A Lively Wrnnulu Over tlio Question
of tlio lOiiiploynifint of Union
Lmbor In the Construction
of llio ItulldliiK.
Tlio City Council.
MaJorWheolor's patent ballot box won't bo
used in the Omaha elections , at least not
thin month. Tno major is ngonl of a glass
ftldcd ballot box , into which the ballots are
Introduced by the turning of u crank , the nr-
rival of each ballot being announced by the
merry tlnklo of a bell. A sain-
plo bo * ndoniod President Leo's
desk at tbo council meeting last night , and
each of the councllincn In turned toy.od with
the Invention nnd announced his admiration.
'Iho opinion seemed to hnvo changed , however -
over , later In the meeting , nnd when the
major's ' resolution ituUiorizirig the purchase
of thirty of the boxes , to cost not more than
(1:2.50 : each , came up it was put on the table
to keep company with the sample box.
Thoiitho contract for the construction of
Iho city hall came up.
1 ho committee on public property and
buildings presented a-very lengthy contract ,
the ftubstnncc of which was that Mr. Coots
agreed to build Urn hall In n llrst class innn-
iier for ? 2ut ! ) > 75 , using Oodlin granlto for the
llrst story , Heron sandstone for Ashlar work ,
nnd Pnrtogu redstono for trimmings ;
to USD heavy book tiling for iho
roof nnd stone instead of galvanized Iron for
the dormer windows. The work was to bo
completed by December 81,18UO , barring any
delay caused by strikes , etc. The work waste
to bo performed under the direction of an
inspector , to be appointed by the mayor uud
city council.
'Ihu contract wns not approved right away.
Mr. Bedford said , ho believed it wns thu
general opinion of iho'council when tlio city
hall plans wore adopted that the material
should bo red or some diHc colored Htonu.
Ho moved that the contract oo so amended
that Portage red sand stone bo used for
Ashlar work Instead of Boren sund stono.
Mr. Counsman sincerely hoped that the
council would not make any change In the
contract. The committee had discovered
that ICcttto river stone was not fit , nnd
realty could not find anything but Boron
sandstone thnt would fill the bill.
Mr. Wheeler explained , too , that the bid
for Portugo rod stone was only for use as
trimmings , nnd not for body work , and that
if Portugo red is used for Ashlar work a
darker granite should he usi'd for ttio base
ment nnd llrst story.
Mr. Chaffcc said that Mr. Coots would use
Partaga slono for the upper storirs nt nn
advance of ft'JOO ! over his bid , and iho
architects would accept the increase.
Mr. Bedford's resolution was adopted ,
nnd the city hall will be built of Uodlin
granite and Portage red sandstone.
This part of the contract having been set
tled , the question of union labor was dis
cussed nt great length.
Mr. Hascall and Mr. O'Connor Joined in a
roar because the committee had not incor
porated in ttio contract the resolutions
which have been adopted by the council re
quiring that uono but union laborers be
employed In the construction of the
building.
Mr. Wheeler and Mr. Counsman claimed
that the council could not bold Mr. Coots to
employ union labor , ns no such provision was
required in thu advertisement lor bids. Mr.
Chuffco hold thi't ttio section of the contract
required Unit all work on thu city hall should
be done in n manner equal to that done by
tbo best skilled workmen engaged in such
work.
Mr. tiuscall got in n resolution that the inspector
specter o ( tlio work bo appointed by thu
council and bo subject to removal bv a vote
of the majority of the whole council.
The wrangle over the labor question could
not bo seuled amicably , and the contract
was recommitted to the committee with m-
structlons to rclncorporato the labor resolu
tions adopted by the council ut various tunes
and to report the amended contract to an ad
journed meeting of the council to bo held on

A DUEL WITH POTATOES.
How Ilov. SinBowninn Downed n
Desperado.
"This scorns to bo n year of duels , "
Bald Dr. Morrison , of the First Method-
let church to an Atlanta Journal reporter -
porter , "but t notice there are far moro
cluola than blood. It rcinliifls mo of a
famous duel fought in Kentucky la
1813.
"Bill Bowman was n noted preacher
who lived near Mlllorslntrjr. Ho was atypical
typical Kentiicuinn , tall , angular nnd
inuHOultir , Like Sam Jones , ho always
Bald what lie thought. la the midst of
n revival mooting a well-known dospor-
ndo came Into Iho church and began
making a difit.iirbanco. "With eyes Hash
ing with indignation , Bill Bowman
aroao , and , in a ringing volco , publicly
reproved Iho desperado , who at once re
tired from the church.
