Reduction of Fuel in Frisco
Market Does Not Af
fect Portland.
r
Portland coal dealers declare that the
reduction of 13 a ton on Australian coal
-announced for San Francisco by the
Western Fuel company yesterday will
have bo effect on the Portland market.'
It is pointed out by the Portland dealers
that the reason for the reduction in
San Francisco was that there -were 160,
000 tons on, hand, that the dealers there
were overstocked and had to realise on
their surplus. 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. Portland dealers are
payina- 38.60 for their Australian coal.
Land are selling it at $11.50 a ton. Wy
oming coal, tne kock springs variety.
is selling to the consumer for 39 a ton.
Dealers sav that there will be no
change In. the price Either of Austral
ian coal or of the Wyoming. Neither
do they expect a rise in price as the
season acrvances. though tbey tnrow out
the hint that rail conditions and demand
may change their expectations an force
the price up as the winter advances.
