gions by shortage, the visible supply
in this city being about 300 tons. The
price now is 50 per ton, but only
ton lots can be secured of local deal
ers at that figure. Parties who have
usually made their purchases of this
commodity in May and June are UNI
able to do so this season as local deal
ers cannot guarantee future deliveries
or prices and this morning the repre-
sentative of II. A. Dubuc, the coal
dealer III this city, when interviewed
by Journal reporter, said that Mont
pelier dealers or in fact any dealers
in so remote a section from the coal
fields as Vermont would be unable to
get IA pound of coal for some weeks
| yet
| Local dealers do not care to part
with an ounce of the coal now on
! hand as every ton of it is nee essary to
meet emergency orders through the
early summer Mr. Dubuc's repre-
sentative SAID that if strike affairs dc
not take a turn for the better within
a day or two that the price of coal in
this city will go up by jumps
Even with the strike adjusted with
in a few days it will be impossible fol
local dealers to receive their annua
supply as railroads are rushed hand
ling the wheat crop from certain sec
tions and there is already a shortag
