INDlSTRULTOrMU
A Potteville dispatch says: Since
the beginning of a number of actions
for damages against coal oerators be
cause of culm washed oik lands from
the collieries owned or operated by the
coal companies, numerous settlements
have bee made to avoid the coat of
lawsuits. On Tuesday ttiere were
three deeds of damages placed upon
record, one from John Kolta for $1,733;
another from Mr. and Mrs. Alonxa A.
Richards for 2tt and the third from
Margaret Rahn for $600. These per
sons sure all owners of land along the
Schuylkill in Schuylkill Haven. The
deeds are made to the Reading com
pany, the Reading Coal and Iron com
pany and the managers of the Schuyl
kill (Na.vlgil.ion company, the Dela
ware Coal company and .Mammoth
Vein- Coal and Iron company.
(Philadelphia Press: The open cut on
anthracite coal freights by the 'Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western rail
road was the chief topic of conversa
tion In- coal crcles yesterday. What
the effect of it will be cannot be de
termined for some tlmea but there will
o doubt be a disposition on the part
of vhe other companies to ignore the
cut as far as Is possible. The Lacka
wanna's defense Is that other com
panies) itihrough private contracts with
individual coal operators have practi
cally reduced rates and that it is bet
ter to do business openly than In an
Indirect way. The Lackawanna com
pany, however, was one of tiho first to
make contracts wluh individual opera
tors on the basis of tidewater prices,
and a few years ago when an effort
was made to put the trade on a better
footing Vhe Lackawanna showed thai;
it had such contracts and could not
get rid of them. The action of the
Lackawanna company may have the
effect f getting the coal companies
Uogether and bringing about a reor
ganization of the trade. There has
been a disposition for two months to
restrict tonnage, not to the point Mint
Is esserl'.ial to the future welfare of
the trade, but to keep the output with
in certain limits. This policy, it is
hoped, will be continued this month,
but something furlJher Is needed.
Stove coal has cold In New York and
New England on the basis of $2.65 per
tun, which Is ruinous to the producer.
In a month or more the autumn trade
ought to open and before that time
.hose who control the trade ought to
agree upon a harmonious programme
for the year. The average prices of
coal on which carrying rates are based
received by one of the great carriers
at New York In June was about $2.90
per ton, or slightly below the May re
ceipts. The following are the actual
prices of the various sizes of coal:
Broken $2 844
Egg 2 87'i
Stove 2 MS
Chestnut 2 834
Pea 2
Buckwheat 1 81 U
The tide rates of freight received in
June by the companies which have
contracts to purchase the coal of indi
vidual operators were, on the prepared
sizes, $1.16 per ton; on pea coal, 1.29Vi,
and on buckwheat, $1.23. It Is most
remarkable that the smaller sizes
yielded larger returns than the more
Important sizes, but it is explained by
the fact that on prepared sizes the
companies pay 60 per cent, of the tide
price for the coal and retain 40 per
cent, for freight. On pea coal t'hey
give the producer 45 per cent, of the
'tide price and retain 55 per cent., and
on buckwheat the division is 32 per
cent, for the producer and 68 per cent,
for freight. It must be borne in mind
that .the reduction of rates by the
Lackawanna not only affects contract
coal, which is probably 30 per cent of
the total shipments, but all coal to tide
and the lakes, and It will also make
necessary changes in local rates.

Tragls Message Said to Usve Cams from
the World of Spirits-Queer Narrative
Told by a Pltuburf Physician.
A prominent Pittsburg physician ad
mits to a Dispatsh reporter that he re
cently had something happen to Mm
which Eihakea his doubt concerning
psychical communications. "I was pro
fessionally attending," said he, "the
daughter of a well-known Spiritualist.
The case was a serious one and I
watched It closely. One morning when
I entered, the sick room I saw im
mediately that a change had taken
place for the worse. The fever had
Increased and grave eymptoir.a bad
developed. I thought it my duty to
inform the mother of the serious turn,
so I called her aside.
" 'I am sorry,' said I lo her, 'that
your daughter has not gained as I
thouR'lU she would. I find this nwr
ing Iter case must serious; in taxi,
madam' I felt at liberty to proceed,
seeing he did not take it hardi 'I am
fearful of her recovery.'
"This did not seem to affect the wo
man in the least. She went about the
room with a pleasant smile, tidying up
things. Thinking K'lie had not hoard
me, I aald at;a 'Madam, I said your
daughter cannot live.'
