Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, August ~The threat of an anthracite strike Septem ber 1 cast a lengthening shadow over the coal markets of the country last week, says Coal Age. To the bitu- | minous producers it was a very friend- ly shadow indeed, quickening demand both df tly and indirectly and add- ing a firmer undertone to current prices. The influence, of course, was most strongly marked the move. ment of soft coals suitable for domes- tie consumption, where the combin; tion-of the strike threat and the sea sonal pick-up in that branch of the trade was felt over the entire broad streteh of territory from the Canadian border to Alabama and fi n Utah and Atantic Ocean A number of contrs long been hanging fi closed.
