A Blockade of € oul Cars, The Pennsylvania Railroad company ‘at Altoona has cautioned shippers in that district not to load coal cars until room is found for then: at terminal points, 3,000 cars loaded with coal having accumulated at Greenwich and a like number at Amboy, with the tracks between those points and this city crowded with coal bound for tide- water. The order of the company has given rise to a rumor that the Pennsyl- vania Railroad is refusing cars to op- erators who have given the COmMpro- mise rate for mining. The railroad officials sar, however, that they will haul all the coal offered when there is room at terminal points tore 18 Local Market Report, For the special benefit ¢f the farmers in the vicinity of Patton the COURIER publishes the following local market report, revised each week: " Butter, k 15 conte per pound Cabbage, ] : : Fags, .

The miners in Patton have been. idle over six moaths and they surely cannot be ensured for returning to work at almost any price as we all know the condition they are placed in.
