New England Gas and Coke and Dominion Coal Sign New Contract
Boston November 29 The newly agreed coal contract between the New England Gas and Coke Company and Dominion Coal Company aims to ease past difficulties. Dominion must keep 50,000 tons on hand and may be asked to supply about 30,000 more monthly for 20 new areas, totaling roughly 1,000,000 tons annually. Gas and Coke may end the agreement on six months notice, but Dominion cannot. The deal hints at Massachusetts Gas potentially buying a coal mine to supply Everett and Boston plants independently. Dominion would gain about 50,000 dollars yearly from the increased volume.
