ALASKAN TRADE
SHOWS DECREASE
CUSTOMS REPORT GIVES REA-
SON FOR BUSISNESS DE-
CLINE

JUNEAU. Alaska Mar. II. -
Alaska's imports and exports for
the year 1918, according to the
annual report of the collector of
customs just issued, totaled $127,-
1912. The years total of i'm
ports decreased over the total for
1917 by more than $1,000, 900. and
the decrease in exports amounted
to more than $~11,000,00O. I'm
ports last year YER $41,625,564,
as against $44,431,60O for 1917.
Exports for 1918 we're $85,523,56
as against $685. 1862 for the
year previous.
During the year 1918 the num-
Der of people arriving in Alaska
was 1927, and the number leav-
ing during the same period was
28,940, a net loss of 9,522. Dur
ing 1917 people entering the terri
tory numbered 27.7S9. and depart
ures were 1898. Births and
deaths in the territory are not in
cluded.
Accounting for the decrease in
volume in Alaska's business. the
customs report says:
1.-THE territory is wholly depend
emit upon water transportation for
the carrying of its trade, and on
account of a considerable portion
of the usual shipping being direct
ed to other channels, it became
necessary to equalize production
with marketing facilities. With
return of normal conditions during
the ensuing year 1t is predicted
that the development OF Alaska
will be renewed with vigor, the ex-
ploitation of natural resources
proceed more rapidly and it's bus
mess greatly enhanced"

LONDON, Mar. 14.-Coal queues,
the terror OF the poor of London.
have again made their appearance
because Of an acute shortage in the
coal supply, and thousands upon
thousands of persons have been
daily standing in line in the hope OF
getting enough coal to keep some
kind of fire going in their humble
homes.
A coal queue is an interesting
sight. Early in the morning the
number of customers appearing al
some distributing point exceeds the
number being disposed Of by the
coal merchant. So they line up,
in the order of their arrival, and pa
tiently wait until they are supplied,
or are told by the merchant that he
has no more-by no means an in
frequent development.
They buy in small quantities for
two eason - some of them have
little money to invest in coal at ex-
listing high prices, while the sec
ond cause is the lack of means to
remove large quantities. Often per-
ambulators provide the vehicle, but
more often the purchaser tucks his

even with a short fuel supply. But
with the mercury lowering around
20 degrees above zero, "12 degrees
OF frost, as they call 1t here, coal is
a necessity.
The shortage of coal Is ascribed
to a number of reasons. chiefly the
dilatory work of the miners who
have demanded a. six-hour working
day, and the scarcity of railroad
cars. Coal supplies in all centers
of population are far below normal,
and there is no prospect of an i'm
mediate Improvement in, the situa-
ton. Many persons have sought
other means of keeping warm. One
old man and his wife, both over 80,
have been in bed for a week be-
cause they have no coal In the
house, and their daughter cares for
them. Children also are being
kept between blankets with success,
but the sturdy of the city must
bear the burden as we'll as they can,
with mighty little prospect of relief
until the railroads are in better po-
sition, or the balmy days of spring
come to chase away the necessity
for artificial heat.
