| pared to handle all traffic that may

ALFRED J. GHEZZI
NENANA, ALASKA
BROAD PASS COMPANY TO
CUT THE PRICE OF COAL,
With a view to stimulating min
ing activities in the Fairbanks dis
trict, where the price of fuel, by
reason of depleted forests, has be
come almost prohibitive. The Broad t
Pass Coal Company, of which R. W.
Calderhead is president, will under
take to put coal on the market dur-;
ing the coming winter at a price
that will cut mining costs very:
materially.
In a statement given to The News
today, Mr. Calderhead says as soon
as his company can put teams on
the Xenana river ice. at Lignite,
which should not be later than the
middle of Xovember, they will be
prepared to sell coal f. o. b. in the
cars on the siding at Lignite at
$3.50 per ton. in carload lots. The
price at Xenana. in the cars, will
be $4.50 per ton. in the cars, in
carload lots, and $6 per tor in Fair
banks and on the creeks, wherever
the $2.50 freight rate prevails.
The decision to put cheap coal on
the market was reached at a meet
ing of the directors of the company,
Mr. Calderhead, after it had been
determined by them that such a
price would enable mining men to
operate their properties at a pro
fit. They have been assured that j
a large quantity of coal can be
disposed of at Fairbanks and on ;
the creeks at that figure.
Mr. Calderhead reports that the ]
company’s mine on Lignite has been !
considerably developed recently and
that a large amount of good coal
is now available for delivery at the
railroad, as soon as river conditions
will permit. Mr. Calderhead says the
quality of the coal is better than
any thus far shipped by the Broad
Pass Coal Company.
