Thu 17 Jan 1895
To Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal Co (Jones)
Wolverhampton

Summary

Enclosing traffic numbers to and from the T&S Canal for Staffs & Worcs Canal 1893 and 1894. Compare traffic from Stourport and from Worcester. We shall charge the full weight in every boat but the tonnage rate will be fixed so there will be no increase. The increase in toll on coal to Stroud from 11d to 1s will interfere with Staffordshire coal trade but there has not been a boat down yet to assess the result.
