was said by Mr.. Bur;on, or Burton

would not be added to tie retail price
of coal by city dealers. He said that
he had had a conference with Moore
& company, regarding the matter, and
that an agreement not to advance
prices had been decided upon. Mean
time the dealers intend making effort
to- secure abatement of the 65 cents
on the ton added to the railroad
freight rate, which is considered too
high. Combined with the cost OF
handling ore here, which includes
sacking and delivery. ver reads and
trails for the most part compel the
use Of burros, the freight rate on the

Plans Of the Phelps-Dodge People Regarding
the Dawson Coal Fields, the New Road
and an Arizona CITY

From the appearance of things the
Santa Fe railroad is going to make
the Dawson coal fields of Phelps
Dodge look good to Bisbee> traders in
fuel, and likewise sooner or later to
the consumers of coal, both of the do.
nestle and industrial kind, says the
Bisbee Review.
This is the opinion warranted by a
raise of 65 cents on the ton put on
coal by the railroad freight sched-
ules lately and now effective. The
raise is understood to have come from
the freight department Of the Santa
Fee which exercises large control over
all coal shipments made into this ter
ritory at the present time to dealers
in fuel.
Coal and wood are now at high
price In the city and an addition of the
IS cents extra added to the freight
charges would put coal almost out Of
consideration as a fuel for domestic
