E!G STORAGE PLANTS BUILT BY
MINING COMPANIES.
About Ten Per Cent, of Annual Pro
ducticn Is Held in Reserve for Va
rious Reasons—Fuel Now
Handled by Machinery.
New York.—Storage facilities have
been increased by the anthracite min
ing companies within the last five or
six years to an extent that few people
outside of the coal business realize.
Recently a prominent engineer sai l
that it was a conservative estimate
to put the reserve capacity at ten
per cant, of the annual production.
Strikes, interrupting production, were
largely responsible for the wide
spread and rapid construction of plants
where fuel can now lie accumulated
for a "rainy day."
The object of the companies is to
render the coal supply steady to pre
vent the sudden fluctuations in the
market which have been, at certain pe
riods, very embarrassing to the entire
public. A vast outlay of money has
been made for the up-to-date, mechan
ically operated plants which have
sprung up on the Atlantic seaboard, I
in the ccal regions, on the great lakes I
and along the lines of the railroads, j
The result of the outlay will be a year- j
’round tranquillity in the coal trade— :
as far as fuel famine is concerned.
The millions of dollars thus spent I
have added millions of tons to the I
total storage capacity. Though the '
investment is one of the kind that in
itself brings in no return, it had to
be made. The growing demand and
the possibility of future interruptions
of mining made ample storage an ab
solute necessity.
It is not many years since the stor
age of anthracite coal, compared with
other branches of the industry, was re
garded as comparatively unimportant.
•Now, nothing is more essential to
a producing company than to have its
ample reserve—a reserve which can
be drawn upon at any moment for
vast quantities of fuel in case of a
strike or any other untoward circum
stance. When it is considered that
the marketable output of anthracite
last year was 67,109,293 tons the ex
tent of a ten per cent, reserve can be
•appreciated.
Coal storage nowadays is a science,
like mining itself. It lias its own pe
culiar conditions, its experts, its in
ventions. No longer is coai dumped
from a car by the crude, old-fashioned
methods, and loaded into another car
j in the same crude way. Electricity
and steam have come into play here
as nearly everywhere else. The day's
work is measured in thousands, of
t.ms, the year's in millions.
Storage plants represent a large part
of the capitalization of coal com
panies. The fact that they bring no
direct profit in themselves cannot de
lay their construction. They are a
necessity of modern industry. The
machinery with which they an1
equipped, though enormously costly,
is as necessary these days as the
storage piles. Jf anthracite produc
tion continues to increase as it has
increased in bast years, more and
more capital will be required to be
put Into storage plauts.
As anthracite and bituminous coal
differ in chemical composition, and
in the manner of their mining, so
they are very differently stored. As
a ruje, bituminous coal is stored by
the consumer or by some middleman.
Anthracite, on the other hand, has to
be stored by the producing company.
This is due in part to the fluctuation
in the demand for the several sizes I
of the hard coal.
Bituminous coal must be stored
in piles not more than 35 feet high,
to avoid the danger of spontaneous
combustion. Anthracite can be stored
in much deeper idles. It can be
handled with bucket conveyors and
other similar implements, on account
of its hardness, but it must be so
handled that excessive breakage will
not result. ‘ Breakage is a most im
portant consideration in the anthracite
industry, because the smaller the
coal the lower the price. Every piece
of coal that breaks means so much
transferred from a superior to an in
ferior variety.
A coal storage plant that represents
tlie modern state of the science is the
Lehigh Valley Coal Company’s new
one at South Chicago, it has a com
fortable capacity of 125,000 tons, bin
this could be stretched under neces
sity. The structure is four times as
large as the Coliseum in Chicago, and
larger than the l^ake Shore passenger
station. It is 540 feet long, 231 feet
wide and 72 feet high.
Even more remarkable than the
building itself is the mechanical
equipment. Thirteen men are all
that are required for the working
force now, and 20 will be ample in the
season of open navigation, when boats
arrive daily with cargoes to be un
loaded. By means of a “box-car load
er” four men do the work which it
used to require 34 to do.
FREE PREMIUM DEAL.
Get-Rich-Quick Concern Put Out of
Business by Postal Department.
Verily, fishing is good for the catch
ers of gudgeons and the various other
kinds of suckers. They are caught of
every class and kind, and so numerous
are they that the post office depart
ment of the government pays out
thousands of dollars monthly to pro
tect them. But whether it is worth
while to keep the brainless persons
from parting with their change is the
question. Yet it is one of the be
nign features of our government ma
chinery to protect children, women,
fools and incompetents in general, and
as far as possible punish those who
make any department of government
the means of defrauding them. R >
centlv a fraud order was issued
against a New York city mail order
concern, claiming to be "dealers in
any kind of merchandise.” It. had
been doing an extensive business, and
in the possession of the New York
postmaster when the- order went into
effect were 5,000 letters, each of
which was supposed to contain 88
< ents to pay packing charges on a
“premium, a very valuable, beautiful
silver fruit dish, gold lined, and guar
anteed quadruple silver plate.” These
articles had cost the concern 30 cents
each. The letters in the post office
addressed to the company were in
response to a circular which in
formed the “lucky" person that “yor.
answered a premium offer some time
ago, and we have just completed the
list of the fortunate ones who may
receive presents, and are now' ready to
ship them. Your name is on the lia•.
and this notice is sent that von may
claim (he present.” Then the gen
tle touch of 88 cents was made to
"cover expense of packing.” This is
only one of hundreds of similar com
cerns which cause the post office de
partment great annoyance, and the
unsuspecting heavy losses.
How to Light a Fire.
Most people when setting a fire lay
the wood fiat, criss-cross over the
paper in the bottom of the grate, but
let them try placing the wood slop
ing from the sides of the grate to the
center. This forms a funnel for a
free passage of air, and as the flame
travels up the stick more quickly than
It does across the result is that fewer
pieces are required, and the fire burns
up more brightly and in half the time
that it usually takes, says Woman’s
Life. Then w*sen placing a lump of!
coal on the fire if you wish it to last a
long time lay it with the grain of the
coal running across, as the flame
travels more slowly across than up
ward.
Death Was on His Heels
Jesse l’. Morris, of Skippers, Va.,
had a close call in the spring of 1907.
He says: “An attack of pneumonia left
me so weak and with such a fearful
cough that my friends declared con
sumption had me, and death was on
my heels. Then I was (tersuaded to
try Dr. King'.-, New Discovery. It
helped me immediately, and after tak
ing two and a half bottles I was a well
man again. I found that New Dis
covery is the best remedy for coughs
and lung disease in all the world.”
