Protracted Meeting.
The Lord willing, 1 will con-

Be is an able minister, and
by a scarcity of cars. The holi
days also restricted production
somewhat, but it afforded facili
ties for car movement which
were taken advantage of. Stocks
are still being depleted and this
will go on until the spring opens.
The calendar year promise to be
very favorable. The consump
tion rf coal is at the highest point
known, and the supply, if the us
mg up of stocks continues, will
be far less at the opening of the
coal year than in 1966. Every in
dication points to the absorption
of the cial above ground, so that
the tra ie will have to take care ol
the output of the mines only later
in the year.
Last year on April 1st there
were 9,000,000 tons of coal in
stock within a radius of 150 miles
of the mines. If there is no fall
ing off in consumption it will be
necessary to produce 5,000,000
tons per month this year to sup
ply the trade. This will lest the
capacity of the mines every
month in the year. The experi
ence in the last quarter of 1906 it
is thought will intluence buyers
to lay !n more coal from May to
July than they have done in for
mer years.
The relations between the min
ers and their employers are more
favorable than at any time In the
history of the trade. Not only
are there very few serious open
buestions, but it is almost literal
ly true that the occupation of the
board of conciliation is gone at
this time. The wages of tha min
ers are larger than at any time
since the award of the strike
commission and the work at the
mines is only interrupted when
the men voluntarily take a holi
.iU . The price of coal is entirely
satisfactory to the producer and
it is rare that even odd lots are
sold at a concession.
Considered from all poiats of
view there is no large industry,
in this period of world wide pros
perity, which is on a more satis
factory lasii for all interests
concerned, than the anthracite
t -ado. Unless fcometbiug entire
ly unforseen occurs there will be
