THE COAL BILL.
GOING IT OH DOWN? (By Tclenrapli—rrcss Association.) Dunedin, April 1. The "Star" says: "Inquiries locally made go to show that the price of coal lias a downward tendency, not upward. It is nonsense to talk about the increased cost of handling coal on vessels seeing that shipping companies have not raised the freight rate on coal, which is carried by contract. The extra money paid to waterside workers is counterbalanced by the increased charges placed on general cargo."
