Fuel by City of. Chicago.
CHICAGO. Jan. 31..The distribution of
bituminous coal at cost price by the city
was inaugurated to-day. Hundreds of per-
sons, mainly women. gathered at the city
collectors office and at the various points
of distribution throughout the city, and it
was demonstrated early in the day that the
estimate of 80 tons day would prove in
adequate To meet the demand. A hurried
consultation resulted i'm the restricting of
the amount sold to each person to one-half
ton, instead of ton, originally planned.
Ii is estimated that 200 tons would be re-
quired to meet the demands of the first
day.
A schedule OF prices varying according
to the cost of delivering the fuel to the dis
tributing points was fixed. ranging from
500 to $2.35. 1T will be impossible to fully
meet the demand" said Commissioner of
Public Works Block. who is in charge of
the municipal coal yard, but we hope to
be able to secure large enough daily sup
ply, to prevent suffering from absolute
want. We shall have at least eco tons day
to sell. and doubtless could get an adequate
supply if the. railroads could deliver 1t
