SLEMP MAKES FORTUNE.
Virginia Congressman Reported Il
Have Realized Large Sums.

Friends of Congressman Bascom
Slemp, the lone Republican in con-
sress from Virginia, declare that he
has cleaned up another large fortune
in Kentucky coal land operations.
The amount is not known to them
but they believe it will run up into the
hundreds of thousand of dollars. Four
years ago Mr.. Slemp came out Of
big coal land deal in Southwest Viz
pinia and eastern Kentucky with
profit of 100000.
Mr.. Slemp was in the deal which
transferred 100000 acres Of eastern
Kentucky coal lands from the North
ern Coke Company to the Elkhorn
Fuel Company, of which Senator Wat
/ son is president. Senator Watson is
Nhe controlling factor in the ConsoIida-
Lion Coal Company, and this company
5 behind the Elkhorn Fuel Company.
The transaction is reported to be one
Mi the largest ever made in coal lands
Bn this country for many a year.
ia Running in this land are veins Of
lbal averaging ten feet In thickness. 1t
! estimated that the entire acreage
contains the stupendous amount Of
|, 500 100000 tons of coal, which is
Rufficient to supply all the world for
pine years.
The Elkhorn Company intends to
nine about 100000 tons year
,heir operations in eastern Kentucky
will open up that field as Southwest
l7ireinia has been developed in the
bast ten or fifteen years.
For years Mr.. Slemp and his asSo-
iates have been obtaining options and
diving eastern Kentucky coal lands
it'll their holdings have reached an
= Eiormous figure. The young Virgin
IN, a far-sighted business man, was
He of the first to see the possibilities
Z the coal land developed in eastern
Kentucky. Since then he has devoted
nhch of his time in the requirement
# holdings and leases.
The Virginia congressman will not
iscuss the inside details of his specu-
ption in eastern Kentucky, but he
tas no hesitancy in saying he is
kleased with the results.