"At this the turned to me aril smil
ingly said: 'I heard you, but I know
better. She will live'
"'Hut, maCum, I persisted, 'you are
sa y l.i g a good deal more than I, as a
physician, can. I don't think she will
survive the day.' -
"hhe turned to me and said, with a
little laugh: 'Now, doctor, you phy
sicians surely cannot pretend to know
all thing?.'
"Her Indifference at such a serious
question aggravated me, so, saying 1
would call again In the evening1, at rhe
same time aguln telling her that I ex
pected Hhe would be dying by the time
I left. Well, I called again that even
ing. Found the Pntlcnt Sitting I p.
"I found my patient sitting up In bed,
the fever having entirely left her, and
her condition was such that I was
dumbfounded. I hnd nothing to say,
for there was nothing that could be
said, so I only prescribed again and
was about to go when the lady asked
me If I would not like to Join a small
circle that was holding a peance in the
parlor. I laughingly said: "None of
that for me, thank you. I don't believe
In It, and so don't care to see r.nytliln
of it,' and picked up my hat and started
for the door. She persisted, however,
naming over some prominent ppople
who were In the circle, bo I at last con
eluded to go.
"I had hardly sat down before the
medium announced In writing n cer
tain name, which I at once recognized
as a patient of inlnj who had died a
year before. I never pretended to know
the name, ibut It came persistently until
finally the medium announced It was
for the doctor. I controlled my ex
pression so that I would give no clew
that I knew the man, when I was
dumbfounded by having a slip of paper
handed me In the handwriting of my
former friend and patient, which read:
'I am very sorry, doctor. I did not
ask your advice the last time I saw
you. Don't let others follow this mis
erable, unhappy wretch.' I prettnded
not to understand, but the truth was
I was chilled to the marrow. The man
whose name was signed to the messago
was a patient and dear friend who was
so misguided as to doubt the existence
of God. He had a lingering illness, and
when I saw this was going to be fatal,
I 'beseeched him to consider his condi
tion as he approached the awful valley.
I told him he could not live more than
a week and tried to Induce him to make
his peace with his Maker.
Refused to Argue the Oucstion.
"He resolutely refused to argue the
question until one day, when I saw
the end fast approaching. I tried with
all my power to make him see the error
of his ways. I remember he raised
himself upon his elbow, and, pointing
his shriveled linger at me, he said.
In tones provoked by anger:
' 'Doctor, it's no use of your talking.
As I have lived, so I will die,' and as
he ennk back on his pillow I gave up
all hope. I left him to attend another
serious case, and was detained lonKer
thun I expected, but when I returned
ti my ofllce I found a note ask Ing me to
come to the house Immediately. I hur
ried, but when I arrived he was dead.
I i'on't kiiow what he wanted to say t
mo, but here, In a stroiice company,
came a message to me n horrible mes
sage, full of regret and repentance

a brut a subject which I am certain no
prrsou but my friend and myself knew
about, as I bad never mentioned It to
any one. .
"V'htither It was really what tt pur
puled to be or not was Immaterial,
for there wa the message, and I was
not deceived in what I read. Tne In
cident bad a depressing effect upon me,
for it was so unlike the usual messages
from the other world. Here waa one
that was not happy, and whose very be
ing seemed to be consumed In regret.
To tt.-ls day I cannot throw off the
peculiar influence which this alleged
mcsrage from the other world threw
a brut me. Hut suffice It to say that
was the laat spiritualistic seance I ever
attended."
THAT BATHING SUIT.
I have just heard, writes Polly Pry In
the New York Recorder, of a quarrel that
has taken place between an engaged couple
and all about a bathing suit.
The young laily mude It and felt very
proud of her work. So much so that she
showed It to her Dance.
"Where's the rest of It?" he Inquired,
with a panlc-strlvken face.
"The rest of what? It's all here."
"Do you mean to tell me, Clara Waters,
that you're going to wear a thing like that
In public?"
"Why, Oeorge, I don't know what you
mean! Do you dare to say that I'm im
modest?" "N-no! but It seems awfully short 10
me."
"Short? Well, the idea of such a thin!
Why, the skirt comes two Inches below the
knee and I wear a trunks and stock
Inn. Why, I'll be Just loaded down with
clothes!"
"Rut I don't sea the need of a showing
a why, they have suits that come down
to the ankle, you know, and"
"Cieorge Henry Hoyt. don't be such an
iillot! Do you think I'm going to wear
thone bloomers nnd look like a pauper
from Hlackwell's Island? Humph! Tou'd
bftter lock me up and be done with It."
And they drifted apart temporarily.
