COAL SHORTAGE
AUCKLAND GASWORKS

There is barely sufficient coal in store to keep the works running until Monday next, and the company's engineer and manager has advised the directors that it will be expedient to reduce the pressure after 7.30 p;m. on Wednesday, Thursday, and . Saturday next, in order to'economise in the consumption of sjas.
