Large Volume as 110,000 Cubic

In T"l.iMon The Tribune's recent
article relative to J. Gardener Sander
son's patent fur producing wa from

following statements:

WHAT KIND OF GAS?
The figure 230 is probably a misprint for
20. It would be Interesting to know what
kind of iras it Is that call be obtained
from anthracite culm In such large vol
ume as IIii.iiiiO cubic feet per ton, and the
statement that 59 cubic feet of gas per
horsepower per hour is a large allowance,
might also be made more definite if the
quality of tho gas were stated. The li'iin
ber of pounds of coal to the ton Is not stat
ed but it we assume 2,210 we obtain the
following: 2.210 pounds culm furnishes
2.NIKI horsepower for one hour, which is
equivalent lo 2,210 divided by 2,8m) equals
OS pounds of culm per horseiower pel'
hour. This bents even what is claimed for
the Hates Thermic engine, described m
our Issue of (Jet. 22, and we beg to be
excused from believing It without fur
ther proof than the slateinnts of the in
ventor. In reply to the foregoing article Mr.
Sanderson a few days Inter forwarded
the following letter;
Scrantnn, Pa., Nov. W, ISPfi.
To the Editor- of Engineering News, New
York. N. V.
Gentlemen: I have received a marked
copy of your paper calling my uttentlon o
an extract from a paper recently read
by mo before the Scrunlon board of trade.
The slur you cast at "the Inventor" would
deter mn from giving the article nny at
tention were it not for the request of the
secreury of the hoard of trade by whose
solicitation the paper was piepared and
p-id. Aside from some verbal corrections
a portion of the extract should be correct
ed to read, "Hy actual measurement we
produce aid siore from 1llm cubic feet
to 120.UU0 cubic feet of gas with one ton
of line waste from the washery." The
"2.'l(i horsepower" you recognize as proba
bly a misprint for 2S0.
THE CHEMICAL ANALYSIS.
Your assertion that "It would be Inter
esting to know what kind of gas ll is that
can be obtained from ntiiai llu culm ill
such large volume as MO.Ouu cubic feet
per ton" shows great lack of knowledge
for a critic. The chemical analysis 4
made at the Inbratory of the Lackawanna
Iron and Steel company Is:

T should get about 170.000 cubic feet of
this gas from 2,000 pounds of coal. Not
withstanding many leaks, after washing
and cooling, I collect in the holder about
140,000 cubic feet. You enn verify this bv
sending an agent to investigate hut, per
haps, if you will consult authorities on
tills subject may think It tin necessary.

ing from 7,580.15 cubic feet to S.U4.0 cubic

Mr. W. J. Taylor gives about 170.000 cubic
feet per ton of coal as his experience.
Now as to the allowance of fifty cubic
feet of gus per horsepower per hour th'-re
are responsible gas engine builders who
guarantee their engines not to consume
more than seventeen cubic feet illuminat
ing gas per horsepower per hour. Ity ref
erence to a long list of tests In 'tables of
trials and tests of French and German

the consumption of gas. Including Igni
tion per brake horsepower to be from
11.20 cubic feet to 45 cubic feet in different
engines; 20 cubic feet per horsepower per
hour being a fair allowance for uveragu
illuminating gas, and eliminating the 45
per cent, nitrogen as an inert quantity
In our producer gas it would seem as If 50
cubic feet per horsepower per hour was a
liberal allowance.
CULM IS VERY PURE CARBON.
Now as to the quantity of culm con
sumed per horsepower pur hour. Culm Is
very pure carbon the finer It is the freer
of slate, and the gas we produce with it
Is higher In CO and 11 and lower In N
than that from prepared coal.

If you will compare this with the gas

I'.nd my statements so very extravagant
in the light of what has been before ac.
compllshed. In fact I expect to do consid

what has been accomplished In this line,
you may be less sarcastic In your refer-t-nco

