Tbe Philadelphia Inquirer quotes the
"general superintended of one of the
biggest of the producing companies" as
saying: "The anthrasite coul trade is
in an exceedingly critical couditlon. It
' looks as though tbe trade would fall to
pieces owing to the great overproduc
tion during the months of June and
July, The stocks are so large and de
mand is so light that nothing short of
almost total restriction can save the
situation. The soft coal strike im
proved tbe demand at tbe begiuniug of
June, bnt tbe production has been en
tirely disproportionate to tbe wants of
, the trade since. Stocks at the several
shipping points are enormous and
dealers ars stocked up. At Chicago
and other western points we have a
supply wbloh we fear is greatly in ex
cess of onr needs, and is- there solely
because we must reach the west while
navigation is open. Western demand
is entirely for domestic purposes, nnd
tbe farmers who formerly burned
anthracite now burn wood. Many
burn twisted bay in stoves espe
cially constructed for that purpose.
Fully 80 per cent, of the anthracite
mined is for demestio use, aud hard
times seriously affect the trade. Peo
ple use one stove instead of -two and
sift the ashes. This phase is a very
serious one and it is being felt. No
immediate encouragement is to be ob
tained from tbe operation '.of tbe new
tariff act, even though industries start
up, for soft coal is used for manufac
turing purposes. Of course, if money
should become plentiful, more coul
will be used in the households, and we
will benefit later on. Bo far this month
our collieries have not worked more
than sixty hoars, and it will not be
possible to do any better dnring Sep
tember. Should there be any attempt
to operate extensively prices will break
and the trade will be in a cbaotio
state, and there is no knowing where
the end will be. Mind you, I am not
saying that this will happen, bnt it
looks very critical. We are bopeful
Vtbat all tbe prodnoers will see the ab
scntote necessity for restriction, and
then matters may right themselves."

Minor Industrial Notes;
The Enterprise Hosiery company, of
Hollidaystmrg, resumed operations Mon
day after nine months' idleness.
The work of grading for Van Wickle's
new railroad is about completed, and the
laying of the tracks will begin today.
The Valentine Iron company, at Bello
fonte, started their furnaces Monday after
several months' idleness. Employment
has been given again to a large number of
workmen.
Coxe Bros. & Co. have at last succeeded
In thkiDR tbe body of water from No. 8
slope. Work is progressing rapidly tow
ard putting it in shape for coal mining.
Themanways and mule way are all re
paired. Since the blunt in the coal trade as high
' as twenty-five and thirty cars have been
condemned daily at some of the South
tide collieries, near Hazleton. In order to
prepare this coal in a manner to suit the
dull market it has been necessary to pat
it through the breakers a second time.
Railway officials in the east are very
much Interested in tbe anullment pro
ceedings brought by tbt attorney-general
of Illinois agalust tbe Pullman company,
and are awaiting the outcome with ranch
concern'.' The opinion seems tobecener-
ally indulged in that the Pullman charter
will he revoKea ,
The introduction of the trolley railways
everywhere, .superseding borse power, has
already very materially increased the con
sumption of the small steam siees of Anth
racite, and, .while there is a plentiful
Bupply of pea, buckwheat and rice coal at
present, tnis orancn or. me coai traae is
growing rapidly.
One good evidence of business' upward
tendency Is tbe recent increase in good.
live industrial news.. For weeks it has
been duller than a cemetery in the an
thraoite coal trade no news, no new ac
tivities, nothing worthy of space in a
newspaper. Tns Tribune gladly bails
this sore sign of a revival. i1
For first six months of this year tbe re,
ceipts of bituminous coal at San Francisco
'were as follows! From Great Britain, 82,
, 1271 toasi from British Columbia, 860,843
INDUSTRIES
tons: from Japan, 8,847 tons;from Austra
lia, 45,270 tons; from China, 2,500 tons,
making a total of 836,831 tons, against
850, Via tons' a year ago. There were Hi,
64S tons of anthracite from Wales.
It is a good thing that the government
has at lost decided to use American coal on
American vessels. Heretofore, on the Pa-
olfle, British Columbia coal has been given
a deeided preference, and It has appeared
impossible to convince the naval authori
ties that any coal mined on this side of the
international boundary was as good for
steaming purposes as that from tbe other
side. . 1
Joseph rVhltebonse, the assistant outside
foreman at the Beading Coai and Iron
company's Shenandoah City oolliery, who
is chargtd with collecting wages from the
compuny on fictitious pay rolls, and who
disappeared last Monday, has been brought
to Shenandoah from Trenton. N. J. After
a hearing before Justice Williams he was
committed to jail In default of bail. There
are upward of forty distinct charges
against him.
The Lehigh Valley Railroad company,
which is in need Of passenger cars, recent
ly asked for bids for twenty-five coaches.
Several car building companies presented
estimates, but the company found that it
could build more satisfactory cars at its
South Easton shops and accordingly the
entire order has been placed there. This
insures steady worK ana run time to over
150 of the shop hands. It is possible that
the force will be increased.
FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
Btoeks and Bonds.
. New York, Ana. 28.-Stocks ruled lower
today. The decline was the result of real
ization by holders who were looking for a
bulge to follow the ending of tariff uncer.
tainty. Buyers were not numerous enough
to absorb tbe offerings aud a lower range
of quotations naturally followed. July
statements of the Reading and Pennsyl
vania, while satisfactory to a certain de
gree, failed to check the decline, which
was equal to per cent, in tbe usually
active railway issues.
Iu the Industrials, Distillers broke 1 to
18.V on tho failure of the company to ob
tniu the $5,000,000 required to release tbe
distilled spirits controlled by tbe concern,
subsequently there was a rally to 18 and
the stock closed at 11 a loss of tor tbe
day. American Sugar ranged from 111 to

