The Snyder Mfg Co being a large user of coal, entered into separate contracts with several coal companies. In each contract it was agreed that the coal company would supply coal during the entire year in such amounts as the manufacturing company might desire to order, at a price of $ per ton. In February, the Snyder Company ordered tons of coal from Union Coal Company, one of the contracting parties. Union Coal Company delivered tons of the order and then notified Snyder Company that no more deliveries would be made and that it denied any obligation under the contract. In an action by Union Coal to collect $ per ton for the tons of coal delivered, Snyder files a counterclaim, claiming damages of $ for failure to deliver the additional tons of the order and damages of $ for breach of agreement to deliver coal during the balance of the year. What contract, if any, exists between Snyder and Union?
