THE COAL SHORTAGE
Sir,—Will you permit me a suggestion re tlio above? 1 am a seafaring man, and it has often struck'me as a, waste that the debris out of the stokeholds of steamers, if properly collected and sorted by some method, would alleviate much unnecessary suffering;, if soli] in bags at a nominal figure. The City Council could do good work here, I think, by sending the carlo round the wharf everyday. They could have a yard near thft wliarf. anil the cinders could be bagged and sold to all and sundry.—! am. etc., .PERISHING. May 28, 1010.
