Philadelphia Stockholder: A leading r ial company Is offerir.-g titove coat et J2.7."i. New York 'harbor. There are re ports that sales have been made ns low ae JU.fiO. It Is undoubtedly true that considerable can be bought at $2.S0. In view of these facts it Is pertinent to recall (he position of the trade nnj the market for anlhracite stocks in 1S77, when- the famous auction rales of coal occurred In Exchange Place, Now York: this was on July 15, 1S77. Prices c-iIabMs'hrd were 2.45 to $2.85.

"The first," said one of Wiem, "reprr:rits the sale of Lehigh Valley coal lionila (as one of the stcps contemplated In 'bringing (about the termination of the demorallzaitlon in tho coal trail. If it has any Influence l-j that direction, we phtill, of course, rejoice with others. The option, li-ow- ever, ns given last Hlrlng, ran until April, ISIIO, and purchase by the 'bank ers at thli time wan not expected, and the option given .t'hem could have 'had no ipofFlble 'bearing upon 'the current situation. This company Is also charged with selling coal too low, be cause of Its wed of murwy. This, too, Is untrue. -Sales ngent. have fccen guided by competitive conditions of the market solely, and. sales have been. made on usual credits. The third state ment Is that Ihe Lehigh Valley took grain from Ruffalo at prices which maite the trunk lines do ibusinero at a loss. Tho lowest rates for carrying grain this senpon 'have tbecn made by two of the New York companies, ome of which set the pace, (a.nd the ol'her fol lowed.
