Considerable advorse comment lias been mnilo hecauso tho Philadelphia tfc Reading Railway Company lias lately been a large consumer of bituminous coal as fuel for its locomotives, aud nowhere has the comment been more pronounced than iu somo of tho Pottsvillo nowspapers. A littlo inquiry at tho ollico of tho P. & II. C. & I. Co., would havo informed theso scribes that tho use of this kind of fuel was not a matter of choice, hut was a necessity hecauso a sufficient quantity of antlinicite could not bo obtained. In fact, wo havo been informed upon ojj. cellcnt authority that tho P. & R. C. & I Co. stopped shipping anthracito for the railway company's use becauso they wore unable to fill their regular contract orders with the steam sires. As tho bituminous coal costs tho railway company about twlco as much jib tho anthracito buckwheat it was not a money-saving project as somo of our county seat contemporaries have so often stated. Tho facf that tho railway officials are about tu adapt their engines to the use of anthracito again is a straw which indicates that work at the mines is likely to improvo considerably iu the near future, as it is not likely tho railway officials would go to this uxpeiiM) without somo assurance that n regular supply of fuel can ho depouded upuu.
