THEY ARE NOW
IN SOFT COAL
ANTHRACITE OPERATORS QO
INTO OTHER FIELDS.
They Sold Their Holdings In Hard
Joal to the Big Carrying Com
panies at High Figures and Then
Invested Their Monoy In the Soft
Coal Fields of tho Western Part of
the State and West Virginia Local
Men Who Aro Now Important Fac
tors in Bituminous Region.
"Twenty-live nilllllnns of dollars lias
lieon Invested In bituminous coal lands
in Western Pennsylvania and "West
Virginia In tlic lust ten yrnrs by an
thracite operators, who sold out their
holdings In tlio lmrd coal region, cither
wholly or In part, to the coal trust, and
transferred their cnpjtul to western
Holds," miya tho Philadelphia Times.
"TIicpo men, who had made fortunes In
tho anthracite region, transferred their
properties to the trust at high llBtires
and Immediately reinvested their pro
ceeds further west, where they aro to
day the leaders In one of tho most re
markable Industrial developments that
tho business -world has known In the
past quarter century.
"As a result cx-anthracltc operators
now have a firm hold on tho bitumin
ous region, ore working hand and hand
with their eastern brethren and arc
backing up the hard coal men in their
present battle with resident Mitchell
and the United Mine Workers of Amer
ica. "There Is no doubt tho silent yet tre
mendously powerful support which tho
soft coal men have given to the anthra
cite operators has been a strong factor
in helping the eastern operators to
maintain a Arm stand against Mitch
ell's demands and to scorn all offers of
tomuromlse.
, SAW MILLIONS IN IT.
"The first anthracite operators to see
tho possibilities of making millions in
tho soft coal Holds were Congressman
J. B. Lcisenring and Dr. John Wentz,
Bf Luzerne county, who, in 1SS0, bought
several thousand acres of coal lands in
I the Connellsville region and built sev
1 cral hundred coke ovens. Fifteen years
later they old out their holdings to II.
C. Frick and invested their profits at
Big Stone Gap, "West Virginia, where
the Lelsenrlng estate and Dr. Wcntz
now control immense properties.
( "Their example was quickly followed
by other operators, but It was not until
Information of the so-called "Coal
Trust" eight years ago that tho move
ment westward became general. The
Lackawanna, Erie, Lehigh Valley, Dela
ware and Hudson and other coal-carrying
companies then began to offer big
figures to individual operators for their
anthracite coal lands in tho Luzerne,
Lehigh and Wyoming regions. As a re
sult scores of big operations changed
hands and anthracite men began to dot
the soft coal regions of Western Penn
sylvania and West Virginia with mines
and coke ovens located in hitherto un
developed fields.
"Among the first of the big operators
to sell to the trust were T. H. Watkins
and C. D. Simpson, whose coal lands
were near Scranton. They got the high
price they asked for their mines from
tho Temple Iron company and immedi
ately bought 50,000 acres of soft coal
land in Blair and Cambria counties.
This was the foundation of the Web
ster Coal and Coke company, which
now employs more than 6,000 men. They
aro among the heaviest operators in
the country. Messrs. Watkins and
Simpson still hold their Interests in the
company and aro In the directorate.
The main offices aro in this city. Other
anthracite operators who have sold out
their interests in part or altogether
and Invested in soft coal lands, includ
ed the following:

