EXTRACTING GAS
FROM FINEST CULM
Some of the Possibilities of J. Gardner
Sanderson's Invention.
THE PLANT FO EXPERIMENTING.
It Is Located Seat the Columbus Col
lierr on North Washington Avenue
An Application Is to lie MhiIo tor a
Charier for the Anthracite Oat Pro
ducer ConipiinyThoso Who Are
Interested in It.
If one should tell a mechanical engi
neer that gas for power and heating1
purposes could be produced ut a cost
so small as to be Insignificant the en
gineer would doubtless receive the as
sertion with Incredulity, nnd. If It was
asserted that the cost was hardly
worth computing, your engineer woulJ
say the Informant didn't know what
he was talking about. It is a tact,
nevertheless, that gas for power and
heating purposes can be made for al
most nothing from the anthracite culm
which abounds In this region and It la
a comforting truth that a Scranton
men originated lh. scheme nnd that It
liir'.s fair to attract considerable atten
tion i'riiin manufacturers, capitalists
and others who give thoughts to such
things.
J. Ourdner Sanderson, son of th? late
George Sanderson, and "brother of the
present George Sanderson, president ot
the select council, is the man who, with
a few business spirits and capitalists
of note, possesses the patent. As Ions'
as five years ago he conceived the Idea
and three years ago he began working
and studying to devise the mechanical
contrivance which Is destined so men
Informed In that line say to reduce
the cost of power and heating almost
to zero. Mr. Sanderson's study of the
subject was not primarily suggested by
the thought of financial gain, but the
possibilities developed sucn a wide
prospective field that a large remunera
tion for his foresight came Into view
and now there are others assocluted
with him.
Today there will appear logul an
nouncements of the forthcoming appli
cation for a charter for the "Anthra
cite lias Producer Company." Tin
board of directors will be: Dr. J. M.
Kice. president: William T. Smith,
treasurer; J. Gardner Sanderson. 4he
fhventor. secretary, and E. B. Sturges.
The plans for introducing the produc
ers have not been fullv decided upon.
It is likely, however, that the rights to
manufacture will be sold and that but
comparatively few producers will be
made In this city. It Is probable that
plants will soon be established here for
piping the gas short distances, the ex
act number of miles depending on
franchises and the high or low cost of
freightage on culm,
EXPERIMENTING PLANT.
Near the Columbus colliery, on North
Washington avenue. Is the experi
menting plant which has developed
things beyond what the mechanics call
the "experiment" stage. There is lo
cated the contrivances of Iron and the
line which illustrate and prove the In
ventor's Idea. It Is simple even to the
ordinary ' mind. There is a furnace
like arrangement, to produce the gas,
a holder to receive and store it; boilers,
beneath which It is burned to pro
duce st?am: stoves on which It makes
cooking an easy thing, and jets out of
which Its light Is shed. What the pos
sibilities are for the Invention are va
rious, but it Is not visionary to Im
agine that a few generating plants
could furnish sullicient gas to run the
engines of all the power plants In the
city and at a small cost to each. Even
tually the gas producers will be manu
factured and sold, and It is not im
probable that the gas will be piped
to large manufacturing centers.
The producer, or furnace. In which
the gas is generated is simple; it can
be understood by others than mechan
ics. There are several systems wnere
by coal may be utilized, but It remained
fur a Scrantonlan to perfect the appli
ance permitting the use ot culm. His
producer Is constructed on the princi
ple of a self-feeding stove. It con
tains a cone-shaped grate which sup
ports a mass of fuel several feet thick.
The culm is fed through a honper
which extends to the mass of turning
material and feeds It automatically.
The burning culm never extends to the
surface, as. In that case the gas gen
erated would be ignited and consumed
by the living coals.
STEAM AND AIR USED.
A Jet of steam and air, the one for
decomposition and the other for com
bustion. Is forced into the fire-bed by
a specially made McClave blower. The
pressure is heavy and the distribution
equal In and through the culm which
lies three and four feet In depth on the
cone grate. The steam and air does
not create miniature volcanoes from
1 the surface; that would create a union
of the gas and name. Frequent shak
ings of the grate cause the line ashes
to fall from all points along the base
of the grate. From the top of the
producer the cas in conducted by a
large pipe through a filter of water,
which cleanses and purifies It, Into n
"holder." A "holder" Is the technical
name for a tank, the same as is used
for storing gas at gas works.
From the holder the gas is piped be
neath almost any kind of boilers where
it is ignited, and in its burning creates
steam. It may. howevtr, be piped into
any of the many styles of gas engines
and there furnish a direct power. All
these engines differ but slightly in their
constructive principles, the pus In the
cylinders being ignited and driving Urn
pistons by a series of Intermittent co
plosions. The latter Is the main idea
cherished by those Interested In Mr.
