"MILLIONS OF TONS OF COAL."
(BT TELEGRAPH —PRESS ASSOCIATION.) WESTPORT, Jan. 26. Two carloads of representative citizens, including ladies, to-day made a tour oi the Buller gorge coal and timber fields, and s*pent some time examining the coal mines of Messrs Bin-ley Bros. The mines are situated right in the heart of the gorge, and entered from the roadside. The opinion was expressed that, did the women of the J^guiiuion only realise the vast amount of-easily accessible coal lying , undeveloped in this gorge through the lack of a few miles of railway while the whole Dominion is starving for coal, they would raise such an outcry that no Government would allow such condition! to continue.
