NO CHICKALOON COAL ID BE OUT
 FOR LONG TIME

Walter A. Gomertz, manager of the Chickaloon Coal Co.,, who was in Sew ard yesterday on his way to his coal property, says that his company will not be ready to market coal for year and perhaps a year and half.
 Mir. Gompertz stated that his com pany is now doing development work on two units of LAO acres with l.. Netland as the engineer in charge.
 "We have several tunnels" said Mir. Gompertz, "and our coal veins from fourteen inches to six feet The coal is a high grade bituminous. Dia- mond drills are now being used to prove the veins which will be cross cut to ascertain the tonnage. We will develope for the next six or eight months then proper machinery will be installed, washing bunkers, gridl- CTS for asserting and within year and half at the outside, we will be shipping coal. We could ship some coal now, but it would be highly un- satisfactory, simply mine run and a poor advertisement of what we ultim- ately expect to produce'.
 Mir. Gompertz has interested San Francisco capiliStS in his company and has plenty of money backing his enterprise.
