were confined to the fractions. Near
the close the fri-angcra ran oft to
per cent, on the revival of stories of
damage to the crops. The low priced

to 61, but when the inquiry from the

liquidate the stock settled back to 4S.

INDUSTRIAL TOPICS.
The Johnson Steel company has posted
notices of a 15 per cent. Increase In wages
to the men In the converting mill, dry
house and machine shops, in all about
2W. The Increase is entirely voluntary on
the part of the company.
J. Morton llrown, mnnager of the Wood
stock Woolen mills, of Norrlstown, has no
tified the narrow loom weavers that be
ginning with Tuesday an Increase of 20 per
cent, had been made in their wages. The
change will affect fifty operators.
The Reading coal tonnage continues to
hold its own, though, so far In June, con
siderably less than for the same period
lest year, owing to the enormous output
In June, 1SS4. Last week shipments aggre
gated 262.831 tons, a decrease of 44,824 tons
compared with the same week last year,
and a decrease compared with the pre
ceding week of 13,762 tons. Tonnage for
the first week of June amounted to 210.127
tons, a decrease of 21.165 tons; the second
week, 276.613 tons, a decrease of 30,038 tons,
and last week It was, as stated, 262.S31
tons, a decrease of 44.824 tons, making a
total of 779.571 tons and a decrease of 96,027
tons for the three weeks. The dally aver
age tonnage for the period was 35,433 tons.
The dally average comparative decrease
was 4,3i5 tons. In case the average is
maintained to the end of the month the
company's shipments for June will aggre
gate 1.U63.05U tons, or 130,950 tons less than
In June, ism. For the fiscal year to latest
date reported shipments were 7,033,477 tons,
against 6.352.4SO tons for the same time last
year, an Increase of 680,996 tons.
Philadelphia Inquirer: The New Jersey
Central railroad has now completed five
monts of its fiscal year, its earnings
statements for that period show an In
crease of $253,512 in gross and $391,846 In
net. The gain In gross receipts can be eas
ily explained, for the production of anthra
cite ctal in the 'first five months of the
your was 2,616,081 tons more than In the
same months last year. This is an In
crease of over 18 per cent, and even though
the rate per ton per mile was much less
than a year ago, yet an Increase In total
receipts Is quite natural. The decrease of
$138,334 In operating expenses in the face
of an Increase of 18 per cent, in
the volume of coal traffic, and It Is safe to
fay also an Increase In the volume of mer
chandise traffic. Is an entry that may be
looked upon with suspicion. Operating ex
penses Is an elastic phrase to companies
that are hard pushed for money. Hut
thtre are two things that are worthy of no
tice in considering this report. The first
Is that In five months 16,897,261 tons of
coal have been produced, against 14,281,177
tons last year, showing that the output has
been rushed and the business of future
months trenched upon. The secoqil Is, did
the Central railroad receive In hard cash
$1,789,371 In the first five months of the
year? How much of this amount is still
29,
due by the Lehigh and Wllkes-llarro Coal
company? Hut even If the accounts are
absolutely correct the coal trade returns
show very conclusively that the Increase
In the coal consumption for the year has
been produced already ami therefore the
business for the remainder of tho year
will be relatively dull, .
