DISCUSS TURNING COAL
INTO ELECTRICITY, GAS
INSTEAD OF SHIPPING
tBy Associated Press)

COLUMBUS, o., Sept. 19.-With the
idea that it is more efficient and
economical to transport electricity
through wires and artificial gas
through pipes than it is TO haul a
great bulk of coal over railroads,
group of men with headquarters in
Columbus, is working on a project to
transform the coal from their mines
into these more concentrated forms OF
energy before transporting it to con-
sumers. Construction of a plant in
Tuscarawas county to turn coal as it
comes from the ground into electric
ity and artificial gas, already has been
started. they announce.
Lump coal as it is taken from the
mines is to be ground and pulverized
in one portion of the plant and used
as fuel in this form by means Of
blower device which sprays the pow
der into fire box where it would
burn in manner similar to gas.
This, it is said. would make the coal
s5 percent combustible and would
give a much more intense heat than
if the coal were burned in lump form.
! Claim Economy.
Electricity could be generated and
artificial gas manufactured, the men
say, much more economically under
their plan than it could at other
points after the coal had been trans
ported 1t also would eliminate, they
say, many of the difficulties of trans
portation which are encountered now.
Neither the gas nor the electricity
would be sold directly to the consum-
er, It is said, it being the intention to
market it to electric and gas compan-
les now in existence, who would in
turn. transport it through their wires
and pipe lines to those who now OBJ
tain their supplies from them.
Through the process which is to be
used in the proposed gas plant, it is
said it would be possible to manu-
facture artificial fuel which would be
of such content as to allow its mix
ture with natural gas now handled by
the gas distributing companies, the
supply of which has been reported on
the wane for several years. This, it
is said, would not only result in
economy, but would alleviate at least
10 some extent the shortage of gas
for fuel purposes which has existed
in Ohio and neighboring states.
