ROUGH
IN THE
HARBOR
Heavy Storm Hustled Craft Back
Into Port and Crews Kept
Lively Protecting Their Craft

The heavy wind and rain OF today made
the harbor more than ordinarily lively
place. although the number OF arrivals
was not out OF the ordinary The in
coming craft all reported heavy weather
last night and early today.
The live steamers came into port on
good time today but outside all of the
craft found a heavy sea. Besides there
was fog early this morning that made
navigation not without danger. and the
weather was thick and dirty at best.
The tug Battler started out today for
New York with a tow OF four barges, the
j. M. Mulholland. the Abbie Dunn. the
Santee and the Irwin. The tug got well
down towards Warwick light and then
finding the weather promised to continue
dirty and the sea was heavy and the wind
high. Captain Smith concluded to return.
On board the craft lying in the harbor
there was a good deal OF activity making
all snug and keeping the vessels from
dragging down and fouling each other,
but no III results followed. because OF
the precautions taken. The mariners
who were safe at anchor or on shore
felt themselves fortunate, for to be at
sea under the weather conditions OF today
means lots OF hard work, TO say nothing
OF the dangers.

TO COME
Congestion in Harhor Is Not Re.
|i8ved by tho MiIdsr Weather.
Arrivals Keep Up Surplus.

There has been little. II any. relief 30
far as the congested condition OF the
harbor by vessels coal laden Ia concerned.
and there is now close to 10000 tons of
coal awaiting dlscharging. The greatest
effort OF the Consolidated road is directed
towards discharging the vessels that are
now awaiting turn. and the string OF
vessels that have arrived during the week
have kept pace with the discharging.
1t is fact that. despite the activity OF
the Consolidated road. there is a scarcity
OF both anthracite and steam coal In the
interior and from nearly every town and
city inland to any extent tho dealers
have received demands which cannot be
filled. The one reason is the scarcity OF
cars.
The tax on the resources OF tho Consol-
idated road at every coal receiving port
has been far In excess OF any condition
formerly experienced and the company
has not the cars to handle the coal that
could be handled IL there was a surplus
OF cars.
There is one local firm that has orders
the railroad company cannot supply the
cars. And the orders are for immediate
delivery. The demand still exists outside
OF the receiving ports. II will be seen.
But this is only one case
From Thursday afternoon up to this
morning upwards OF 20, 900 tons of coal
arrived, and the captains OF the majority
OF tho vessels reported to the Consoli-
dated roads agents. These vessels will
have to await their turn and the de-
murrage Is piling up at n rate that would
seem prohibitive had the consignees fore
seen that this condition would obtain.
Just at present II is quite as profitable
to have n vessel held on demurrage as
Ii Is TO have vessel active in trans
portat tion. for freight rates are dropping
steadily. The prevailing rate between
this port and New York Is 65 cents a
ton. and 1t ranges from 81 TO s1.10 for
and Newport News.
There Is some activity In the coal maA-
ket. despite the fact April Is but
month of, and there is no immediate
prospect Of any reduction In price. The
rates for coal remain unchanged The
local dealers are catching up on their
orders John r. White a Sons Is four
or five days behind while the Eastern
Coal company is at least a week and per-
haps ten days behind.
The Eastern Coal company has award
ed the contract for rebuilding the Pom
roy station OF tho company, recently
burned, 10 the ]. W. Bishop Co, and 1t
will take at least a couple OF months TO
reconstruct tn station. The company Is
using the barges Grahams Polly and
Moonbeam as lighters and Is lghtering
one Of the big tramp steamers at this
station. The hghtering will continue 30
long as necessary.
The new tower at the Interstate sta
ton was put into service yesterday for
the first time. This more than doubles
the capacity of the station for discharg-
ing. The facilities Of all the pockets
were handicapped during the first of the
week by the snow and ice and the storm
Of today has prevented much active work
being done, some OF them being obliged
to stop work.
