The Coal Trade,
The Philadelphia Ledger, of the SOth
ult., commenting on tlio condition of
tho coal trade, says: The anthracite
coal trade season of 1885 is drawing ton
close. On Saturday the Delaware and
Hudson Canal suspended operations,
with complaints front tho boatmen of
the shortness and dullness of the sea
son. The New York State canals will
be closed to navigation to-night, on the
12th of December water will be drawn
from the canals of the Lehigh Naviga
tion Company; and the Schuylkill Canal
will wind up with its year's business
about the same date. Tho past week
has given strong admonition that winter
Is upon us, and soon navigation upon
the lakes, rivers and inland streams will
generally cease. Vessels have been
very scarce at Tort Richmond for tho
past several weeks, and those arriving
were immediately despatched with
cargoes of anthracite coal consigned to
Eastern and Sound ports and Southward.
Wo learn from a good source that a large
contract was taken at New York by a
Philadelphia company last weok at the
old price.
