Coal Presidents to Meet Again.
There sooms to bo a difference of opin
ion in Now York and Philadelphia in
regard to the mooting of the presidents
of tho anthracite coal carrying com
panies, which is to bo held today. It
was rumorod this week in Now York
that such a mooting would bo hold and
on tho strength of this tho coal stocks
were very strong and closed at higher
figures. It was also said that tho presi
dents had practically agroed upon tho
terms on which tho anthracite business
was to bo conducted. At tho office of
tho Reading Company nothing could bo
learnod in regard to a moetiag of tho
presidents, it being said that no definite
arrangement, had yet been mado, but
tho informant was of tho opinion that
such a meeting would soon take placo.
At tho Lehigh Valley office it was
statod that today had boon, decided up
on for a mooting of tho presidents, and
that it would bo hold in Now York. All
tho other meetings previous to the ap
pointment of tho committee to doviso
means for tho bettering of tho condition
of tho coal trade woro held in Philadel
phia, and tho reason given for the hold
ing of tho mooting in Now York at this
timo was that a better attendance could
be had.
Tho coal situation has for a long time
boon In a chaotic state and it got to such
a point that oxtrcmo measures had to be
taken to prevent the severe cutting of
rates which was in vogue. A meeting
of tho presidents was hold some weeks
ago, and, after two or threo sessions, it
was decided to appoint a committeo to
make an investigation of tho coal situa
tion.
This committee has now mado its re
port, and at tho mooting today will bo
presented to tho full board. What ac
tion will bo taken is merely conjecture,
but it is thought that tho presidents will
agree with the committoo and adopt the
resolutions recommended by thorn.

Thought He Was a Burglar.
Tho Wiikos-Barre Newsdealer tells of
an Interesting encounter of two of Froo
land's former residents with a burglar
last Sunday morning. About 1 o'clock
tho occupants of D. J. Gallagher's resi
dence on Kulp streot wero awakened
by a noise down stairs. Mrs. Gallagher
went down and found Ollie Yonson, a
Swodo. She asked him what ho wanted
but ho was too drunk to explain. Sho
returned up stairs and informed hor hus
band and his brother Joseph, who camo
down. They took tho Swede for a bur
glar and for ten minutes played foot