"Tho next morning the desperado
Rent a. ehallango to Uowinan to light
him a duel. Bowman accepted the
challengennd there wns no four-column
newspaper correspondence , no railroad
trips to an adjoining state , nothing hut
two llttlo notes oao n challenge nnd
the ether an acceptance and then all
wns ready for the light. The town was
tcrrihly oxcitcdj for such n thing as a
preacher lighting a duel had never been
hoard of before.
"Old Bill Bowman being the chal
lenged intui had the choice of weapons.
He selected a htilf bushel of Irish pota
toes as big as his list for each man and
stipulated that his onponont must stand
llftoen paces distant and only ono potato
tate at u time to be taken from the
measure. The town was wild with do-
lignt , for everybody knew that Bill
Bowman could throw with his long ,
muscular arm as straight and almost as
swift as a rillo could bond a bullet
through a target.
"Tho desperado was furious nt being
thus trushly inmiltod , and made nn in
dignant protest against , such u lighthut
Bill Bowman insisted that no was the
challenged man and had .1 right to
choose his own weaponsand threatened
to denounce the desperado ns a coward
if lie failed to come to time. As there
was no way out of the box but to light
the desperaeo finally consented to face
the preacher.
"The light took place on the outskirts
of the town. Every body in Millsburg
was present to bee the fun. The boc-
ends arranged the two men in position ,
by thosido of'each being a half bushel
measure filled with largo Irish potatoes
us hard as a brick.
"Bill Bowman throw the first potato.
It .struck his opponent a central shot ,
and How into a thousand pieces. A yell
of delight wont up from the crowd ,
which rattled the desperado , and nis
potato Hew wide of the tall , bony
preacher.
"Bill Bowman watched his chance ,
aud every time his opponent stooped
for a potato another one hit him in the
side , leaving a wet spot on his clothes
and then scattering itself to the four
winds of heaven. Old Bill hit the
desperado about live times , and then
the sixth potato struck him in the short
ribs , knocking the wind completely out
of * him , and doubling him up on
the grass.
"The people were almost crazy with
laughter , but Bill Bowman looked as
sober as if ho had just finished preach
ing a funeral bormon. Tlio desperado
was taken home and put to bed , and
there ho stayed for moro than a week
before he recovered from the oll'ccts of
his Irish potato duel.
"Tho old moil in Millersburg still talk
about that celebrated duel , but it was
the menus of breaking up dueling in
that section. "
Vioiirlcnis
liming , acting governor of Kiangsu ,
lias written \\itli his own hand a procla
mation calling on ollicinls to Itoop the
young mon their sons or younger
brothers in bettor order , says the
North China Gazette. This governor
some lime ago inveighled against the
fantastic and extravagant attire of tlio
jeiincsso dorco of Soochow , and threat
ened the vigorous enforcement of the
sumptuary law.- What ho now finds
fault with is their rowdyism. Ho gives
an instance as a warning example ,
which sots forth curiously tlio
working of the Chinese 'theory
of the solidarity of unity of tlio family ,
and tlioir system of vicarious punish
ment. The bon of Mr. Wu , an expectant
district magistrate , dropped n handker
chief in the street. A man innocently
picked it up , whereupon the young gen-
tlcmnn stripped olT Ins coat , rolled his
queue round his bond and engaged in a
violent tussle with tlio man , attracting1
a crowd , to disperse which it required a
largo posao of the city magistrate run
ners. The youth escaped arrest , but a
servant in his father's house was placed
in thocangiiu a sort of portable pillory.
The father of tlio young olTenoor wns
absent on olllcial business , and. there
fore , tlio punishment descended on the
next connection of the family , the un-
forluimto servant. Father and son are
considered to have thus received a salu
tary lefason by proxy.

Died Ily Hlfl Own Ilnml.
The ahnrp report of n pistol wns the un-
unual and startling sound that broke upon
the ears of the boarders nt tlio Uovcro house
a few minutes after 7 o'clock yesterday
morulnp. A few seconds later ono of iho
guests , who occupied room No. 12 , rushed
down to thu ofllco en dishabille , convoying
thu astonishing Inforiimlion that iho shot
was flrcd in the room adjoining his , nnd thnt
Bomo ono was hurt. Landlord St. John nnd
Mr. W. Siena Immediately hastened up stairs
nnd burst open tbo door of No. 14 , where the
Bcono of the shooting bad been located.
