iiished the following report of a more 

 than usual coal situation: 



The demand for anthracite coal is 

 strong and full circular prices are in 

 effect. Steam sizes of anthracite coal 

 are scarce and premium prices are be- 

 ing paid for them. The premiums, how- 

 ever, at this time are not so large as 

 those which prevailed about ten days 

 to two weeks ago. 



There is a serious shortage of cars, 

 the distribution not being over sixty 

 per cent, which is an unusual condition 

 in the anthracite field. To many mar- 

 kets it is practically impossible to make 

 deliveries, owing to embargoes placed 

 by the railroads. Movement of cars to 

 final destinations is slow, because of the 

 congested conditions that prevail on all 

 railroads. Many railroads will not per- 

 mit their cars to go off their own or 

 allied lines; in other words, will not 

 permit them to go to foreign roads. 



Bituminous coal is strong in price 

 and slow in movement, the car supply 

 being wretched, and the same condi- 

 tions that exist in the anthracite field 

 apply. Prices are not nearly so high 

 as they were, but still strong. 



Negotiations now are on between the 

 operators' and miners' representatives 

 relative to the situation after April 1, 

 for at that time the present agree- 

 ments with the mine workers in the 

 anthracite and bituminous fields expire, 

 and unless negotiations are brought to 

 a satisfactory conclusion to both par- 

 ties there is likely to be a suspension 

 of mining April 1. 



Various Notes. 



A small fire occurred in one of the 

 Market street boiler rooms at the Kob- 

 ert Craig Co. place on the morning of 

 February 14. It was zero weather and 

 the woodwork close to the smokestack 

 started the fire about 6 o'clock, when 

 the night firemen were being relieved 

 by the day firemen. Fortunately, the 

 blaze was extinguished and the loss 

 trifling. 



It is with deep regret that Philadel- 

 phians will learn of the death of Mrs. 

 M. C. Dunn, wife of the well known 

 florist of 614 Chestnut street, whose 

 kindly greeting welcomed one and all.
