FROM TUESDAYS DAILY BUY R. R. WHEN ROUTE
 IS FIXED SAYS LANE

Washington-The full text has been published of Secreatry Lane s report to the appropriations commit tee in the matter of the Alaska rail road but there is nothing contained in it which alters the situation as 1t existed before the text became known. The report shows that Mir. Lane told the committee that the route must be decided upon before any dicision has been reached about the purchase of any existing road. He entered in de- tail into the various phases of the situation as it was shown by the mem, bers of the engineering commission. The building of a road to Fairbanks dollars a mile. He declared that tho cost of construction between Chitina and Fairbanks would be cheap but he stated that the lands available for agricultural development in that part 
 alterations were taken into account in the report of Mr. Lane to the commit tee He dwelt on the matter from both sides the building of the railroad without buying any of the present privately owned railroads and the building of combinations of the exist ing roads For instance, he declared that if none of the existing railroads were purchased a route would be pro- vided from Portage bay to Susitna across the Broad Pass and on to Fair banks and the Tanana river. Such a road, it may be interesting tp state, the secretary says would he four hundred and eighteen miles In length.
 The alternative route, he said in his report, would be from Seward and go up Turnagain Arm and thence to -FaifbahRs along the saiae Toute IS that from Portage bay. He reported that the route from Seward would be followed by using part of the Alaska Northern raildoar. The secretary is also considering the construction of T branch road from Controller bay to the Boring river coal fields While the report is exceedingly interesting it contains only little that has not been threshed out since the railroad bill passed. |. IS clear tiat no ID. ti.. decision ss heen reached except that the coal mines are to be opened i'm mediately AS the secretary stated some time ago.

By far the cheapest ali-ye.r power of any place in the United States may be obtained in this section of Alaska I refer to the Spell River power pro feet where according to F. P. Ken nedy. late assistant superintendent of the Alaska Treadwell Gold Mines. hy1ro-electric power can he developed IT tide water in blocks of 10 GOO p.h for a capital cost per horsepower of <z7..s5, or allowing 8 rer cert -.orr in terest and depreciation. $3.43 per horsepower year. These ore figures published in Western Engineegine. January, 1914.
 Freight on ore from any port of southeastern Alaska to this power should not exceed q per ton. Quot ing from the aforementioned 4. I Nf E:
 1.-The electric smelting copper ores Is nothing more that the suhstitut on of electric heat for tine heat de- -ived from the combustion of carbon. Fnasmuch IS the carbon which is use.i either in the reverheratory furnace or in the blast furnace. plays no in;rer- tant pert in the necessary reactions which take place in these furnaces, there is no reason. metailurgieally why electric heat may not be suhsti- tuted for the heat derived from the Combustion of carbon It fact. as re have tried to point ont. fin sonn eases the reactions would take place t0 better advantage in neutral atmos- uhere of the electric furnace than i'll the reducing or partially reducing atmosphere of the coml ustian firm. gre. Therefore as to whet'ier tho electric furnace would fc used for the smelting of copper ores woul.l largely depend. SD far as we are ahlr fo make out at the present time. lin en the relative cost of coke ani c'ee. trie power. As the use of the eIer- sric furnace is not advocated as 2 com aetitor of the combustion furnace. Int as substitute for if. in those localities where it is nof advisahie because of the high cost of fHel we see no reason why the electric fmf- mace may not be developed as a gull. stitute for the combustion furnace where the conditions are srch as fl warrant it's use, especially in the treat inent of copper bearing ores.''
 Although your editorial remark + to electric copper smelling Icing ar unknown art is m doubt trre so far as actual practice in this country is concerned, I maintain that it is nn' X lost art: that it is being praetice1 iu Norway at the present day. and f' extremely applicable to this section of Alaska.