A single glnuco sullloed to tuko in the
whole Bltuution , On the bed lu.v a mini
writhing In ngony , whllo from n powder-
burned aperture In the loft , breast poured
the red Ufa fluid , saturating Ins brown
Jlnnncl.shlrt nnd dyeing the bed linen a deep
crimson. About afoot from him , , near ttio
front cdgo of the bed , was tlio still smoking
weapon with which ttio deed was done n
: tS-enlbro ! , five chamber revolver , of tlio
liulldog pattern and unknown make.
1'ho suicide , for such bo was , wns yet con
scious , nnd begged tlio spectators , who
flocked to the door , to put him out of his
misery. The chief of police secured the re
volver , and the suffering -victim besought
that otllcml to shoot him ngtiln nnd complete
the work of self-destruction which ho had
commenced , but fulled thus far to accom
plish.
Dr. UolllnRcr was summoned , but after
ascertaining the course taken by the bullet
and its probable location , stated that ha
could do nothing for the man , as the wounu
would prove fiitnl before many hours , lie
washed the wound and stopped the flow of
blood , but could do llttlo to relieve the suf
fering of the patient. The victim's legs
wcro parnly/ed nnd no could not move tbo
lower part of his bodv , bat the physician
staled that it the man lived until noon ho
would probably partially regain the use of
his lower limbs. 'Ibis proved to bo the case ,
and by 10 o'clock tbo patient could move
them to a small extent , but with re
turning animation came increased suf
fering , and Just an the city clock was
striking 11 his heart censed to beat. The
fatal bullet had done Its work , nnd another
life bad gone out in obedior.cn to the reck
less impulse nnd rash act of its owner.
The deceased went to the hotel about-10
o'clock MonJny night , nnd registered as "O.
W. Hamilton , South Ouinbu. " Ho paid In
advance for Ills room , whitbor he wus shown
by the night clerk. Ho naked for a quiet
room where ho would not bo disturbed in
the morning , and it is probable that ho was
oven then planning to take his own life.
After the clerk bade him good night ho was
not seen again until after the awful deed
was done.
When seen by llio reporter , n short time
after the shoaling occurred , lie stated that
ho had registered under his correct mime ,
nnd papers in his pockets bore the name of
Oakley W. Hamilton , corner Twontv-sixth
and N. streets , South Omaha. On his vest
was n bndgo of the Independent Order of
Foresters , aud when asked the name of the
lodge to which ho belonged , ho referred to u
book In an inside coat pocket , which proved
to be tlio constitution und by-laws of Court
Magic City , No. 1GS. of South Omaliu , of
which lodge ho said ho was a member. True
to bis obligations , bo requested that none
but n Forester bo allowed to peruse the
book.
lie stated that be bad a sister , Mrs. M. F.
Hey n olds , residing in South Omaha at the
address nbovo given , und that ho made that
his homo , as did a brother , C. V. Hamilton.
Ho said thnt ho cume over from Omaha
Monday night , but refused to say when ho
wns in South Omnha last , or where ho had
been since leaving thoro. Ho wns quite
rational for some time , and talked i freely on
some matters , but as to the motive ho was
very uncommunicative and would say
nothing , except that "it did not matter why
it was done. "
lie said that lie bolstered up his head with
pillows so that ho could see his breast plainly
and thmi opened his shirt front , lie care
fully noted the motion of the heart , as its
boating could bo seen under the skin , nnd
then placed iho muzzle of tlio revolver close
to his breast and fired. He tried to hold it
BO that the bullet , would pierce the heart ,
that death might be instantaneous , and re
gretted that he had failed. Ho intended to
shoot ngitin , but wus unable to do so.
Ho asked for his sister and was
told that she hud been telegraphed for.
Ho manifested considerable anxiety to see
her , but sbo did not arrive until after lie
died. Only once did ho show any particular
interest in what w.is going on around him ,
nnd tlnit was when n small note book was
taken from quo of his pockets. As it was
ope iod a lock of glossy black hair , tied with
u small piece of ribbon , dropped into the re
porter's hand. The wounded sufferer upon
the bed cast n brief look nt the treasured
token , while his eyes lighted up momenta
rily , then , with a groan ho turned his face to
thu wall und buried his face in the bed
clothes.
