INDUSTRIAL TOPICS.
Wilkes-Barre Record: Wyoming coal
can go to Philadelphia over the Belvldore
und Delaware from Phllllpsburg. If JuiUe
Packer had only leased the North Pe:m
before the Reading did, what an advan
tage it would have proven to the Valley?
The statement of the Jersey Central rull-
road for January oompared with the
same month last year shows:
(Jross earnings $552,432 Dec. $4l,C.D
Expenses 005, ,9i Dec. 2M'-9
Net earnings $24G,35 Dec. $15,3M
New York. March -8. The sub-commit
tee appointed by the anthracite companies
to report statistics as to the capacity of
the different companies were not ready to
report today to the general committee
meeting and accordingly the meeting was
postponed until net Tuesday. In the
meantime the sub-committee Is complet
ing Its labors. Its report will present
statistics of the different companies for
the past two years' and from them It is
upposed the general committee will ar
range a basis of percentage of operations
for the different companies. The work
of the general committee Is to be subse
quently reviewed by the presidents before
final aotlon is taken.
First Vice President Hartshorn, of the
Lehigh Valley, who returned on Wednes
day from a visit to St. Louts, when ques
tioned as to the probable action of his
company, said that having been absent for
several days he was not perfectly familiar
with the situation, but, so far as his com
pany was concerned, he did not believe
that It would accede to Reading s demand
for un Increased pro rata, if It was U)
ents a ton or only 10 cents a ton. The Le
high Valley, he said, could send all of the
coal originating on its lines to New Yerk,
and thus gain the K-nellt of the longer
haul. If the dealers on the line of the
Reading wanted Lehigh coal they would
have to pay the difference of the in
creased pro rata.
Apropos of the Reading's recent noti
fication the Interesting fact Is recalled
that a number of years ago, prior to tho
Interstate commerce law, the Reading
Railroad company suddenly advanced the
freight rates on Lehigh Valley coal 20
cents a ton. At that time the officials of
the Lehigh Valley railroad took no ac
tlon, but Instead of sending its coul over
the Reading's tracks It sent nearly all the
output destined to Philadelphia over the
Pennsylvania railroad. The falling off
was so great that the Reading company
soon rescinded Its order and established
the old rate. The Lehigh Valley company
will. It is thought, see that Its customers
get all the Lehigh coal that In required In
that city, and when it Is absolutely neces
sary it will pay the advance In tolls.
President Wilbur's comment on the
Reading railroad's threat . follows: "It
looks as If the Reading Railroad company
does not care' to supply dealers on thler
lines with Lehigh coal, and that they arc
Indifferent to the kiss of thn large ton
nage we have heretofore given them at
East Peng Junction and Kethlehetn. Our
propoVtldn of the rates upon these short
hauls Is so small that this action on tho
part of the Reading, so far ns it diverts
tonnage from the.lr roud, will lie to our
advantage by reason of tho longer haul
and better rates In carrying It to other
markets." President V llliur further said
the Lehigh Valley had not taken nny ao
tlon In the matter yet, and he did not
know what would be done, as ienenil
Traffic Manuger John Taylor is out of
town.
The Philadelphia Record Is loyal to the
Reading In Its new attitude. It says
"The ability of the Rending both for
enormous production and for easy trans
portation cannot be excelled The grade
of the Heading road Is so favorable that a
locomotive can bring down as many load
ed cars as It can carry back empty; there
fore, the greater quantity tuken to mar
ket, the greater must b the prollt over
that of y competing road. The bud
faith shown by other producers has
caused the Reading to take the decided
step that It has to compel the award to
It of a larger percentage of the total out
put, as well as to bring ubout some rella-
blo agreement concerning the preserve
tlon of a proper schedule of prices. The
end of Ihe whole business must be very
materially to the Interest of ths Reading
ecurity-noidcrs."
Philadelphia Inquirer: The first result
of the Heading's new attitude In regard to
local coal shipments Is a drop In tldo-
water prices. The Jersey Ceneral and
Lehigh Valley sell between 600,000 and 750.
000 tons of coal In the Reading's territory.
and as they do not Intend to lose this ton
nage they mtint sell It In competitive mar
kets. Wlthift the last day or two prices
have weakened badly. The circular price
for stove coal In New York is 13.60, but
sales have been made right along us low
as t3.49 by the companies, and some con
cerns have gono even lowr. These fig.
ure were for freshly-mined first-class
standard cool. Rut, how the Lehigh Vul-
ley issiUd to te selling as low as 13. IE. and
some other companies are reported to be
making transactions at 13.20 and S3.2G.
These are war prices. At )3.16 tho Lehigh
Valley gets $1.26 for transportation, which
is but little more -than cost, while the coal
operator gets I1.S9 for his coal, which Is
less than cost. If these prices tire to con
tinue not one anthracite company in the
country ran earn a dividends and only
two or three can earn their nxed charges.
The situation Is thut of war, anil It is easy
to see that It will grow worse before It
grows better.
