Harrison's circular says:
Since the Mariposa left the following car
goes of Australian coal were delivered here,
Star of Bengal. 1874 tons; Cypromene. 2756
tons. total TO- 70S tons. The total arrivals from
Newcastle and Sydney for the past three
months only foot up little over 10000 tons.
This is marked shrinkage from former years
for the same period, but we now anticipate
in the Year We have identically the same
number of vessels the engaged list when
our last mail left, thirty-seven vessels with
a carrying capacity of about 80 900 tons; twelve
of these are now en- route with about $4,000
tons. The latest cabled coal freight quota
lions on coal for early loading are l5s Cd
from Newcastle, with a slight shading for
later loading; Evidently there is scarcity of
tonnage in Australian waters, as carriers are
preferring to load for nitrate ports, rather than
for here If there should be an active demand
for grain carriers at fair figures, this would
prove an incentive for shipowners to seek this
port. but for the moment this branch is at
standsttl Notwithstanding the light deliver
les of Colonial fuel there is no apparent scare
ity, demonstrating the ability of our coast col
would appear to have been ill-timed judgment
for Newcastle owners to have advanced their
prices for 1899. high freights and high-priced
coal combined will divert business from their
product