The serine foreboro questioning , and the
little book and its sacred contents wcro re-
Htorctl to their place , und later turned over
to llio coroner with the other effects of the
dead man.
Tha Inquest was hold at 11 : ! ! 0 , and a ver
dict returned to the otTcct that the deceased
came to his death by a pistol shot fired by
himself with suicidal intent.
At 1 o'clock tbo brother , sister nnd brother-
in-law arrived from South Omaha , und made
arrangements tor the funeral , which will
lake place to-morrow morning , from thu un
dertaking rooms of field & Estop , where
Ilia remains of the suicide wore removed.
The sister , Mrs. Heynolds , slated lo the
reporter that siia inid not seen tlio deceased
fur four weeks , nnd had not known of his
whereabouts. She hud twice visited Omaha
in search of him , but could get no trail.
She had no Idea what led to tlio rash act.
unless it was despondency caused by 111
health , ns the deceased hud always been
sickly. She stated that bo was twenty-two
years of ano , although continued sickness
made him appear older. Ho was unmarried ,
uud leaves no relatives hero except those
already mentioned.

A rather unusual although amusing inci
dent was witnessed in police court yester
day morning. "Soapy" lirooks , an Individ
ual who frequents the saloons and gambling
houses , and manages to keep his tank full of
whisky from ono year's end to another , was
locked up for general worthlessness. Ills
mother , who resides on Scott street , states
that bo took several articles of underwear
from the house Monday evening , for the
purpose of pawning them to got money witli
to go to Omaha , nnd ttio police accordingly
run him In ,
When he appeared before the bar of
lust ICQ Frank Trimble stepped up to defend
him. The court surveyed the forsaken look
ing pair for u few minutes , while the self-
coustltutcd attorney was delivering u thrill
ing Imranguo in behalf of his client , who
was on the verge of the tretnens , and then
interrupted him with : "That will do , Frank ,
1 am inclined to think that Hrooks is en
titled to Just as much clemency as
you are , and I am glad that
1 havu you both hero together.
Vou both need to bo locked up for a while to
get the whisky out of you , and I propose to
send both of you down for Hvo days. "
"if It please the court , " Interrupted the
smiling though somewhat unsteady Trimble ,
"I quite agree wtti | your honor in regard to
my client. I have his best Interests ut heart ,
and 1 am firmly convinced that live days will

"Oh , you needn't bo afraid of spoiling your
watches , " said Electrician Carruthors , as n
party of visitors at the electrio light station
bold aloof from tbo dynamos. "Come up just
as close as you want to , and I will guarantee
ttiat your tickers will not he lujured. Just
to show you that u magnetized watch can bo
demagnetized I will give you a little exam
ple. Now then , hero is this knife. You BOO

will sco a change. It p.jks up a whole bunch

take out the electricity 1 tie a string around
it , hold it hero by the armature , swing it

sorrowing owners , who thoucht their time
pieces irretrievably ruined. It Is not neces
sary to have a shield nut in a watch unless a
person Is around the dynamos all the time ;
uud then simply for convenience , as it would
require too much tlmo and trouble to be
constantly demagnetizing them. Whoa a

Editor of Tun Bin : : The scholars of iho
Council Bluffs nigh school , feeling Justly in-
dicnanton account of thu false accusations
brought against Captain H. M. Prouty by
some of the members of the school board ,
have unanimously declared tlio statements
to bo untrue and false , and something ought
to bo said in defense of Mr. Prouty.
The Btatcmunt that Mr. Prouty endeav
ored to prejudice the minds of the scholars
ugninKt their principal is without ground.
