ON THE TRAIL OF
COAL LAND GRABBERS-SEN-
SATIONAL ACTIONS TO COM
MENCE IN SEATTLE.

y
DENVER. Aug. 1t.-Within a
month hearing will begin in seattle
that government officials claim will
disclose proof of gigantic frauds in
connection with coal lands in Alaska.
This investigation. will be followed
by similar hearings to be heid in a
score of states.
The best coal engineers and lawyers
connected with the general land Of
fee have been assigned to duty in
connection with the. hearings and
special agents who have been work
ing quietly for months securing evil
dence will take the stand as wit
pesses
The facts pertaining to the tlleged
frauds are known to Secretary of the
Interior Ballinger and Fred bennett,
commissioner of the general land Of
flee. and they have given the word
to their subordinates to proceed
against persons responsible for tne
alleged frauds. Commissioner Den
nett stopped off in Denver several
days ago on his way to the coast and
held lengthy conference with the
Cultl VI tIit Hclu uiFioioh VI thc
general land office, with headquarters
here, when instructions were given
as to the method of procedure.
That more than 100000 acres of
rich coal lands in Alaska, some of
them having veins sixty-five feet in
thickness have been filed upon by
dummy entrymen, procured through
agents of six large corporations, the
land Office has ample evidence to
prove, according to information made
public tonight. Powerful interests
have sought to force the department
of the interior through financial, po-
litieal and even social pressure to
patent these lands, a great deal of
which was filed upon more than two
years ago. This pressure was re-
sisted however, and when congress
passed the law of May 1908, provid-
ing for associations of four or more
individuals to develop Alaskan coal
lands to the extent of 1850 acres
for each combination, the interests
back of these dummy entrymen tried
to get these lands through to pat
emit under this law. A
Commissioner Dennett's view of
the matter is that all entries found
to be fraudulent, which, he believes,
will prove to be at least rs per cent
of the 100000 acres referred to
should be cancelled at once.

Irrigation Congress Pas
ses Resolution Asking
Annual Appropriation
Of $40. .OOO,OOO.OO
SETS FORTH VARIETY OF
CHANGES THAT ARE CON-
SIDERED DESIRABLE IN AID
OF RECLAMATION.

SPOKANE, Aug. 13.-An annual
appropriation of ten million dollars
for a period of Eve years to aid in
irrigation work, is asked of congress
in "a resolution adopted by the Ma
tional Irrigation Congress today.
This is perhaps the most important
recommendations in resolutions that
has been adopted. The following is
synopsis of its terms.
That homestaders under govern
ment projects shall not be required
to esta blish residence before the
government is prepared to furnish
them with water.
That the general government take
measures to drain swamp land in aid
of land reclamation and of public
health.
That the irrigation congress aid
all other conservation organizations
in bringing about waterway improve
ments, re-forestration, drainage and
other like projects.
That there be brought about sur
veys and estimates of the costs of
submerged lands where the work is
international in character this re-
fers to northern Idaho in particularly
That the reclamation act be ex-
tended to Hawaii. That the various
states pass laws regulating the
cutting of public and private tim
bers. sgse
That there shall be no political
lines with reference to the use of
water for irrigation.
That the Mississippi deep waterway
project may be developed.
The committee rejected the resolu-
tion asking for five billion dollar
bond issue, after an animated de-
bate. A number of Washington
delegates were particularly active in
supporting the measure.
No hint of the Ballinger-P4achOt
difficulty came up in the session to-
day. Prof w D. Lyman, spoke on
the subject Of deep waterways for
the inland empire. In part he SAID: !:
Among the various river systems
of the United States which are
worthy of public Improvement and
utilization, that OF the Columbia
river and it's affluents stands pre-
eminent.
'The water shed of the Columbia
embraces about 250,000 square miles
in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Mon
tana, Wyoming, Nevada and British
Columbia. The total length is about
1400 miles.
Gas to it's capability to create me-
chanical power, it has been roughly
estimated that the available horse
power of the United States is 37,000,-
900, of which more Uhan one-fourth
is on the Columbia and it's tributaries
Mr.. Lyman then took up the sub
ject of obtructions to navigation re-
ferring to the eight and one-half
miles of rapids above Dallas City as

II was a rich property. Just at this
time there are extensive improve
ments going on. Twenty men
are Just completing new road two
miles in length to the mine. This
is fine roadway and it is an import
ant piece Of development work. There
are four tunnels on the property,
each following the vein. The work
on the tunnels amounts to $40 feet
in all. The mine will soon harness
its water power by the introduction
of 5000 feet OF ten and twelve inch
steel pipe. This power will be used
to run drills and sawmill. Eight
men are doing underground work at
the present time. At the time OF
the visit they were repairing machin-
cry. The mine has been in opera
tion 12 years and it paid well, though
for the most of this period an arras-
ira was depended upon for working
the ore and saving the gold The
Green brothers took out 100000

its present machinery it is doing
good work
The Black Bear property was visit
ed by a number of eXcursionists.
There are three claims and five
lodges. -four of these are free milling.
Considerable work has been done on
the mine.
The Galice Creek Consolidated was
also visited by some of the party.
There are extensive improvements
going on and as soon as they are
completed the work Of saving gold
will be commenced.
The Sugar Pine property was also
examined. The showing Of ore was
certainly very fine. The new mill
has arrived and will soon be In place.
The company has built new road to
the mine, an extension of the Harvey
mine road.
The Harvey placer mine, which
has a history as a producer running
back many years, came in for care

700 acres of virgin placer ground
yet to be worked which will consume

heard such tales many times, and

subject OF the extent and perman-
ency Of these mineral veins more
than passing attention. / do not

quarter century ago when Califor-

the same stage Of development
Gallce district makes a showing the
equal OF any, and far superior to
many, of these camps that have since
become famous. These great camps
did not have all high-grade ore; they
are just like your own, with rich
places in veins of lower grade.
Cheap transportation and scientific
methods of working these ores of
low grade have made these camps
and that is what you need when you
get rid Of the 'knocker. Right here
| have suggestion to make. You
need some reliable authority as to
the geological formation; you need
a quadrangle of this district as made
by the U. s. Geological Survey.
have made an effort for considerably
more than a year with individual
miners to take up this matter with
the director Of the U. s. Geological
Survey, but 1t Is difficult in a dis.
trict like this where miners are un-
organized to get such a movement
to the attention of more than a few,
and too often the few do not know
the Importance of such a quadrangle.
MY work during the past two
summers placed me in close associa-
tion in the field with the men who
are doing this work In Oregon; Prof.
j. 5. Diller, the noted government
geologist; and Dr. Geo. f. Kay. pro-
fessor of geology Of the University

arousing public interest | received
a promise that II possible they would
visit Galice at the end of the season
or the beginning Of this, and put in
a few days looking II over; but what
we want is complete geological
description showing the structure
section or underground relation Of
formations. | have with me a gov.
ernment folio of this kind and I
want you to examine It later. Tho
Topographic map would be of great
value, and from my observation the
geological sheet would effectually
establish the fact that the two great
copper belts, the one at Almeda and
the other on the west side of the dis
trict at Collier creek, are Identical
with the discoveries north and west
OF Mt. Boliyer, and are the same that
extend south into Northern Califor-
MIA where they are so profitably
worked. If these great lodes are
the same there can be little doubt
that the rich gold ledges (and the
greatest values lie in the belt be-
tween) are also permanent.
