the kennebec river but which arrived
too late on account of the river having
been closed by ice, the situation as
regards the Augusta coal supply IS
es sier. but the local dealers have some
difficulty in filling the orders Of Gus
toners as the coal has to be handled
twice and there is a scarcity of teams.
The coal has to be hauled from the
cars and dumped into the sheds to
be delivered later to customers. and the
two movements keeps all Of the avail
able teams busy. Many of the people of
the city have empty or nearly empty
coal bins in their cellars. and so great
is the demand that coal has to be de-

pie supplied until the opportunity ar
rives when coal can be delivered in