INDUSTRIAL JOTTINGS.
Western Coal Fields.
Tho Western interior coal field lies
within tho prairie plains of the Missis
sippi valley in tho states of Missouri,
Kansas, Iowa and Nebraska. Tho
coal of Nebraska Is small in quantity
and irregular in supply. The total area
of the Held approximates 66,000 square
miles; the probably productive areas
are: Iowa, 10,000 square miles; Mis
souri, 14,000 square miles; Kansas, 15,
000 square miles. The usual variation
In tho beds Is from 18 Inches to 6 feet,
but In some of tho pockets coal 70 feet
thick has been found.
The coals of tho western interior
Held are exclusively bituminous and
essentially steam coals.
In 1000, 561 commercial mines In' 61
counties In Iowa, Missouri and Kan
sas produced a little over 13,200,000
short tons, valued at the mines at a
little less than $16,900,000, of which 33
per cent, was used as railroad fuel, 23
per cent, for manufacturing fuel, and
42 per cent, as domestic fuel. The es
timated capacity of tho mines in 1900
was over 1S,600,000 short tons. The
production of this Held in 1SS0 was
about 3,100,000 short tons; in 1S90, it
was about 9,000,000 tons; in 1900, it was
a little over 13,200,000 tons. No single
road or group of roads, however, con
trols either traffic or production, and
the problems of the Independent pro
ducer versus the company mine have
not, as yet, come to complicate the
situation.

RHEUMATISM
Of .ill cripples the rheumatic cripple seems
most unfortunate. When a man is hopelessly
crippled by loss of limb he accepts the fact as
irremediable, yet he is 6ften better off than the
rheumatic cripple whose body is sound of limb.
To be physically perfect and yet be drawn and
twisted by rheumatic pains seems a special
irony of fate.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery has
suppled the stiff legs and straightened the bent
backs of sufferers from rheumatism after years
of misery and useless "doctoring." It cleanses
the blood from uric acid poison, gives a new
supply of rich pure blood and gives sound health
to the whole body.
Mr. R. J. McKnight, of Cades, Williamsburg County,
South Carolina, writes: "I had been troubled with
rheumatism for twelve years, so bad at times I could not
leave my bed. I was badly crippled. Tried many doc
tors and two of them gave me up to die. None of them
did me much good. The pains in my back, hips and
legs (and at times in my head), would nearly kill me.
My appetite was very bad. Everybody who saw me
said I must die. I took five bottles of the ' Golden
Medical Discovery' and four vials of 'Pellets,' and
to-day my health is good after suffering twelve years
with rheumatism."
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery purifies
the blood, cures diseases of the stomach and
other organs of digestion and nutrition, and so causes the body to regain strength
by the only way known which is by the perfect digestion and assimilation of
food. It is the one great blood-purifying, body-building medicine.
It is understood that rheumatism is a disease of the blood. "Golden Medical
Discovery" cures rheumatism and other blood diseases by entirely eliminating the
poisons which cause disease. It cures scrofula, erysipelas, salt-rheiim, boils, sores
and other eruptive diseases caused by impure blood.
Accept no substitute for 'Golden Medical Discovery.' There is nothing "just
as good " for1 diseases of the stomach and blood.

THE MARKETS
"Wall Street Review.
New York, July 10. Today's stock mar
ket was highly speculative throughout
and speculative inllucnces affected tho
grain markets. In the stock market there
was largo buying of New York Central,
which was tho leader of tho market, by
the same brokers which wero heavy sell
era of western grain carrying railroad
stocks. The conviction was general to
day that tills wns a manoeuvre to facili
tate taking profits In western stocks on
the part of the so-called western contin
gent which Is engrossed at this tlmo with
tho conduct of the corner In July corn
at Chicago. The realizing In stocks, in
spite of the clearing weather In tho crop
regions today, continued heavy shipments
of currency to Chicago, the rising rates
for tlmo money here, the selling of loan
bills in tho foreign exchange market
which has averted gold exports aro all at
tributed In somo degree to tho exigencies
of the corn corner. That the stock mar
ket Is still well In control by largo spec
ulative interests was deconstrated by tho
early strangeth of tho eastern trunk Hues
and by the revival of strength in Mis
souri Pacific. Tho six point spurt in
Sugar was in tho nature of punishment
to bear speculators, who have sold this
stock short very freely of late. The ag
gressive rally in Colorado Fuel, and the
upward vush In United States Steel at tho
close today was suggestive of like results.
The closing generally was steady. Total
sales, 02S.200 shares. The bond market
was Irregular. Total sales, par value.
$.',300,000. United States bonds were un
changed on the last call.
