WILL SHIP COAL
Big Corporations Prepare to Do Ac
tive Work on Mines Near
Katalla in Spring..
It is announced that several big coal
mining corporations will begin active
work in the Bering lake coal fields
near Katalla next year. It is now
planned to commence shipping coal |
regularly from those mines by July 1,
1910, and coal operators predict that
in two years more coal will be shipped
from Aalska for general commercial
purposes than is now shipped from the
state of Washington.
Coal has been mined in the fields
near Katalla for some time and a few !
operators are prepared to begin -ship
ping as soon as rail or water transpor
tation lines are provided. The coal
that has been mined in the past has
been shipped on scows and used in rail
road construction, or in mining camps.
Coal can be shipped on scows in the
summer and towed to Katalla with!
comparative ease, but this method is
unsafe during the winter months.
The passage of more liberal coal
land laws by congress last spring,
which permitted the acquisition of
lands of sullicient size to justify de
velopment work has stimulated the
coal industry in Alaska, and next
spring work will begin in earnest.
