On Wednesday next a meeting of the
Antlirscite Coal Operators' association
will be held in New York to discuss
measures for the batter protection of
the circular price. The open winter
has caused less of a demand for coal
than wus expected and n ntimbtr of the
operators are cutting prices. It is the
hope of the member of this association
to devise an CQQitsbls means of inet
ing the situation without sacrificing
the harmony which h.is prevailed hith
erto among its membership.

the various causes that, led up to the
bankruptcy of the company and the ap
pointment of receivers is given at

pay the most pressing liabilities
and to increase the earning ca
pacity of the property. For vari
ous reasons tbeir efforts ware
unsuccessful and during the first five

194.25, and the decrease for the whole
term of the receivership has beeu $59,

Hi NOB DjDOBTBUb NoTlis:
( ne day recently a big gon dola car con
taining twenty tons of coal was run into a
switch iu Allentown. Some person un
known chalked the following on the stile:
"Phis coal for the poor," aud the car was
soon empty.
Uovoruur McCorkle, Democrat, of West
Virginia, expresses tho views of muuy
when, in opposing the free coal clause in
the Wilson bill he says; ''If the spirit of
Democracy is for free trade, then treat all
alike; if uot, have some system about the
levying of revenuo duties."
An examination of the 20 iuch thick coal
vein leceutly discovered near Areola,
Montgomery county, has convinced John
and Daniel it. Hoylo und others interested
iu the "litid" that it is a rich vein with
millions of tons of coal in it, aud well
worth working.
A good many Philadelpblan affect to be
lieve Isaac L Bice has President Harris,
of the Heading, on the run."
Over 20D eniH of coal were carried over
the New York, New Haven uml Hartford
railroad iu a week, owing to terms made
with the I,eliiKh Valley road in regard to
extending its trail over the former line.
According to the Willces-barru Times,
tho coal companies In Foster township
have ell refused to pny the extra levy of
oue mil! rond tax to pay the indebtedness
of tho supervisors of 1HD2. What thu out
come will he no one seoms to know, hut it
is likely that suit will be eutured for the
recovery of the same.
The burning culm bank at Coloraiiie,
near Hnzletoti, which attracted so many
visitors last winter, auil eudaugered tho
inino at the time, Is still burning furiously
Two now steam shovels have been pur
chased by the conipitjy, which will be
used iu removing theb.iiulug bank.
