Tor any extensive tests Of its value to

made trials showing the evaporation Of
eight and a third pounds of water to one
pound Of coal. This is only fraction OF
pound less than the evaporation secur-
ed with the Franklin coal.
Chemical Composition.
The best grades of Vancouver island
coal average about G per cent. fixed car
bon. This average Is closely approached
by South Prairie, the Wilkeson cokeing
Goals and some of the Whatcom and Ska
git county Goals, but the general run OF
the Washington steam Goals IL lower,
Picked specimens can he secured showing
remarkably high percentage OF fixed
carbon. and some such specimens have
been analysed and the result announced.
but such analyses are no true indication
of the veins from which they come.
The Mckay vein coal. although one OF
the best for steamer use in the North
west. shows an average OF less than so
per cent. fixed carbon.
To show the general composition OF the
Washington GOALS the following analyses
are given. Most OF these are from tests
made by the companies operating the
properties and comparatively few have
been made with the idea OF striking an
average and showing tho true composition
of the coal deposits. For that reason a
comparison between them for the purpose
of determining the relative value OF the
Goals dramatically unfair:

electric conveyors which will carry the
coal from hopper bottom cars on West
ern avenue. The coal will be emptied
from the conyeyors automatically into
the bins whence It will go through shoots
10 the hoppers OF the automatic electric
stokers.
The use of the automatic stokers will
serve double purpose. 1t will material
iy reduce the smoke from the stacks and
will save labor. All OF the coal for the
station VIII be delivered at the Western
avenue front OF the building.
To Pump Water From Bsy.
Two eonduits each seven by three feet
IN inside measurement, have already been
constructed, extending from the building
into the bay. Through these condui,s
water for condensation purposes will be
pumped from the bay by means of a
powerful electrical pump. II will be
thrown on the steam condensers. keeping
them at the right temperature TO enable
the steam after 1t leaves the engines 10
be converted again into water and
pumped back into the boilers. The old
fashioned way is TO have the steam ex-
haust through pipe running through the
roof or side of the building.
In the construction OF these condutts. IL
was necessary for the company to build
a conerdam Of sheet piling thirty feet in
length so as to prevent the water from
the bay from cutting under the bottom
of the piiing. The bottom OF each pile in
the cofferdam is forty feet below high
tide
The two conduits themselves are locat-
ed twenty-five feet below the lire of high
tide ana extending into the deep water
of the bay, making certain the plentiful
supply at all stages Of the tide.
The plans we're drawn SO that an extra
story or two could be erected and the
capacity of the plant doubled by the addi-
ton OF more boilers and engines 1t was
also provided In the general arrangements
that the building can at any time be ex-
tended TO Yesier way over the ground
now occupied by the old power station.
The plant. as stated, viii be operated
In connection with the Snoqualmie Falls
Power Company's plant. which has a con-
tract Tor furnishing the Seattle Electric
Company with electric power In large
quantities. In case OF a break down In
the machinery or wires OF the Snooua,-
