THE COUNTY COAL BIN.

Comptroller Kelley Tries to Learn If
Rhoads s. Healy Delivered 1870 Tons of
Coal.
Comptroller George d. Kelley had a
hearing at his Office in the Court House
Monday night on the allegation of Levy
Court Commissioner Chandler that
Rhoads & Healy did not deliver 100 tons
of coal to the Court House, although
theylssflt b bill for that quantity charg-
ing s7l5. Mr.. Chandler had asserted
that not more than 100 tons had Aeen
delivered Mr.. Chandler and William
s. iiilles, who was MI. Kelley's adviser,
attended the meeting.
Benjamin L. Healy of the coal firm
testified that on February 1ltn his teams
and men placed 81 tons of coal in the
Court House cellar, and on March l4th.
an additional 49 tons were delivered
there, making 130 tons in all. OF this
amount 30 tons was nut coal and the
remainder was pea coal. Nut coal at
the time was selling for So so ton,
and pea coal tor So. 20 ton. By making
uniform charge of So. 30 ton, he
found the bill was about the same as if
il were specifically itemized as to the
quality of coal delivered, The coal
was ordered by Levy Court Commits
sioner John Lynn, without asking for
an estimate of what it would cost.
When he hegan to deliver the coal there
was some coal of different quality IN
1 the cellar.
Janitor John Rogers said coal was
delivered some time IN March after he
was appointed. John Campbell. who
was fireman up to March 1st and con
| tinued on duty an additional month tt
instruct the new fireman, said coal wa'
delivered on two occasions, but he die

Mr.. Healy remarked that from Feb

quantities of coal, were being burne
