JOHN CAvANAUGH, of the Ogden Coal
and Cooking Company, came up from
the mines yesterday. He reports the
most satisfactory progress being made
in the manufacture of coke from the
company = coal He is an experienced
coke maker and first class chemist, and
any opinion he may give upon the
coking qualities of coal, can be relied
upon, as that of thoroughly prac
tical man. He is perfectly satisfied, and
the result of his labor at the mines
establishes the fact beyond the posi-
bility of successful contradiction that
the coal of this company is
the finest coking coal west
of Pennsylvania, being superior
in every particular to anything that
Colorado can produce. He speaks very
highly also of the forge qualities OF the
coal as icing superior for welding pur-
poses to any other he has ever tried.
Its superiority for ordinary household
uses is so well known in Utah that no
reference need be made here on that
score. 1t is satisfactory to know that
arrangements have been completed for
working these mines in the production
of both coal and coke on an extensive
scale. There is no waste in mining this
coal as the slack makes the finest quality
of coke. This company is solving the
problem in a practical manner, Cf
Utah's future prosperity and develop
ment.
