O RELIEVE coal shortage in the United States The Evening World has urged that the enormous quantities of coal already | mined and lying on the surface of the earth in the huge eulm| piles of the Pennsylvania anthracite region be more immediately, and extensively utilized to meet industrial and domestic needs, The soundness of The Evening World’s plea is shown in the fact} that British manufacturers are at the present moment demanding! coal dust and screenings in forms available for power purposes to an extent which, according to a cable to The Sun, is responsible for the second lurgest deal in the history of the South Wales coal fields: Dr. Llewellyn of Abermare purchased tha Craigola Merthyr Company of Swansea, waich owns the collieries in | the Swansea Valley, covering 6,000 acres and having an annual output of 600,000 tons; also the Pannt fuel works of Swansea with an output of more than a million tons a year, The purchaser, who gave $10,000,000 for the properties, intends to expand the patent fuel factories, and hopes to | solve the problem of mxing all the fine coal which hitherto has | been discarded or used to fill old passages in the mines, Paten: fuel factories mentioned in the despatch are factories which make coa! dust and siftings into one form or another of the briquettes jong familiar to coal consumers in Great Britain, France and Germany. In fact, Americans, with their vast coal resources and their con- fident and prodigal demands upon the same, are almost the only inst the tyranny t year he was the most-talked-of man, for a whi urope.

No Alone of 18 not even arrested To avoid smoke in London, England, briquettes, made from anthracite coal dust, are offered to the consuming public. Taese coal bricks are said to make an excellent fuel and to possess a very high efficiency for steam-raising purposes. Briqueties were thenceforth extensively manufactured and sold! at cheap rates in Great Britain. But the coal barons of the United States never saw enough profit in offering briquettes to an American public accustomed to consume coal wastefully at high prices, In France coal briquettes have been for years as familiar to the small consumer as to the large. Describing what Parisians do with a scuttleful of coal during a war winter in the French capital, Frances Wilson Huard writes in a recent number of the Saturday Evening Post: ; | mass of Secret Pe ed to leave the sceng They recarded his nrewdest of his confederates began to her hed, At once a report was pub- urned he was a spy and had put was found hé & in @ deserted “First of all, one commences by burning it for heating Purposes, rejoicing in every second of its warmth and glow.
