    THE KCRANTON TRIBUNE-TUESDAY MORiaN'O. XOVEMBETl 27, 1894.
Industrial and
MINE, MILL AND RAILROAD.
Two years ago, says the Record, Sen-,
ft tor M. B. Williams leased the Thuron
colliery property near Pottsvllle after
It had been Idle for fifty years. The
slope has since been opened and the
coal proves to be of excellent quality
and thickness. A nivr company has
been recently formed and Is known as
the Williams Coal company of Potts
vllle. The members met on Saturday
and elected the following officers:
President, Morgan B. Williams; general
superintendent, William T. Smyth; di
rectors, Morgan B. Williams, W. T.
Smyth, W. S. McLean, Ben Williams,
John H. Wlllams. All the directors are
from Wllkes-Barre with the exception
of J. H. Williams, who resides at Scran
ton. The colliery will soon be In opera
tion. The anthracite sules agents are to
meet In New York today and will en
deavor to restrict the tonnage for the
month of December. "That they will
order a restriction Is quite probable,"
thinks the Philadelphia Inquirer, "but
that their directions will be carried out
Is not so certain. But whatever ac
tion they take there is no certainty
that prices can be advanced. Coxe
Bros., the Erie, Ontario and Western
and Susquehanna and Western, be
sides the individual operators, will not
restrict unless they have to and some
of them cannot be forced to restrict.
Moreover, the season of the year Is
at hand when the small producer con
trols the market. The trade season Is
now'over, the demand for coal will be
light, and the small operator will fix
the. price. In the summer time when
the production Is very heavy the small
producer Is not an important fuctor.
The demand for coal Is then so large
that It matters comparatively little
what the small producer does, as he Is
not importunt enough to make the mar
ket.' But In the winter time he ean
make the large companies follow him.
With this unruly element In exlsfence
the action of the sales agents will have
les weight than it would have had two
or three months ago.'
MINOR INDUSTRIAL NOTES: .
The Reading Iron company Is pre
paring to start another of its large blast
furnaces.
Sules are now being made In New
York at $2.25 for stove coal, so it is said,
which Is simply giving the fuel away.
Lehigh Valley officials decline to suy
what attitude they will assume if de
mand is made for a list of the com
pany's stockholders. t
Railroad accident In October Includ
ed 92 collisions, 81 derailments and 9
other accidents, In which 44 personB
were killed and 209 injured.
Anthracite coal shipments last week
were 26.6 per cent, larger than In the
corresponding week of 1S93, but for the
year to date they are G.l per cent, less
than In 1893
Sixty-eight railroads In ' the. aannnn
week In November decreased in gross
earnings 2.29 per cent. In the first
week seventy-nine railroads decreased
4.62 percent. ' ' . '
Fifteen-hundred employes of the New
York and Cleveland Gas Coal company
in Western Pennsylvania have been
granted an Increase In wages from K5 to
62 cents a ton.
The anthracite coal output for the
completed calendar year promises to
amount to about 40,500,000 tons against
43,089,000 tons In M93, and pig iron pro
duction to 6,545,000 tons compared with
7,124,000 tons In 1893. '
President Wilbur adheres to his origi
nal ueniai or the statement that the Le
high Valley had granted the conces
sions In coal rates, as announced In dis
patches from Wllkes-Burre and New
York. He also says that there was, so
far as he knew, no truth in the state
ment that 5.000 tons of Lehigh Valley
were sola in Philadelphia at $2 a ton.
It Is also believed by many, says the
Philadelphia Record, that the ultimate
result of the present difficulty In the
coal trade will be to take from the rail
roads the sale of the Individual opera
tors' product, and to restore the trade
to the old order of things that prevailed
before the efforts of President McLeod
to control the entire anthracite coal
situation, ... .

New York, Nov. 26. Business at the

' The Trouble with Cleveland.
From the Courier-Journal.
The real trouble with M. Cleveland Is
that he Is not a lender at all, but a muster;
without sympathy or Imagination; mak
ing common cause with no human being;
profoundly, idangerously self-conllident;
using as a rule the lush of the master In
stead of the "esources of the statesman;
having all of Jackson's will without a
particle of Juckson's prescience and tact.
We have aii elegant line of ladles' stick

CHEAPEST IRON BEDS IN
TO our patrons:
Washburn-Crosby Co. wish to assure their many pat
rons that they will this veur hold to their usual custom
of. milling STRICTLY OLD 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 every detail of milling has
placed Washburn-Crosby Co.'s flour far above other
brands.
