Lehigh Valleys Storage I ard Mt Chi .
cagO One Of the Largest.

The coal storage plant of the Lehigh
Valley Railroad company. on the Calu-
met river. at Chicago, opposite one
Hundredth street. which has been in
the course of construction since Feb
ruary. has been completed and is now
really for use. The plant consists of
three large storage houses. 26O by 12O
feet each. with total capacity of 225,-
600 tons of coal. Each storage house is
fitted up with an Independent engine
for the transferring of coal to and from
the bins. On the dock front are located
the loading pockets and the hosts. The
pockets are 500 feet long and "a feet
wide. The hoists extend more than hair
the length of the loading pockets and
are twentyfour feet wide.
Two loading tracks extend along the
pockets. one under the hoists in front
and one behind. or between the loading
pockets and the storage houses Tno
tracks run over scales located west of
the pockets near the brick boiler
house. The loading pockets where the
outgoing loads are weighed have a stnr-

veyors and various openings to the
storage bins are SO designed and con-
structed as to give the least possible

A big crowd saw yesterdays
game.
Wellner was an easy mark for
the Bronchos.
They found him for 10 hits, while
Sunday this same man held them
down to three.
The Bronchos put up an almost
errorless fielding game. The Sem
ators played like a lot of school
boys.
The work of their infield was as
yellow as their clothes, and for
seven innings little frankie Parvin
was a puzzle to them.
The score in the eighth inning
was 9 to 2, and in their half the
Senators got three hits off Parvin,
giving them three runs. In the
last inning they made another
run, the final score being 9 to 6 in
favor of San Antonio.
Steve Butler was the umpire, and
his position was not a pleasant
one. The trouble with Butler is,
he argues with the players and
does not maintain the dignity that
the position requires. He has
evidently learned by this time that
there is some difference between
umpiring league and exhibition
games.
