    THE SCR ANTON TRIBUNE-MONDAY MORNING, JULY 2, 1894.
GENERAL NEWS
OF
The delay of theantbracito coal sales
agents la arriving at a decision la re
gard to the production for July arose
front the unwillingness' of certain
gents to" restrict the output. It whs
finally agreed that 3,000,000 tons coal J
be marketed, The advance ordered in
prices ii'supposed to have gone into ef
fect yesterday. Coal to tidewater was
advance IS cents. It was practically
acknowledged that all iuturesU . had
been cutting prices on competitive bus
ineas, and that the output in tlie latter
Weeks of the month had been larger
than the trade warranted. The vari
ous interests promised to cut off deliv
eries taken at May prices as soon in the
coal iu transit is delivered. Circulars
are already being prepared to that ef
fect. The Jane circular, which is ad
vance over the May circular of 13 cents
and 25 cents, will become operative.
The July circular, made last Friday,
will be used ns a leverage to sec a re
3 nne prices. None of the companies
expects to realize the July on July bus
iness, Lackawanna in June sold more
coul than during any corresponding
month in the history of tho company.
The same is true of Jersey Central.
This manes the total increase in coal
prices since May 1 about 40 cents par
ton on stove and douiestio siz93.
It was thought on Saturday that
number 2 colliery of the Delaware and
Hudson company, Jo'linT. Moonoyfore
man, would be in readiness to resume
operations today. This collierv bas
been inactive for a month during which
time it has been thoroughly overhauled
and repaired. By the erection of the
large shaft tower, a new pair of first
motion engines, and other like im
provements the capacity of the col
liery bas been greatly increased, hence
the output of this colliery will hereaf
ter be much larger than formerly.
The retnrns of the now railway track
laid in 1894 up to July 1. show an ag
sreeate of 405 miles. This is the low
est half year's record that has been re
ported for years. The total is 30 miles
below the dw mileage built in th
. first half of 18W, over 703 miles less
tb-'U in the corresponding period of
1892. and onlv a third of the track
built in the first bait of lS'Jl, .. ben
1.C10 miles were reported. Through
the comparisons with the work done in
u similar period of the previous years,
which were coor years for railroad
building, show plainly how treat the
decline bas been actually, yet the rec
ord may be regarded as very fair, if,
indeed, it is not to be looked at as an
unexpectedly good one, considerlug
the conditions iu other industrial Holds
that have existed for a year past. The
obvious explanation is to be found in
the location of the line). Aoexamia
ation of the length of the new lines
and the carts of the country where
they V have been built, makis it clear
why nearly 500 miles of railroad have
been constructed under sucn unfavor
able conditions.
According to a Bending dispatch
some apprehension has b-en created
nnionc employes of the Reading rail
road in that city by the recent dis
charge of some train sorvice employes.
They were simply sent for by Snpsriu-
tendent Bertolette and told that their
services were no longer required, no
reasons being given. They had been
working for the company from three to
nine years. Thedisobureed men admit
that they belong to the Brotherhood of
Railway Trainmen and they are of the
'opinion that they were discharged on
that account. The policy of the Read
ing Railroad company for some years
has been to employ no persons belong
ing to any union, but in SDite of this it
is said that a considerable number
have joined various railroad organiz i
tions. It is feared that other discharges
will follow.
' m
In the course of a speech iu the een-
ate the other day Mr. Call, of Florida.
qnoted some statistics especially per
tinent during tho progress of tho pres
ent ill-advised Debs railway strike. lie
said: "The total fund of debt of all
American railroads in the year 1982
amounted to $5,463,000,000. Font- and
one-half per cent, of this figure of gross
bonded indebtedness would amount to
245,000,000, whereas thes" .railroads
paid collectively in that year $'-332,000,
000 on their bonded indebtedness, or nn
average of 4 per cent., taking a favor
able year fur such comparisons, and
not one like the past year, during which
by default upon bonded interest, so
many American railways have been
thrown into receivers' hands. Doring
tne year laus seventy-live American
railroads, operatiug 25,000 miles and
having a gross bonded indebted
ness of 12.212,009,000 went into
receivers hands and have defaulted
on their principal payments, so that
this year's net returns from railroads
to bondholders will fall short of 4J per
cent, una wiu not attain a Signer aver
age than oi. xt is uieo to De remem
bered that those bonds which regularly
pay interest as it accruos sell at a
premium beyond the nominal value, i
thoroughly guaranteed "gilt-edged'
4 per cent, bond selling at a premium
of 23 per cent. The gross amounts of
capital stock of all Amerioan railroads
SIS
has more than doubled dnring the pst
twelve years and now amounts to $V
000,000,000. . The total dividends. paid
on the capital stock rf American rail
roads amounted in 1891 to $99,000,000
an In 1892 to $83,000,000. Two per
cent, on the total capitalization would
bs $100,000,000, and it is therefore evi
dent that the holders of stock in Amer
ican railways receive even in favorable
years little more than one and two
thirds of one per cent, interest on their
holdings."
Minor Industrial Notes:
It is not generally known that tho St.
Paul bas no Pullman cars on its system; it,
however, runs complete sleeping, drawing
room and dinning cars of Its own.
The Santa Fe road Is owned by Ameri
cans, Englishmen and foreigners gener
ally. It bas completed a scheme to pre

