Tho Coal Trade
Tho anthracite coal trudo is in tho samo
unsettled condition that it has been reported
weekly for tho past month or two. Tho
rumors of efforts on tho part of tho coal pro
ducers to combine and control the market
aro frequent, nnd ono Is no sooner shown to
havo littlo or any truth in it than a now one,
or nn old ono in n new guise, is started to
take Its place, each succeeding nnotlicr in
rapid succession. Tho acknowledged fuels
of the trado are anomalous ami entirely in
explicable in any logical way. Tho demand
for coal is quito active, ami sales aro pretty
generally n good way ahead of delivery.
Ordinarily this condition of affairs would
stiffen and advance tho prices of coal In tho
opcu market, but the actual fact shows up to
the present generally lower prices. This in
dicates somo countervailing influence not
natural to tho trado itself. Higher prices
than arc now realized for fuel could bo had
for tho asking if tho market presents its
truo condition. Whenever buyers are weeks
in advance in purchasing their supply of
coal then liai come tho period precedent in
the market for an advance of prices. And
higher prices would now bo uncomplain
ingly paid. A good many persons in tho
trade nro of opinion that tho influences that
now tend to steadily sink prices on an active
demand for coal is traceable, to speculations
iu tho stocks of several of tho coal carrying
compaulcs, nnd'tho officers and managing
men of two or three of the New York com
panies aro being charged with going "long"
or selling " short" their own stocks. This, if
true, is criminal, though tho penally is not
specified in the code. It is easy to mako
charges, but it is difficult, except by sonic
such presumption as intimated, to account
fur the anomalous fact of declining prices
attending on an active demaud in tho mar
ket. There is probably a competition among
the carrying companies to keep up a full
tonnago ns against their rivals that would
induce low transportation charges, and so
keep down tho price of coal, but it is not
supiwsed that the losing prices on coal could
or would bo so long continued for such nn
object ns they havo been. Tho losses on coal
must, however, soon find nn end. Thcro nro
evidences of this latter fact daily moro ap
parent, nnd several prominent and influen
tial men, both in and out of the trade, during
tho last ten daye havo been exerting their
influenco with the soycral largo parties in
the trado to come to somo rational conclu
sions and do something that will savo the
trado from tho general bankruptcy that is
now threatened. Ledger, Monday.
OOIICUII.
General John A. Dix died at his residence
In New York city, at about 11 o'clock on
Tuesday night, iu the 81st year ot his ago.
This venerable man lias long been a promi
nent figure in Aineiicaii history, and ns sol
dier, lawyer, United States Senator, Cabinet
Minister, diplomat, Governor of a great Com
monwealth, officer of the richest, and most
iwwerful Church corporation in the country,
orator and author, his namo was a familiar
wont to his fellow-cilizcns iu all parts of the
United Stales,
About five weeks ngo General Dix was at
tacked by a painful disease. His spirits did
not desert him, ami ho entertained until'
very recently a strong belief in his early re.
covcry. A week ago last Saturday, howov.
er, while endeavoring to sit up iu bed, his
arm snpicii irom unuer nun, aim tue tall
backward which resulted, whilo it would
probably have been uniniwrUnt Intlio caso
of n younger man, wassullicient to fracture
his collar-bone. Tho shock and pain wero
too much fur his already sadly exhausted
system, nnd he lost nil liojio of recovery. Ho
began to sink rapidly, aud last Saturday
morning no uccamo unconscious, remaining
in that condition with but shoit intervals o:
Partial consciousness until his death. On
riday evening lie 6ent for Bishop Potter,
who remained with him fur somo time, and
ho also dictated a farewell message to be sent
by telegraph to his daughter, Mrs. Walsh
who lives in Julian. His other daughter,
Mrs. Blake, and his sou the Rev. Dr. Morgan
Dix, Rector ol Trinity Church, has been with
him almost constantly since his illness be
came alarming.
