Coal Relief Arrives to Avert Shortage at Local Works
Five fattotes gained relief yesterday enabling management to tide over shortages. Bright coal cars reached Hass works last night with Seymour Boyd securing delivery. Foundry use will keep the company operating for a time, while Kerr Murray works may soon receive a carload from Wabash. Until further relief the plant will burn wood and holds for about two weeks. Electric works have yet to receive consignments, so night shifts will be cut until coal arrives.
