Vein That May Prove SUFFICIENT For
Sioux City and Vicinity.
SIOUX CRY, Ia, Dec. 81. "A company
is being formed to engage in a large
scale in coal mining near Jackson eb.,
about ~ miles from Sioux City. It has
long been known that coal existed in
the bluffs bounding the Missouri river
bottoms on both the Nebaaska and
Iowa sides in this vicinity, but most of
the specimens discovered were of too
poor a quality to pay for mining.
Several months ago a well drilling
gang near Jackson struck q vein Of
what looked like a good quality of hi.
luminous coal. Eastern experts were
called into counsel. A further exam
ination was made, and an 18-inch vein
located. Still more recently a 8-foot
vein has been found in the same neigh
borhood. A shaft was recently sunk
and mining commenced on . small
scale. The work was done, however,
by private parties, whose capital was
insufficient to enable them to do bust
ness to much advantage. The new cor
poration will consist of local business
men. 1t is believed a supply can be
found equal to the needs Of this entire
TERRITORY.
