Gentlemen: On the trial trips of the
q. s. S. Baltimore" we used the Poca-
hontas coal. For more than four
hours we ran with forced draught
that showed an average pressure of
2.25 inches.
Under such conditions the fire raised
plenty OF steam, the coal burning with
an intense white heat and but a small
amount of ash was produced
Although the firemen were on for the
entire four hours they were in no way
distressed.
We are entirely satisfied with the ac-
ton of this coal and consider it the
best that we have ever used

Gentlemen: / have been selling Po-
cahontas coal since last fall. For hot
water and steam heating it is unsur-
passed4AhaEin more heat to the ton
than Anthracite and giving quicker re-
suits when the fire is needed to be
frightened. It holds fire well, and, al
together, is very economical coal. We
have more trouble to get the coal tried
than We do in holding the trade after
it is once fairly tested
