In the absence of any definite information, its real value has been very much exaggerated. When our company tock over the control of the mine from the militney authorities, a survey was under- baken by Engineer Kido, who reported the total quantity of coal in the wine to be sbeet 800 million tons, fe my opinion it will be in the neighbourhood of 1,000
million tons, though nothing man be known definitely until the completion of the
Com trial boring now going on.. pated on the basis of information available at present, I am inclined to be- lieve that it would be nearer the mark to put the total quantity of coal in the mine at the latter figurp. That the future of the Fushun mine is by no means gloomy is readily admitted, but it would be to the advantage of noboty to recklessly circulate exaggemted reports as to the productivity nine. Our company is, of course, desirous to develop the mine and to increase the output a specily as possible, but this can hardly be done unless all the preparations, not only these at the mine, but also, those which have to do with railway and shipping facilities, cfo, aro completed.
Engineering works at the wine are being pushed forward, Int the period of work is limited to the months between. April and October, suring to climatic reasons. This circumstance, of course, retards not a little the progress of work. The present scale is based on an estimate of obtaining a daily output of 5,000 tons when the worka are
completed, after which, the uninting oper-
