About half Of these went 20 the New
England States, delivering coal all along
the coast between Providence and Port
land. Me
The coal shipped by the Chesapeake
and Ohio Railway Is mined at the New
River coal fields OF West Virginia, which
are operated solely BY private corpora
tions. the railroad not being interested IN
the ownership OF the mines. The coal
mined in these fields is recognized as the
best steam coal on the market
The coal business generally has deyel-
oped so rapidly In recent years that it is
looked upon By the railroad people as the
greatest source Of revenue they have. II
Is our aim 10 make this port the greatest
handler OF bituminOUs coal on the At
lantic seaboard OF in the world. This can
hardly happen In our generation, as the
port OF Cardiff, Wales, alone ships about
100000 tons a year. There are az that
port over twenty coal piers Of different
sizes and It IS England's greatest port
The next IN rank is the port OF Barry,
which also ships about double the amount
We do here. A curious feature about
these ports IS that while we have done
away with the small coal cars. they still
continue 10 use them.
The American feet Of battle ships which
attracted the attention OF the world by
it's unparalleled cruise around our south
ern continent 20 the Pacific Coast was
able 20 perform that feat because thou
sands of tons Of New Rivers high-grade
coal had been handled through this port
and loaded into United States Golfers
that went from Newport News ahead OF
the feet TO discharge their cargoes at the
various coaIing stations along the path
mapped out for the battle ships TO fol-
low, end when the feet was directed 20
extend its trip around the world we con
tinued 20 send coal 10 the COaling sta
lions at which II would stop to repIenish
the bunkers.
This IS not only looked upon as a valu-
able and important Increase in our busi-
ness, but we have hopes that Il viii be
the means Of our securing a permanent
trade in a field we have but recently en-
tered. E I. FORD.
