This is Alio, no doubt, to the fact that dealers generally havo u supply of coal on hand which they find difficulty in moving, for tlio summer, for tho consumer does not conic- forward with orders to relieve the yards of tho coal which is in stock and which was purchased at a less rate than is now being asked. Tho littlo that it being done in tho way uf new business is said to bo at tho cir cular issued in tho latter part of April, and there aro somo peonlo who fancv that by announcing an advancoon tlio first of July, later in this month thero will bo more tonnago placed at that circular. There need bo little foar on the part of buyers that anthracite will bo sold at a less prico than now current this year. This being so, It Is a good time to buy uud get tho coal in tlio yard as last as practicable. Only a repetition of last year's excessive output can reduce prices, and wo sec no indications of this being done. It is a good tiiuo of tlio year to bo getting supplies forward.
