The Coal Trade for 18161
The fsw cold nights has omitted an increased de-
Candler coal fer householdiqposes, and the quan
loy s e nt this week reaches 4 28,561 12 tons, being an
-itacrease of about 1200 tans over last week's stupply.\
!The white ash regiens on the Lehigh, are also be
irming to:feel the effects of the stoppage of facto
ries. the supply having fallen off last week over
8000 tons from that quarter.;
Ttie increase over the shipments of last year to the
present period, it(o4ly about - 1 - 7E1,000 tons, in round
numbers. When we take l intn consideration the dL.
a:iinuation of the Supply for the lastkfe.w weeks, the
latenessof the shipping season, and the certainty
*tat the canal will- do no coal business this fall, we
feel convinced that all the coal that can be sent - to
Market will be required, and;• conseqUently, prices
;cannot recede any further this year. Consumers
abroad are therefore perfectly safe in securing their
winter's supply as soon as possible—by doing: so, the
-trade will be herielitted, and a Supply secured in •the
market. A • •
We are now , sending less weekly than we were
test year at this time, and the facilities of the Rail
;toad will hot permit a supply of niore th . an 1.200.000
'tons fro the region, duritig the year. Tile week
-11.15; supply from the Lehigh and Lackawana regions
is not 'greater at' present; than it was last year—so
'that the supply cannot be laigely increased for the
balance of the season this year.
. .
The retail price of-Coal has declined 25r.ents per ton
In Philadelphia. Vessels arc plenty again at Richmond,'
