Phenomenal Success in the Birmi ngha m Dist rict.

T he success of the Stewart system of wash1ng C<•al m the B1rmmgham ch,tnct h

httlc less than wonderful Introduced at first mt<• the cl1strict hv the l;,tt ~lr ~tewart in a small plant, r~washing_ the refuse pile _made by an<>ther t~:pt of washery, 1t 11as shown such success m handhng these pecuhar t"<>als that the Stewart system. and some 1mitations thereof. ha\·e become well nigh univers;,l To name the plants Ill the district where the system is u~ed. would almost ht givmg a diretV•rv of the coking coal mines of Birmingham and Chattanooga clistri<.:ts .. \ n apnr<>XImate estimate of the daily capacity of the Stewart type wa-.hcries in th1s rhstrict shows a capac1ty of not less than 18,000 tons a day

Stewart washed coal pulls all the street railway c;,rs and furnishes all the lights in the city of Birmingham.

Stewart washed coal pulls all the street railway cars, and furnishes the electnc lights in the city of Xew Orleans and evaporates nearly all the sugar manufactured in that city. In a ll the competitive tests that ha\'e been made in the south in the last two years, of heat units of coals, t o determine the letting of large coal contracts on the B . T . U. basis, the Stewart vVashed Coal has won the tests and secured the contracts without any exception.

The uniformity of product and the freedom from gt>Od coal in the refuse, as regu · larly obtained in the Birmingham district. has not been excelled 1n any part of America hy any of the more elaborate processes.

The Roberts & Schaefer Co. of Chicago are s<>le licensees under the Stewart patents

Explosiv ies used in Coal :\lines.

The great loss of life caused by gas and dust explosions in b1tuminous ..:oal mmes has compelled the attention of the mining world to the \'ital necessity for the u,;e of cxplosi,·es which will not ignite gas o r dust. These condlti()ns are ideally met by C.\ R BO:\" ITES :\"OS. I, :2 and :3, ;.IQ :\" OBEL and ~I ETEOR, de,·eloped and per­fected by the progressive Du Pont Company as the result of exhaust1,·e experiments and a long, thorough series of tests under actual working condlll{)lls Their great popularity is due not only to their safety features, hut also to the quantity and con<htions of the coal produced.

St eel :\line Cars.

· The B1rmingham Car & ;.Ianufacturing Co., one of :\"orth Birmingham's most enterprising industries, has gone extensi,·ely into the manufacture of ~teelmine car,; and has secured large orders in competition with the lea<hng :\"orthern manufac· turcrs. Steel mine cars ha,·e already passed through the experimentn.l stage <llld are recogni~ed by many leading operators as the car to cut the cost of repair-; to a minimum.

Locomotives For Gathering.

Perhaps the most noteworthy feature of the past year in mine equipment. as reported hy the Goodman ~lanufacturing Co .. Chicago. was the rcm<trkahle increase in the use of gathering locomoti,·es. :\"o new mine of modern character'" planned without definite consideration of the gathering schemt'. 'nth a new to immed1ate or later use of locomoti\'es in this work. ~(any old 1111nes arc adoptin~ the ··elet·t­nc mull''' just as rapidly as possible and in numerous case~ till' haula)!e is now nn a t'omplctcly mechanical basis.

German Invention For Defective Fire Damp.

Consul ] . I . Bnttain. of Kehl. quotes from recent 1ssue of a Stra,shurg pap<.'r the account ol a discovery by Professor Grihant. by wh1ch the presence of fir<.' damp in the air of a mine may be determined e ,·en when the gas 1,; present 111 the atmn,;phere in so small a proportion as 1-:200 of I per cent T'he article says the inn'ntion is simple in t'onstruction a nd easy to understand. I t cons1sts of a t'olumn <>f metal. supporti ng above a cup and below a rod, connected \nth an clectr11: current Be­tween the litllc inver ted cup at the top and the rod bl'low 1s placed a graduat<.'d lube, bell shaped, into which is introduced the ga:< for analysis By the inventu>n it will thus be easy to determine the pre:;ence in the air of a m1nt' tht' t'''stt'nce of fire damp in small quantities before it becomes dangerous.

