COAL EXPERT
FIX VALUATION
Northumberland County Com
missioners Employ Sekol to
Finish Appraisement

Sunbury, Pa. July 7.-Northumber-
land County Commissioners have APP
pointed W. F. Sekol. Scranton coal
land expert, to make an expert APP
praisement of anthracite properties
in the county anthracite for taxable
purposes for the three years. start
ing January 1. last. In conjunction
with mining corporations engineers
he will make a personal examination
and report within 80 days. The mat
ter has been hanging fire for more
than three weeks, due to a disagree
ment of the commissioners as to
whether a county engineer or an out
side expert should be employed, it is
said.
For more than a year there has
been an agitation for revision up
wards of anthracite mining property
values in Northumberland county,
where there are huge deposits of an
thracite, said to be the third most
valuable in the United States. The
present valuation is $4,000. 900 of a
total valuation of s45, 900, 900 in the
entire county.
The County Commissioners APP
pointed T. Ellsworth Davies. of
Scranton, to make an appraisement.
He died when he had made only a
partial report, and since then moth
ing more has been done.
Mr.. Davies statement to the Com
missioners showed that Northumber-
land county has an area of $50
sduare miles. so square miles or 3d.
102 acres, are within the coal meas
ures. The coal deposits in the coun-
ty are controlled by the Philadelphia
and Reading Coal Inc Iron Company,
the Lehigh Valley Coal Company, the
Susquehanna Galleries Company and
the Girard Estate.
Coal deposits, according to this re-
port, originally were 4,o44,S52.00O
tons of anthracite. from which 24l'-
14l,O35 tons had been removed. leav-
ing 3.s03, 10. 965 tons remaining in
the ground. With an assessment at
a nominal SIT, 00O, 900. while the value
at retail of unmined coal is more
than $4,000. 900, 900 approximately
it is declared that the assessment
could with reason be increased sew
eral hundred per cent.
When the tri-ennial assessment of
three years ago was made, pea coal,
or No. s, as it is sometimes called.
retailed at 1915 a ton in Sunbury,
which is twenty miles from the
mines. Since then it has gone to $500
a ton. an increase of more than loo
per cent. Allowing for increased
costs of production, including labor
and materials about the mines. it is
asserted by taxpayers that taxes.
should be boosted considerably.
