arrived, however, the fire had en-
gulfed the entire interior OF the build
ing and flames. were shooting from

Police Give AID.
The fire was unusually difficult for
the firemen to fight. owing to che
fact that almost every portion OF the
stores interior was burning at the
same time, with a terrific heat and
sitting smoke During the time TIE
firemeu were rescuing persons from
the hotel rooms above. the fire spread
into the basement Of the building. but
was quickly extinguished there.
At no time during the two hours
the firemen worked did the fire get
beyond che store itself although the
hotel above was filled with dense
clouds OF acrid smoke. Until the
smoke prevented. policemen assisted
guests Of the hotel down the stairs.
Birds Are burned.
-Four dozen song birds and a huge
macaw. constituted the casualties OF
the fire. TIE macaw was at liberty
inside the store and apparently hai
attempted to fly 10 the TOP and front
Of the store. He was overcome b.
smoke, however. and although his
h-iliiant piumage was not burned, the
bird succumbed 10 the smoke and
heat
The work Of clearing the ruins viii

INCREASES OUTPUT
 OF ALASKA COAL

The production of coal in Alaska
 in 1918 was 75,606 tons, valued at
 $411,S5O. according to the U. $.
 Geological Survey, Department Of
 the Interior. This may be compared
 with 53,955 tons, valued at $265,S17,
 in 1917. The production for 1918 was
 by far the largest in the history of
 coal mining in Alaska, being 40 per
 cent larger than the output for 1917,
 which was also greater than ahat of
 any previous year. 1t is believed that a. substantial coal-mining indus |try has at last started in Alaska. Tho larger part of the output inl9lS
 came from tho Matanuska field,
 which yielded 63,O92 tons The re-
 mainder came. from eight or ten mines in different parts of the territory All these mines except those in the Matanuska and Boring River fields and at Port Graham, produced coal for local use under free-use permits. About 12 mines were operated, em ploying 239 men for an average period of 254 days.
 In the Matanuska fields the Eska Creek mines were operated regular ly throughout the year by the Al aska Engineering Commission to supply fuel for the railroad and other Government use. At the ,ChickaloON mine. also operated by the Alaska Engineering Commission. the work has consisted primarily of expiora. tion, and development. and only Q small amount of coal. won incidental ly. has been produced. In 1918 for the l first time Matanuska coal was ship ped beyond Anchorage. Private oDera. l tions preparatory to mining were continued by two lessees in the Mat. anuska field. and some coal was mined by one Of them, hut their mines are not yet regularly product i've. A detailed account of coal min. ing in Alaska Is contained in 2 report on the Alaska mining indus try in 1918 just issued by the Geological Survey at Washington. D. C.