Mr. Prouty has always said , when he would
hear scholars suy that they didn't line their
principal : "Ho is only peculiar , and wo all
have peculiarities' ; you will lifeo him
when you know him better. " And
in addressing his school this morn
ing ho said : "Treat Mr. Stevens with
respect , for this Is notliis. tault. " As to the
statement that Mr. Prouty neglected his
school duties , iinyonu who known that gen
tleman , without tiven topping to consider ,
would declare it a busu untruth , only m.ido
up to ruin the gentleman's character. The
sentiment of the high > Hchool scholars Is that
Mr. Prouty Is a strlotly conscientious gentle

NKWCASTLI : , VVyo. , Oct. 1. [ Special
to TiiHllKis ] Alliance , which for about
two years hns boon the terminus of the
northwestern branch of the 13. & M.
road , is situated in Dox Butte county ,
415 miles from Omaha. For a year past
the company has boon engaged on the
extension of the Alliance line over the
Pine Htdgo to Crawford , to which place
trains nro now running , and beyond
Crawford through the southwestern cor
ner of Dakota into Wyoming , to n point
in the woslora border of the Black Hills
now known ns Newcastle,575 miles from
ihls city. From Newcastle n practicable
route 1ms been surveyed to Lend City ,
near Deadwood , sovonty-livo milea ,
while by otisy grades Powder river and
the Dig Horn country , over two hun
dred miles distant , can bo reached.
The immediate purpose of the exten
sion to Newcastle , however , has been to
open up a now supply of coal , vhich exists - -
ists in n vein of extraordinary quality
and thickness , and is known to bo con
tinuous over nn extent of 4oUO acres.
As this is not only a fuel coal , but is also
a coking coal , the importance of its ex
istence to the manufacturing as well as
the domestic Interests of Omaha , war
rants ii somewhat careful account of its
discovery and its qualities.
Nearly three years ago Mr. Frank W.
Maadell began prospecting for coal on
the western border of the Black Hills ,
but it was not until about ono year ago
that the extraordinary vein upon which
operations are now beginning was dis
covered and fully tested throughout its
entire extent. Since the discovery of
this deposit , Mr. Mandoll , who is a
practical rather than'a theoretical geologist
elegist , has made more than two hun
dred excavations at different points , in
most cases by drifting in upon it and
exposing it in its entire thickness.
Up to the very last , the great difliculty
had to bo encountered and overcome , of
the doubts concerning the existence of
coal in quantities and of quality which
would assure successful working. This
doubt was removed only jit n quite re
cent datu , when the vein was actually
uncovered nt ninny separate and distant
points , enabling the unprofessional eye
of the practical man nnd the capitalist
to behold its extent and quality through
out.
out.The
The first discovery was made about
eighteen months ago , some six miles
nbovo hero , in what is now known as
Coal canyon. An expert came and
made a prolonged and thorough exami
nation of tlio deposit commercially , es
timated the probable cost of its produc
tion , aud noted tlio natural facilities for
getting it out. After that was done ,
and it was determined to dovolopo the
coal and to build the railroad to this
point. Mr. Joseph Hemingway , a mem
ber of the mining engineers of Oliio ,
and. a gentleman of wide and varied
experience in the coal districts of ling-
land and the United Stales , was called
upon to tnko chargeof the work. Af
ter examination he reported upon the
formation of the vein , its foundation
and roof , and the extent of area over
which woruing would bo profitable.
Operations were begun on March
U(5 ( last. The railroad only ran to
Alliance , from which point all
the heavy machinery for the extensive
works which are now nearly completed
boilers , engines , pipes , etc. had to
be hauled by teams ] / > ( ) miles , and
brought over tlie lofty foot hills on a
road built expressly'for that purpose.
A saw mill has nlto boon put in opera
tion , brick have been manufactured ,
and substantial buildings are boinn put
up , and machinery put in place two
months before the opening of tlio rail
road. Among the machinery is thnt
/or an electric plant , which will fur-
iiiHh power for working the mines and
light for illuminating1 thu tunnels and
works , and lighting the town of ; iOUO
people , which will bo established at the
mines by tlio 1st of December. Water
will bo brought at an expense of 310.000
over nn intervening ridge from u splen
did spring some live miles away , to
supply tlio works and meet ( lie wants
of the people both at Coal canyon and
at Newcastle.
The vein of coal is nn extraordinary
ono. Its thickness is over eignt feet.
The cleavage is at right angles to the
dip of the vein , which greatly facilintos
mining. The vein is in its "wholo ex
tent a dense mass , without a seam or a
fault throughout. It is so hard that 1o
mini ) it by the old method , with piclc-
axe and crowbar , would bo impossible.
Geologically it is quite evident , that it
belongs to the family known as the
jurntriassic , which lies hot wean tlio
carboniferous and crutneeoiis groups , to
tlio latter of which the Hock .Springs
coal belongs. Itt place in geological
nomenclature will no doubt bo the sub-
juct of much disputation among
scientific geologists. The position hero
assigned to it explains its line qualitv ,
ns compared with nil other coals hith
erto dii'ovcrcd in tlio far
west. That it belongs to the family of
coklngcoals , lias been decisively proven.
