A. luuides, a noted metallurgist and chemical engineer of Denver, Colo., formerly of liidiiu, and a member of numerous sciciititie societies, lie is at present associated with Simon who with his associates is very heavily interested in the bituminous fields of Northwestern IN doThe subject of low teiuju'ra-tur- e rado. carbonization is of special iuter a cat to I'lah and Colorado, said that reason the for recently, the Moflat country has four hundred thousand acres of eoal lauds averaging thirty feet in thickness ami thousand ions to the forty-tw- o acre. This means seventeen billion tons eaiable of producing fmm eight to ten billion barrels of crude jielrol-uand millions in gas and other byproducts iu addition to coke. s The process of low temperature distillation, which was develop'd in Colorado seven jeurs ago, was taken over three years since ty one of the largest eoal companies in Illinois. The pilot plant was moved from Denver and op' rated for fifteen mouths on a basis of fifteen tuns t ltit-term- Ion-ide- rcjire-aenlin- g Green-Lauek- of coal every hours with eonfplcte success. The company is now building a commercial unit on a basis of fifty Ions nt day uud hna marketed all the jH'troleum, gas, ammonia, rokc ami other byproducts fmm the fifteen months of operation of their pilot plant. This process has been and rcjHirted oil by government cvstis and the results have It apears to be the most thoroughly been given over to scientific societies, tested and most practical of the processes invented so far, although great hus been made in (ieruiany, Jirogress and England and in the I'uit-e- d States along the aame lines. What these inventions mean to Northwestern Colorado ran lie easily imagined when we consider that the fuel value of the eoal is not sacrificed but is preserved in coke. The gas is recovered and art of it is used for jilant operation. The excess ran lie used for eleetrie power at practically no cost. The transmission of power on an efficiency basis of IH) per rent has been assured by the Iluuin process, invented in San Francisco and recently bought by the Weatinghnuse interest. This means thut elect rio power can be transmitted from Northwestern Colorado to all parts of the country on a commercially profitable basis. The Midwest Refining company, the Kill pi re Oil and (las and other large concerns are watching the twrtity-l'ou- r d cxieriments in Illinois and also making laboratory tests of their own for additional information. The large coal companies have their engineers in the llol fat country this winter looking up locations and securing titles. 'The interdeietiilenee of industrial cieuce is shown in the fact that recently a machine has lieen jH'rfeeted that will revolutionize the cost of mining coal in all beds with a roiling uf eight feet or over. This cuts and conveys to the surface no less than nine hundred and sixty tons every eight hours with two men oerating. The cutting is done at the top instead of at the bottom and the coal is broken with much less loss from pulverization. The oidy restriction is that tiie ceiling must he at least eight feet in height. By low trinrraturc distillation we mean distillation with heat nnder a thousand degrees Fahrenheit. We have found that the surface of heat exposure hears direct relation to the thickness of the coal lied in the retort and one inch is the limit of thickness. This immediately involves the problem of volume product ion. The Illinois ('mil company seems to lmve solved this problem with continuous operation in the (irccn-Luk machine on a capacity of fifty tons m day, which may jht lie considered commercial." GETTING READT TO KEEP THE PROPERTIES WORKING riTTSBl-RG- . Pa., March iNi.-- Tho preparations being made by sonic of the operators in this district indicate their intention to resume production on an opensbot) basis soou after the atrike on April 1st. Banks of the eoal and iron police guards paid by the operator are being increased Extensive installations of floodlights are being made to reduce the possibility of night attacks on properties. One large union pmduecr is continuing it aales efforts for deliveries after next n Friday. Although all contracts a strike clause this eotnpeny is understood to have intimated that production will be eontinmsl. It is unlikely that attempts will be made to operate mines owned hv steel companies. Mill have mpiirciucnts covered for sixty to ninety day by large stock of coal already on the ground. Present stock are so large that no immediate great advance in prices is likely, even if a complete shutdown of eon-lai- non-uni- on workings should ocifur. Tift outlying production anil stocks in the hand of the consumers will probably keep price at such a level during the first few months of the strike that there will be little temptation for operators to sign a new scale.
