26 COAL AND TIMBER February, 1905 WEST VIRGINIA —A new tipple is to be erected by the Moore's Run Coal Company at their mine at Devil's Elbow, W. Va., as soon as the lumber., which has been contracted for arrives. —The Standard Scale Company, of Pittsburg, is installing a 100 ton track scale and a six ton tipple scale at the mine of the Alpha Coal Mining Company, at Plymouth, W. Va. —General George W. Curtin has just purchased 13,000 acres of timber lands in Nicholas County, W. Va., on the line of the West Virginia Central Railroad and will begin to market the timber at once. —A new corporation, the Red Rock Fuel Company, has been chartered with a capital stock of $1,000,000. The company will operate in Upshur County, W. Va., but the headquarters will be located at Wheeling. —About 400 acres of coal and surface all lying on the south side of Buffalo Creek, in Donegal Township, W. Va., have recently been purchased by D. H. McPherson, as he believes the old State Line Railway will soon be run up Buffalo Creek from Wellsburg, W. Va. —Butts, McCormick & Wilson Company have purchased the entire holdings of Henry Spies, in Webster County, W. Va. The property transferred consists of several thousand acres of coal and timber lands and the narrow gauge railroad, which extends up to Hacker Valley. —Large purchases of coal lands are being made in the region of Broad Top, W. Va., and it is rumored that the Wabash is about to secure control of the Huntington and Broad-Top Mountain R. R. and Coal Company, and will extend the road up Stone Valley to connect with Beech Creek. —A charter has been issued by the Secretary of State of West Virginia, to the West Virginia Timber Company, of Charleston, to deal in timber and timber lands. Capital stock, $100,000. Incorporators: George E. Breece, George E. Price, R. P. Flannary, Buckner Clay, and Harrison B. Smith, of Charleston. —Receivership proceedings for possession of the steamer Clifton at Parkersburg, while she was enroute from Pittsburg to the Tennessee river with 27 barges of coal belonging to Walfoik & Co. of Pittsburg caused a temporary tie-up of the coal, which was later released. The removal of the steamer's license by one of the parties to the suit was the beginning of the trouble. —The Lorain Coa! and Dock Company expect the new opening at the Lansing mine to be ready for use in a short time when they will abandon the present one and do away with the incline to the tipple. With the use of the new opening more men will be put to work so that the number of miners employed will be greater than in the Wheeling Creek mine, wdiich is now the largest in that section of West Virginia. WHY NOT ARBITRATION? In another column we print a Press dispatch, which states that certain mine operators have brought suit against a railroad company for damages, alleging discrimination against them in the distribution of cars. There always has been, and always will be, a wide difference of opinion from the operators and railroad points of view, and we doubt if a jury or judge can be found competent to adjust the matter to the mutual satisfaction of all concerned. We suggest arbitration as a more reasonable and satisfactory solution of such difficulties, and thus save friction, cost and delays, incident to a suit at law. We want agents to solicit subscriptions for "Coal and Timber." Liberal commission. Write for terms. Coal and Timber Publishing Company, 801-2-3 Arrott Building, Pittsburg, Pa. BESSEMER COAL AND COKE COM PANY. Will Move Offices to Pittsburg. The Bessemer Coal & Coke Company, which owns valuable coal properties in East Deer, West Deer, and Fawn townships, Aligeheny County, will move its general offices from Cleveland, O., to Pittsburg, on March 1, next. This was decided by the stockholders at the annual meeting at the Hotel Lincoln, January 31. No building for the location of the offices has yet been selected. The stockholders elected this directorate: C. J. Brokenshire, J. C. Trask, F. W. Wood and E. H. Baker, of Cleveland, O.; George H. Love, Johnstown; E. M. Love, Somerset; Dr. J. C. Lange, L. F. Demmler and William Steinmeyer, Pittsburg, and Colonel J. R. Branch and Wilfred Johnson, New York. The directors organized by electing C. J. Brokenshire, president; George FL Love, vice president; J. C. Trask, treasurer; E. M. Love, secretary, and F. W. Wood, general manager. These are the old officers, as there was no contest. The company's property is to be improved during the year. The stockholders instructed the directors to increase the output of the mines by making more outlets for coal. A FINE CALENDAR. Altogether the most artistic and useful calendar which has come to our notice this year, is the one received from the Kanawha Fuel Company, Charleston, W. Va, It is of black leather with gilt metal ornaments, and. contains an ingeniously arranged perpetual calendar, a "little beauty,, of a clock, a thermometer on one end and a barometer on the other. It is the most convenient and serviceable desk ornament we have ever seen. WEST VA. COAL PRODUCTION. Chief Mine Inspector, J. W. Paul, in reviewing the work of the past year in the COMII mines of West Virginia, says: "The mines in the State, as a whole, averaged 209 working days during the last fiscal year, and produced 30,222,880 net tons of coal; and the coke ovens turned out 2,276,451 net tons of coke, an increase over the previous year of coal, 4,559,539 tons, and of coke, a decrease of 206,925 tons. For the calendar year the coal production will show, in round numbers, 30,500,- 000 net tons, and coke, 2,000,000 net tons. 'For the fiscalyear ending June 30, the production of pick and machine mined coal was: Pick-mined, 20,907,065 tons, or 69.2 per cent., and machine-mined,9,315,815 tons, or 30.8 per cent., respectively, of the entire production. 'There were- twenty-eight companies. whose combined output was 48.5 per cent. of the entire production of the State, each of which produced not less than 200,000 tons. "There are forty-nine companies, each of which produces over 100,000 tons, but less than 200,000 tons, and forty-six companies, which produce each between 50.000 and 100,000 tons; and of the 538 shipping mines in the State, the average production per mine is 56,176 net tons; but many mines exceed this tonnage and a greater produce less. number "The machines in use have increased in number from 795 in 1903, to 988 in 1904, and gave an increased production of 2,245,374 tons. —The Princess Land & Mining Company, of Princess, Ky., contemplates early resumption of operations at their mines, which have been idle for several months.
