Tlio Coal Trade.
Tho nntlifacito coal' traifd Is very quiet;
though tin Increase cf ordors for coal is now
reported. No chango of prices Is noted hero
orntNcw York, or indeed, at any of tho
chtof eoal centres of tho country. Tho fea
ture of tho coal trade, adherence lo prices,
is now ns firmly maintained as it has been
at any timo during tho present year. This
Is tho salvation not only of tho coal trado of
1880 but It li tlie Dllly sUro thing on which to
baso another remunerative coal year in 1881.
Tho producers of coal aro detcrmliiod to fix
tho prico of tlio fruits of their oin indus
tries. They say they cannot afford to put
coal into Uio ninrl.'ct nt less than so much
per ton, and will rcgulato their pioducllon
according to tho demand at those prices'
Consumers, especially manufacturing con
sumers, who cannot afford to pay tho prices
demanded for coal, will either stop their
manufactories or put up tho prices of tho
Iron or other things which their coal Is used
In manufacturing. Wo learn from nu ope
rator largely in tho coal trade, who has just
returned from New York nnd dii Interview
with leading partic3 in tho trado thcrej that
udhc'rcnej to circular prices was never ihoro
general nor moro determined than now.
Prices will not bo lower this year, though
they may bo materially higher as tho season
for production and transportation shortens.
Moro than fivo months of tho Current year
aro now passed, and tho production of coal
is moro than a million" of tons less than it
was to corresponding timo last year. Wo
havo not tllo comparative figures to data of
tho nmouiif of coal sent locompctilivo points
tliis arid last year, but havo enough to know-
that tho dlfi'eronco is materially greater than
tho conip.irtsoh of tbiilia'gej bSlow staled.
