COAL FOR BIDDEFORD.
Dealers Expect 1900 Tons, This Week,

Bddeford Me-, Dec. 21.-NeXt week. it
is expected that 1900 tons of anthracl tie
anu bitumincus coal will be received in
this city. where there has been coal
famine for the past 10 days. The loca
company has not had a pound of coal
for sale.
Two members of the company went to
Philadelphia. this week, after coal. they
found the city filled with representatives
of concerns from all over New England.
The dealers in the mining districts are
doing d cash business and will not sci!
any coal or even talk with man who
asks credit.
The hard coal landed in this city will
cost the local concern $13.25 per ton, and
they will sell it for S15. No price mas
been set on the soft coal but that vii.
be about the same. the dealers say. Tn.>
IS the highest price that coal has ever
reached in this city, and the local dealers
do not offer any encouragement tina
there will be any decline in the rate, this
winter.
If there is no demand for the cargo
that is to arrive, next week, at S1o, II
will be shipped to a Maine city which
has already offered to take the entire
cargo at that price. ~
The prospect is a gloomy one as there
are hundreds of people who have no coal
and cannot afford to pay sl5 a ton for it.
The schools will not be opened until /,
fresh SUPPLY is received. Some of toe

Porto Rico, Samuel McCune Lindsay,
says that the poorest schools there are
as good and in some respects better
than the poorest of the same grade in

although the every day output of the
elementary schools cannot be compared
with that of the best city schools of the
same grade in the States. An Ameri-
can free public school now exists in
every municipality in Porto Rico.
The school year closed, last June
with S74 schools open, 1898 pupils en-

were reported among the fleet which
rode out Tuesdays storm off the
Chatham shore. Both vessels were sup
posed to have weathered Cape Cod and
their arrival below was expected
Thursday, but up to dark, Saturday
night. neither schooner had shown up
The generally accepted explanation is
that both were blown off the coast and
are having hard time to make this
port again. AS the wind, Saturday
night, was northerly, the schooners
may be. able to make the coast, Sun
day. The Crary probably had crew
of about 13 and the Palmer 10. The
later vessel is owned by ]. s. Winslow
