COAL SUPPLIES.
RE-ASSURING NEWS. Wellington, Nov. 26. Erom enquiries which were made to-day by a reporter, it can be stated with confidence that a coal supply is assured. “The coal question does not trouble us at all,” remarked one gentleman who is in a position to speak with authority. “We have completed arrangements which will assure us a supply for so long as we want it.” It is understood that under arrangements just made 18,000 tons of coal are to be landed in Wellington next month, and 6,000 tons will reach Auckland also next month. Further than this, offers have been received to supply coal when required up to the end of March, and sufficient will be ordered to keep the industries of the country going until at least that date.
