This law prohibits any railroad from carrying In Interstate commerce a commodity In which It has an Interest. Compliance with this law forced a number of so-called "coal roads" to part ownership with their coal prop erties through the formation of sepa rate corporations to control the coal after it left the mines. Among these were included the Lehigh Valley Railroad, whose coal distribution is now conducted through the Valley Coal Sales Company; the Erie and the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western. Within the last year the Pennsyl vania was reported at different times to have sold the Susquehanna prop erty to the Lehigh Coal and Naviga tion Company and the Delaware and Hudson. The property was rumored to go to the coal and navigation com pany in part payment for the Lehigh and New England Railroad, for which the larger road was angling. For sev eral months, and, until recently, it was generally believed the Delaware and Hudson would take it any day. The firm of M. A. Hanna and Com pany is best known as agents of the Hill interests. The Susquehanna Coal Company owna 26,938 acres, with an annual output of 4,000,000 to 4,500,000 tons and total sales of between 6,000,000 and 7,000,000 tons, the difference rep resenting coal purchased from other mines. Su.quehnnna Company's History The Susquehanna Coal Company was organized and incorporated In 1867 for the purpose of mining hard coal. Its authorized stock Is |3.000,- 000. of which $2,136,800 has been is sued, all of it having been owned by the Pennsylvania Railroad. Its fund ed debt consists or $9,315,500 five-year 5 per cent, gold bomss, and its prop erty comprises valuable hard-coal lands in Luzerne, Schuylkill. Dauphin and Northumberland counties. Morris Williams, its president, has had head quarters in the Commercial Trust building in this city, and the operat ing headquarters are in Wilkes-Barre. where Robert A. Quin is general man ager. Some of the company's property Is in Luzerne county, but the bulk of it is in Schuylkill, Dauphin and North umberland counties. The Schuylkill properties are in the neighborhood of Shenandoah and Minersville; the Dau phin properties are in the Lvkens Val ley, near Lykens and Williamstown. and the Northumberland county prop erties form a ten-mile strip from Mount Carmel beyond Shamokin, and include seven great producers.
