Hitii intnous dealers have seen no improve ment In the market since n week ngn and have no definite Idea when buying will begin except when general business condition improves and fnctorics arc re opened. Philadelphia dealers sav the. spot market is dead and what buying Is done is of a hand-to-mouth nature. ublic titllilicR nnd the railroads lire the only chief buyers, while n few maniifnc tuiers nre giving small orders. In regnid to the nntluacite situation, one important dealer predicts that 00 per cent of his usual April trade will come this April. Another. W. R. Me Turk, says: "It In my belief Ihnt be tween 00 nnd 70 per cent of those who generally order in ilio spriug realize that the bottom has been reached and will place orders as usual. There is plenty ot coal now. ami mere win iu-. enough mined to supply the market in April. May nnd June. After that I anticipate transportation problems which will interfere.'' tAdvlses Against Wall "The public has just passed through a very mild winter, nnd the idea hccms to exist that next winter will be tlie same." it was said at the Anthracite Hurcau of Information "The buyer fonrets the winter of 1017. and if he holds off until next fall before placing hi order he will undoubtedly be eon fronted with delnvs in delivcrv and in creaks in price." Prices are said to be at the low point. Authraeitiv dealers contend that mining in now carried on ut a loss, nnd the gen ernl belief Is that an increase of twenty five or thirtv cents will come before fall. Entire lack of inteicst in the -market best describes the attitude of the coul man today, says Coal Age. The buyer has not vet come to n realizing sense of vnlues : and while many are beginning u sines, they are holding their ideos tn U"K lor quotations ,m ut.i. . iinn to the "level of the snot market nnd refuse to talk business for the year at figures the coal shipper thiuks are reasonable on contracts.
