BALTIMORE RECEIVES 2,940,202,000 BANANAS Special Dispatch to The Star. BALTIMORE, July 3.—Since Janu- ary approximately 2,940,202,000 ban- anas have been brought to Baltimore, shipping men estimate. ‘The number of bunches was 1,470,- 101, with an average of between 180 to 200 bananas to a bunch. BIG COAL STRIKE ISHELD UNLIKELY Fear of Electric Power and Greater Use of Oil Are Re- straining Factors. BY J. C. ROYLE. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, July 3.—Despite the loudly raised voices and vigorous gestures of both operators and miners there i3 very little probability of a Natlon-wide™ coal strike. If there should be a suspension of work in the anthracite fields, it would be short. That is the way fuel men, both on the producing and consuming sides, size up the coal situation today. They base their opinions on the new trends in business which have re- duced the chances of a strike to a minimum through economic pressure. Coal Less Important. In the last two years there have Dbeen tremendous gains in the use of ofl fuels, in the development of hvdro- electric power, which has replaced coal-burning units, in the utilization of gas and the processing of coal. Diesel engines and other Internal combustion motors have gained a strong position, not only in marine engineering, but even for railroad locomotive use. Combination gasoline | and electric drive is being tried out on & half dozen railroads where steam engines formerly were used. Neither operators nor miners can! afford to take action which would tend to turn over to these competing factors a large portion of their markets. Business Poor Just Now. Dealers and large consumers here point out that if the United Mine Workers should call a strike in union- ized mines they would simply be do- ing a favor to the non-unionized pro- ducers, whom they are especially anx- fous to drive from the fleld ‘ew of the operators of union mines would object to a close-down, since they are not making appreciable profits. Many of the mine workers in consequence, curred the attacks of President Lewis of the Mine Workers in consequence, as i3 shown by the controversy be. tween union leaders and the Consolf dated Coal Co. of which John D. Rockefeller is a shareholder. Anxious to Hold Markets. It _there should be long suspension in the anthracite feld, the markets for anthracite not only w.uld be in- vaded by the oll distributors but by the bituminous producers, and what was lost probably would not.be re- gained for vears, if at all. The opera- tors naturally do not want to see thelr markets get away from them and neither do the miners, since a smaller demand means smaller pro duction, fewer men at work and fewer union dues collected. A long strike | undoubtedly would hurt the anthra- cite industry in all its parts, and union leaders, it is belleved, will think long before they deal any sort of blow to the only part of the coal in- dustry which is prosperous. Both Sides: Must Yield. The union delegates from the an-| thracite fields have voted on what they will demand of the operators. The operators already have decided on what they will demand of the miners and will meet in the next day or s0 to make the decision official. These demands represent what each side hopes, or would like to get. They do not necessarily represent what they are willing to accept. Neither side has left out anything, the idea being to yleld a point here to gain| one elsewhere. They have loaded the guns for the | opening of the battle over the wage agreement, but those guns have been aimed high on purpos Even If there is a suspension STAR, WASHINGTON, D. (., September 1, there will be stocks of | anthracite sufficient for demands well | into the Fall. It is claimed by the | operators that they have now reserve | stocks of 12,000,000 tons. Consump- tion during July and August should | be light_and production may rise to | around 7,600,000 tons a month up to| September 1. i (Copyrignt. 10 H VICTOR DIVIDEND WILL BE OMITTED Talking Machine Firm Needs Funds to Carry Out Special FRIDAY, FARMERS TO GET | FAIRCROP RETURNS Will Come Out Better Than in | Most Years Since 1919, Reports Indicate. Good financial prospects for farmers this year are seen by the United States Department of Agriculture, which says in its July report on the agricultural situation that ‘“given strengthening live stock markets and fair feed crops, plus fair returns from wheat and cotton, farmers would come | out of 1925 better than they have in most of the years since 1919." ““Taken as a whole, the main crops promise fairly well except in the case of Winter wheat. The present nice balance in both live stock and crop production is a tribute to the readjust- ments made by American farmers since the Fall of 1921." The central fact in the present out- look is that while production will be | needs, | 5 agriculture will not be in the market |Island Rallroad. ample to meet consumption this Fall with any large surplus of the major products. Wheat Crop Short. “Wheat harvest is {n full swing,” the report continues. ‘“The grain ripened prematurely over much of the Western part of the belt, and harvest is early. Threshings fo far have turned out unsatisfactory ylelds, but the grain s of fairly good quality. It appears evident that the Winter wheat crop is decidedly short of last year's crop; so much so that the chief con- Jecture throughout the wheat-growing world is how the shrinkage in this country will balance up against better crops “abroad. The Spring wheat region from Minnesota to Montana has high hopes in spite of some local floods in the elsewhere. Corn and Hog Outlook Good. “The outlook in t parently good. Hogs are relatively high priced and nmay go higher. The pig survey shows a decline of 11 per cent in the number of Spring pigs compared with last year. Corn prices corn belt is ap are not so high as to prohibit feeding, | and everything points to a profitabl feeding season ahead. It is from con ditions like this year, when price ratios furnish a stimulus to feeding, that the corn belt can usually hope for some degree of prosperity.” The department’s price index of 30 farm products is placed at 147 for June, compared with 146 in May, the five-year period, 1909-1914, being used as @ base of 100. Present tendencies in the general business situation point to little change in prices of non- gricultural commodities, and conse- quently no marked change in the pur- chasing power of farm products need Zast and minor setbacks | JULY SP00000000400 | P B 1925.
