Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, August 5. —The breaking off of negotiations between the anthracite operators and mine workers at Atlantic City gave a se- vere blow to the entire coal industry. That is the opinion of many dealers and consumers of coal, and is ex pressed irrespective of whether they believe miners or operators are re- sponsible for the break, or whether a strike finally results. Consumers, they say, are tired of having their businesses or comfort Jeopardized every couple of years or 50 by wage and condition disputes which threaten supplies or involve ad- ditional prices. This feeling is not confined to anthracite alone. Bitu- minous users, as well as_anthracite consumers, are turning sharply to- ward the use of other fuels. Negotiations May Be Renewed. 1t is noted by consumers, of course, that the Atlantic City negotiations have not heen definitely broken off. They can be resumed at any time either side has a_change of heart. In this they resemble nearly every other wnge conference in_the past. One business man of Wilkes-Barre says the rapidly changing attitudes remind him of a girl plucking petals from a daisy and chanting “He loves me, he loves me not.” “All such wage conferences are at tended by much the same phenomena,” satd an official of the Miners' Bahk of Wilkes Barre, “with charges and counter charges by hoth sides. The situation this year, however, is a little unusual in that the producing companies have not made much money. No one can tell what the men finally will decide to do about closing the mines, but it is to be “Politics” is the word that is being hurled back and forward between the rival parties. But if it were not ex pected to play politics, consumers ask why it should be mnecessary to allow two months for negotiations which seemingly could be concluded easily in two days? These charges of play ing politics not only include moves likely to affect political figures in Pennsylvania and the Natlon, but those in the coal companies and the unions Union's Position Doubtful. is asserted that some of the leaders are none too sure of positions with regard to their anizations. The miners have if possible, they wigh to hracite and bituminous s separate, but there are 1mors that a suspension in the hard coal field September 1 might be followed by a drastic move on the part of the soft coal diggers So far as working the miues. union anthracite miners walk 1t union their sald that, keep the controvers if the out, sylvania law provides that to work | as an anthracite miner it is necessary [to have a State license. which can | only be obtained by working two years in the anthracite field in & sub- stdiary capacity. Practically all min- ers who have complied with these re- quirements are union members. While the loophole for arriving at a settlement still is open, it now seems doubtful if either side will be in a hurry to rush through it. If the statements of leaders are to be be leved, neither side wants Govern- ment or State Intervention. But it is doubtful if an adequate basis for any possible intervention would present ftself until the mines actually were clo: Sonthern Ry (5). 100% 100% South Ry pf (5). 90% 91 Spicer Mfg 31% 31% Spicer pf (8).... 105 105 Std Gas & EI1(3). 58% 59% Std G&IIDE (4). 5414 Bdts tand Mill (5)... 76 St Oil Calif (2).. 56% StONNIT (1). 41% StOIIN J pf (7). 117% Std Plate Glass..

Persist- {ent European buying of future deliv- erles was also said to be in progress and there were further 'pessimistic crop advices from Canada. Free sell- ing, a good deal of which appeared to | be of a profit-taking character, was in evidence on the bulges, and led to sharp reactions at_times. The open- ing, % off to 7% up, September 1.60%3 to 161 and December, 160 to 1.6013, was followed by a moderate general setback, and then by an up- turn_that lifted September to 1.61% and December to 1.61%. Corn and oatsslacked support. Af- ter opening at %, decline to iy ad- vance, September 1.05% to 1.06, the corn market made a little further gain in some cases and then receded all around to well below yesterday's finish. .

PARIS, that the Bank of Fr gold from its reserve gathered from disy ing that the F eral on Monday received §6, from Paris, caused cial circles today. Tt erable peculation French government had new policy of sending gold to cover interest payments to America I than buying dollars on the open mar- ket. It is authoritiatively learned here, however, thai the gold was not a part of the bank's reserve, but v was held there for safekeeping, never having figured in the balance sheet There are two versions of the o of the metal shipped to New Y One is that it was the accumulation resulting from exchange operations effected for the government in vari- ous Dutch and Swiss financial cer ters, the coin chiefly being in Swiss francs, which are now at a premium over the dollar. It is understood the transaction was carried out with the full ap- proval of the French treasury The other hypothesis is that the gold was the balance or a part of the balance of the gold that the Bol- shevik government turned over to Germany under the Brest-Litovsk treaty and which subsequently was turned over to the allied powers. The explanation credited in f cial circles is that Finance Minister Cafllaux, knowing that this gold was Iving idle in the bank vaults and serving neither to help French ex- change, nor to swell the bank’s gold reserve, decided it might be used to good advantage in the p of interest coming due on ¥ gations to the United S lieving pressure on nce would have resulted from buying dol- lars. On Monday, payment of-$10.000,000 interest on the $400,000,000 owed on war supplies was made to the Ameri- can Government by France, notice of the receipt of this payment, in_the form of a check in New York, being ‘received at the Treasury in Wash- ington. It was in satisfaction of the semi-annual interest charges due August 1. The transaction has no relation to the French war debt to the United States, the $400,000,000 obligation having been contracted after the war by France’s purchage of surplus sup- plies of the American expeditionary forces.