from the Buffalo Manufacturing company
and 1,000 from the Lebanon Manufactur
ing company.

t983,2u6; proportion of the year's fixed
charges (approximated), (541,063; earned
on stock, $363, 185.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
Stocks and Conds.
New York. June 39. This has been one
of the dullest and le ast interesting Satur
days at the Stock exchange for a long time

curtailed by the abseuco of orders for for
eizn account. The total sales were only
25.000 shares. Not a single stock ou the
list fluctuated more than M. per cent. The
general list declined X to U at the open
inif, but a rally quickly ensued aud the
market continued linn until near the lose,
when tho improvement was partially lost,
the market leaving off barely steady in
tone.

hut uu excellent thing It Is, from a
merely business point of view, to under
stand something about liuuinu nature! It
is easier mid inoro profltublo to cater to
tho fancy than to win the furor of sober
judgment, ynd shrewd umuufacturers
iruido themselves accordingly. For in-
stfinco, enn theit) be efiy doubt that ths
enticing form in which they are put up
sells half tho cosmetics that uro now on the
market? Ono maker sends out ills paste
or pomudo, or whatever it is, in tiny yel-
LAVISDKB IBKPON OOW.
low and brown earthen pots, with two
handles iiml u cover, and there Is no way
of getting these enchanting pots except by
buying the cosmetic. Another adopts an
lrreslstiljlo triangular bottlo ns a vehicle
for his vrarcs, mid to sec this bottlo is to
desire it so intensely that it is bought ut
dncc, necessarily with its contents. A
certain nmko of nail powder is put up in
liltlo diamond shaped boxes, mid It sells
not because the powder is so good, but be
cause tho noxes are so odd.
It is not cosmetic makers alono cither
who know the value of n taking outside to
their goods. Cherries preserved in a bulb
ous glass jnr, with i bale, command a high
er price than the same fruit in nn ordinary
screw can. German mustard !n curious
crockery jugs, with cars, is more attract
ive to the customer than German mustard
in bottles. Chlanti is much improved by
being bottled iu flanks netted with twisted
straw, and. how much of tho bewitchment
of champagne depends upon the silver foil
and the cork! Probably if it wero served
to us from a delf pitcher it would be no
more alluring tliuu sparkling cider.
Again, French deulers have a peculiar
knack for putting up dress patterns in
boxes that rondel's the materlul duubly at
tractive. A bund of trimming tastefully
folded across the fuoo of tho goods, some
paper laco and fastenings of tufleta v.bbon
nmke up eo pleasing u whule that it Is
bought out of hand. Our own dry iiods
dealers line the articles of muslin under
wear that thej; display with pink and blue
tissue paper, thereby securing purchasers
who would Hot have thought of buying if
the artful fashion of tho garments' expo
sure had not caught their fancy.
Therefore, as tho cyo so craves indul
gence, wo will offer it a suggestion for a
costume of lavender cropon. Tho skirt
and the slecvo puffs ore uccordion pluited.
