For vari ous reasons tbeir efforts ware unsuccessful and during the first five months of the receivership tin-re was increase of cash liabilities of $1,102,- 030. For the four months from July 1 to November 3U the decrease in excess of current liabilities has been $1,101, 194.25, and the decrease for the whole term of the receivership has beeu $59, 1(1 1 25. 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.
