ed tomorrow.
The District has had a contract for
the delivery of anthracite coal, but

OF 100000 for coal, makes the con.

for bituminous coal was cancelled by
the Commissioners, December 80, be
cause % the alleged failure of the
contractors to orpivde IL.
Mr.. Hargrove today sent to dealers
letters stating that the District will

Valley coal, 355 tons of white egg
coal, 327 tons of white ash stove coal.
eighteen tons OF furnace coal, and two

which may be in extra session." the
letter reads, "the Commissioners will
again ask for additional appropriation
and use their best efforts to obtain
early action, but in the meantime the
District must be supplied with fuel"
