TRACK LAYING ON GOVERNMENT ROAD TO BE COMPLETED BY END
 OF MONTH; TRAIN SERVICE SOON

during 1920, B. .000 tons of ocean freight was handled over the docks at Seward and Anchorage for railroad construction purposes. and about 20,- 900 tons during 1921.
 "A very healthy increase in freight and passenger business is ex- pected over the Government Railroad as soon as track connection is mad with Interior Alaska. Freight mov- ing to the Interior via the White Pass and Yukon R R., and via St. Michael, thence by river steamers on the Yukon and Tanana will unques- tionably be diverted to the new line and this additional tonnage should tend to substantially increase the commercial freight and passenger earnings of the railroad, as well as stimulate and improve business ac- tiyities in the Panama Valley district.
 Coal Tonnage
 "Other than the Interior business expected after through track connec- ton is made, the best outlook for tonnage for the new railroad lies in the direction of the Matanuska coal fields.
 "The Alaska Government Railroad has been mining coal at Eska for some years, but only as a necessary measure to secure coal for railroad operation and construction purposes. No specific appropriation has been

Navy Depart ment started investigations at Chick aloon in August, 1920 that se= rious beginning was made to produce navy steaming coal in quantities. The. Alaskan Engineering Commission has been under contract with the Navy Department to mine coal and carry on development work, under the di- rection of a Navy Alaskan Coal Com- mission, resident at Chickaloon, and IS a result, about 100000 tons of good steaming coal has been blocked out in the old railroad workings.
 At the same time more extensive coal beds have been under investi- gation at Coal Creek and Kings River. The navy coal mining pro- gram. taken into consideration with the erection of a modern coal clean ing plant at Sutton, on the Mata- nuska branch railroad, and the de- velopment of one or two separate units by private coal companies. points to future tonnage for the Al aska Railroad

Steel laying on the Alaska Rail road, with the exception of rails across a structure at Riley Creek, Mile 347. will be completed by the end of November according to a statement sent to The Empire by Colonel Frederick Mears, chairman Of the Alaska Engineering Commission. It is expected that the Riley Creek bridge structure will be in place be- fore February l. 1922 thus providing through traffic between Seward, An chorage and Nenana.
 From Nenana to Fairbanks traffic is handled by narrow gauge sys- tenn, connected in summer by ferry across the Panama River and in win ter the narrow gauge track is laid across the ice in the Panama.
 Progress on Alaska Railroad
 Colonel Mears in the following statement gives a resume of the Com missions activities:
 The United States Government Railroad in Alaska has been making good progress during the past year and earlier than is generally realized, the terms of the Congressional Act, calling for railroad from an all the-year-round port on the south coast of Alaska to the navigable waters of the Interior, will have been complied with
 "On November there was less than 20 miles of track to lay to close the gap in the Interior section. Five hundred and twenty-five miles of rail road are now in operation with train service twice a week in each direc ton.
 During Governor Bone's recent trip over the southern end of the railroad, his special train, made up of standard equipment, travelled total distance of 6SS miles during the time the S. s. Alameda was on the voyage between Seward and An chorage and return. The Governor saw every foot of the railroad and at times his special was travelling over the rails at the rate of 50 miles an hour, which speaks well for track and roadbed
 Business on the Increase
 with the additional trackage opened up for operation during the past year, the local business is on the increase, and there has been more travel over the road than ever before During the past F months 30,000 revenue passengers have been carried over the Alaska Railroad many of these. in the old pioneer days. would have been required to travel by dog team.
 "The commercial freight received from Seattle at the ports of Seward and Anchorage points to increasing prosperity Commercial freight re ceived from ocean carriers at Seward in 1920 totaled 5,9S6 tons. In 1921, it will amount to 5000 tons. A. Anchorage in 1920 the commercial freight received was 5,642 tons. In 1921 it will amount to 13,000 tons. In addition to the commercial freight,
