Deal on BeatSOn Property Off Because Purchasers Asked
 Too Much Time.
OFFER ONLY lOPER CENT CASH
This Much Admitted by Andrew Robinson of New York, Owner
 Of FOur-fifthS Interest.
Special to The Daily Gateway.

New York, June l-The deal for the sale of the Beatson mine on Latouche island fell through because the propoS- ed purchasers wanted to pay only 10 per cent down and the remainder on easy installments, practically making it a long time option which would have enabled the new owners to take all but the first payment out of the mine and to drop the property at any time they might be so disposed. The price agreed upon was s7,5OO,OOO instead of $5,OOO,0OO as published in the Pacific coast papers.
 This information comes from Andrew Robinson, cousin of A. K. Beatson of Latouche. He is owner of St. Andrews hotel at Broadway and Seventy-second street. He says now that he is glad the sale of the mine was dropped and that he would not take sl0,0O0, 900 for the property. He will not state who the proposed purchasers were but says the Guggenheims were not in it.
 The reported sale of the Ellamar mine for Sl, ,000,0O0 to H. c. Elliott is a little bit of advertising. The fact is that Elliott has an option on the mine for Sl ,OOO,O 900 and s2OO,O0O in stock of company he proposes to organize. He is in New York now trying to finance he company to buy the Ellamar mine and other properties.

Will be Lively Town

Homer will soon be a lively coal town, Mir. Ross asserts. He expects to add steadily to the number of men em- ployed and within few weeks will have an output of fifty tons a day. No effort will be made to mine a large quantity of coal this year, but some will be taken out in the course of the devel- opment work which will be done to block out the deposits for mining on large scale.
 Bunkers will be erected before next spring sufficient to load daily output of several thousand tons besides stor- ing enormous stocks. Mir. Ross ex- poets to find his chief market in San Francisco. He says coal can be hauled on barges to San Fran cisco for $l.50 a ton.
 The syndicate which is working at Homer is composed of Michigan coal men. Mr. Ross is from Detroit, and has had many years experience in the operation of coal mines.
 Takes Over Everything
 The Ross syndicate has purchased all the property of the old Cook Inlet Coal Company, which opened mines in 1899 and built a narrow gauge railroad about eight miles long from Homer up the sandspit. This company went into bankruptcy and its property was sold under an order of the Uuited States district court of West Virginia, in which state the company was lncor- porated. From the purchaser at the bankrupt sale the property passed to James H. Caldwell of Pennsylvania, and Mir. Ross brought with him a transfer of all the property from Mir. Caldwell to himself.
 The property owned by the old com pany included coal lands, the railroad, rolling stock, machinery and the town site of Homer.
 The coal at Homer is of good quality. It said to be of better grade than the average coal mined in the state of Washington. It is first class heating coal and in burning leaves few clinkers.

COMPANY FORMED
FOR INTERURBAN
Southern Construction Has
$4,000 Capital
VIII Build Line Between Paducah
and MayfieId and Its Plans Are
Progressing.
SURVEY DIFFERENT ROUTES.


Quietly but steadily the Southern
Railway company, of this
city, is going ahead with its plans for
building an interurban electric line
from Paducah to Maytield, Fulton
and other points south of Paducah
Articles of Incorporation were filed
yesterday at the court house for the
Southern Construction company, or
ganized by B. H. Scott, H. H. Loving.
John F. Harth, George Rush and
others. This company will be sub
sidiary to the electric line company.
The next step will be the arrival of
engineers to survey the routes and
any efforts to hold property at exorbi-
tant prices may be met by competi-
ton that should cause property own
ers to be reasonable. However, the
right of way will be largely contrib
uted by he farmers along the route.
The Southern Construction company
is capitalized at $4,000 divided into
shares of 500 each. Franchises held
by the company require the line to be
started in twelve months, and build
ing operations probably will follow
directly after the engineers finish.
