Nov. 13.? Posslbtli ties for the arrangement of at least an armistice between the warriiiR anthracite operators and miners grew brighter today. This was not attributable to t tie con ference between Governor Pln cliot of Pennsylvania and the spokesmen of the iwo faction*, but to the necessJtv for presenting a united front to a common enemy, tiie bituminous producers. The lat ter have furnished the anthracite men with a striking demonstra tion of the horrors of war. Forty two gondolas of West Virginia bituminous coal were to day being sold and distributed among the homes of Scranton. in the heart of the anthracite region. Neither anthracite operators nor miners can see profit in the loss of markets to bituminous producers. The exhibition of five retail coal yards in Scranton distributing of coal brought home to both sides the fact that if they can not hold their local markets they have * diminishing chance of inducing anthracite users In New York. New Jersey, ^Jew England 'and the Northwest to avoid the use of substitute fuels. In 1902, the anthracite produ cers lost the Chicago market. In the last two years their sales west bf Buffalo have fallen 40 per cent or more. If Scranton and Wilkes barre householders "won't wait," it is obvious that a postponement of a settlement will be harmful to at least some extent to both con testants. The arrival of the soft coal in the hard coal centers was accom panied by wide distribution of the recipe for the ' furnace cocktail." This provides for the mixture of three "jigers" of nnthracltc with one of soft coal. Special stress was lalil on this procedure by the coal yards which received the soft coal and which arc conducting a vigorous cam paign of instruction to housekeep ers in the use of bituminous as an anthracite substitute. Thin campaign went on in the face of the fact that some of the anthracite coal companies In the region have rescrvo stocks said to aggregate 100,000 tons, patrolled by guards. Six lines of loaded gondolas are held near Seranton waiting the call for hard coal fuel from distress centers. Rome of the renerve is held subject to shipping order by customers who already have it under contract so It can not come on the open market. Hut t he purchaser* of coil loaded on ram are paving demurrage. I11 view of the amount of the re serve stocks already held, observ ers in that field predict that three weeks of real winter would see bi tuminous coal the main sources of heat In the anthracite field. On the other hand, the IMttnburgh coal company, which has aban don) d the Jacksonville agreement supposed to govern union bitumi nous mines, and ha* gone back to the 1917 scale in those properties where former employes were will ing to work, has announced the opening of another mine, the Mon lou^ Number Ten. at Library. Ha., which has been cloned since last April. The I'ittsburgh company, now is operating properties under I he lower scale In Fayette. West moreland. Washington and Alle ghany counties. Pa.. and In the Pomeroy. Ohio, district. Prices for bituminous steam coal In New Kngland have stif fened In sympathy with advance* at Southern loading plefS. Merchants In the anthracite, field are pressing for a settlement In the hope that the miners who arc paid each two weeks Will be, able to get In at least one pay day before Christmas. ixrrro* mavikkt New York.

The drop in price* on the Mock ex change. which sent some Issues down five to 25 dollars a share i was not caused by conditions In J commerce1 or Industry. Manufacturers today are mak ing as many automobiles as they were Monduy and making an equal profit on every car. Yet the motor shares were speelally ham mered. In the last month the Hupp factory, for example, turned out 2.779 eight-cylinder cara as compared with 1,397 the previous month. The Oakland factory, part of General Motors, broke all previous monthly sales recorda In , October. Hen hunt: up a similar (record, Chrysler. Hudson and Studehaker nre not only turning out a multitude of cars hut selling them. The Dupont Company, which suffered in conjunction with the fall in Ceneral Motors stocks has Just perfected a new nitrate production proceaa and Is doing a wonderful husineas In ar j linclal silk. dyes, dynamite and, ? paints. The men who are identified with actual production and sale of motor cars have maintained that profits and prospecta had been discounted and redlacounted by the advances in stock prices and that quotations Tor motor shares were far too high. Today i these men reiterated their por tions along with their continued faith in the prosperity and stabil ity of their industry. The steel stocks suffered In the 'street. Dispatches from Chicago i today say the steel market there Is the strongest of the year with orders for nearly &00.000 tons of rails and a large tonnage of bars, plate, sheets and track materials entered in the last week. The leading producer part of t'nlted States Steel, is running 84 per cent capacity. Higher quotations on ateel products have given the Pitts burgh market more flrmneaa than it has had in some time, with exe cutives confident of continued prosperity Into 1926. The ad vance by American Sheet and Tin Plate is understood to be for Im mediate shipment, since the booka are not yet opened for first quar [ ter 1926 orders.
