Waste in Coke Makinu,

If the 27.70S.644 short ovens of coke manufactured in 1911 in ovens of the beehive type had been made in by product ovens the value of the by products thus recovered, which were wasted In the beehive ovens, would have been between $35,000,000 and $40,O0O, 600. This interesting statement is made by Edward W. Parker of the United States geological survey, in the advance chapter on coke from the vol ume Mineral Resources for. 1911. This estimate is based on the value of the by products resulting from the 7,A7,- 845 tons of coke made in by-product ovens in 1911. The value of these by products recovered in 1911 was equal to the value as the mines of the coal used in making the coke.
 From information received by the survey from the superintendent of mo- tive power of the Pennsylvania Rail- road company, MT. Parker estimates that the quantity of power which might be obtained from the eoking operations 1 in the Connellsville and Lower Con- nellsville districts by substituting non- recovery retort ovens for beehive ovens | and using the heat which is now vast | ed would be more than twice the Quan. tity of power necessary to move every
 train on the Pennsylvania railroad be.
 tween Pittsbtrg and Harrisburg. Int
 amount of boiler horse- e-power obtain.
 able from these coking districts is es. timated by MT. Parker at about 400, ,00t
 horsepower per hour for every houl
 in the year.

In the city budget prepared by the finance committee, approved by the court of common council and to be submitted to the citizens of New Lon don in city meeting assembled, is the item for police which has been in- creased sufficiently to permit the pay ment of an increase of five dollars a month to every member of the active force. The policemen asked for an in- crease of ten dollars a month, which was approved by the police committee but which was pared down so as to bring the total of appropriations with in the estimated receipts for the en- suing year. The increase asked for originally would pay the police just about the Fsame as is paid in Other cities of the state on a basis of population and there was justifica- tion for the request for increase. This increase applies to the captain and the lieutenant as well as to the other mem- bers of the force. X If the police or
 nance is changed 90 as to permit the appointment o1 d sergeant of police, that officer will receive five dollars month morel than the regular patrol men. f-
 It being generally understood that the police force is to have sergeant 1t is but natural that there is more or less discussion as to which officer
 is best fitted for the promotion. In this particular case the matter of seniority cannot be taken into con-
 sideration as there are otherNrequisites besides length of service, for there will
 be necessity for work of an office oI clerical nature, and. in this some of the officers may be just a trif1e de- ificient. and were there to be an ex- animation for the place this educa- tional deficiency would be brought in to prominence. While all the officers of the force would be all right as ser .geant ss far as the street work went all of them are not competent for ths inside office work, and perhaps woult be seriously embarrassed were they called upon some time in the future to be the lieutenant or captain of tht force in the line of promotion. While there are no college graduates on tht force, still there are some who art quite we'll educated and competent tt
 perform all work connected with tn,
