MINE, MILL AXD RAILROAD.
The coal trade, says the Philadelphia
Record, has somewhat recovered from
the paralysis Into which it was thrown
several days ago by the report that
Coxe Bros. & Co. had announced a re
duction of 40 cents per ton, and that
other operators had promptly met the
cut. Prices were stated yesterday to be
more firm and steady, and dealers were
reported to be making inquiries and
buying some coal.
The coal trade generally does not take
much stock in the rumors to the effect
that Coxe Bros. & Co. are contemplat
ing a. sale of their Interests to Jersey
Central. A bit of unwritten history
he Philadelphia Times printed because
It has a bearing on this point is the fact
that at the time of the McLeod coal
combination negotiations for the sale
of the Coxe Bros.' Interests were carried
on for some time and foil through. It
was then proposed to divide up the
property, Reading, Lehigh Valley and
Jersey Central each taking one-third,
on the basis of $12,000,000 for the whole.
It failed, It Is said, owing to the objec
tion, of President Maxwell, of Jersey
Central, who thought the price was too
high. It is understood that Coxe Bros.
& Co. ask more for the property now
than they did two years ago.
Saward doesn't think much of the In-
dividual Operators' plan of battle to se
cure better tidewater rates. He re
gards it as "Impossible that prices
Bhall be higher than they are until there
is more honesty of purpose on the part
of the producers in carrying out an
Agreement. The market will take JuBt
about so much anthracite each year,
and in order that this may be sold at a
price which will be profitable to the pro
ducer and carrier It is necessary at
times to restrict the production. It is
an old story, that 'restriction' does not
restrict; but this Is only true where the
parties in Interest some of them at
least apparently satisfied with the re
sults obtained, exceed what has been
set down as their quota. A business of
such magnitude as the anthracite coal
trade, and which really Is in such few
hands as producers and carriers, should
be better managed. It Is only necessary
to apply the rules of common prudence
thereto, and the result would be a
steady demand and a remunerative
price." This, at least, Is easily said.
John Wanamaker, upon being asked
as to the truth of the report that a
number of Lehigh Valley stockholders
had Inaugurated a movement to "run"
him as a candidate for the presidency
of the company, replied: "It is news to
me. 1 know absolutely nothing about
any movement to place me at the head
of the Lehigh Valley. I have not been
approached by any stockholders that
I become a candidate for the office, and
the only reference I have ever heard
made to the subject has been in casual
conversation with people I have
chanced to meet on the street, who have
asked me why I did not take hold of
this or that or the other company. It
Is certainly a very remarkable thing
that whenever any people get It Into
their heads that there ought to be a
change in the management of any large
corporation they at once pitch upon me
as the man for the position, as though
I had no business to attend to, no huge
interests to occupy my time and noth
ing to do but look after other people's
affairs."
In reference to rumors as to. the; re
tirement of President Wilbur, of the
Lehigh Valley, the Lehigh Valley of
ficial announced that Mr, Wilbur has
now no thought of retiring from his
position at the -head of the company.
This is the truth, and it Is not likely
that there will be any change at the
election In January. Mr. Wilbur has
the support of the Packer estate, which
gives him control of the company.- A
year or so ago he hud serious thoughts
of retiring, but it has been well known
for months that he has given up all
thoughts of resigning.
Says the Philadelphia Stockholder:
"The Scranton and Plttston Traction
company, which has been operating
only three and one-half miles of road
during the summer, to Taylor and
Greenwood, has Just put In operation
two additional miles, to Moosic, and
next week will begin operating to
Avoca, which is an . additional two
miles. The contract has been given to
Stern & Silverman, of this city, to com
plete the road Into Plttston; this section
is now under construction, and will be
completed next month, forming the con
necting link In a chain of electric rail
ways in the Wyoming and Lackawanna
valleys comprising between ninety and
one hundred miles of track, and bring
ing into close commutation the nu
merous towns and villages with the
city of Scranton the third largest city
In Pennsylvania, and the metropolis of
the anthracite coal region. All railways
in that section are said to be doing a
relatively largo business, and the
Scranton and Plttston Is regarded as
equal in merit to any of them."
MINOR INDUSTRIAL NOTES:
The Jeddo, Highland and Oakdale col
lieries of G. B. Markle & Co. have
started to work nine hours per day.
The Reading reorganlzers are said to
have secured $4,000,000 of the $8,000,000
general mortgage 4s held in London.
A tunnel is being driven from No. 2
Highland, to No. 1, to strike a big vein
of coal that could not be reached other
wise. Lehigh Valley officials say that so far
as they know John Wanamaker has no
interest, pecuniary or otherwise. In the
stock of the company or Its affairs.
Much Interest attaches to the call for
a meeting of general passenger agents
of all western lines at Chicago next
Monday, when steps are expected to

. The Reading's .coal .tonnage for the
week ended Nov. 17, aggregated 3L'7,S59.
13 tons, an increase over the corres
ponding week in 1S93 of 25,6115.11. tons.
Tonnage for the year to that dute ag
gregated 11,879,035.11 tons, a decrease
over 1893 of 843,452.15 tons.
W. J. Bolach, who for the past five
years has had charge of the construc
tion of the great Jeddo tunnel, on Wed
nesday tendered his resignation, and
will leave at once for northern New
York, where he hus accepted a similar
position. Barney J. Goodwin has been
selected as his successor.
13. B. Ely, the general coal sales
agent for Coxe Bros. & Co., Is dnnger
ously ill at his home In New York city.
He was taken with an attack of heart
disease about a week ago, and at one
time his life was despaired of, but he
rallied again and the physicians now
have some hope fur his recovery.
For the past few days the shops Bt
Delano have been working full ten
hours In every department. Just how
long this order of things will continue
is not known. Reliable Information,
however, is to the effect that there Is
enough work on hand to run the shops
all winter on full time, without any
more being received.

New York, Nov. 22. Naturally after
yesterday's developments the stock
market opened excited and feverish. A
general advance of to per cent,
took place, the Grangers, Sugar and
Manhattan being most conspicuous in
this rise. Following this there was a
heavy selling movement In Northwest
and Sugar. Northwest was depressed
to 97 from 98. A cut In the price of
refined sugar was used to hammer
Sugar certificates, and on heavy trad
ing the price broke from 91 to 884.
Toward the close the market Improved
on statements by leading bankers that
the new loan would be taken care of.
It was also, ptated that the big New
York banks will furnish their custom
ers with the gold necessary for the new
loan, which it Is hoped will put an end
to the withdrawals from the treasury.
Prices moved up Vt to 1 per cent, from
the lowest point of the day and the mar
ket closed steady In tone. Net changes
show gains of (g'i for the usually ac
tive stocks.

TO our
W ashburn-Crosby Co. wish to assure tlieir many pat.
rons that they will this year hold to their usual custom
of milling STRICTLY OLD W1IKAT 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. VVashburn-Crosby Co. will take
no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully three
months to mature before grinding.
This careful attention to every detail of milling has
placed VVashburn-Crosby Co.'s flour far above other
brands.
