In Portland the condi tion la different, as th dealers here have no great surplus. ' Besides this the dealers say that coal Is now cheaper, and has been since April, than the reduction in San Fran cisco makes the product there. Coal is being sold to the $an Francisco deal ers for $9 a ton. while it is given to the consumer 'for 112 instead of 116. tho price that has prevailed up to the time of the reduction.