Gardner's putent, though the gas muy
be used for heating, cooking and light
ing purposes. In the latter ease It may
be used in its crude form In Jets of the
Welsbach type and In the ordinary Jet
If enriched with petroleum and the
other compounds generally used in il
luminating gas plants.
POSSIBILITIES LIMITLESS.
But the uses to which the gas may
be put Is a matter for the consumer;
the Gardner patents produce the gas
from culm, and the methods of con
sumption are limitless according only
to the plants aud facilities of the con
Burners. One ton of culm which costs ull the
way from nothing to not over 25 cents,
will produce 140,000 cubic feet of gas, or
power enough to run a 160-horse power
engine 24 hours. So the coBt really in
volves only the labor of tending the
producer and the cost of the two. Two
thousandths of a cent per cubic foot
for gas is an outlay thut would hardly
be worth considering in connection
with almost any kind of a producing
plant.
THE BRAND OF CAIN.
Good Melodrama Holds the Boards
at Davis Theater.
"The Brand of Cain," a strong scenic
melodrama, will be given this afternoon
at Davis' theater for the benefit of the
poor of Scranton through the Board of
Associated Charities. The play was
given yesterday afternoon and even
ing before large and enthusiastic au
diences. "The Brand of Cain" Is really good.
It tells a story of twin brothers who
both, love the same woman, a Phyllis
Lelghton, and when one brother wins
the woman's hand a bitter feud follows.
The exciting events center In a mur
der, or attempted murder, In a diamond
chasm In Spain.
The scenery required to Illustrate this
chasm Is very fine and In tho third aot
a realistic explosion shatters an en
gine house and hurls the boards about
the, stone quarry. The villain is killed
by his own treacherjr. Among; the
clever people In the cast are Paul
Scott. Miss Alice Snyder, Willis U.
Marble Ind James A. Hester In the or
der named. The show this afternoon
will begin at 2.30 o'clock. It will be re
peated tonight and tomorrow afternoon
and night.
RELATING TO ELECTION OFFICERST
Petitions for Appointment Must Be
Made Jiot Later Thau Friday.
Judge Archbald said yesterday that
It will be necessary for petitions relat
ing to the appointment of election of
ficers, judges and Inspectors, to be pre
sented to court on or before next Fri
day. Where the vacancy to be filled is the
result of resignation, it will be neces
sary to present with the petition the
written resignation of the person,
signed by-himself.
ARGUMENT COURT BEGINS
Judges Archbald, Gunster and Edwards
Listen to the Statements of Attor
neys in Various Cases.
A week of argument court for the
September term began yesterday morn-
I Ing in the federal building. Judges
I Archbald, Gunster and Edwards are
! on the bench. Cases In common pleas
I court will be argued until Friday. On
' WHiliiv thnoo In nuartui bocuIiiiiu orwl
orphans court will come up for a hear
ing. The cases continued until next argu
ment court are: John W. Raub vs. W.
A. Pearson: the Scranton Gas and
Water company vs. the Northern Coal
and Iron company; W. U Jones vs. L.
M. Jones, divorce; N. B. Levy & Bro.
vs. Henry Bonn & Son; M. J. Gllbrlde
and Kate Gllbrlde vs. Lazarus Moyer;
Berlin Iron Bridge company vs. J. .
Bonta; Davison & Cohen vs. Elastic
Chair company; T. B. Jackson vs.
George S. Brock.
The cases settled were: Thomas
Jordan vs. Anna McHale; William J.
Ehrhardt and others vs. Annie A.
Slack; the Casey & Kelley Brewing
company vs. John Panko. The rule
was made absolute In the case ot Will
iam Campbell & Co. vs. Fred Reynolds.
The first case argued was on the rule
to strike off judgment In the matter of
grading Svivtlnnd street. City Solici
tor J. H. Torrey appeared for the city
aud I. II. Burns nnd D. B. Replogle
were attorneys against the rule. Mr.
Torrey argued that the reKirt of view
ers should be set aside because the re
port did not state by whom the dam
ugfS should be puld.
The case of the township of Lacka
wanna against the Delaware, Lacka
wanna and Western Railroad company
was argued. Major Everett Warren
appeared for the defendant and Attor
ney C. Comegys for the township. This
was for the appointment of a master
to determine the indebtedness of Lack
awanna township at the time Belle
vue Heights was annexed to the city
and what portion of that indebtedness
the annexed district should pay.
The divorce cases of Fecnle vs. Fee
nie. Horn vs. Horn, Bowie vs. Bowie,
Cobley vs. Cobloy. were called and the
papers were handed to the court. In
the Horn divorce proceeding the argu
ment was on a rule for alimony. Attor
ney Joseph O'Brien appeared for Mrs.
