April, Mar, June, October uud November --shipments were iu excess of those in tbo same month in 19.2; promotion the re maining six tuoutus fell, however, be low the corresponding psriod iu 1892. "The Wyoming region enntinaf iu the h ad in the mutter of tonnage, ship ments for eleven moutbs aggregating 21,79U,i;3a touB, or abfi'dt 55 per cent., au increase over the corresponding period in 1392 of over 1,000,000 tonu S'jipiueut from the Laliigh region for the same period InoresiM from 5,857, 405 tons iu 1892 to 6, 870, 50 J iu 1893. while tho Schuylkill ration decreased 239.059 ton to 11,312,299 The most important events of tne year in connec tion with the trade were the dissolu tion of McLeod's 'anthracite com I iu-, as it whs called; the agreement between the L thigh Valley Coal com pany nud individual operators, the purouaso by the Vauderbilt party of a controlling interest of Lacka'vatna stock, thus pruventing that road from coutiuniug its game of 'grab' in the market; the abrogation of the Cox Broe. contract with the Reading and tbt formation of the Anthracite Coal Operators' association for the protec tion mid benefit of individual opera tors. Cutting of prices was Indulged iu to a greater or kat extent during the year, but it at no time assumed threatening proportions and the leerou of harmonious action and co-operation taught by President McLeod is likely to bear more fruit as time passei. , Mr. McL?od strenuously insist.' among his friends that he has been in . no measure responsible for the sharp speculative drive which sent new Eng land to the boueyard and precipitaiod the recent dramatic recivership. For those sudden developments which wrecked his plans and spoiled nil bis bopl of a competing through line to B.'ttou and the north, Air. McLeod, according to Philadelphia advice, holds P. H. Prince, of Boston, repons i tile. The intimation is made by Mr. McLeod's frletil that this man played double game. The action of Mr. Prince is assigned to the fact that he was deprived ol the vice presidency of the company, when Mr. Odell wan sleeted to that position, with charge of the operating department. The fact that a large majority of tbo stock -holders approve the lease of tbe New York, New Euglaad aud Northern to tbe New England is taken by Mr. Mc Leod to indicate that they believe there is r.o other way to niaka their property valuable, aud, in eifact, is an indorsement of his manag'-meDt a management which, he declares, has been from the start iu tbe best interest of th security holdero. He is Inclined to regard the extension of the New England into New York, therefore, ae likely. Meanwhile the receivership may involve u good deul of litigation that might have been avoided. The board of direolors of the New York, Luke Erie and Western railroad revterduy iaiuod a circular to the h.ildere of the second consolidated mortgage bonds, suggesting a method by which funis necessary for better ment, expeiidituren and maturing ob ligations of the road may be secured Thy propose tocrtatea new mortgage, having 100 years to rut: and bearing In loiett at 5 per cent., into which will b merged the present fecund consolidated mortgage, the f united coupon bonds of 1&85, the prestnt income bond, tka present reorganization first lien bonds and the collateral trust bond. Drexel, Morgan it Co., of New York, and J. S Morgan e: Co.. of London, have agreed lo assiet the directors iu carrying out the plan. The new mortgage will cover the property -of the New York, Libit Erie and Western Railroad com pany, including ttu leasehold of the New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio rail way, and tue capital stock of the Cbi cogo and Erie Railroad company, thus giving it control of the entire llue to Chicago, nud will secure bonds limited in amount to $70,01)0,001). President Whitehead, of the New York, Pennsylvania nud Ohio, nay : "It la not true that Erie has modified the lease of th New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio. Erie is trying to modify it, uml we have no objection to having it modified, provided Erie will give us security for what via give up. Erie w.i ills us to give up $100,000 a year for nothinir. The trouble with Erie is that it owes too many harassing debts and, mist pay loo much to lawyers to stave them cff. It owes about eight millions of small debts. It ov8 o much lo director that it cannot pny our rental money. Therefore I propose to apply to the I'ourts again for the payment due ns. When I shall applv I cannot yetttate.' As to the Erie plnn, President White head said: "It in good eni.urh if the bondholders are willing to put up 90 oent lor tne new bond in the propor tion proposed. If they do not put np tho money, their bonds will fall to a much lower l'vel than they are became of tho continued danger of default aud foreclosure. Rectevers of th Mary. and and Penn sylvania Steel companies have notified crcil itora that the stockholders' ooid- mittevj will be unable to make a report or tne ccuuition or tue companies untij February, The delay is caused by in ability to obtain promptly all tbo sta tistics and information needed by tha committee to make a full and accurate report. There is little chanie, in the condi tion of the irou trade, although the large manufacturers are hopeful that, with the adreut ut the new year, busi ness will ihow some improveui iot.
