ALASKAN COAL FIND.
RESULTS IN CHEAPENING
FUEL IN WIDE TERRITORY
Is Great Boon 20 Canning, Mining
and Manufacturing Interests-De-
posits are of Vast Extent and the
Quality Is That of Liginite--
Development More Rapid and
Thorough Because of Discovery.

Discoveries of semi-lignite coal In
immense reposits on the Kugruk riv-
er and an increasing output from the
mines opened there have reduced the
price of fuel on Seward peninsula.
Th Nome Nugget enthusiastically
says:
Heretofore the big stumbling block
of the northern prospector and ope-
rator has beon tho lack OF fuel, but in
measure this has been removed by
the recent discoveries of semi-lignite
coal on the Kugruk river. These dis
coverles have greatly affected the
Fairhaiven district especially, and for
the last twn years the low price of
that commodity in the Candle section
has been a great factor in the devel-
opment of the whole Seward penin-
sula.
''The vastness of the Kugruk coal
fields is almost impossible to believe.
There is coal for miles and miles,
while more discoveries are being
made at frequent Intervals. Last
winter one mine alone produced
nearly 1000 tons e. coal, only the best
of 1t being shipped, however. 1t was
carefully screened and hand-picked,
which made It possible to sell It in
Candle at lower cost than is the
freight rate between Seattle and the
northern country. In some cases It is
cheaper than the freight price of
hauling coal from Nome to the near
by creeks. But $40 per ton is the
price paid for the valuable fuel laid
down in Candle or on the Inmachuk
On the Kugruk it can be secured for
SO.
"The mine, which has been operat-
ed by the Chicago Creek Coal COM
pany for the last two winters, is un-
doubtedly one of the greatest coal
discoveries of Alaska, and even
though the extent of the field Is un.
known, already enough has been un.
covered to last for years. In reality
the vein is practically unexplored, al.
though an incline has been driven tc
a depth of nearly 400 feet. and cross.
cut for 10 feet on each side. And the
coal is improving in quality all OF
the time"
