Coal Price Hike Planned for October First
Des Moines advices indicate a coal price increase on October first, with $3.75 per ton rising to $4 in many outlets. Dealers claim no formal agreement, yet most quote the same rate. Some mine-owning firms will honor September loads at $3.75, while others cannot. The Iowa coal report spurs expectations of a tighter supply as Des Moines area operators anticipate a record winter demand amid a coal shortage from Illinois and eastern sources.