Ovens have been eroded , and speci
mens of the coke are been , bumo of
which have been taken from it lire in
the open air. The product resembles
in all respects the coke made in the
coal regions of wnntorn Pennsylvania.
Its adaptation to this process will ron
do r it of peculiar value in the mines
nnd manufactories of the Black Hills ,
which have thus far depended on wood
nlono for mining and reduction pur
poses , u'nd on coke transported from
Pennsylvania , by railway and wagon.
The region above Loud City , whore
valuable yet refractory ores exist in
grcut abundance , and down as fur as the
tin mines about Cimor City , will
undergo an extraordinary development ,
as soon as coke can bo cheaply obtained.
Tlio vein dips at an angle of ono degree -
groe with the hori/.on , giving sulllciont
inclination for nil needed purposes , and
affording facilities for drainage should
they at any time bo needed. Tlio vein ,
howovor.so farns Ithasbcon uncovered ,
lies in a bed which is perfectly dry , and
the overhanging rock , which IB several
hundred fuotin thicknessis impervious
to water. The roof is u white , flinty
Hlnto from two to four fuet in thickness ,
underlying the sandstone , and IB per
fect , requiring no Umbers in the work
ing chambers. Underneath the vein
is a Bandfilono layer of six foot , below
which , here and there Is found a hod of
superior lire-clay , eight foot in thlcK-
ness. The dimensions hero given of
the overlying and underlying deposits
are uniform throughout. Thu eandstono
on which the coal rents is of excellent
nnd uniform qnality for building pur
poses , nnd the fire-clay possesses equal
value. The spucillu gravity of the coal
is great , amounting to six pounds nor
cubic foot , that of Pltlshurg coal bolug
only sovonty-nlno pounds per cubic foot.
The height of the conl'bcd nbovo the
son is 5,601 ! foot , or moro than ono mile ,
It enters the bluff fitly foot nbovo the
canyon bottom , nnd the sandstone ex
tends above it for a distance of100 foot.
On either side of the canyon in both di
rections , ns nlso in the adjoining canyons
yens , the evidences are soon of n llro
which completely consumed the vein
for over ono hundred foot within. Tlioro
is in the sandstoito n layer of ashes for
this distance two feet in thicknosSjUpoii
which the superincumbent mass has
fallen , and ono sees within the moun
tain , in the fissures or chimneys nbovo.
the tinge of tlio smoke upon the fnco of
the rock. The fire which has loft those
records must have boon prohistario.
In u neighboring canyon which I vis-
Hod , the excavation for several hun
dred foot has taken plneo sltico tlio date
of the fire , as there nlono the coal was
found outcropping at the surface show
ing no mark of the flames. What has
slnco become a cut through the moun
tains several hundred ! * of loot In depth ,
must there hnvo been at this one point
a solid mass of rook above and below
the vein. In every other instance the
vein is covered up on the bluffs by the
'
debris which has fallen on it' from
above , obscuring from sight the" layer
of ashes that remained , nnd covering up
all appearances of a valuable deposit.
The appearances nro overywhord ex
actly alike. The interior heat melted
the snmlstono immediately above tlio
coal and it ran down in a sing which
nearly fills the cavity formed by tlio
burning out of the coal. After the lire
had extended over ono hundred feet
each way within , the superincumbent
rock was crushed down and the supply
*
of air being shut olT the llaincs were ox-
tinguishctl. Had the vein boon nn or
dinary non-coking conl this would not
hnvo happened ; the coal , however , con
tains a largo amount of bitumen , which
1ms led to its preservation.
There will for Iho present bo two dis
tinct mines operated , ono on either side
of tlio canyon. These will , it is calcu
lated , intersect in IIvo years above ,
when the two will become one mine ,
having two outlets. The mines and Iho
cunyon bning lighted by electricity ,
and the coal being mined and hntiled
out by the same power , work will pro
ceed by night as well as by day.
Tlio mines will bo worked on the
"ronm-nnd-pillar''system. Turning at
right angles from the main shaft , the
"rooms , " thirty feet in width , will bo
driven for 1.00 feet. Partitions will bo
loft between .tho parallel "rooms , "
which will bo twenty foot in thiekm .