John Adams Dix was born at Boscawen,
N. II., July 24, 1798. During tho war of
1812-'15 he served ou Iho northern frontier,
with tho rank of Ensign and as Adjuitantof
a batallion. About lb23 ha commenced the
practice of the law, at Cooperstown, N. Y.,
and became identified with the Democratic
party. In 1830 he was appointed Adjutant
General of the state of New York, aud in
1833, Secretary of State and Superintendent
of Common Schools. In 1842, he was elected
to the Assembly, and in 1845 he was chosen
to fill u vacancy in tho United States Senate,
caused by tho election of Silas Wright as
Governor. On the slavery question ho was
considered the exponent of tho free boil sec
tion of tho Deinocrotio party in New York,
whose csmdidato he was lor Governor in
1848, but was defeated. Iu 1853 ho was up
jioiiited by President Picnw Assistant Treas
urer of the United States at New York, but
soon resigned. On Decamber 10. Howell
Cobb resigned his post as Secretary of the
Treasury in President Buchanan's Cabinet
to joiu the fortunes of his State -Georgia
in the secession movement, and on the 15th
of January, in 1801, General Dix was ap
luiutedlotho Secretary thiii. In this posi
tion it was his fortune lo issue an onler In
connection with which it impossible his nmo
is mom widely known than! from any -h.r
of his many public acts, viji"!f any on
attciniiU to haul down tho American flag,
shoot him on the spot."
Upon tho accession of Mr. Lincoln to tho
Presidency, Secretary Dlx was succeded In
tho Treasury Department by Hon. Salmon
P. Chase, and, at tho breaking out of the
civil war, the cx-Sccrctnry was npfiolnted
Major General In tho New York inllitin,and
on Mav 10, 1601. liowas commissioned Ma
jor Ocucral U. S. Volunteers. Four days
aiterwara a inaM meeting olcillzensol iNcw
York was held in Union Square, ot which
General Dix presided, to express thoir de
termination to Uphold tho authority of tho
Government. Tho meeting was opened with
prayer by tho venerable Dr. Spear of the
BrickChurch,nttcrvvhlch General Dix mado
an nddivss, tho closing sentenco of which
created intense enthusiasm. Ho said t "Let
us remember that nothing could bo so dis
astrous, so humiliating nnd so disreputable
to us an ns to see tuo common uovcrnmcnt
overthrown, or its lecitimalo authority suc
cessfully resisted. Let us then tally with
ono heart to its support. I believe it will
act with all the moderation and forebcaranco
consistent with the preservation of the great

left but to acqulcse in its surrender lo revo
lutionary leaders, or to give It tho means it
needs for defense, for self-nreservatlon. nnd
for tho asseition of Its authority, holding it
responsible for their legitimate use. Fefiow
citizens, wo stand before tho statuo of tho
Father of his country. Tho Hog of tho Un
ion which floats over it hung abuvo him
when ho presided over tho Convention by
which tho Constitution was framed. The
great work of his Ufa has been rejected, and
tho banner by which his labors were oonso-
crntcd has been trampled iu tho dust. If
mo inanimate bronzoin wiucli tho sculptor
lias shaped his imago could bo changed to
tho living form which led the armies of the
revolution to victory, ho would command
us i n the name of tho hosts and patriots and
political inaityrs who havo gono before, to
sttlke for the defcusoof tho Union and the
Constitution."
Soon after reccivinz his commission Gen
eral Dix was placed in the command of tho
DenarlmcntoI'Marylaiid, with licadquniters
ut Baltimore. In June 1802 hewas trans
ferred to Forlrcs Monroe. It July 1803 ho
was stationed in New York, and was milita
ry commander during tlio draft riots. Ho
commanded the department of tho East dur
ing 1804-5. In September 1SC0 ho waB ap
pointed U. S, Minister lo Franco, and held
tho position until 1S0S, when ho resigned
and returned to Now York. In 1872 he was
nominated by the republicans for Governor
of New York nnd elected by n verv largo
majority. Ho was renominated In 1874, but
was itclcatcd by Mr. Tilden, and since then
ho has not held any prominent political Pos
ition.
General Dix being In liossessioii of nn am-
plo estate, has always devoted much atten
tion to literature and art. For some timo
ho conducted the Xorlhcni Linht. a literary
journal published at Albany; nnd he was
iur many years ono oi mo regents oi inc
University of tho State of New Vork. a pos
ition which he resigned in 1878, owing to
advanced ago and more pressing occupations.
Ho was tho author of avcrv fiuo-traiislation
of tho old Latin hymn, "Dies Irre," "Re
sources of tho City of Now York" 1 837 j "De
cisions ot the Superintendent of Common
Schools of Noiv York" 1837: " A winter in
Madeira" 1S51 ; "A summer in Spain and
Florence," 1855; nnd two volumes of
"Speeches," 1804. For several vcars past
ho has been Registrar of the corporation of
Trinity church, of which his son tho Ilcv.
Dr. Morgan Dix is tho rector, and in this
position lias had chargo of tho vast real es
tate and other temporal interests of that
wealthy corporation. Ho was re-elcetcd to
the position of registrar at tlio Easter election
held last week.
