JTWKt fflc" HIGQINS SENT 10 HIS ME COOS BAY TIMES, MARSHF1ELD, OBEGON.THURSDAY JULY DEPENDENT ON Rose City Compelled to Secure Additional Shipments of Product. FROM THE PUGET SOUND Commodity Has to Be Transported By Rail From AVestern Wash ington to the Port. Portland at present Is In the throes of a coal famine, and during the pinch tho Redondo Is bringing ship ments from Puget Sound. Tho Port land Telegram has the following In connection with It: Three hundred tons of coal were brought from Pugot Sound to Port land by the steamer Redondo, which arrived last night on her third round trip on this route. In addltidn to the fuel, she carried 30 tons of paper, a quantity of hides and house hold goods. The operators of the Redondo have made arrangements for her to bring regular shipments of coal from the Sound, the consignment she carries this trip being among the first of fered. It comes from tho Black Dia mond mine, in western Washington, and Is said to be equally as good as any coal which has been placed on the local market. At any rate tho navigation company has concluded to handle the product until the fuel shortage gets les acute. With the Redondo carrying coal from the North and the steamer Breakwater from Coos Bay, it is be lieved plenty of fuel will be on hand to met all requirements until the deep, water colliers arrive from the Antipodes, Japan and Europe. Some of these are believed to be nearing tho Columbia river. There are more than twenty vessels In the fleet, and they have something like 0,000 tons of coal. The Redondo and the Breakwater arrive at Portland once every week. During tho next two or three months they will handle an aggregate of C.'OOO or 7,000 tons of coal, and will bring It In at such regular Intervals as to make the product available whenever needed. In tho next GO dys many of the off-shore colliers will be putting in an appearance. The Redondo will sail for Puget Sound Thursday night on tho return voyage. Captain Bendegard, her master, says he is more than pleased with tho manner In which business of the lino is improving. He ex plains that on every successive trip tho steamer has been taking out greater quantities of freight, and if traffic continues to increase at the present rate it will be necessary for the company to add another steamer to the line. Much of tho freight tho steamer will take out on this trip will be made up of goods for trans shipment on tho Sound to Alaska. Tho Redondo will connect nt Seattle with tho Hyades, which is scheduled to sail for Nome and other Alaska points. FATHER EDW.
