most feasible plan OF operations In
hand. There is no dissent on the part
of the brokers regarding the necessity
for the clearing house in this city. Such
institutions are In use in all other large
American cities where there are stock
boards that do an extensive business.
The prices of southern Nevada shares
rose yesterday as compared with the
preceding days of the week. Goldheld
Consolidated Mines sold up to S7.O5 and
not lower than $500, the higher prices
being at the end of the proceedings;
Jumbo Extension went from $1.621z to
$1.75; Combination Fraction gained 10
points, from $3.10 TO $500; Daisy sold
at s1.45; Great Bend from SO cents up
to 62h cents; Jim Butler from 81 to
$1.021a; Blue Bull from 27 cents to 80
cents; Red Hills from 43 to s46 cents.
The market was stronger at the close,
all around. than it was at the opening
and so the bulls had good start for
their vacation.
The San Francisco mining exchange
will transact business in Bush street
the first three secular days of the
present week, closing Wednesday night

COAL AREA IN ALASKA
IS 12,B4 SQUARE MILES
Many of the Deposits ARE
of Great Thickness
and Long Extent
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

WASHINGTON, June 29-Of the
100000 square miles forming the ter
ritory of Alaska it is estimated that
1884 square miles are underlain by
coal bearing rocks, that is, rocks that
probably contain coal seams; 1928
squares miles contain known depo-
sits of coal. ranging in age from
carboniferous to tertiary and in
composition from anthracite OF
good quality through high grade
semlbituminous steam and coking Goals
ana ordinary bituminous coal to iig-
mites OF various characters. Many of
the known coal deposits are of great
thickness, especially where the coal
carries large carbon content; but,
unfortunately, high grade of coal and
great thickness of beds are as a rule
accompanied by geologic structure un-
favorable to mining.
From the Pacific coast to Bering
sea and the Arctic slope, through the
valleys of Copper and Yukon rivers and
their tributaries coal beds are widely
distributed, and although 1T is unlikely
that any except the high grade Goals of
the Pacific coast and the Matanusk
and Bering river fields are suitable for
shipment far from the mines, many
others may be locally of extreme i'm
portance and great value.
The coal mining industry of Alaska
is still practically undeveloped. the
total production for 1906, the year of
greatest output, being but $3.50 short
tons, valued at $4,000. The most ac-
tive mining operations have been on
Cook inlet, In southwestern Alaska. on
the Yukon, in Seward peninsula and at
Cape Lisburne- All Of these were for
the purposes of local fuel on small
coastwise or river steamers, at mining
camps and at canneries
Alaskan Goals have in recent wears
been the subject of large amount of
special Investigations by the geological
survey, and In addition much informa-
ton concerning coal has been gathered
each year since regular geologic work
was begun in Alaska by survey parties
working primarily on other problems.
A brief summary of the results of these
Investigations, illustrated by a man
showing the distribution and area of
coal and coal bearing rocks, is included
In the report on progress of investfga-
tions of mineral resources of Alaska
In 1905, published by the survey as
bulletin No. 314. This summary, pre-
pared by G.. c. Martin, is not intended
to be complete in itself, but It supple-
ments more complete and comprehen-
sive summaries which have been al
ready published and to which reference
is made, and is preliminary to more de-
tailed discussions that will be pub
lfshed on the completion of investiga-
tions now in progress.

was not affected by the unfavorable in
Vestment differences from the New
York city bond failure. Total sales of
bonds at par value amounted to
S25S, 000
The Financier SAYS: "The last state
ment of the associated banks shows, as
was expected from the preliminary es-
Inmates, a large reduction in cash, but
because Of the contraction in loans and
the loss of cash and consequently the
decrease in deposits the reserve re-
quirement were sufficiently reduced to
enable a fair amount of surplus to be
disclosed. The cash decrease was
s6,S54, 500. This was somewhat below the
amount that had been withdrawn from
the banks as the result of gold ex-
ports and transfers Of funds TO San
Francisco with the shipments TO Can
ada, but the average system may cor
rect the discrepancy.
Loans decreased s14,145.500. this
amount closely agreeing with the sum
of the contraction in loans and the loss
Of cash, and therefore the statement
made a good average.
RESERVE is REDUCED
The required reserve against de-
posits was reduced $3,375,175, deducting
which from the loss of cash left $3,117,-
325 as the decrease in surplus reserve
TO s2,509, 275. Computed upon the basis
OF deposits. less those of s31, ,275, 200
public funds. the surplus is $10.32S,O75.
Loans were contracted by $7,S1S, 700.
This was probably due to resumption of
loaning by trust companies so that the
banks were enabled largely to reduce
their loans.
The daily average of bank clearings
for the week was $244,OOO,O00 which
differed only slightly from the aver
age of the previous week. Clearings on
Saturday rejecting Fridays business,
were $520,0O6,6S1. Comparison OF loans
by individual banks show that eight in
stitutions reduced this item by $780,
600 net; six banks lost $500, 900 net
cash.
'It may be observed that the bank
statement of the week was affected by
the operations incident to the July
interest items and also by the large
exports of gold 10 Europe. Such factors
having now been eliminated, it is most
likely that normal conditions win be
restored in the current week.

