ChiiwIck, chief of the equipment bureau
of the navy. has received the complete
reports of the commanders of the ships
engaged in the Bering sea patrol on the
results attending the experiments with
Pacific coal. Five vessels had some of this
coal aboard, and they consumed about
10000 tons. The trials were confined TO
the Fairhayen and Blue Canyon coal, and
while they were not rs thorough as is
deemed necessary to fully establish the
quality of the coal, the result was very
satisfactory as far as disclosed. Secretary
Herbert mas determined TO pursue the ex-
pertinent further, and will cause one of
our naval vessels TO make exhaustive tests
of the fuel, probably using it on a cruise.
