OIL SUPPLANTS
COAL As FUEL
Special Dispatch to me can.

TACOMA, April because Califor-
mia oil is still gradually supplanting
coal as fuel for steam producing pur-
poses, less coal is being used on the Pa
cific Coast than for many years past
This is the conclusion reached by c..
r. Claghorn. manager of the Northern
Pacific Railway coal department. after
an investigation. Claghorn came here
several months ago from the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad service to take charge
of the Northern Pacific coal property,
following the appointment of former
Manager Horn as general manager of
the Northern Pacific.
Claghorn has reached the conclusion
that oil fuel has passed the expert
mental stage. It's effect upon the coal
market is such that the great mines
at Roslyn are now running with small
forces and working only three or four
days a week. Claghorn believes that oil
has come to stay as the most econom-
ical fuel for the lighter railroad grades
and for the many steamers plying on
Puget Sound to Alaska and up and
down the Pacific Coast.
