NEW BUSINESS ASSURED
FOR ALASKA RAILROAD
SEWARD.—After months of ne
gotiations, during which rates were
agreed upon, a large coal movement j
from the Matanuska branch of the'
Alaska. Railroad to Seward has been!
virtually assured for next season, j
Ceneral Manager Qhlsoir announced. I
The coal will be stacked in ■ yards:
here in thousand or, more ton lots,!
ready for fishing, Bureau of Educa
tion and coast guard boats, stores,
canneries and residences. The rail
road will build bunkers at Seward as
soon as the tonnage justifies it.
The new departure in the Alaska
coal business is made possible through
contracts which are being signed be-'
tween canenries and the Evan Jones
Coal Company, which mines,a good
grade of steaming coal in'*the Mata- I
nuska field. Coupled with .a new rate j
of, $1.50 per ton from the mine to!
tidewater granted by the railroad, |
this allows the company to compete!
with outside shippers.
Representatives of the company arej
now in Seattle negotiating-with can-!
nery concerns, and it is understood!
that enough contracts have already
6eeit signed to insure considerable
tonnage. Manager Ohlson, of thej
railroad, is enthusiastic over the.ar-j
rangemeut as an entering -wedge to-;
ward rail development, which prom- j
ises increased income and -develop-j
