BERlNG COAL IS
 NOW BEING MINED

KATALLA-W IL Dugdell has ob
 tained a permit from the COntrolley' Bay Coal company, known locally as the Mcdonald company, to min" coal in their patented claim on Boring lake. He now has a crew of men at the mine getting the same into shape for actual work after which he hopes to supply katalla and vicinity with Boring river coal. In 1907 T. F. Mcdonald expended $175 900 developing mine on this claim. Final proof was made on this claim, together with the two adjoining ones, the purchase price paid to the government, and the final receipt for same received. After selling about 1500 tons of coal from the development, MT. Mcdonald made contract with the Katalla com
 pany then building railroad at this place, to supply them with coal
 l In 1908, at the request of the navy department, MT. Mcdonald furnished the battleship Nebraska with thir
 ty tons of coal to make test
 The report dated May 3, 1908, shows
 that the test was made in competi
 tion with Pocahontas coal, the

hontas under another set Within the elapsed time only 15.2 tons of Mcdonald coal was used. as against iA7 tons of PoCahontas coal. This resulted in the navy sending Mir Mcdonald a contract to sign for supply of 1000 tons of his coal alongside the navy collier in Con troller Bay at $6 per ton Before Mcdonald received the blank con tract. Louis R Glavis got busy and -erved orders on Mcdonald to mine that time the mine has been lyinS idle, the machinery and equipment rusting away, and the buildings falling into ruin, while the govern ment has been Investigating. Last year a patent was granted for the claim on which the money had been expended When Mir. Dugdell gets the mine in working order again Katalla people are hoping to get their coal for a little less than the S21 per ton they have had to pay for the last nine years for British Columbia coal This with the Me Donald mine just thirteen miles up the valley too

 DAWSON, May 26.-WIlliam Coo ley. Fred Nelson, Charles Nelson Bill Ladiet, John Turner and Ton McCaW arrived yesterday from Krkman, where they were engaged in mining during the winter. Most of them will return at once to re- sume work on the creek. MT. Coo ley says:
 "Thirty-four men mined on the creek last winter, and twenty-five will be there this summer. The creek was worked during the Win ter on various claims from Il above to 60 above, and certain Claim' along that stretch will be worked this summer A number of good dumps were gotten out during the winter, and the boys in most cases made big wages for the time they drifted

GOOD NEWS IS
 RECEIVED HERE
 FROM DELEGATE
WICkERSHAM WIRES OF PAS. SAGE OF THREE BILLS
 FOR ALASKA.

In two wires, received early last week by Mayor R. R. Myers. Dele gate from Alaska James Wicker sham told the story of the passage of three bills which will probably be very beneficial to Alaska and Alaskans. Particularly is this true in view of the fact that a large portion of the money appropriated by the passage of the bills will be spent in interior Alaska.
 The bills passed were the Sundry Civils bill carrying with it the ap- propriation of $6,250 900 for wor. on the Alaska railroad; (the pas sage of this bill was reported in the telegraphic news columns Of The Citizen last Monday) the mili- tary appropriation bill of $1S2,000,- 900, and the Wickersham homestead bill, reducing homesteads, which may hereafter be filed upon in Alaska to 160 acres, and making it possi- ble for homesteader on the Out side to come here and take up an other homestead. The amount of money appropriated in the military bill includes the sum of $500, 900 for work on the roads and trails of Alaska.
 The first wire of the delegate to Mayor Myers stated that the Sun dry Civils bill as paSsrl. clrti C with it the appropriation of only $2250 000 for the Alaska railroad The message was the cause of con siderable anxiety here. as it had been expected that thP entire 2luouet asked for would be appropriated Which expectation eventually proved first wire, the mayor received an- other from the delegate, saying that the first statement was incorrect and that the $6,247,000 had been ap- propriated.
 Immediately after the receipt of the first wire by the mayor, Com missioner Thomas Riggs, Jr., of the Alaskan Engineering commission, eN- pressed himself as being of the opinion that there was some mis- take He also said that in case there was no mistarke the commls- sion would have to make entirely new plans for their summers work. As things now stand, however. the sum of $1,250,000 will be spent on railroad work in the interior shortly made available. And Commissioner Riggs expects to be notified that the money is available within tie next few days.
 Considerable surprise was express ed here when it became known that the military appropriation contained $50O,O0 for work on the roads amt trails of Alaska. No word of how the fund is to be allotted has yet been received at the local office of the road commission, but it is eX- pected that a large part of it will be expended in making good sum mer trail between Fairbanks and the coast It is also thought prob able that the roads in the Ruby district will also be benefited to q great extent by the appropriation.

 With the exception of last years event this was the fastest race r.n over the Indianapolis speedway However today's classic was only 300 miles. while the distance before has been 800 In winning last year De Palma set the average of S9.94 miles per hour for the entire raCa Resta's average today was 83.26.
 The race itself was not exciting except when Aiken was battling with Rcsta for the lead. After Resta had disposed of the Hoosier driver of another Peugeot he had three-lap lead and took it easy still further reducing the averag' of S994 of last year
 Resta drove a masterful race at all times. refusing to be dragged into any sort of competition that would tend to put his car out of commission.
 He started in third position and went to second for seven laps and finally in the eighteenth lap took the lead, with Aiken pressing him ey cry lap. Never again was he head ed although Aiken clung to him from the eighteenth lap until he went out in the siXty-eighth with a broken valve.
