LOCAL COAL DEALER
PRESENTS FACTS ON, :
+ COAL. SITUATION HERE
Smith Robinson Lumber Com:
pany Wants E oppression Of
Opinion From Consumers

= In view Of the fact that receipts
bf coal shipment here recently show
marked increase in price and no
hope. for a settled market within the
very near future, the Smith-Ro binsoq
Lumber company, local retailers, re-
quests thru The Pioneer an express
sion of opinion from the local con-
sumers. The company. wishes to
know, whether or not those who have
placed their orders for coal wish to
leave them on the books and. have
them filled at the lowest possible
prevailing price or whether they,
wish them cancelled at once. ,..rS
In bringing this fact to the pub
lie eye, Mr.. Smith desires to do the
best he can under the present cir.
a,imstances. He does not feel, how
ever, that he can go ahead with ord
ers unless those who have ordered
are willing to stand by the market
situation with him: r..
Two weeks ago shipment was re-
ceived by this company, softs lump
coal billed at $3.50 per ton. Anoth-
er shipment in less than a week aft
erward showed an increase IN billing
to Sill. The last shipment of the
same kind of coal is billed at $3.50.
Thi9 shows an increase in the price
Of soft lump coal of $4.10 per ton In
two weeks time. Other kinds Of coal
are increasing in like proportion.
This company has endeavOred to
place orders with the wholesalers for
| a winters supply of all kinds Of coal
but has not succeeded since : COM
panies are not taking contracts un-
der any consideration. All ship
ments to the retailers are being bill
ed at the prevailing price at the time
of shipment.
To show the public the actual cost
of coal delivered to the consumer bas-
ed on the price of the last shipment
of soft coal received by this company
these figures have been prepared
by Mr.. Smith. Added to the $3.50
billing price for the wholesaler, there
are, added 1910 for freight per ton,
IS cents for unloading, $l,50 for
delivery to the first zone, eight cents
war tax, 81 margin to the deal Ter,
making total Of 1885 per ton to
the consumer in the first zone.a For
deliveries in the second zone, an adj
ditional rs cents is required, and
likewise still another Is cents for
delivery in the third zone.

CHARGED WITH MURDER.

Frank Nichols, colored, who was
captured few days ago at Tunica,
Miss, and lodged in Jail here, charged
with the murder of Frank Lasatta
was given preliminary hearing before
Judge Chidsey Tuesday Nlorning and
committed to Jail without benefit of
bail to await the action of the grand
jury
Lasatta, an employe of the Inter
national Shpbuilding Co., was found
desperately wounded on Jackson
avenue about $50 o'clock on the night
of Sept. 3, 1918. He was shot in the
back, the the bullet penetrating the
abdomen. The bullet was removed
by local physician and the wounded
man sent to an infirmary at Mobile,
where he died shortly after. His state
ment to the sheriff was that he was
walking along the railroad track, when
he met a negro who ordered him to
throw up his hands. He turned an ran
and the negro shot him.
Suspicion was directed to Nichols
some time after the crime. He left
Pascagoula several months ago and
was only recently located. Nichols
wife is being held as an accomplice.
