The Yukon valley abounds in rich coal
deposits and in the mountain ranges in the
vicinity of gle City aud Fort Cud Inv,
several veins OF excellent coal have been
discovered, the Slate creek mine being
further developed than others.
All of the lower Yukon steamers are.
prep red to burn coal and there are several
points where coal is taken on. Near the
mouth OF the kovukuk tunnel was
st rted last spring and early in September
coal WAS furnished to steamers. The A.
E. Co. was then intending to purchase
this location.
The coal at Five Fingers is getting bet
