GREATEST COKE FIELD.

least rs per cent. In other words,
it requires about 40 cents ton to
make coke in the beehive oven, the
Mitchell processes will, he says,
turn it out for 10 cents or less.
This refers to the actual cost of
making coke, from the time the coal
leaves the bin to the delivery of
the coke in the cars.
The Mitchell processes are an
adaptation of machinery to the
making of coke. The Mitchell oven,
as the fundamental factor, makes
poss'biv TIE utilization of machinery
in a way the beehive oven never
could. In the beehive oven only
manual labor can be employed, and
the work is of the most man-killing
kind. Drawing coke oven by hand
is probably the most distressful and
destroying work that a human be-
ing can engage in. By the Mitchell
process the modern development of
the electrical trolley and the cleo
trio motor is fully utilized. The
Mitchell oven is of rectangular
shape, with doors at either end to
permit the use of the ram or I'M
loader, and having dome so form
ed and shaped as to protect the heat
in such a manner as to coke the
entire charge of coal uniformly
throughout. 1t is entirely different
in construction and theory from the
Belgian oven, which makes use of
separate flues, through the sides of
which the heat of the waste gases
penetrates the coal in process of
coking. The Mitchell oven is much
more simple, and 1t has been dem
onstrated by practice that it is
equally efficient. That is to say,
as high proportion of coke is Sc
cured from a ton of coal as in the
best Belgian practice, while the
cost of installation of the Mitchell
oven is but a fraction of that of
the complicated Belgian oven.
With the machines invented and
patented by Mr. Mitchell it is pos
sible to draw a Mitchell oven prac-
tically instanter, resulting in a saw
ing of from three to six hours in
drawing and recharging an oven.
The ovens are charged by electric
ally-driven larries, is in the ordinary
type of oven, and the coke is lev
eled by mechanical leveler. When
the coke is ready to be drawn a
mechanical sprinkler cools the coke
in the ovens in three or four min
utes, and a mechanical drawer, or
ram operating in a telescope man
ner, shifts the charge of coke into
conveyor or loader, which screens
and delivers the coke to the car,
and the whole process requires only
a few minutes time, and the coke is
delivered in excellent and unbroken
condition into the cars. In actual
practice a charge of coke is I'M
loaded and the ovens recharged in
five minutes or less, to the great
advantage of retaining the heat in
the oven which otherwise, by the
old processes, Is cooled to such an
extent that it takes something like
six hours for the new charge to
ignite. With the Mitchell process
the heat of the oven is practically
retained intact, and the new charge
of coke ignites almost Immediately
on the closing of the oven doors.
The Mitchell oven, which is COW
cred by patents, is of larger capac,
ity than the ordinary beehive, it:
output being about five and a hall
tons per oven, while that of the
beehive is usually about four tons

Not only Is the Mltcnell oven OF
great advantage in the saving oil
time in drawing and reloading. but
by it the percentage of coke Sc
cured is very high. In the ordinary
beehive oven &C per cent. is re-
garded as very satisfactory, and In
the by-product processes ~ per
cent In the Mitchell oven 1t runs
from 6S.26 to 73 per cent, an in
crease over the fixed carbon in the
coal, the result being secured
through the carbon in the volatile
matter being deposited in the coke
and uniting with the fixed carbon
of the coal.
The first Mitchell ovens were
built about three years ago in the
Connellsville district. At the pres
ent time there are about 1900
Mitchell ovens built and being built
in the Connellsville field, and al
most no other type is to be found
among the new construction.
Mr.. M!tchlle is thoroughly famil-
lar with the Elkhorn field, having
made an investigation and analyses
as long ago as 1898, when the Mer-
ritts of the Lake Superior region
had arranged to go into the Elk
horn field and would have done so
had not their fortune been swept
away by the panic of 1898. He has
never wavered in his faith in the
district, and when the chance was
for the second time opened up to
him recently he very readily took
advantage of the opportunity to
round out his career as coke
master by opening up what he con-
siders to be the most important
new coking coal field in the United
States today.
In the preliminary organization of
the Mitchell Coke Co. several of
the present operations on the Mar
rowbone have been taken over
They have been operating some time
and have been marketing their coal
all over the West AS the coal has
been demonstrated to be too valu-
able for any other purpose than
coke, it is proposed to make coke
exclusively, as is done in tho Con-
nellsville district, no coal being
marketed there for fuel purposes,
With the great strength and pur-
ity of the Elkhorn coke there will
be the additional advantage of I'M
exCelled cheapness in manufacture,
and in cheapening the cost of steel
production the new development will
be an economic advantage OF the
first importance.
1t Is announced that the Chesa-
peake & Ohio Railway management
is thoroughly alive to the possibili-
ties which this development presents
in the way of largely increased traf-
fic for their line, and have been
watching with keen interest the
progress of negotiations for some
time past. The Connellsville field
is now giving the railroads serving
1t a coke tonnage alone OF 10000
600 tons a year. In addition to
the Big Sandy branch of the Chesa-
peake & Ohio Railway, which was
extended to Elkhorn some years ago
at an expense of $4,000,0 200, 1t is
understood that as the ElkhoTn
coke industry is developed to a
point where additional Transports
ton facilities are desirable the
Chesapeake & Ohio will construct
branch lines. 1t is even stated the
road might extend its Piney Creek
branch into the Marrowbone coun-
try, which would give a direct east
ern outlet to the coke from the
Elkhorn region.
The Mitchell Coke Co. will be
given the benefit of the open pub
