The avalanche of fuel is the result of the city officials’ frenzied .efforts to get coal when the plant was threatened with a shut down a few weeks ago. "It seems like everyone we ever talked to about coal has gone ahead and sent us some," said members of the board of work: Just a few days ago 105 car loads of coal were at the plant waiting to be unloaded and this morning 32 morn car loads were on hand. Six car loads. were rejected by the board this morn- j ing and ordered returned to the shipper. The Decatur light and power plant has a six week's supply of coal. WANT ADS EARN-4—s—«|
