The Conl Trade.
Tho anthracito coal trade continues ex
tremely dull, and tho production slightly
increases from week to week. During tho
month of January this year the anthracito
and bituminous coals together havo increas
ed something over 70 per cent, on what
they were in corresponding month last year.
With 6ucJi a weight ns, this on tho market,
thero seems but ono way of relief, und that
is to lessen tho production of coal. The
next best thing to this, if operators will per
sist in going on with their work, is to hold
their conl firmly nt circular prices. The
general belief is Btill maintained that nil
tho anthracito coal mined in 1SS0 will bo a
dollar per ton moroorlcss. For manufac
turing purposes Iho difference of a dollar
p?r ton in fuol, when distributed nnd di
vided in tho cost of the manufactured mater
ial, is scarcely appreciable The market
for coal, therefore, in a great degree denends
with Iho operators themselves. If they de-
tcrmino to have remunerative prices for coal
they have but to fix them at tho propar
point und nlhcro to their circular fates.
When tho trade nnd'busincss of tho country
requiro mora manufjcturcs of iron tho re
quirement will bo duly met, nnd cannot be
without the Ireo use of coal. Those, there
fore, who may determine to proceed witli
coal mining havo only to settlowitli them
selves tho cost of carrying Llio coal piled. If
this point Cannot bo satisfactorily recon
ciled with Ihbmselveslet them call a halt in
production until the current market demand
CSlchcs up witli the supply. There need be
no serious difficulty with thd coal operators
if they will but consent to act in concert
npd iu harmony. Tho new year of 1880
started oil most encouragingly, and thcro
is no rcasou t'b donbl would have continued
active and good but for tho very unseason
able weather that irltcrposed wit'i llic in
coming of winter. Already there are indi
cations of ii demand for manufacturing sizes
of coal. Tho chief; if not only, choke iu
tiio coal market now is in tho sizes for do
mestic uses, stove coal, pea coal, etc., and
this is directly nltributablo to tho unusually
mild weather that has ruled tho greater
part of tho time of tho winter that lias pass
ed. Tho outlook for coal for tho rest of the
year, rightfully considered, is not necessar
ily discouraging. Tho Miners' Journal, in
its review of tho coal trade, joius us iu this
conclusion, and says, "It is evident now
that Iho production of the winter months is
quite sufficient for tho needs of so warm a
season, but ho lasting ill effects aro antici
pated, and it is a question whether all; nnd
more than ail, tin's surplus coal will not bo
called for at good prices beforo tho year is
six months old." If we should havo a
month or. six weeks of seasonable weather
honco to tho beginning of a lato spring we
will find every ten of coal used fo' house
hold purposes swept out of tho market and
nil kinds of coal iu good demand at satisfac
tory figures. Ledger, Monday.
For the week ending on tho Cth iiist.,
thcro wero 24,518 tons of coal transported
over tho L. & S. railroad, making a total for
the season of 319,738 tons, au increase of
52.3S3 tons cs compared with samo tlmo last
year:
--07,031 tons of conl were transported
over the Lehigh Volley railroad for the
week ending on the 7th inst.,n total of 772;
314 tons for the Mason to date, an incrcuso
of 201,111 tons as compared with samo time
last year.

Oh Sunday night a week as a daughter of
Abraham! Ablo, of Plalnficld township,
Northampton county, oged about seventeen
years, was returning from church, she met
witli a fearful experience. Sho left tho
rialnficld church in Company with several
othor ladles and proceeded homoward. Her
frionds ns they camo to tlieit homes or to
roads lending different directions said, "good
niglit' and gradually the company de
creased Until Miss: Ablo was left to Wend her
way Bortevvard alone, her last friend leav
ing her about a quarter of a milo from' her
father's htfuso. Sho 'had proceeded soma
distance when suddenly soven yourig men
sprang out front tho roadside and seized her.
Sho screamed for help and fought for her
honor with almost superhuman strength,
keeping at bay tho cntiro party of ruffians.
Her cln'hcs wero neatly nil torn from her
person and wero scattered in dlllercnt direc
tions. Her tormentors wero unrelenting in
their purposes and the unfortunate lady
found her strength failing rapidly owing to
her exertions and tho screaming for help
wliich sbo kept up continually. Frequent
ly sho was in the grasp ot tho villains who
used every Cndcavor to stop" her cries by
putting their hands over her mouth, by
choking her, nnd by threats. Sho managed
tlmo and again to freo herself nnd make n
break for tho clrclo whicli tho ruffians formed
about h cr; but it was without avail, and fi
nally, nearly overcome, nnd still slruggling
sho was thrown nnd rolled into tho mud.
They had nearly accomplished their purposo
when tho employees from Mr. Ablo'a farm,
who had iieard tho screams lor nid,appearcd
and tho ruffians beat a hasty retreat. The
farm liand3 wero astonished to find Miss
Able in this terriblo condition and did
everything to quiot her, but her ncrvci
were so unstrung that it required considera
ble timo for her to collect hefseif and tell
til e story of her tcrfiblo experience. Then
il was too lato to purauo her assailants. Sho
was wrapped up as well OS possible, the
mud removed from her faco and body, nnd
then sho was carried homo. Five of tho ac
cused have boon arrested.
