MINE, MILL AXD RAILROAD.
The Philadelphia Press yesterday
(aid: "A movement la uu foot to se
cure the election of John Wanamaker
an president of the Lehigh Valley Kail
road company at the annual meeting of
the company which will be held on the
third Tuesday in January. For some
time there has been considerable dl
satlsfactlon among the stockholders of
the Lehigh Valley Railroad company in
lesard to the present management. It
is contended that the affairs of the com
pany have been mismanaged and that
from a dividend paying company it In
now being run on n non-dividend basis,
All this it is said, Is wrong, as the com
pany Is as good now as it was years ago
and It should be showing fair results.
The opposition to President Wilbur and
the present management Is not only In
this city, but it is spread ull over the
line, especlaly where any quantity of
the stock Is held. It is claimed that the
management, with its conservatism, has
practically ruined this valuable prop
erty and it will take some time to get
It into the condition In which It once
was. While Mr. Wanamaker will not
talk on the subject It is known that a
number of large stockholders In this
city are going to make a fight for him
and they are confident of winning. If
they should be successful there will be
a complete change In the reorganization
of the company. The election of Mr.
Wanamaker means a new board of di
rectors, all of whom will be In harmony
with his Ideas. Previous to the last elec
tion It was thought that it was an Im
possibility to defeat the present offi
cers, as they were said to control a ma
jority or the stock, but the total amount
of stock voted was only a little over
330,000 shares, of which about 160,000
were credited to the Packer estate.
Pince then it has been thought that, if
a fight was made In earnest, there was
8ome Bhow of success. The total num
ber of shares of stock of this company
is a little over 800,000, so It can be seen
that the Wilbur party did not vote one
half of the Btock at the last election.
It Is said that if Mr. Wanamaker should
be elected his chief llentenant will be
J. Lowrle Bell, who was his Becond as
sistant postmaster general. Mr. Hell is
a well known railroad man, standing at
the top among the traffic managers. He
is conversant with the Lehigh Valley In
terests, and it Is generally conceded
that he would be of great service to the
company. While the election Is two
months distant there has already been
considerable canvusslng done In work
ing up the demand for a new president,
as well as other officers of the com
pany." A New York special yesterday said:
''Investigation of conflicting rumors re
garding coal prices establishes the fact
that while the companies which ship
anthracite coal have not put out a new
circular for the "line trade," a number
of them have reduced their prices on
that class of business about 75 cents
B ton, or to the basis of tidewater prices.
This 1s the result which the Anthracite
Coal Operators' association sought to
bring about by means of their request
to the Lehigh Valley company. C'oxe,
HroH. & Co., who are the leaders in the
movement, claim that, owing to the
sickness of their manager, E. B. Ely,
they have not begun the new policy.
There is evidence that Philadelphia has
been selected as the trade center in
which the battle In lo be fought, and
that a number of line ports on the-Jer-fey
Central and Lehigh Valley have
been chosen for the new rates. The
beurlng of this action on the trade de
pends upon the extent to which It Is
carried on. If It becomes universal, It
will mean that the anthracite interests
will secure 75 cents a ton on 70 per
cent, of their output that amount at
present going to line points. The ac
tion, has also affected the line trade ad
versely. Another factor of importance
In its bearing on the situation is the
prospective close of lake navigation,
which will occur some time this week,
shutting off Western shipments and
causing the overflow of production to
seek Eastern channels. The various
Bhipplng Interests-, who at first were
very much inclined to ignore the stand
taken by independent operators, now
admit that the situation has grown
much more serious because of the cut,
and that some Immediate action mutt
be taken to prevent demoralization."
In partial contradiction of this, the
Philadelphia Inquirer yesterday said:
"Coxe Bros. & Co., and the Pennsyl
vania railroad have restored the prices
of coal to their old figures. They are
quoting egg and chestnut at about $2.15
and stove at about $2.25. Coxe Bros,
declare they did not take a single order
at the $2 basis. Until E. Brock Ely,
the general manager of the Coxe Inter
est, recovers from an attack of illness
that now confines him to his room it is
Improbable that any sales will be made
below' the present figures. The Read
ing, Lehigh Valley and Lehigh Naviga
tion companies have all resolved not to
lower prices, and they have induced
the Pennsylvania railroad authorities
to withdraw their cut prices also. The
local situation seems to be held In abev-
nnce until some step shall be taken by
Coxe Bros. The Pennsylvania people
say they are ready to sell coal as low as
anyone, but do not Seem ready to' take
the Initiative in cutting prices."
The same Journal In its financial
column said: "The Inactivity of the
anthracite stocks seems to be the re
sult of efforts to patch up the difficul
ties caused by the determination of the
FOR FIVE HUNDRED YEARS
and over, the whole world has been
coming to Carlsbad to be cured. t)is
ordcrs of the stomach, of the liver, of
the bowels, of the kidneys 'and blad
der, gout, rheumatism, diabetes, obe
sity all have been sent to Carlsbad.
Here is the very same remedy now,
right at your own door the Carlsbad
Sprudel Salt, the water solidified and
put into powder form at the spring.
You need it for constipation, for iudi.

