Relief From Coal Famine

Relief From Coal Famine

Cincinnati, Oct. 9. - Temporary relief from the pressure of the coal scarcity in Cincinnati is in sight in a novel way. Eight towboats at Point Pleasant, at the mouth of Kanawha river, are ready to start with one million bushels of coal. The rise in the Ohio is to be augmented by throwing down all the dams in the Kanawha. This, it is understood, will produce sufficient depth of water to bring the barges to this city, where they ought to arrive Saturday.