SAFE CRACKERS CAUGHT

William Mclaughlin and William Nc
Carthy, who were arrested after a
struggle about "a week ago by Detec-
tives Conlon and MCGOWAN in East
street, We're booked at the city prison
yesterday on charges of burglary and
carrying concealed weapons. They were
accused of the safe cracking job at the
Office of the G. N. Wolfe lumber COM
pany, 2299 Folsom street, on the night
OF June 20, when several revoIvers
were also stolen. When arrested they
had revolvers which were identified by
Wolfe. The, detectives are searching
for James Conwell, who was with Nc
Laughlin and Mccarthy but made his

turbing factor was the suspension Of
the Kenneth DonneIlan brokerage COM
pany. which, coming not long after
the Sullivan collapse in the same re-

effect on good many investors and
spectators, here and elsewhere. Again,
there is always a lull along about the
fourth of July when most people are
out Of town on their summer vaca-

Changes in Mining Stocks for the Last Week

considering all the adverse circum-
stances. Shortage of stock continues
to be complained of, and many brokers
who have sold short have been obliged
to hustle for the stocks to deliver to
their customers. The boards will not
be in session this week, except the
San Francisco mining exchange, and
that will adjourn on Wednesday after
noon until the following Monday, so
the mining stock market may be con-
sidered to have closed down for the
coming week

There were two events in mining
stock circles last week of more than
average interest. and both were Of a
depressing character and produced an
unpleasant effect on the market. One
was the local telegrapbers strike,
which interrupted Wire communication
between San Francisco and Goldheld,

II Is TO Be Corrected

LEAVENwORTH, Kans., June 29.-
There is feeling" said Major General
j. Franklin Bell here today, that there
is something wrong in the army and
an effort will be made to correct It."
General Bells statement caused much
comment among the army men who
heard him. He gave no clew to his
meaning, leaving his hearers to form
their own conclusions. The speech OF
General Bell was made at the gradu-
ating exercises of the infantry and cav
airy school at the signal school and

BRYAN TALKS IN
HIS C0MM0NER
SAYS THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
is BY MO MEANS IN BAD
CONDITION.

Lincoln Neb, July Civilian J.
Bryan says in The Commoner today
under the head, THE Democratic
/ Outlook:
"A number of large dailies which
oscilate between the Two parties and
attempt to dictate The policy Of both.
Iare just now taking a gloomy view
OF democratic prospects
Democratic prospects, instead of
being gloomy, are bright and grow
ing brighter The democratic posi-
tion has been vindicated by events
and seconded by the admission OF
republicans Every proposition for
which the democratic party stood In
1895 has been proved sound
The partys position on the trust
question has been demonstrated TO
ibe sound. and every day increases
the number Of those who believe as
the democratic platform in 1900
stated that a private monopoly is IN
defenaible, and intoerable
The democratic party is more uni
fed than it has been for many years,
and this unity is due to two causes:
IN the first place, the money ques-
don, which defeated the democrats in
.lS96. is out of the way
There is no division in the demo
cratic party among the rank and file
lWhile the democratic party is united.
the republican party is more divided
|hau it has been in recent years. and
this division can not be healed. The
stand-patter and the republican re,
former are at outs, and their con
troversy grows more bitter
THE republican reforlner is shout
ing that something must be done,
and the stand-patter, his hands to the
elbows IN the pocket Of the public,
says let well enough done
No matter whas the republican
party does. 1t can not please both
sides.
An that the democratic party has
Ito do is to be loyal to the interests
OF the people and make a strong

ory is within it's reach.
