The Coat Trade.
Tbe anthracite coal trade for the past week
shows no material change front its condition
in previous weeks. There is tbe same scar
city of water at the mines that we had oc
casion to' notice last week. There has been
some rain, but as yet it has failed to furnish
the requisite supply to keep the mines In
full operation. Through nearly all the an
thracite coal regions the supply ol water is
abort, and scarcely to be bad except at points
where it can be pumped directly from tbe
riyer, in tbe Wilkesbarre region, bordering
the Susquehanna. This lack of water has
materially shortened the cot) supply and
quite relieved all necessity of any further
discussion of a limited eoai suspension.- But
nrSter.l
f
as a further intervention In that direction,
and to rcriiove all apprehetislod of an over
production ofcoal.we notice that the Schuly
klll Committee of the Coal Exchange havo,
In conformity with the recommendation of
President Arthur, ordered tbat a general
Suspension of business take place Monday.
The anthracite coal Interests havd agreed to
this stoppage of mining and shipping of coal,
to enable tbe employes In and about the
mines to join In the public tribute to the
memory of tbe late President of the United
States. In accordance with this notice thero
will be a suspension and holiday through
out, all the coal regious, over the several
ilnes of transportation, aud at the principle
offices of tho larger coal companies iu the
bhlef cities. The orders for coal are only to
a Irioderato extent, especially for the sever
al sizes of egg, bIovo and cbeetriul. The
shortening ef.cers from the Eastward is
nlost noticeable, and apprehension In sorrio
quarters is expressed lest this halting in or
ders now may have the effect of running
prices up on themselves1 later in the' year;
when there will bb a general demand lor
coal, and also a clamor to have it all deliv
ered at the same ntdhieht. While this wilt
punish thb negllgeht, who neglect supply
ing themselves When it lhay be bad, it will,
en thb other band, help coal operators, the
demand upon whom will bokefJt bp to the
end of tho year. The fear is that; with a
spurt of cold weather hoar the close of the
year, all who are short of coal will want
coal at onfc'uj.tihd, as a' rlatural consequence,
will have to pay correspondingly higher to
get it. The death of 1'resident Garfield has
thrown quite a gloom over almost alt kinds
of business, and theUoal business especially;
and thescaroity of coal supply has increas
ed the orders for coal, but, notwithstanding
this, tho stock of coal does not vary much
from week to week. For the larger sizes of
coal) sucli as Is used for the regular supplies
for the line trndo, foi-mills and furnaces; the
idea tbat prevailed a few weeks ago, of au
accumulation of stock, has quite passed
away. The Western demand is still very
great and the Supply of cars very small. It
ii though t probable that there will bo an
advance of ten cents in tolls next month.
Tbe present condition of the trade and its
general outlook continues to justify tbe be
lief previously expressed, tbat tho coal year
will be nin out without further suspension.
The total tonddge of anthracite coal froin
all (he regions for the week ending Sept. 1 7,
as reported by the several carrying compan
ies, amounted to 647,200 tons, against 630,-
394 Ions in the corresponding week last year,
an increase of 7806 tons. The total amount
of anthracite mined for the year is 19,372,-
tons against 15,649,441 tons for the same
period last year, an increase of 3,723,429
tons. Ledger, Monday .
