CHANCE OF AN

<C??yri(tit. 1925. by Tit* Aittinrr)
New York. 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.

American Industrie* were the
'same today a* they were before
tradt-rs in Wall street were sent
scurrying alter margins of aafety
instead of margins of profit. 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.