individual operators td Invade tide
water . markets. The Pennsylvania
railroad, which was prepared to meet
any cut that might be made, has with
drawn Its $2 circular, and Coxe Bros.
are resting on their oars because of the
illness of Mr. Ely, their manager. For
the present the trouble has been ad
Justed, but it has been bridged over,
not remedied. The trade is In a fearful
state of disorder, dealers are cancelling
orders on all sides and no one will buy
until the situation is clear. The fact
that the individuals are not making an
aggressive fight, that all the companies
in the combination have refused to
make cuts and that the Pennsylvania
railroad has been Induced to withdraw
for the present afford ground for the
hope that the whole matter will be sat
isfactorily arranged. How this will be
done does not appear, but the simple
fact that the situation is becoming no
worse Is sufficient to account for the
comparative steadiness of the anthra
cite stocks." Thus It will be seen that
according to the able metropolitan
'newspapers the anthracite situation, to
borrow a suggestive slang phrase, is
almost as clear as mud. One thing,
however, Is fully apparent. The rail
road companies are beginning at last
to learn that the individual operators
are not to be trifled with indefinitely.
MINOR INDUSTRIAL NOTES.
New rollers, to reduce the size of coal
are be-lng placed in the No. 1 Honey
Brook washery operated by the Bulack
Coal company.
The slopes of the Coleralne colliery
are being worked to their utmost ca
pacity, in order to keep the improved
breaker going.
A Philadelphia gentleman who has
been opposed to President Wilbur, of
the Lehigh Valley, admitted yesterday
that his successor could only be elected
with his Mr. Wilbur's consent.
The report which has gained circula
tion that the Delaware, Susquehanna
and Schuylkill has been leased to the
Central Railroad of New Jersey is dis
credited in Philadelphia and denied by
Coxe Bros. & Co.
General Passenger Agent Lee, of the
Lehigh Valley railroad, is preparing
some very handsome calendars for dis
tribution as souvenirs. The cover con
tains picturesque views along the Le
high Valley route.
In Boston It Is said that the Lehigh
Valley Coal company has chartered a
large barge holding 3,000 tons of coal,
which It is distributing in small quan
tities at the rate of $4 per ton, a reduc
tion of fifty cents.
The Hallstead colliery, of the Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western com
pany, ut Duryea, which was flooded In
September hist, still contains much wat

There has been a little delay now and
then, and owing to the rains water flow

By the United Press.
New York, Nov. 21. The overshadow
ing feature for the speculation at the
stock exchange today was the Chicago,
Burlington and Quincy divided matter.
There was quite a bullish feeling pre
vailing throughout the morning prices
moved up Vt to V2 for the leaders.
American sugar, the grangers, Louis
ville and Nashville, Missouri Pacific,
Reading and Western Union ull were In
the strong list. Near midday private
reports were received that Quincy had
declared the usual quarterly dividend
of 114 per cent. On this there was a
rush to cover and brokers bought a big
line of block. A feeling of hesitancy
was then noted, due to another dis
patch that the dividend had not been
declared as yet, and thut the directors
were still In conference. Then came
the official announcement that the divi
dend had been reduced to 1 per cent, pet
quarter. This led to the biggest selling
movement in the stock for a long time
under which the price yielded from 74
to 70"g. The other grangers were also
under the hammer und fell in price.
The street was Indignant at the meth
ods employed by those handling the
news of the Burlington dividend and
it is expected that the matter will not
be dropped until a thorough investiga
tion Is had. Sugar was the only stock
on the list that refused to be influenced
by the demoralized Burlington dealers.
In the early trading the stock was
marked up lii to 91. When the Grang
ers broke there was a recession to 90,
but in the latit half hour the stock sold
up to 91. Its strength steadied he
general market for a time. Near the
close, however, there were renewed
liquidations in Quincy and the stock
broke to 70. The closing was feverish.
The total sales were 287,500 shares.

TO our patrons:
Washburn-Crosby Co, wish to assure their many pat.
rous that they will this year hold to their usual custom
pf milling S1R1CTLY OU WHEAT until the new crop
Is fully cured. New wheat is now upon the market, and
owing to the excessively dry weather many millers are
of the opinion that it is already cured, and in proper
condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby Co. will take
no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully three
months to mature before grinding.
This careful attention to everv detail of milling has
placed Washburn-Crosby Co.'s flour far above other
brands.
