The sales agents of one of the larger
anthracite coal rninlnir and inrrvinv
companies reports ihat the condition or
the Industry is fairly satisfactory. Very
little coal Is moving at less than circu
lar prices. and the continued cold weath
er has considerably lightened the stock
or dealers. Tlie relations between the
various companies continue to be har
monious, and production is UDOn a con
servative basis. No Instructions as to
a meeting to consider price have been
received by the sale agents from the
advisory committee of president.

It I said that order for steel rail

car and other rolling stock have also
been made on aonore liberal scale. This
is construed to uotnt to n better railroad
demand than was experienced during
1S95. It will be remembered that tne
sharp and rapid advance in price
drove out of the market many would-be
purchaser. Necessltle have been
growing since that time and are be
ginning to find expression in orders.

The ilan is an elaborate one, Its main
feature being a reduction In the operat

be Tor any reorganization can be ef

tant lines between Chlcugo and the

ment which stipuates that each road
hall Immediately abolish what was
known as mileage tickets. These ex-t-Hahge
ticket have been fruit for the
scalpers for years. They are straight
tickets, which are exchanged for an
Sdual amount of mileage from books
old at the fate of 2 cets pner mile.
These tickets have caused a great deal
more demoralization in passenger fares
Una more rate wars than any other one
thing. The railroad companies which
sighed this agreement are the Pennsyl
