ANTHRACITE COAL.
Not only In tho East, but nt Buffalo
nnd at tho anthracite and bituminous
mines In Pennsylvania, the shortugo of
cars Is becoming quite a factor In de
mand and supply of coal. All-rail an
thracite Is becoming scarco In Ohio,
Michigan and Indiana on account of
the stringency In tho car situation at
Buffalo and at tho mines. Many of tho
roads havo placed embargoes on their
coal cars and will permit none to leave
the main lines. Of course It must bo
quite clearly understood that there Is
as yet no actual famine, yet the short
age, despite tho fact that during tho
present summer orders for ninny
thousands of new cars have been
pinned, of which only a tithe have been
delivered, Is becoming more rerlotis
each week, and If real cold weather
should develop early In October, con
siderable Inconvenience and annoy
ance might be entailed by dealers In
outside towns, who usually refrain
from buying until tho last moment.
Black Diamond.
Tho Delaware and Hudson Canal
company nt Buffalo, N. Y., now has
3,500 additional feet of Improved dock
nge at the foot of Louisiana street, as
the result ot work Just completed by
tho Buffalo Dredging company. The
work consisted of building a solid ma
sonry dock and dredging tho river so
as to give a depth of 1? feet of water
below mean low water level for a
width of 200 feet. Much of the dredg
ing was done In solid rock. The entire
dock Is now accessible to lake boats of
the largest class.
Dr. Roberts, chief sanitary superin
tendent of New York city, nubmltted a
report on the soft coal smoke nuisance
to the board of health last week to the
effect that the city be divided Into In
spection districts In order that the
nuisance might be abated. Tho sug
gestion was adopted unanimously nnd
twenty-3even Inspection districts were
created. It Is r.roposed that when a
case Is reported by one of these In
spectors, notice will be served on tho
owner of the building to abate the
nuisance. It the order is not obeyed
crlmlnnl proceedings will follow. Vv hat
effect this will have upon the soft coal
trade is yet to be seen. No doubt a
test care will have to be made before
there will be any special changes of
the use of soft coal in the city limits.
