THE EVENING SEEK T0 CURTAIL USE OF PEA COAL { Anthracite Operators Adopt Standards Making Chest- nut Size Smaller. By the Associated Press NEW YORK, March 21-—The an- thracite operators’ conference an- nounced vesterday that producers of 98 per cent of anthracite tonnage had agreed to its recommendation of a standardization of sizes, which will provide an accurate measurement for hard coal for the first time in its his- tory. The agreement was reached after a Samuel D. Warriner, chairman of the conference, said “The principal effect of the action taken will be to cut down the per- centage of pea coal, and to that ex- tent to eliminate as far as possible one of the sizes of anthracite for which demand has decreased, owing to improvements in heating devices, and increase the supply of chestnut, which has been inadequate.” The agreement, according to the announcement, makes the following standards effective April 1: “Broken — Coal which passes hrough a round mesh 4 7-16 inches | nd will not pass through a mesh | -16 inches. Egg-—Coal which passes through a round mesh 3 7-16 inches and will not pass through a mesh 2 §-16 inches. “Stove—Coal which .passes through a round mesh 2 8-16 inches and will not pass through a inches. “Chestnut — Coal through a round mesh mesh 1 9-16 which 19-16 passes inches IF‘IHHHIIIIIIIIII..\\'IFJIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllfi\'f:lfll Illllflilt"\'f STAR, and will not pass through a mesh 11-16 inch. “Pea—Coal which passes through a round mesh 11-16 inch and will not pass through a mesh 8-16 inch.” Smaller Chestnut Provided. Chestnut coal under the new stand- ard was seen to call for an increased percentage of large pea, but it was said to have been demonstrated by practical test “that its fuel value is equal to, if not greater than, the old standard,” and furthermore, the re- maining pea coal would be more uni- forra in size. The agreement also specified that the maximum of undersiz not be more than 15 the proviso that in tl nut only an additional 5 allowed for unave : Per Cent Impurity.
