Soft Coal Market.
Conl Trade .Tnurnnl.1
Bituminous branch of coal trade is
inclined to dullness, for thero Is a full
supply biting mined at all points, new
mines being opened and tho older ones
developed to a degree which promises
for tho future an ample quantity, r.c
matter how rapidly the industrials may
improve and take on tonnage; in the
west the quietness is particularly no
ticeable and it is said that a large con
sumer can now buy coal cheaper than
the price he pays on the contracts en
tered into last summer, a quite different
stato of affairs from thatexlsting a year
ago, when contracts were a nightmare
to the operators.
At the tidewater ports there is now
no delay in loading, and the consumer
finds no difficulty In getting forward all
that he may require; stocking for the
future is golnr on at many places. Even
the Pittsburg report shows that things
are not quite on the boom as they were
this time a year ago; the demand for
coal is only fair. The tonnngo output is
considerably below what It was during
September and October, when the lake
shipments were at tho maximum, and
the output during these months Is usual
ly tho measuring stick of producers.
The fact that output for ready consump
tion Is ahead of the normal of any pre
vious year, but unless tho maximum
tonnage Is coming out a wave of pessi
mism sweeps around among operators.
There Is every reason to believe that
soft coal people will do well to hold
prices as they are at the presont time;
wo doubt very much if the average for
thlByear will equnl that of last year
unless something comes to help to fur
thor demand say from abroad.
At Buffalo, in bituminous, the supply
is fully equal to demand, orders having
fallen off somowhat during the past
week. Still there is no denrth of bus
iness and no cause for uncaslnoss. The
demand Is good, mora available cars
have strengthened tho mine shipments
and the soft coal men are in a measure
relieved of an anxiety resulting from a
too eager market, which with all their
available resources could not be satis
fied. There have been no changes in
price.
