Harrisons circular says: Since the Ala
media left the following carsoes of Australian
coal have been delivered here, viz: Du Cues
elm 219S tons; General de Charette, 1908 tons;
Port Patrick 272s tons; Sea King, 2160 tons;
total 10 142 tons There are in the engagement
list twenty-one vessels, loading and afoat with
q capacity OF about $4,000 tons; Of these only
three are due this month, hence the STOCK on
hand Of Australian will become almost MI
next month. Colonial fuel is being displaced
by our local coast collieries the cost de-
liyered here of the former is too high although
the Goals from Newcastle are very popular with
some consumers. but the deliveries Tor the past
six months are diminishing, and are too spas
modic and irregular. The prevailing frelght
rates and the high cost of coal at sydney ana
Newcastle make shipments almost prohibltory.
The exceptional draft this year from Australia
for the Honolulu market has diverted Vessels
frem this port, and has forced frelghts up
so that tonnage for here IS absolutely unob-
tainable at covering rates. This rush of fuel
to Honolulu Will diminish materially in the
next six months. the moving OF troops 10
the front must ease off before that time and
transports will be gradually dropped out OF
the service A number of these same steamers
will eventually drift into coal carrying on the
coast here and freights will decline In that
line in 1900. say about twelve months hence.
