The producer gas Investigations have continued to show the availability of bituminous coals and lignite and peat rich In volatile matter for the production of power and have also indicated the lines along which improvements in construction might reasonably he expected iu order that the producer may utilize all varieties of biadvantageously tuminous coal, and especially fuels now being wasted. The briquetting plant has developed new possibilities In the utilization oi slack coal and anthracite culm as an efficient fuel for combustion on locomotives, both In express service, where a smokeless fuel Is required on entering large cities, and In heavy freight service, where high efficiency In hauling over steep grades Is required for a limited period. Experiments are now being extended to determine the value of briquetted coal for use in the naval vessels of the United States. The plant at Forest Park was dismantled In March, 1907. The sections of steam, producer gas and briquetting were transferred to a new gas plant, erected at Norfolk, Va., and those of coking and washery to a new plant at Denver. The principal chemical laboratory of the fuel testing plant has been removed to Pittsburg, but a branch laboratory will also be maintained at Norfolk for the purpose of experimenting on the gases In different portions of the combustion chambers of Bteam hollers and of gai producers.
