It turns out that there is no bunkum in the story of three hundred tons of coal breaking Le ee if “the greatly exaggerated,” as one of- ficial of the company said, why he must have heard even a bigger story than anybody else. Any- one going down to the dock can see for himself the huge gaping hole that was made when the timbers gave way and the coal plunged into the harbor. Those living near by who heard the racket about half past 7 o'clock on Friday evening imagined from the great roar which they heard that another huge blast had been shot off. But it was just coal, three hundred tons of perfectly good coal, rushing to bury itself and report was in the harbor. And there it is likely to remain. Meanwhile the wharf still stands, with some coal on it, and nothing to show for the mishap but a big hole. Through that hole went about $3,000 worth of coal.

The work of excavation for the new Premier Hotel building on the corner of Second avenue and Sixth street is rapidly nearing completion. Work is already well under way on the construc- tion of the ground floor. It has been decided not to use the per- mission granted by the city eouncil for further excavations under the sidewalk. These exca- vations would have been made in order to secure reflected light in the basement by means of tran- in the sidewalks.
