ANCHORAC.K, August 2fi—C.rading
i ontraetors in prosecuting their work
atony, the route of the government
railroad in the Nen ina coal Holds un
covered a live foot lied of coal, and
the property is now in course of de
velopment by \Y. F. Lynn, who has
obtained a freeuse permit to mine
it, occording to the official report of
Andrew Christensen, head of the Land
and Industrial Department of the Al
askan engineering Commission, who
recently returned to his headquarters
■n Anchorage from a trip of inspec
tion to the Nenauu and Fairbanks;
districts.
"Two properties are in process of
development along the lino of the
government railroad in the northern j
part of the Nenana field,” says the.
report of Mr. Christensen.
"\Y. F Lynn, who has a freeuse
permit or, the property containing
the five-foot bed that was uncovered'
by railroad graders twenty-eight miles
south of Nenana, is driving on the
bed. Some of the coal from this |
property was used In a pile driver1
of the Alaskan Engineering Commis-j
sion. and proved satisfactory. If the!
bed continues, and is of proper qual- j
Hv. it is the intention of the commis
sion to enter into a contract with,
Mr. Lynn to have him furnish coal
whin the railroad reaches his prop-j
. rty
"The other property under develop
ment in tile northern part of tie No-1
nami field is hold under u permit by I
Hubert E. Burns and several associates j
and is fifty miles south of Nenana J
They have uncovered five coal beds, j
vvhu ll appear to be an extension of the1
large beds exposed on Lignite creek, t
These five bods vary from five to j
uuality ol the coal appears to be as
good, if not better, than the coal ex
posed on Lignite creeks Mr. Burns
and his associates are driving a tun !
iiol on the largest bed and are prepar
ing to furnish coal to the railroadj
when it reaches their property.
Arrangements will be made to
have samples from these mines ship
ped to the Bureau of Mines Experi
ment station, in Fairbanks, and care
ful analyses wil be made frotnlttne
to time. It is also planned to install
an experimental drier for the purpose
of drying the coal so as to Improve
its efficiency The principal difficulty
with tin- coal in its raw stale is that
P slac ks rapidly, due to the amount of
moisture it contains. Great Interest'
attaches to experiments with tills
coal Coal is badly needed by the
railroad and for domestic use in the
interior of Alaska. Wood sells for
exceedinly high prices, and is lx om
ing rapidly exhausted ''
PERMITS ARE ISSUED FOR
USE OF NATIVE TIMBER
An Inquiry from the general land
office regarding the use of native tim
ber in the manufacture of necessary
containers for products of Alaska
that are to lie shipped to the Slates
was recently made to the headquar
ters at Washington, !). ('. A reply
lias been received from t'oiim-i s ucr
clay Tallman in which it is slated
that it is permissible to manufacture
and use any container necessary for
shipping the products of an Alaska
Industry.
The point In question was brought
up by a fish-salting concern on the
toast manufacturing its own barrels
to be used in shipping out the pro
duction of their plant, in order to save
the excessive cost of having them
made Outside and shipped to Alaska.
The department held that to prohibit
the use of native timber In the man
ufacture of barrels would be a restric
tion on one of the important indus
tries of the North. The use of tim
ber for making articles to be shipped
Outside to be disposed of there "ill
not be countenanced.
