Total eximrta for the month were 157,009 net tons, barely half those for April. Foreign bnuker eoal dwlined from 453.000 to 344,000 tona. Shipments to New England continued at a rate above 800,000 tons. An interesting feature of the month was the dispatch of 16,000 tons of eoal from Charleston, S. C., to New England. Light on the destination of the cargo coal dumjied over Lake Erie piers during the present season may he had from the rcsirts of eoal received at Duluth-SuiieriHarbor. Up to the end of May only 4562 net tuna of anthracite had bwn received, against a minimum of 137,000 and a maximum of 291,000 tona in the five yean preceding. Kweipts of bituminous eoal were also far below normal. The 129,-14- 0 tona entering the harbor to May 31st waa less than half that in 1920, and less than a fifth of that in 1917, both years when the lake movement was delayed in starting. The small receipts in April and May are partly explained by the fart that the carry-ove- r of both hard and soft eoal from the preceding season waa exceptionally heavy thia year. On April lat stocks of bituminous coal on the Lake Superior and Lake Michigan docks were 4,004,-00- 0 tons, and storks of anthracite, 670,000 tons and the supply of bituminous eoal, 3,000,000. SHOWS INCREASE DESPITE UTAH GOES SIXTY PER CENT Tb Bitfdil Bun 8rvl. WASHINGTON, D. C, June 12. Itwo Venn from tlie holiday depression, the production of aoft coal iu the tenth week of the strike is exieete-- i to jtsss five million tons. Production of anthracite, however, remains practically aero. In the ninth week of the strike (May 29th to June 3d) the combined effect of the Memorial Day holiday and a iay day reduced producti m of bituminous coal to 4,623,000 Ions. The output of anthracite waa barely 8000 tons, and the total quantity of all eoal raised waa 4,631,000 tons. ycnr ago production, including anthracite, waa 8.400, 000 tons; in the year before that 11,100,(MH) tons, vet in neither of the yearn preceding wns the output at thia season normal, for in 1021 the business depression waa at ita most scute stage, and in 1020 the market demanded more eoal than could lie delivered. On Monday of the present week (June 5th to 10th) loadings were only 14,570 ears, but ainee then a ateady iucrcaie has been reported. On Wednesday the mark, loadings passed the 16,U00-cs- r for the first time since the strike 1 legs n, and on Thursday, June 8tb, another high record of 16,289 ears was set. The present indications are that the tenth week will exceed the eighth by at least 4 per rent, suggesting an ontpnt above five million tons. Utah mines report a production of 61 per cent, an increase over the previous week. The largest elements in the increase revealed by the detailed return of loadings on earh railroad division appear to lie heavier shipments from the Connellsvilleregion, from Eastern Kentucky and Tenessee, and from the New River district. Other factors in the larger tonnage are the quickening of demand and consequently of chip ments in the folds of the West which are now at work. In other districts also of the northern and Middle Appala-ehisn- s the alow drift hack to work eon 1 tinucs. The accumulation of nn eoal at the mines has fallen rapidly during the last wwk. The consumers' stocks of both anthracite and bituminous eoal are being drawn upon stead fly. As the present rate of consumption it is not known arenrately, the amount withdrawn from storage each week can not lie stated. The deadlock in the hnthraeite region continues. Production during the week ended June 3d was limited to 151 ran of steam sizes dredged from the riven. So far as known to the geVog-iea- l survey no eoal is produced at the mines and washeries. The estunat-output 8000 tons was only a luilr of 1 per cent of that in the eorrcHponil-in- g wwk of 1921. Production during the present eun1(year, which licgan Ap- ril 1, but 1922, has thus far amounted to thousand tuns. In other words, the anthracite working voa is well advanced and production is f.f-tw- n million net tons short of that in the eorresiHmding period of last year. Shipments continue from the storage yards of the producers, hut a sharp decline in the quantity going forwnrl is indicated hy reports for the week f Jnne M The numlier of unhill 1 cars sixty-thre- e IDE of snhraacite at the mines is also clining. In the ninth wwk of ths strike the daily average number of unronsiirned loads of bituminous coal was 6312. This figure includes all unbilled coal held by all of the carriers. The total is now hardly a fifth of that in the wwk of April 8th. The mine nqiorts fur the week ended May 27th show production at the highest point readied up to that time during the present strike. The total output for that week was 4,889,000 tons, an increase of 9 per cent over the preceding wwk. The increase waa made possible hy the alow return of striking miners in certain fields, and by the success of the railroads in furnishing ears in abundance in practically ell regions. In these districts of Eastern Kentucky Harlan, Hazard, and also in Northeaatern Kentucky which bad recently reiorted loss through tr"s-portatio- n diaability, marked improvement occurred. It should be remembered that the term tranaitortation diaability" includes many causes lack of ears. In this instance the difficulty waa not the number of can, for other carriers originating no eoal because of the strike eould furnish extra ears. It waa rather congestion at yards and sidings rauaed by the record movement of Middle Appalachian eoal into the territory north of the Ohio. Because of the Memorial Day holiday it ia difficult to interpret the of beehive coke in the week ended June 3d. For the country as a whole the output showed no increase, and in Pennsylvania, particularly hi the Connellaville district a decrease occurred. From rports of cars of coke g loaded hy the 22 princqial roads it is estimated that the total production was 97,000 tons. In the Cunnellsville region, according to the Courier of that city, while production decreased, the number uf plants iu blast increased. The strike has had but little effect upon the total volume of eoal handled over Hampton Roads piers, for the deficit in ahipnienla from the New River and Kanawha fields has I icon lajgcly made up by an Increase in tonnage from other fjelds supplying the port. In the week ended June 3d the total quantity dunqied was 409,413 net e. tons, almut the aame as the week In seasons of most active business the port has handled 550, 0iV) or even 600,000 tons a wwk. The eff vl of the strike ia apparent in the ward of coal duniied over tidewater pieis in May. There was a aliarp decline in the tonnage handled hy New York, s Philadelphia and Baltimore. Duni-ingat New York dropped from ('43,-00- 0 net tons in April to 264,000 tons; 175.-Otdumpings at Philadelphia, from to 84.000 tons; at Baltimore from 102, (NM) to 43,000 tons. At Hampton Roads, however, the May business exceeded that of April by 133,000 tons. Total dumpings at all ports were tons, as against 2,540,0(10 tons in April. The decrease occurred chiefly in exiHirts and in foreign bunker ALL SHOULD ATTEND Price Chamber of Commerce announces a public meeting to be held st City Hall next Monday night at N o'clock.