Horn and Attorney George S. Horn
r presented Captain Horn. She wants
the court to allow her alimony and
counsel fees pending the divorce pro
ceedings and depositions tvere taken
to show that the captain's Income from
rents and pension is about $2,000 a year.
Mr. Horn argued that she has prop
erty valued at $3,000 in Wilkes-Barre
and Is not entitled to the relief prayed
for.
The last case on the list was In the
rule for a new trial In the suit of Thom
as Curran against William Schubmehl.
This was a quo warranto proceeding
which came up at the last term of
common pleas to set aside the' election
of Mr. Schubmehl as secretary of tho
Olyphant council. Judge Archbald at
the time directed a verdict for the de
fendant. Attorney I. H. Burns argued
yesterday for a new trial and Major
Everett Warren opposed it.
AMUSEMENTS.
One of the most successful comedies
written by William Gillette Is "Too
Much Johnson," which will be pro
duced at the Academy of Music this
evening. In "Too Much Johnson," the
hero Is a Wall street broker, who
though a married man, Is lured into
a Hirtation with a pretty French wo
man, also married. This broker fools
his wife by making her believe that
when he is away from home he is
making a trip to Cuba, where he has
Just purchased a sugar plantation.
The grotesquely humorous complica
tions of the play are worked out by
the author's deft hand In a remark
able way. The piece will be presented
by an excellent company, under the
management of Charles Frohman.
"Miss Philadelphia" Is the pertest
nnd most up-to-date lady that ever
came to the Quaker City. She knows
everything worth knowing and the best
thing she knows is William Penn, sr"..
whose statue adorns city hull, In the
town that he founded In 1(182. The
story of "Miss Philadelphia" concerts
the elder William Penn, who, after 200
years quietly lying In his grave, con
ceives the idea of coming back to earth
to see what changes have been made
in the city by the Schuylkill, lnter
Hpersed through the play are songs
und dances of an unusually clever
character, William Collier enacting
William Penn, jr., Joseph Coyne plny
ing'tlie part of William Penn, sr.. Miss
Inez Mecusker, a lady of unusual nat
ural advantages, plays Ruth Spiin
garden, William Penn, Jr.'s, flnancee,
and Louis Allen also has a congenial
role. The scenery is of a massive char
acter and cost to build $30,000. Tho
costumes, of which there are upward
of 700, are marvels of color symphony.
One costume, that of a New Year
shooter in the second net, needing fifty
paws to hold it and costing $3,000 to
produce. This big production which
promises to eclipse anything of the
kind ever seen in Scranton. will be
presented at the Academy in Its en
tirety on Wednesday nnd Thursday
evening.
The great Gllmore's band, directed
by Victor Herbert, who was given the
soubriquet, "The Irish Wagner." by
the JJew York Press, comes to Scran
ton next Friday evening and will ap
pear in grand concert at the Froth
Ingham, and we may make up our
minds to hear something extraordin
ary. All accounts ag'ee that the new
(riltiurre bund is a wonderful organi
zation. No such demonstrations were
ever seen In St. Louis and Pittsburg
as were lately made at the Ullmore
concerts during the expositions In both
cities. It is earnestly declared that no
such organization ever before existed
In this country. Not even the old Gil
mure band at Its best. Victor Herbert
will give a brilliant programme with
soloists, and a famous lady singer.
Miss Marie Donavln, who has hosts
of friends In Scranton. The sale of
seats opens tomorrow morning.
The Noss Jollities In "The Kodak"
will be the attraction at the Academy
of Music Friday and Saturday and
Suturday matinee, Oct. 30 and 31, and
if they do not play to crowded houses
It will not be the fuult of the com
pany, for If there ever was a delight
ful mixture of fun, good music and
dancing, it is presented by this com
pany. All three of the acts are crowd
ed with specalitles, so many In faot
that space forbids a detailed mention
of them. Every member of the com
pany in addition to bcln comedians
.of merit, play on a variety of musical
Instruments, and the music loving por
tion of the audience will have all the
melody tbey could ask for.
MUCH TALK ABOUT
NEW BUILDINGS
John Gibboos Urges Need of Better Ac
commodations in Twentieth Ward.
NO. SCHOOL IS TO BE REPLACED
Architect Duckworth Directed to
Prepare Plan for a New Eight
Koom Uuildino the Cost of Which
Is Not to Exceed lO.OOO-. Schedule
ol Salaries of Night School Teachers
Is Agreed I'pon.
