The Anthracite Coal Trade.'
Private adyiccs from New York to the
Wilkesbarre Record state (hut the antbra
cite coil iulerets,ulter mature deliberation,
have dec! led that the bait thing tu be done
at preseut for the trado is to order another
suspension. Empty cars are us scarce now
as they were a mouth ago, as consumers aro
ouly buying from band to mouth. Tho
natural consequence is a glut of fuel. The
suspension will bs for a week, beginning
Monday, Sapiembar 2'J, In reference to lha
report that President Sloan, ol the Delaware
Lackawanna and Western Road, Is ayerse
to further restriction at present, a gentle
man, who is map I'tioa to know, states
that the rumor was cartaiiily erroneous, us
none of the companies object to shutting
down; in lact, Mr. Sloan was oue of the
first to recommend that the mailer bead
justed. The combination is just as strong
aud as determied to maintain the present
sysicm of restriction as it ever was. and
there is no restlessness or desire to break
up the existing agreement on the part of
uuy of thu companies.
