons, against 125,744 11 tons the
week previous being a decrease of 84,773 oa tons.
It is said that this great falling oif cannot so much
be accounted for by the Blackness of trade, as by
the fact that on last Friday a week a general meet
ing of the Wyoming region miners was held at
Wllkesbarre. As this place is some distance from
the homes of many of those who attended It, very
little work was done on Saturday, and consequently
tbe reduced tonnage of the week.
From Messrs. Ilammett, Neill & Co., No. 217
Walnut street, we have received the following cir
cular: i.
"We bave again to report tbe condition of the market
totally devoid of all change, tbe demand being steady and
well supplied at former quotations.
"A convention, composed of one delegate from each dis
trict of tbe Workingiuen's Benevolent Association, was
held in Schuylkill county on Thursday, when it was re
solved to adhere to tlie $3 basis of 1hM. This ends all hope
of a general resumption on next Monday, and it is not now
probable that any work will be done until after the Fourth
'"The' Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad
Company have announced that tbeir eighty-fourth auction
sale of fcv.uou tons of cool, from the Ickawanna regions, of
tbe usual sizes, deliverable at their depot, Klizabotbnort,
N. J., during the month of July, will take place on Wed
nesday, the 211th inst."

The Commissioner of Internal Revenue la in re
ceipt of a communication from Supervisor Tutton,
of the Easteru District of Pennsylvania and New
Jersey, bearing date June 24, stating that he is in
receiptor a letter irom Assessor itea, oi ine iniihii
liistrict of Pennsylvania, showing that the assess
ments In that district for the year ending April 80,
18G9, amounted to $44:s,28l-3. and for the year ending
April ao, 1870, $Wi,2l5-2-l. an increase of 137,934118.
The expenses ior assessment were apparently aoout
tne same ior ooin years, out wnen Air. rtea came
into otllce on 1st of May, 1869, the annual assscssment
was not nearly completed, ao that It waa necessary
for lnm to retain additional assistance ror aoout two
months, at an expense of about eight hundred dol
lars. On the 1st of May, 187U, the work wai nearly
completed, so that at least eight hundred dollars of
the expense for assessing for 1870 properly belongs
to tbe year 1809, which would show quite a respecta
ble decrease In the expense for 1870. Supervisor
Tutton also writes under the same date that he is In
receipt of a like statement from Assessor Rube of
the Sixth District of Pennsylvania, showing the
amount of assessments in that district for the year
ending April 80, 1869, to bave bcen$ol2,9U2,39,and ror
the year ending April 80, 1870, 1579,489,25, or an in

expenses for assessing were reduced. 12,951,43.
Important to Distillers. '
Deputy Commissioner Given has received a com
munication, in which it is stated tnat distillers, after
pressing the cider which is used in distillation from
the pomace, can get a material which produces
vinegar by dampening the pomace and pressing
again, making what they call water, which only re
quires to be fermented to make vinegar, and they
aesire to do so on the distilling premises.
In reply, he decides tnat tne act or July zo, lsns.
flection l'i, prohibits such business ; that is, It pro-
niDtts tue use oi a sun on anv premises wnere vine
gar is manufactured. But he sees no objection to
tbeir pressing such water cider from the petnaee at
the distillery, and the removal of the same before
fermentation takes place, or, in other words, before
the vinegar is actually manuracturea. -"

Washington, June 25. The following lathe con
cluding portion of the report of the Select Commit
tee on ttie'inemonai oi uavis iiaccn:
Accorninir to the testimonial of ex-Commerclal
Agent Smith, Hatch had been engaged in other
illicit trailic at Burbara. The Danish vessel, Rotto,
was consigned from St. Thomas to Hatch, at B.tra
bona, and was undoubtedly engaged In illicit tradlu,
in which Batch connived. 8he was seized, cou
demned, and Bold by the Dominican Government.
That a person so situated should make reclama
tion against tue Government he was thus offending
would seem to be singular, and from what is before
ua we cannot presume that Hotch had or has now
any ground for a claim of indemnification. If he
waa dainullied at all, a fact which It is not necessary
to deny, it waa his misfortune, growing out of hia
own fault, and without assuming to say that he can
establish iio just claim against the Government of
tne Republic of Dominica, we are constrained to say
that we are not able to see Its Justice, aud that at
any rate bis application to congress iu tnis Deiiair is
premature an j irregular.
We cannot but regard this unusual course aa an
attempt by Hatch, In making his alleged grlevauces
public, to prevent a fair consideration of the treaty
of annexation, to arouse unfounced prejudices
against it, and Anally, to del eat lc Hla course
evincea a want! of that Candor and circumspection
which should characterize every American citizen
abroad, in a matter in wblah his Govern
ment and country 'are concerned. - Loud
and passionate - clamors against individuals.
Blind surmises and personal pique that warp the
judgment, find induce a forgetrulnesa of matters of
fact, are net the means proper to tie exercised to
influence our iudgraeuta in matters of such grave
importance. The committee therefore recommend
that Hatch's petition be indefinitely postponed.