AMUSEMENTS.
Probably no play has been received,
during the last two seasons, with such
universal commendation as the Ten
nessee comedy, "A Romance of Coon
Hollow" On itH original production in
Cliicngo the critics, while noting many
minor defects, were a unit in predict
ing its success. "A Romance of Coon
Hollow" revenls magnificent scenery
and effects, novel and unique electrical
features, and carries a troupe of Ring
ing und dancing darkeys. Two quar
tettes furnish Its musical adjuncts, hnd
a well selected dramatic company in
terprets its roles. All the scenery used
Is carried by the show, which is one
1 if the Inrgest on the road. "A Ro
mance of Coon Hollow" Is announced
for the Academy of Music Thursday,
Nov. 26. Grand fnmily mntlnee per
formance commencing at 2.30 p. m.
Evening at 8.00.
The critics of Hoyt are continually
worrying themselves and the public
by trying to find out tho secret of his
success. When theatrical business Is
bad nil over tho country Hoyt's shows
one nnd nil continuo to roll up largo
iroflts. The solution of this problem
Is that Mr. Hoyt values the dollar in
other cities Just ns highly as he does
the New York coin, and gives the same
Identical performance, the same gor
geous scenery, the fame competent
cast, and stage accessories In Scranton
as he does In Now York. That is the
reason Hoyt counts his profits! year
In ami year nut. "A Texas Steer,"
probably his best effort, at least his
most pretentious effort in the way of
comedy, will appear at the Frothlng
ham, tomorrow, Thnnksglving.
In connection wllh "Jim the Pen
man " whli li will be seen here Friday,
Nov. 17, at the Academy of Music, it
h-i. been said thnt it contains no com
edy. This is radically wrong, there Is
n vein of pure comedy all the way
through' it In tho person of Captain
Redwood, the detective, who masquer
ades ns a "heavy swell" nnd as iich
discovers the secret of Jim the Pen
man and his associates. Edward Em
ery, who will be seen here in the part,
was the tlrst to play it. He created the
part when the play had its Initial pro
duction at the Hnym.irkct Square
theater In London, under the personal
supervision nnd management of its au
thor. Sir Chnrlos Young, and played
the part during Us long run of three
years. It is In tho introduction and
trentment of this character that the
author displays his exceptional dram
title sens- in the refined comedy which
In Mr. Emery's hands is most skillful
ly expressed.
"The Fatal Card'' lo be Presented nt
tho Frothlngham next Friday anil Sat
urday evening and at a Saturdny mat
inee, for the benefit of tho West Side
Wheelmen, by the Frohman's company
has a better literary tone than the
average of somewhat similar pieces
that obtain New York popularity. It
hns a sensational scene in which nn
explosive machine is set beside a man
to blow him Into smithereens, but he
Is rescued in the nick of time; of course,
though, there Is novelty In the fact
that the rescuer Is one of the plny's
villains. The cast gives names of ac
tors cnpable of strong characteriz ition.
Special and entirely new scen-ry is
curried by the company.
"A Baggage Check" written by Chns.
Ulaney, who wrote these clever suc
cesses "A Hoy Wanted," "A ltailrnnd
Ticket" and "Run on the Hank." is to
be the attraction at the Academy of
Music next Saturday afternoon and
evening. "A Hugs age Check" is admit
ted by all critics to be the moBt clever
of all his writings. The theme is fun,
and the story, the finding of "A Bag
gage Check" which causes It. The
company includes' such first class ar
tists as Charles A. Grapewin, Thomas
Evans, Nellie Frankly n. Louis Martin
ette, Lizzie Melbrose, Charles A. Mor

FOR FAST RUNNING.
Traction Company Defendant in a
$10,000 Damage Suit Resulting from
the Death of a 4.Year-0ld Child.
Yesterday afternoon, In civil court,
wus begun tho damage suit of Allan
Lawrence, leader of 1.H wrence's band,
against the Scranton Traction com
pany. Mr. Lawrence is asking $10,000
for the death of his four-year-old son
who was killed by a Suburban car,
April 4. 1S1I5.
The boy, Merrlt Lawrence, on the
afternoon of the day in question, start
ed from his home on Adams avenue
near olive street, to go to Everett's
store to buy 11 penny's worth of candy.
He rode on the rear of a market wag
on as fur as the store and then Jumped
off and ran directly In front of u Subur
ban car, which was going in the same
direction ns the wagon, and which was
only about a rod behind It. The mo
torman saw the boy run from behind
the wagon ami dash across the tracks,
but could not stop the car in time to
prevent him from being struck.
The little fellow was instantly killed
and his body badly lacerated. The
motorman and conductor were arrest
ed at the time but were discharged
upon the order of the coroner's Jury
which ruled that "the motorman of
the car did all In his power to pre
vent the accident.
The contention of the plaint Iff is
that the company was negligent by rea
son of running its cars too fast.
Before the case went to trial At
torneys Horace E. Hand and Major
Kverett Warren argued for a contin
uance on the grounds that one of their
principal witnesses, George Thomp
son, Jr., was at West Point, and could
not be reached by a subpoena. They
also stated that they did not learn of
his absence until yesterday morning.

tiff, arpueO against the continuance,
holding that the testimony of the wit
ness in question has been taken by a
court stenosra:iher at the coroner's tn
quest and could be rend at the trial.
Judge Gunster refused to allow a con
tinuance and directed them to proceed.
Over an hour was sncnt in selecting
a jury. This is all that had been done
In the case u:i to adjournment.
The Sowka-Snyter case was not giv
en to the Jury until 3.15 o'clock p. 111.
At adjournment no verdict had been
reached. The case is for the recovery
of five feet of land. Sowka and Sny
ter bought a 140-foot lot which laid
a ten foot reservation in front of it.
When Snyter divided the lot Sowka,
who received the rear part, got only
70 feet. Ho thinks he ought to have
75 feet ns the lot H with the ten-ftstt
privilege 150 feet in length. The roughly
estimated cost of conducting civil court
Is $50 an hour. This suit occupied ubout
ten hours, which means an expense
to the county of X500. The actual value
ot the lund in dispute is $25.
Judge Gunster yesterday granted a
rule to show cause why a new trial
should not be allowed In the case of
John Kelly, administrator, against the
Metropolitan Life Insurance company,
of New York. The case was tried Mon
dny, and was won by the defendant, the
Judge ninrmltis the contention of the
defendant's counsel, Major Warren,
that t neumonla is a form of pulmon
ary disease, and consequently as the
Insured In question hnd died of pneu
monia within one year after the Is
suing of the policy, the plaintiff could
only recover one-half the amount of
the Insurance, as stipulated in the pol
icy. Hulslnnder & Vosburs nnd W. F.
Jtoyle, attorneys for Mr. Kelly, give as
their reasons for a new trial that the
court erred in holding ns a mutter of
law that "pneumonia Is a pulmonary
disease," and in not submitting this
question to a Jury; also, in refusing to
receive the evidence of Dr. Sullivan
under the offer made by the plaintiff:
also, In refusing to allow the common
and ordinary meaning and'aeceptance
of the phrase "pulmonary diseases to
be proven;" and, also. In directing the
Jury to find n verdict for the plaintiff
only for the amount for which the ver
dict was taken.
