tha present fuel famine In Portland and
throughout tha atata of. Oregon, and

But the dealers, do not bellev that the

tha purpose of boosting the price but
la order to fore from the 'railroads a
reduction In tba high tariff of tt a ton
which now prevails. , N
While tha present famine conditions
In tha local market ara not looked upon
wlh any great degree- of complaJsanc
by tha dealers, at tha same time they
ar not anticipating any absolute dearth
of coal,, although admitting that what
foreign coal is now in tha market la
