Arh..s.s bsusits and Aisminas.

Chas. d. Walcott, director OF the
United States geological survey. has
issued the following bulletin on alum
mum and beauxite, which will be OF
interest to Arkansans:
Aluminum-he production OF alum
mum in the United States during
1901 amounted to 1880 900 pounds, an
increase of 100000 pounds over the
year 1900. The Pittsburg Reduction
Company, operating the Hall patents,
remains still the sole producer OF
aluminium in this country. The price
OF aluminium per pound remained prac-
tically stationary throughout the year,
although the demand for the metal In
creased. The total imports OF all
forms al aluminium In 1901 were val
ued at $1o9,74s, as compared with
$50,444 in 1900.
Bauxite-Georgia produced the bulk
Of the bauxite In 1901. the remainder
being supplied by Alabama and Ark
ansas. The total production was 49,
s05 long tons, valued at S79.sl4, as
compared with 23.ls4 tons. valued at
3S9,676 in 1900. Bauxite is used
mainly for the manufacture Of alum
mum, although considerable guam
tity Is used for the manufacture Of
aluminium sulphate and crystallized
alum. The Pittsburg Reduction Com
pany is installing large plant at
Bauxite, Saline county, Arkansas,
which promises to increase largely the
output from Arkansas In 1908. The
import OF bauxite into the United
States during 1901 amounted to $67,-
III; the exports were valued at $780,
900, and the consumption seems to
have been 1855 long tons, valued at
$151,262. The imports in 1901 were
1898 long tons, as compared with
1856 tons for the preceding year an
increase due mainly to the low ocean
freight rates from foreign ports. This
low freight rate caused bauYite TO be
delivered, duty included, from the
south Of France at New York. Phil
adelphia and Baltimore at lower rate
per ton than it cost to ship 1t from
Georgia or Alabama to Philadelphia.
The principal commercial salts Of
aluminium are aluminium sulphate and
crystallixed alum, for the manufac-
ture Of which bauxite and Greenland
cryolite are used. The Pennsylvania
Salt Company possesses the exclusive
privilege Of importing cryolite into
North and South America. In 1901
the production Of aluminium sulphate
was 74,721 short tons, and that Of
crystallized alum was 1855 tons.