Wlion tlio "rooms" nro driven to their
prescribed limit , the partitions will bo
attacked from within , and tlioir con
tents drawn out , and the siiporinnnm-
bout muss will crush in. Columns will ,
however , bo loft along the main entries
sullicicnt to protect them.
The preparations for working the
mines are nearly completed. It is ex
pected to hnvo 120,000 tons of coal ready
for shipment on the opening of the rail
road in November. The Capacity for
production will bo 1,000 tons a ila.v at
the ( ir.st , which will , however , be rap
idly increased until an output , of from
: i,0 ( > 0 to 4,000 tons in the twenty-four
hours is reached. The situation of the
coal is such that other similar mines
can bo opened should they heroine
necessary to meet the demand. There
is no assignable limit to the capacity of
the mines. There is already practically
"in sight" a total of oO.OOO.OUO tons of
coal , which bus certainly no snpurlor.
perhaps no equal , in the United States.
Experienced coal minors will not bo
required lioro. The coal will bo cut by
machinery , the Jeffrey coal cutter
being u.sed , and the JotTroy power drill
for boring hole ? in the mass above for
blastinir. Tlio machine first named
cuts about live inches in thickness , aud
three feet in width under the mass , and
the blast insortod-ut the top throws it
downtons at a time. Tn ono hour work
will bo accomplished by these ma
chines which , under the old system ,
would require the labor of two equipped
miners for throe days , except that tlio
baud work would never have sulllcod
here , on account of the hardness of
the mtibs. The coal will bo dispatched
on cars run by electricity to the mouth
of the tunnel , where a double engine ,
the Knnisny cur loader with n project
ing ariii , will distribute it into the cars
lifty feet below to the amount , , if neces
sary , of " ,000 tons in twenty-four hours.
There svill bo two tunnels 'on each side
of the canyon , ono of which will be a
working and tlioother a ventilating
tunnel. At the mouth of the latter
will bo erected H ventilating furnace
and apanitiis. The towers will be nine
feet in diameter and seventy-five feet
high , and tlio machinery will give a
circulation through the tunnels of 70,000
cubic foot of air per minute. Tbo.en-
tirc machinery , including tlio hoppers
and coal chutes across tlio canyon will
bo completed within forty days.
The canyon hero is bcvcral hundred
foot in width , giving ample aimuo for
nil necessary buildjngs and machiiiory
and for eight tracks which will oo laid.
Above , the canyon oopnrutoginto twoin
each of whioh "tracks will bo oxlumlod
for the blorago of ( imply cars. Tlio
works will give immediate employment ,
to f 00 men , including clerks , ate.which
number will represent the presence of
fully ! ! ,000 people at the mines. There
is ample room , above and below , for Iho
housing of moro than thnt number.
Owing to the p"crfuclion of the system
of mining which I have briefly de
scribed , absolutely no coal will bo lost.
Coal will bo shipped in dilforont siv.os ,
uniform in quality and dimensions
run-of-minu ( largo nm cs ) . lump , nut
and pen , while thu rcsidium of line
material will he used hero for the man
ufacture of coko. . From the miiiuH
down to NiMxcastlo , iho grade cut of
the road will bo from two to four foot
in a hundred , tlio maximum being l.'il )
foot to the mlto. .Tho roau is located
well upon the side of the canyon , bo-
curing it ugaiiibt all possible danger of
flood. At NiHveasUb a space 200 foot in
width and it ilf a milu in length , com-
pribing ton ncroH , bus been leveled off
for dopolti nr.d track's.
The coal weighs " , 'Jll pounds per
cubic yard. This gives 1.0(10 ( tons per
aero o'uu yard in doptli , or nbout 11,000
tons per acre for the ontifo thickncbS
of the vein. The -1,500 acres will at
this ratio produce BOIIIO 50,000,000 tons.
XViih the output of 'i,0)0 ( ) topb a day , one
year's production would bo 1,000,000
tons , and it would require llfty years'
consumption nt this rate to exhaust the
deposit. The Union Pacific coal fields
comprise about 0,500 bquai'o ncrcs. The
product of the Hook Springs , coal lias
iiioronbod from 'M" > tons in 18(18 ( to about
100,00(1 ( tons annually , at which rate
those Newcastle minus would last for
one hundred years. D. C. BftooKS.
