FIRST SHIPMENT OF COAL TO PARAGUAY.
The first shipment of coal ever made to Paraguay
is now being delivered to the Paraguay Central
railway at Asuncion, writes Consul Cornelius
Ferris, Jr., of Asuncion. It consists of 3,000 tons'
of good steaming coal from Cardiff, and is being
delivered on board the cars of the raihvay at the
wharf at $12.S3 Argentine gold per ton. (One peso
in Argentine gold equals $0,965 in American gold).
This price is greater than the railway company
expected to pay.
If good steaming coal can be delivered at $10
to $10.50 per ton, Argentine gold, its use will be
continued. The officials of the railway are not
able to give the freight rate on the coal from Cardiff
to Buenos Aires, where it was transshipped,
but from Buenos Aires to Asuncion it was $3.08
Argentine gold per ton.
