MARTIN, EXPERT OF U. S. OEOLOQIOAL SURVEY, SAYS OF COAL TAKEN FROM THE TUN NEL ON OUR PROPERTY. Location of Popeties CONTROLLERS BAY IN SOUTHERN ALASKA, TWENTY MILES EAST OF THE MOUTH OF COPPER RIVER AND THREE HUNDRED MILES WEST AND NORTH OF SITKA. OUR FIRST OIL WELL IS 800 YARDS FROM TIDEWATER AND 2640 FEET FROM TID3 ENGLISH COMPANY'S FAMOUS GUSHER. Climate WE HAVE AN OPEN HARBOR THE YEAR ROUND. THE COLDEST THE THERMOMETER REGISTERED LAST WINTER WAS TWO DE GREES BELOW ZERO. ' Tho 20-foot scam now exposed In tho tunnel on Curium creek is tho most promi8iug coal goon by tho writer. It not only possesses tho greatest thickness, mid is entirely freo from tho bands of slmlo nn other impurities, but us tho ubnve table shows, it is tho purest coal junl has tho highest hestiug power, its composition shows it to bo soiut- nuthriiolto, or tho snmo composition ns tho eoul of tho Bernlco llanin iu J'oiuiH.rlvniiin. Although it is purer , Htul hns a higher heating power than that coal. It dilTers from the nn thrnolto of Pennsylvania nnd Wales, iu having more volatile mutter in proportion to tho amount of fixed curium. Iu tho ratio of fixed enrbon to volntilo mutter its nearer tho Her nlco llnsin coul than to nny other coal that reaches tho general mar ket. In heating power, ns well ns in tho low amount of Impurities, it Is almost Identical with tho Poca hontas steam coal of West Virginia, but excels this coal by having high er proportion of fixed carbon. Thoro is no other coal with which it is likely to couio into general pompeti tition with which it is to bo com pared, for it Is fur higher In heat ing power and hi purity than any that H mined upon tho Pacific const, either ii tho Tutted Stutos, Canada or Australia."
