ABOUT THE CAMPS OF THE BIG CARBON DISTRICT Price Kenilworth worked every week day during the month of January. Coal from that camp is in much demand. The properties there are going at almut full capacity. Lump eoal from the Sego mines of the Anierienn Fuel company is selling at twelve dollars a ton at Moah, delivered. It is hauled from Thompsons liy wagon and trurk. mines There are now twenty-seve- n working in the Carlton ilistriet with close to $750,000 monthly. payroll Seven of these are in Spring Canyon. Two lines of railroad take the product of these out. Salt Lake City brokers are quoting United States Fuel rompany shares (7 ter rent preferred) at seventy rents hid and eighty asked. Independent Coal and Coke fifty and fifty-fiv- e and Standard Coal seventy offered and eighty asked. William Littlejohn, general superintendent of the Utah Fuel rompany, wa in Priee last Monday after a trip to Runnysiile. lie say the shntdown of No. 2 mine there is but temporary. The market for coke is not holding up to expectations. This is the reason for its elosing. Dan Harrington, formerly eonneet-e- d with several of the local rompanies lint now with the United States bureau nf mines at Salt Lake City, was at Snnnysiile last Monday on an in sport ion of the two properties over there. He later went to Castle Gate and other ramps in that vicinity. P. J. Heckler of Maeser ward was n instantly killed in the mine out near Vernal one day last week by' a rock fall. Jim Fisher, who was in the room with him, escaped without injury. The latter beard the crack overhead and gave warning to his companion, bnt it was not in time. Deeeaseid is survived by a widow and three children. Mine No. 2 of the Utah Fuel company at Snnnyside, where fifty men have lately been employed, was shut down last Monday. No market for this eoal is given as the reason. It is understood the men are to be cared for at other camps of the big eoncern. All the eoal from No. 1 property goes into coke. Some two hundred and fifty miners are employed in and about it Edward K. Judd, mining engineer, and J. K. Mabba, research expert both from New York City finished up their work of inspection at Kenilworth a few days ago and were at Snnnyside the latter part of last week.
