Coal trade steadies after shock from Coxe Bros cut
The Philadelphia Record reports the coal trade has firmed after a 40 cent per ton cut rumored by Coxe Bros. & Co. and followed by others. Talks on Coxe Bros. selling to Jersey Central are uncertain, and Wolverton insists production limits are needed for healthy prices. Wanamaker disavows any Lehigh Valley presidential bid, while Wilbur of Lehigh Valley shows no plan to retire. Scranton to Pittston tramway expansion nears completion, and Reading reorganizers secure $4 million of an $8 million mortgage.