COAL TRADE 1908 A PUZZLING SIT UATION.

:\early se\·cnty million tons of bituminous lopped off tht• ~·oal output of l!lfl7. 1.<> arrive at the production of 1908,measures the tnfluenn· of the lnt~tnt·~s dcpres~ion upon the coal t rade. This means a decrease of ahou t IIi', from tlw nTorcl I. rea kt ng figures of the preceding year.

The curtailment of output covers the country hkc a blanket, apparenth· no section escaping the blighting influence of the slowtng down of bu,.,tness acti~·itv, says Mr. Edward \V. Parker of the U. S Geological Survey in a spe<·tal re\·iew ;,f conditions in The Black Diamond.

The decrease of coal output for H)08 in some districts was brought about h\· over-product of 1907. The coal situation in general has been a puzzling one The Operator, Sales Agent and Retailer shared alike in greatly reduced profits, there having been even a g reater slump in prices.

l t. is estimated t hat the decrease in coke production in 1!108 was much larger than the decrease in the output of coal, for it. seems probably that the production of coke in Pennsylvania in 1908 wi ll not exceed sixty per cent of that of the pre­ceding year, with values showing a still larger decrease.

The unusually d r y season d id not adversely affect the output of coal in .\la­bama, but., on the other hand, served rather to increase it because :\cw Orleans and many other river towns that ordinarily are supplied principally wtth Ptth­hurgh coal have called on Alabama for an uncommonly la rge supply, the low water in the Ohio river having prevented the usual amount of Pittsburgh coal from bctng brought to those markets. One of the larger operators states that if tt had not been for this rather unusual river-town demand the commercial coal hustness of Alabama would have suffered more than it has done at any ttme during the htst twenty-five years.

It is the general concensus of opinion that after the first of the year, and par­t icularly a fter the tariff contro\·ersy was settled, the demand for steam coal would improve, and the production for 1909 it is estimated will surpass that of the re~.:ord breaking year of 1907.

The Coal Car That Went Astray

A claim made by the Cedar Hill Coal Company against the Colorado & Southern Railroad brings out a strange fate that overtook a car of coal sent from the Trinidad district in Colorado to Carman, Okla. It was o\·er a vear in transit, nnd finalh· it turned out to be not all coal, any way. The car was loaded at the mines of 'the Cedar H ill Company, but somebody made a mistake and failed to route the car. Then, after it started, eYery switch engine that got within hailing distance of the car coupled on and hauled it somewhere and dropped it. \\'hen its tweiYe­nwnth journey 0\'er many strange roads was ended. and it finally reached the Okla­h<lma consignee, it not only belonged to him body and soul, hut he had to pay $107 .1:J more freight than the price of the car came to. He paid, charging it to the coal company, and when he opened the car, which had I·een sealed, he found that instead of being all coal there was manure weighing three tons in the ~ottom oi the car. He made claim on the coal company (or this addition to his credit. freight and all. Then the coal company tackled the railroad for the overcharges in freight, hut has no t satisfied the consignee as to the origin of the manure. The explanation given by the consignee is that the car had t-een med for a stock <·ar without prorer attention, o r as a dump car for manure and the coal company filled without taking

• pains to ascertain if it were empty. There was some leYity in court, as it develoJ ed that the coal cc,mpany lost the car of coal altogether, and then had to pay the rail­road $!1R, pay the consignee$-!).!:~. and then stand for the (i,OUO pounds of manure sent t he consignee in lieu of the coal he ordered. E\'en the coal compan{s lawers had to laugh . T he coal company will take the cn~e to the Interstate Commerce Commission.

The ma~:hinc is dependant in its operation on the differenn: in hardnl•ss of the of the impurities and the good coal. The Run-of<\line is fl·d clire<.:tly to the lllal·h-

. inc and the impurities, including slate, bone and sulphur balls, being harder. tend to resist the breaking action due to tumbling and are thrown out the far end of the machine, while the good coal , bein~ softer. is broken and goes through the sneen-platcs into the storage hin. In addition, the Cle:uwr ha>' been found t o remo\·c all kin<b of stray iron, thereby protecting the Puh·erizer or \\"ashmg madl-
