Soft Coal Merger Plans Between Pittabore and River Companies
Negotiations proceed for a soft coal merger between the Pittabore Coal Company of Pittsburg Virginia and the Mongahhela River Consolidated, with an authorized capitalization of 110 million and assets around 31.2 million. The plan aims to create the world’s strongest bituminous concern, reduce competition, and have Pittabore as lessee while expanding output and streamlining operations. Directors from both firms may join a larger Pittsburg board, and a bond issue of about 10.09 million by the river company was previously proposed.
