Plentiful, but DeliTerles Are Uncertain. It Is said that within a week the only coal in Portland - will oe that lately brought, in from Nowcastle, TC. 8. "W., on the ship Leon XIII ( toy the Pacific Coast Company. While the officials of the com pany say that the coal will be sold for lO.SO a ton. it is said by other, dealers that as soon as this firm discovers that It has the coal situation in its own grasp it will raise the price to an enormous figure. They cite a- similar Instance in Seattle. All fuel dealers are still behind with orders, while the pfione calls keep many clerks buy throughout the day. All comers arp told that they will have to await, their turn, as there- are not enough teams to deliver, the; wood as fast as it la ordered. " "We expect to- bejaMn unloading: the Leon JX 1 1 1 next Wednesday morning." said A. L. Stephens," of the Pacific Coast Com pany, last night." Tjie coal will then be ready for delivery, and if we had men and teams enough we could deliver coal to all our customers Wednesday. We are now about three days behind with deliv ering and have orders ahead for about soo tons. "This Newcastle coal 'cost us 2 a ton more than the last we had In, but we will sell It for $10.30 a ton. despite the faot that it is practically the only coal In town. On February 15 -we expect to have another targo of coal ready for delivery.' This, we' are getting from Japan." "Our phone has runs at an average rate of 32 times a minute today," said Jamea A. Reeves, manager of the- Rock. Springs Coal Company, yesterday. "Before we can bans; up the receiver we have another call. We - are delivering coal as fast as w possibly can ' with alf the men and teams we fean And. and have enough coal to last about a week, If it continues to sell-ut the present rate.

Tf we could a;et It we could take care of ten cars, a day. each car . con talning from 25 to 30 tons. We are sell ing our coal at $10.50 a ton. while the same kind of coal selling in San Fran cisco for 18 ja. ton." The Independent Coal & Ice Company is said to be selling its coal for 113 a ton. It has. a little more than a" week's sup ply on hand. ' " "We are still behind with our orders," said "W. S. Howland of the East Side Slab Wood Company, yesterday. There is plenty- of slabwood.

After discussing the ordinance of Councilman ICellaher providing- for the repeal of the present occupation tax, the Council, ways and means committee decided yesterday to defer action on the measure. The ordinance la not -without friends on the eonuntttee. but it Is hardly probable that.lt will be recommended for passage. ' It Is -certain that, no effort, wtll be made to pass the ordinance in Its present form.- Auditor "Devlitv. ".""ex plained to the committee that the' docu ment is too general in character and, if It is -passed, certain sections of the present ordinance will have to be par ticularized for- revocation. Councilman Bennett expressed him self as favorable to doing- away with the occupation .tax, which, he said, was passed to tide over a time . of. special depression of the city's finances, and. is no longer needed. Other members of tho committee were- of the opinion that the tax is all right and should be maintained. If the saloon license is raised and is found to ofpet the $6.f00 receipts from the occupation tax.- tha. latter may be revoked. . i .- Councilman Beldlng appeared before the committee In support' of the ordi nance, which he Introduced some time ago, for the purpose of allowing em ployes In all departments of the city government a vacation' of 10 days with full pay each year. He asserted 'that inasmuch as the clerical force and em ploye of the police and - Are depart ments are - allowed . vacations. they should be made general, it developed that there . Is at .present no ordinance allowing vacations, and '. that they are granted. . by the -"Executive- Board. The Belding" ordinance was 'left on the table.: ""' HE CLAIMS V INDIAN LAND , ...... . .
