ALL LIVERY RIGS HIRED FOR FRIDAY Also Impossible to Secure Automobiles As All Are Reserved.-

The demand for livery rigs and automobiles for July 4 has been greater than the supp-y, according to local liverymen, and it is practically impossible to get any at this time, only a few of the liveries which do not hire their horses in advance because of funerals have rigs for rent. The people of Richmond are evidently contemplating spending the 'fourth" in the rural districts dreading the roar and din of the city. As usual Glen Miller park and Jackson's park will be l'opular places for picnickers. COAL PRICES TAKE ' JUMP IN RICHMOND Hard Coal Advances Ten Cents and Soft Coal Twenty-Five Cents. STRIKE THE CAUSE Because of the strike of laborers In the West Virginia coal mines and the scarcity of soit coal, an advance in price will be made by local dealers sometime this month. A ten cent increase in price has already been made in hard coal and one dealer has ad vanced the price of soft coals 25 cents. The supply of hard coal is small and dealers predict that because the consumers are not buying hard coal stoves, it will in time become an unknown product in this section of the country. The present price Is not expected to drop. . Chestnut coal Is now selling at J8.20 per ton and will be advanced ten cents on the- ton. Anthracite coal is selling for $7.95. Local dealers have different prices on the coals and while some advance the price of coal in accordance with - the advance made to them by the operators, others fix their own prices. Some of the dealers will make an advance of 25 cents per tpn on anthracite coal and 50 cents per ton on Pocahontas coal. Just when the, advance in the cost of soft coals will be made is not known by the dealers, but they expecfit'the latter part of July. ' M ) A fittU Touch.
