The coal trade continues in full tide of
prosperity; so lar ns we can .learn .nrdert
are plenty for tha ciitlro procfaet, nnd the
prospect of Mi nildllicnnl advance In Decem
ber Is grntifylngtn those who havo been to
long contemplating a balance on the wrong
side of their ledgers We think that about
fifty cents per Ion In addition lo present
prices Is as high as coul should go for the
noxt few months, and If twenty-five cents
of this was added in December and an addi
tional twcnly-Gvo liiJiinnary the trnilo could
bo kept moving regularly without any pros
ieetofa reduction of rales in the spring; and
there cun'Lono doubt Hint with such prices
veiy comfortable dividends rtmtd bo earned
by must and perhaps by all tho coul compa

nnd Iron Company Issued on Saturday Inst

recting them to takc nujiioro orders for Iho

pany to $1.71) per ton, as against $1.60 now
being received by tho Beading Kailrond
Company, nnd Uio canal freights and tolls
by tho Lehigh Navigation Company's canal
havu been advanced to $1.45, the taint ns is
now leeched by canal by the Philadelphia
and llcnding ltallmnd CoinpanywTho Le
high Vulley ltailrynd Company has nlso an
nounced nn advance in tolls from Munch
Chunk to Perth Atuboy for shipment, which
arc now 75 cents though wo should bo-glad
lo too them still higher. Thegeneial w!icy
of tlio Lehigh Valley lliiilrond Company in
the iiast has been to make tho tolls to Perth
Aiuboy forty ior cent of the price of eonl at
the latter place. As Lehigh coul is now
selling In New York ot un averago of about
tin co dollars and thirty cents, it will bo seen
that, at the low. rulo of eevenly-fivo cents
per ton, tho Lehigh operators nre making a
great deal of money find nre having nn ad
vauco over those of other regions. It is
prebaMo that, without injury to their iijieni
tors, tlio Lehigh Valley could take advan
tago of tho high prices of coal to get n better
rate of. tolls,. for tho impression is gaining
strength that Iho profits on mining are now
too largo in comparison with the low rate of
dividend of four per rent realized by the
shareholders. Lcdycr, Monday.
Peril In n Mining fit j-.
A short time ngo the miucofthe Dcl.iwnro
nnd Lackawanna Ituilrnad Company In
Scranton caved in, n recent letter from thnt
place gives us tho following particulars:
Tho mine extends from tho Lackawanna
river into the depths of Park Hill, on which
nre situated tho dwollingVf tho miners mid
their church. Tlio slojw.' extends into the
hill nearly a mill-, nnd chambers and gang
ways undermine the hill uui the ndjai-eiit
neighborhood in every direction. The e nye
occurred in the sliqi, Tlio men wero just
quitting work. They were walking toward
the shalt to be ruiseil to tho surface. Tho
concussion of the mine caused by tho sink
ing in of the roof forced large pieces of rock
and coul through the nir along tho slope
clear to tho top ofthe shall among the boys
working in tho breaker. Tlio miners work
ing in the slopo were hulled to the ground
and badly injured by tho Hying debris.
Henry Kvans was carried n hundred feet by
the gust of wind and thrown unconscious ut
tlio bottom of the shall, where tools and coul
covered him. He has not been able to work
since. Tlio miners" picks and shovels were
carried up tho sliul't into tho breaker. Half
a dozen miners' houses were directly over
the portion of the num.' that caved in. They
sunk ne.irlv to tho eaves. Tho roof that fell
formed tho bottom of many wells, and of
graws lu tlio ctiureti yard, iiicse uoc.inie
nt onco deep pits. Cieviees four feet widl
opened in tho earth from Iho foot of tho bile
to the summit. The earth kept on settling
furn day or two, und till danger was believed
to bo over. Workmen were set to removing
the. fallen rock nnd coal from the slojic.
The work was well advanced when, in Apiil
l,ist,at 3 Ojclock in tlio afternoon, the inmates
of Flitz Mucker's house in South Kynon
street, Park Hill, kit tho house gradually
sinking. They rushod out into tho stieet.
flic next instant Iho house sank with
crash to the upper windows. Mr, Mucker's
well nlso disappeared with Ins pig pen. A
part of.thattrcct sank two feet, and a crack
wide enough to receive a wagon opened in
the face of tho hill. Lust August nuothcr
cave occurred in tho samo mine, several
houses being almost swallowed up. These
sinkings wero all in different parts of tho
mine. Tho indications nro that a general
lull of the mino may be expected ut any
lime, and great alarm exists among the res
idents and projierty owners of that quarter.
The cuvo has extended lioni tho brickyard
ofthe Lackuwitnua Iruu and Coal Company
through South Kynou street, clear to the
Luckuwuniui utidllloomsburgitailroad track.

is such' that a cave in, us indicated with the
widening fissures, wjll be utlended with
great dcstruclinii of piopcrty. Tho llolluvuo
mine is one of the largest ill tho valley. At

of co.il was being eqieue'd. Tho loss of the