The matter of erecting new school
buildings imparted a good deal of in
terest to lust night's meeting of the
board ot control, and caused a num
ber of speeches to be made. The dis
cussion Btarted after C. S. Jacobs,
chairman of the building' committee,
presented the following report:
The building committee recommend
that Architect John A. Duckworth be in
structed to prepare plans for a new
8-room building to take the place of No.
6, tho cost not to exceed f2,uuv per room
complete.
We further recommend that an addi
tional lot 63 1-3 feet In front adjoining
No. ti school property be purchased at a
vast of J7.OU0, M.uoo to be paid down; the
owner to retain possession until April 1,
1K97, and no Interest to be paid by the
school district on the unpaid balunct.
We also recommend that Architects T.
I. Lacey & Son be employed to prepare
plans and specifications for a 4-room addi
tion to No. 2t.
That the proposition of the Smead-Wllls
Co. to substitute gasoline engine for gua
engine at No. 13 for the sum of $367.30 be
accepted and the building committee be
instructed to huve the work done as soon
us possible.
We recommend that an additional lot
adjoining No. 23 school property be pur
chased of Martin Lot'lus and Mill Boyd
tor the sum of $800; lot being 4tixl3t.
NEEDS OF THE TWENTIETH.
John Gibbons gained the recognition
of the chair and dwelt upon the need
of a new school building In the Twen
tieth ward, where the children are
taught In basements rented by the
board. He said he had explained the
pressing need of a building in his ward
to tho members of the building com
mittee, but had learned from the chair
man of that body that It would not
lit this time recommend the erection of
a building there. He therefore moved
to refer the report back to the build
ing committee with instructions to re
port ot the next meeting, the mem
berb of the board In the meantime to
visit the schools in a body and ascer
tain where there is the most pressing
need for the erection of new buildings.
Mr. Gibbons' motion was not approved
but one made by Mr. Jennings was,
which provided for the reading of the
report in its entirety, and then Its con
sideration by sections.
When the first section relating to the
preparation of plans for new No. 6
was read Mr. Wormser, In whose ward
the proposed building will be erected,
explained its necessity. The building
now in use was erected forty year3
ago, and has long since outlived its
usefulness. The board recognized t!ir
necessity of replacing It for it passed
a resolution setting forth that the next
building to be erected should be new
No. 6.
An opinion from ex-Judge H. A.
Knapp was then read with reference
to two lots with a frontage of 53 1-3
feet on Hickory street, which the
building committee considered It de
sirable to buy to get ground enough
for the new building. The lots are
owned by Michael McNally and Mrs.
Catherine Lockery. The solicitor was
of the opinion that $7,000 was a trllle
high for the lots, but did not think
the board would make much by going
Into court. The lots are Improved by
three frame buildings.
WILL ERECT NEW NO. 6.
After some general discussion the
sections of the report referring to the
purchuse of land and preparation of
plans was approved and the rest of
the report was afterwards adopted sec
tion by section.
Later on Mr. Conrad, of the Eleventh
ward, started the building discussion
anew by calling attention to the neces
sity of replacing No. 3 school on River
street, and requesting the board to
take steps to buy three lots for the
purpose of erecting a new structure.
Mr. Wormser moved that the matter
be referred to the building committee,
and Mr. Welsh amended the motion to
the effect that No. 3 be the next build
ing after No. C erected by the board.
This brought Mr. Gibbons to the floor
again. He was mindful of the neces
sity that exists In the Eleventh ward
for the erection of a new building, but
he aiso knew the urgent demands of
his own ward, and he thousht that
both buildings should be erected, even
IMP HUM

RIEXFORD'S,
if the district has to be bonded to do
so. The board own, two lots In the
Twentieth ward, and should erect a
building upon them. He moved to lay
Mr. Walsh's motion In the table, but
the proposition was defeated by a vote
of 4 to 15. The original motion and
Its amendment were then adopted. Mr.
Gibbons refraining from voting.
OPENING NIGHT SCHOOLS.
The following report was presented
by Chairman Barker, of the teachers'
committee, and was unanimously
adopted:
The teachers committee recommend
that night schools be opened whenever the
parents of twenty pupils make applica
tion to the controller of the ward in
which the school Is located, the applica
tions to be forwarded by the controller to
the superintendent, who will proceed to
open the school upon the appointment by
the beard of the necessary teachers.
We recommend the following schedule
of salaries for night school teachers:
Principals who have had three years'
experience teaching night school to be
paid $35 per month.
Principals who have had five years' ex
perience teaching day schools, $32 per
month.
Assistants with three years' experience
In night schools, $28 per month.
Assistance with five years' experience in
day schools, $2t per month.
Assistants with less experience than
above stated, to be paid $21 per month.
We recommend that Miss Kate Mc
Groarty be permanently appointed to No.
37.
The board will meet next Monday
night to appoint night school teachers.
