SHOWS PROGRESS.

According to the government report
recently issued during the last fifteen
years considerable progress has been
made in the United States in the man
ufacture OF coke in retort ovens, with
the recovery of the by-prOducts- but
the future development of this branch
of the industry depends largely on the
ability of the operators to dispose of
the by-DroductS at remuneratiVe prices
They come directly into competition
with the products of gas-house retorts
and the situation thus created has de-
veloped demand for information in
respect to the total quantities pro-
duced and the values. The quantity
Of coke produced at gas Works and by
product coke ovens in 1908 was 6,25S,-
125 short tons. a marked decrease from
the figures of 1907 (S,093.144 tons),
the business depression causing
heavy falling off in the demand. The
value dropped from SoV.5ozo 44 10 9-f,-
5O7.045. a reduction of nearly $4,000.

value the quantity sold being 1851,

in 1908. as compared with 54.,S19, 6S5, 600
cubic feet. valued at $50. 462 304 in
1907. Tar and ammonia decreased
slightly the figures being 01,261 1929
gallons of tar. valued at s2.537,11S in
1908 against 1OS 577.76O gallons valued
at s2651.527. in 1907: 3O,615,S25 pounds
of ammonia, valued at $2065. 169 in
1908. against 37,560,S5S pounds, valued
at $2601057, in 1907, and 44,093, 437
pounds of ammonium sulphate, valued
at 1892, S07 in 1908, against 4S,SS2,
2S1 pounds. valued at $1,525.42 in
1907 The coal carbonized in this pro-
duction amounted to 9.252,97S short
tons. against 11,490.661 short tons in
1897 The increasing popularity of gas
for cooking and heating purposes is
shown by the fact that the proportion

After these facts had been present
ed to Mr.. Britain, he proceeded to
Philomath and at the first glance OF
the lad was assured that he was look
ing at his lost son. Closer inspection
revealed the fact that he was mis-
taken for though possessing mar

soon aware that he had yet to dis
cover the kidnapped boy.
Mr.. Britain said yesterday that 1t
!WaS very easy for a stranger to be
mistaken as the likeness of the two
boys was wonderful, and continued
that of course he could not be fooled
in a matter of that sort
The attention of Mr. Shackseford
was first attracted to the young boy
in Oregon by reason of the fact that
his parents acted in seemingly Sus-
picious manner and this, taken in con-
nection with the fact that he bore
such a striking resemblance to Cecil
accounts for the strange mistake in
identity.
