The new tunnel that Is being driven
northward In the No. 4 slope at Audenrled,
gives bright promises of tho early discov
ery of a prolltable vein. There wus a vein
discovered in the tunnel several weeks
ago, but in the hopes of finding another
the tunnel work contlnueil. Last wceK
a small seam of coal presented Itself in
tho fuce and In a few days a good vein of
coal may materialize.
No. 14 slope at Pleasant Hill will be

sloie 113 feet of tho hardest kind of rock

Philadelphia Inquirer: The New York
anthracite companies now begin to see
their mistake In having followed up the
Reading so persistently until htey have
driven It into a corner. It is now going
to light. In 1SK!. after the llrst Reading re
organization, that company shipped to
market ulmost exactly 7,0o0.000 tons of
coal out of a total of 29,120,000 tons pro
duced. Tho compuny has always been one
of the firmest In the matter or prices, and
not ono has stood up for a ycur past with
as much firmness us this, and yet the
other companies, by their cutting and
other underhand practices, have so en
croached upon Its business that out of the
41,391,000 tons shipped to murket last year
the Heading furnished but 8,2S0,OU0 tons.
In other words, it is putting no more coal
into the competitive market now than It
did thirteen years ago, Its whole Increase
hnvlng gone Into its own local markets.
The Reading owns 50 per cent, of the un
mlned con I In the country, It has terminal
facilities In this city uncqualed on the
Atlantic coast, and by a very moderate
expenditure It could double the number of
Its producing collieries und could handle
the Increased business. No other com
puny can do this. The sentiment of the
bondholders and stockholders of the
Rending is unanimous in support of Presl
dent Harris' llrm pulley for mi Increase
In the share of the trade, and the liyht
will be pushed with vigor from this end,
