THK NOME COAL SITUATION
IS NOT ALARMING
I*ist flail the heavy rains soaked
the coal piJe at the Nome Lighter
age plant so thoroughly that It be
came necessary to rewackc most of
the coal contemplated for winter
consumption. Many tons were so
treated and placed in the big com
pany warehouse, but before resack
ing and removal was accomplished
the cold weather stopped further
work. As a result of this unfortun
ate* i;reumstanee the full tonnage of
the large pile has not been avail
able. The coal boused Is now ex
hausted. but the outside pile sthl
contains in the neighborhood of 100
tons. This coal cannot be made
available for the reason thatjt is
one solid mass and to handle it
would be equivalent to retaining
the coal. Manager Harry Gab*<el
son states that unless some unfore
seen circumstance anises the out
side pile will not be touched until
rr.V'ler weather in the spring.
' h«* Hammon Consolidated Gold
Fields have approximately 251 o;
:i00 tons of excellent coal still un
uv* <1 from the large shipment brot
t.> Nome by them last fall. It is
reasonable to suppose that this pub
lic spirited corporation will again
come to the assistance of the com
munity should an actual shortage
of coal arise.
