RECENT DISCOVERIES OF COAL
IN JAPAN,
The American Vice-Consul, Harold C.. Huggins, of Nagasaki; in the course of a report to his Government writes:
Recut surveys made at Tojima (an island in Nagasaki Harbour) have con- firmed the opinion of experts that a valuable deposit of coal exists there." Its quality is said to be the same as that of the Takashima colliery coal and in quantity it is thought to equal the Naka- noshima feld near Nagasaki. If this deposit proves as valuable as it is supposed to be, Nagasaki will be most fortunate in having an abundant supply The P.M. str.

PROMISING MINE NEAR SASEBO.
A very promising coal mine has been discovered near Sasebo Naval Station, Sascio, Hino-mura, Nagasaki Prefcoture. It is estimated by those who have ex- amined the outcroppings and seams that the workable area exceeds 4,280 acres. The mina abuta on the seashore, and outcroppings of the seams may be seen in the sand. Work will shortly be legun on this mine, and it is expected that this district (Sasebo) will, as a conSEQUENCE, become very prosperous. The quality of the coal is said to be equal to the famous Miiko ceal.
As Sasebo has no direct rail connection with Moji or with Nagasaki, and is, by water rearer to Nagasak than to Moji, it will be cheaper and more convenient to skip this coal to Nagasaki for export than it will be to send it to Moji, the present great coaling port of Kiushu. This fact, Tho N.Y.K. str. Tosa Maru (Calcutta in connection with the discovery of work- Line) left Calcutta for this port via able deposits of coal on lojima, will give Rangoon and Calcutta on the 7th Februa great impetus to the already well- ary, and is expected here on the 25th started improvement of the commercial condition of Nagasaki. It is quite February.VN
possible that this mine will soon be con- trolled by either the Mitsui Bussen or the Miten Bishi Kaisha, as all the important mint in Kiushu have passed into the hands of one or other of these companies by purchase or through contracts.
