AS TO ATCnsON's COAL FAMINE.
With More Money Invested 1t Would
Beat 4 Gold Mine.

Atchison people have the money to
finance the coal mine, but lack the nee
essary nerve; they are not accustomed
10 big transactions If the present plan
IS carried out, as soon as the bonds
a worth par, there will be a profit of
$4,000 TO start on. Why shouldn't that
money be made by AtchisOn people: by
the people who stood by the enterprise
when it was In hard lines? But the coal
enthusiasm is growing, and all sorts of
things may happen in the near future.
1t is said Joe Allen is willing to put
SIS, 900 into the mine, and Jim Orr is
farm for SIC, 500. of which amount h is
willing to put $4,000 into the coal mine.
Both these men are members of the
new operating company, and know
what the mine is doing. If the record
of Monday and Tuesday could be kept
up 1t would mean a profit OF 500 a day.
with the present crude means OF work
ing If the output could be increased to
40 tons a gay, or the present output
doubled, the profits would amount to
$500 a day AS the output increases, the
profit is much larger, for the reason
that the general top expenses are the
same. whether the output is two or four
hundred tons a day And there is moth
ing whatever in the way of producing
400 tons a day except that the ma
chinery is not heavy enough Another
shaft is also a necessity. With mod
ern machinery and another shaft, four
hundred tons a day would be child's
play: eight hundred tons day would
be produced as easily as two hundred
tons are produced now Tfn mining is
