MALLECO

This article appears in Volume V17, Page 490 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MAL-MAR
MALLECO , a province of southern Chile, once a
part
  of the Indian territory of
Araucania
  (q.v.), lying between the provinces of Bio-Bio on the N. and E., Cautin on the S. and
Arauco
  on the W. Area, 2973 sq. m. Pop. (1895), 98,032.. It belongs to the
rainy
 , forested region of southern Chile, and is thinly populated, a considerable
part
  of its
population
  being Araucanian Indians, who occupy districts in the Andean foothills. Gold placer
mining
  has attracted some attention, but the output is small. The
principal
 
industries
  are cattle and wheat raising and timber-cutting. The
capital
  is Angol (pop., 7056 in 2895; estimated at 7638 in 1902), a small town in the northern part of the province, on the Malleco river, and a station on the Traiguen branch of the state railway. Traiguen (pop., 5732 in 1895; estimated at 7099 in 1902) in the southern part of the province is the second town in importance, and Victoria (pop., 6989 in 1895; estimated at 10,002 in 1902), about 20 M. E. of the last-named town, was for a time the terminal station of the main line of the railway.
