airc, who died suddenly yesterday at
the Hotel Cumberland, had enough by
drocyanic poison in his stomach to kill
six men. Coroner Hamburger immcGi-
ate!y reported the case to the police
and detectives We're set to work upon
several mysterious circumstances con-
nected with the case. Mr.. Preston was
New York manager for the Thinker
Railroad Bearing Axle Co, and had an
Office in West 18th street. The first re-
ports of his death stated that he had
died while telephoning to some business
acquaintance in the Office of the no.
tel. There was no physician in at
tendance, but DR.. English, the house
physician of the hotel, who was called
in when Mr.. Preston succumbed, gave
the opinion that death had been caused
by a cerebral hemorrhage.
Mr.. Preston's wife told the coroner
that Mr.. Preston returned from 4 bus
mess trip from New Orleans two
weeks ago suffering from a severe at
tack Of the grip. complicated with
bronchial troubles. Against the advice
of his physician, DIR. Millett, he insisted
upon transacting business from his
sick bed by means of the telephone.
Because neither DR.. Millett nor Dr.
English could definitely state the
cause of death, Coroner Harbunger de
tcrmined to hold an autopsy. Dr.

A New FueI.

Now We have another of the Oft
repeated instances of the worthy in
ventor being cheated out of the bene-
fits Of discovery that is the crea-
ton of his brain and handiwork. The
remarkable secre for burning ashes
with coal, discovered by John Ell
more, a cobbler of Altoona, Pa, and
which has excited interest all over
the world. is out and If it be what
it is claimed another notch may be
cut in the pathway of world prog
ress.
Almost every householder in Al
toona is using this secret, it is re-
ported, with great saving in coal
bills. Several well known chemists
Immediately after it was announced
that Gilmore had solved the problem
of Obtaining heat from ashes, set
to work to try to discover the for
mula. They were successful, it is
said, and here is the formula:
Common salt, one pound.
oxalic acid, two ounces.
Water, one gallon.
Mix and moisten a mixture con-
tanning one part coal and three parts
ashes and a better fuel than pure
coal is obtained.
The ashes of anthracite coal burn
as readily as do those of bituminous.
This mixture will, upon being placed
upon burning fire, fuse into a coke
like mass and deposit but little resi-
due. The chemical action of this
compound is thus explained:
When an aqueous solution of an
alkaline salt, such as common salt,
is mixed with coal ash, the result is
that mild I've is formed, which
when mixed with any combustible
material, such as coal, and upon the
application of heat gives off oxygen
gas thus enabling rapid combustion.
The addition Of oxalic acid causes
a chemical change Of greater value
than the first, for the reason that II
results in the formation of carbide,
which in turn gives of acetylene gas,
this adding to the intensity OF the
heat and facilitating complete COM
bustion.
1t is possible upon moistening a
small quantity of ashes without the
addition of coal, to really detect the
odor Of acetylene gas, and If the
treated ashes are placed upon a
lighted fire they will fuse and burn
to a fine powder.
Gilmore, who discovered the sec
ret and focused attention upon the
possibilities that lurked in ashes,
claims that his patent will protect
him in his secret. He says he has
received an offer from the British
Government, provided he can demon
strate the practicability of his COM
pound.
1t is feared that Gilmore will not
derive any tangible benefits from his
discovery in view of the fact that