day. Tne net losses for the day were

her, but two bottles Dr. King's New Dis

Florida St., San Francisco, suffered from a
dreadful cold, approaching Consumption,
tried without result everything else then
bought one bottle of Dr. King's New Dis
covery and in two weeks was cured. He
is naturally thankful. It is such results

THE COLORED HANDKERCHIEF.
It Is Still In Evidenee, aud Stationery I,
Mow Jtulnbuw Hued.
Colored handkerchiefs hold their own In
popular favor, although there are certain
prejudiced minds who consider that these
articles belong in the list of those which
should always be pure white, a list which
includes muslin underwear, nightdresses,
linen shirts, collars and cuffs, bedding and
table linen. The conservative class is in
the minority, however, and somo of th(
tinted handkerchiefs are really duinty and
pretty enough to convert tho most rigid
conventionalist. Squares of solid colored
linen lawn in blue, pink, lavender or yel

low are scalloped and embroidered with
Vthito. Others have a white middle, with
a broad hemstitched colored border, and
tho uamo is written across the cornor and
embroidered in silk or linen to match. In
puro white handkerchiefs there is an in
finite variety in sheer linen, with wido 01
narrow hemstitched borders, worked edges,
liico frills and lino Insertion. Those sur
rounded with delicate Valenciennes and
embroidered with whlto linen floss aro al
most tho prettiest of any shown, although
theroare beautiful ones, made of pineapple
cloth and worked elaborately with silk,
that look liko bits of frostwork.
Tho fancy for color has gone further
than handkerchiefs, unfortunately, and
has noticeably affected stationery, which
may bo seen in various strong tones ol
tan, bluo, green nnd brick red. It Is ex
tremely unpleasant to look at and requires
only the addition of somo sort of powerful
scent to bo in thoroughly consistent bad
tuste.
Among tho parasols there in nothing
particularly new. Tho straight handle
terminated by a bull is almost universal
this season, and the canopy top hug gone
quite out, but tho chiffon and lace puffs
and ruffles of several years past aro still
employed nnd aro very delicate and light.
Puro whlto and black nnd whlto are much
seen, as also aro sun umbrellas of
changcablo and fine checked silk. In
more expensive goods there aro lovely par
asols of white satin, in which are set sev
eral rows of whlto laee insertion, dimin
ishing in width as they approuch the cen
ter. Others have a heavy fall of lace
about the cd;e, headed by a puffing, the
fullness of which Is gathered over the ribs.
A PRETTY PARIS GOWN.
It Is of White Lawn nnd Green Velvet.
French and Yankee Fashions.
We ore fond of affirming in a dissatisfied
manner that European fashion papers and
fashion writers are superior to those in
America, as is everything else abroad, ac
cording to tho critics. Their pictures are
certainly better und tholr articles are well
expressed, but it is astonishing to how
largo an extent their professedly original
text is mude up of recommendations of
particular dressmakers, hairdressers, per
fumers and cosmetic manufacturers. If a
woman writes to a reputablo , American
publication for advice concerning her com-

plexlon or hair, she is given several bits ol
practical advice, with perhaps a harmless
proscription tacked on that sho can have
made up at any chemist's shop. On the
contrary, tho correspondents' column of a
French fashion paper Is a mere string ol
addresses of business firms whose merchan
dise is recommended by tho person having
charge of that department of tho joijrnul
over his signature. The French aro a
thrifty nation, and it may be reckoned that
a comfortablo income is netted from this
sort of Journalism, which cuts both ways.
It is a very good sort of schoine from a
financial point of view, but the American
publlo is better served, for our journal
ists aropuid at only one point on tho route
and have no temptation to fill up their al
lotted spaeo with advertisements of par
ticular articles. After all, it is a great
thing to be an American we all feel It
even when wo are foolish enough not to ad
mit it and it is best of all to be an Amer
ican woman, for she has tho advantage oi
living from infancy in an atmosphere ol
mental freedom such as tho women of no
other nation enjoy. No amount of Inter
expcrlenco counteracts tho early Influence
of prejudice and narrow views, and Amer
ican women can count upon themselves as
tholr best guides in spite of tho superior
educational advantages of their European
Bisters.
But we have wandered away from fash
ions, which purport to bo onr main ob
ject. We still look to Paris for them, and
the heart of Paris is the Btage. From that
standnrd authority is derived the costume
of which a sketch Is given. The skirt of
white lawn is trimmed with bands of em
broidered Insertion and an embroidered
flounce. The bodice Is of malchlte green
velvet, with a short, full basque. It has a
full vest of white silk muslin nnd velvet
rovers covered with guipure. The sleeves
reach to the elbow, and a black satin girdle
encircles tho waist. Judic Chollet.
