INDUSTRIAL TOPICS.
Shipments of coal and coke originating
on the Pennsylvania Railroad company's
lines east of Pittsburg and Erie for the
week ended March 30 amounted to 37253
tons of coal and 125,380 tons of coke. Total
shipments of coal and coke for the year to
March 30 amount to 5,454,714 tons against
3,973,117 tons for the corresponding months
of 1804.
Steps were taken this week by the Rend
ing Coal and Iron company to open up the
north side of Heckschervllle, which con
tains one of the richest coal districts of
the anthracite coal region. On Monday
contractors put men to work to open a
slope on the Lelor vein, at the Heckscher
vllle colliery, which was originally opened
by the late Richard Hecksoher, of Phila
delphia, but the operation has been aban
doned for nearly a. quarter of a century.
At that time fire started In the workings,
and it has been burning up to within a
year. ' The fire also affected and caused
the abandonment of the West and East
Pine Knot collieries. These three collier
ies are now the property of the Reading
Coal and Iron company. The manage
ment of the company upon several occa
sions during the past year have had "prov
ing" holes sunk to ascertain whether or
not the fire had exhausted Itself above the
water level. It is now believed the fire
has spent Itself, and steps are now being
taken by which this vast Held of coal may
once again be operated. Some of the veins
cropping out in the Broad mountain are
known to be 80 to 40 feet thick, and of , the
purest and finest quality of the carbon.
THE SECRET OP BEAUTY of the
1 complexion, hands, and hair, in thou
sands of Instances, is found in the perfect
action of the Pores produced by CUTI
CURA 80AP.

e STOCKS AND BONDS. ;
New York. April 6. There was little
disposition to trade at the stock ex
change today, and the total sales fell to
137,000 shares. The dullness was due to
the desire on the part of operators to
await the outcome of the meeting of
anthracite coal presidents. The latter
were in session all day end finally ad
journed without accomplishing any
thing of great Importance. The coalers
wore again rather feverish. Jersey
Central declined from 05V4 to 94, and
rose to 94; Reading ranged between
12al34. A feature of, the market was
the Inquiry for and advances in the
Vanderbllts. Canada Southern sold up
; Michigan Central ; New York Cen
tral . The grangers held firm except
for Burlington and Qulncy, which was
inclined to weakness. The Industries
were far more active than the railroads.
Sugar held well, selling at 100al01.
The range of today's prices for the ac
tive stocks of tho New York stock mar
