I 317 Lackawanna Ave, NORTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA UNIQUE COAL WASHURY. Srpnrntrt Urn Coal nml Alio Tills tho Almniloiicil Worfcinpn. Wllkes-Barre, Aus. 1G. Tho new washery erected at the East Boston mine of W. G. Payne & Co., In Kings ton township, near Luzerne borough, Is now In operation. It Is the llrst of Its kind on the West Hide and hundreds have visited It to sue it at work. The washery serves a double purpose, sep niatir.pc all the good coal from the large culm piles and filling the abandoned woi kings In the mine. Mr. Payne ex liecls to do away with all the culm about the i:ast Uoston and at the same time secuie thousands of tons of coal uf the smaller grades. The method by which the culm Is washed is thus described by the Times: It Is llrst Hushed Into a line of ele vators by a stream of water and Is conveyed to the head of the washery, where It Is dumped on a large plate, which Is perforated by holes one Inch by thtee-quarters of an Inch. From hero the larger sizes are pushed into s-mall chutes and the coal Is picked out. The slate passes down the chutes Into a pair of rock crushers, from which it Is washed through plpts Into the aban doned working of the mine. The coal picked from the waste by the boys Is sent through a pair of small rollers, dropped from them Into another sot of elevators, by which It is carried back again to the plates. Pass ing thiough the plates It passes Into a screen, where the pea, buckwheat and j Ice coal are separated. The coal after leaving the screen passes Into the Jigs, where It Is cleaned and prepared for market. Each size Is then carried by a separate conveying line to the coal pockets. The culm that Is being washed is conveniently located, so that but little work Is necessary to get it into the elevators. When needed a line of con veyors will be placed. The machinery for the washery was made at the Vul can Iron Works and the washery Is In charge of William Gaines, of Wilkes BarreT "T .'""" ANTHRACITE PROSPECT. The Philadelphia Ledger Continues to Note Steady Improvement. Philadelphia, Aug. 16. The Ledger says: The anthracite collieries continue working five days per week on three quarteis time and all of the newly mined coal Is being moved to market. The lecent scarcity of vessels has some what retarded the eastern shipments of coal, and the storage pockets at the Nt-w England distributing points have been pretty well depleted of stock. The Heading company Is now busily en gaged in replenishing Its stocks of coal In the east and is also distributing con siderable coal In other quarters, while all of the anthracite mining and carry ing companies are now working their collieries four to five days per week on three-quarters time and are mak ing preparations for an active fall busi ness. It Is not Improbable that there will be made an advance of 15023 cents per ton In the prices for the prepared sizes of anthracite about Sept. 1. The local line and city trade continues quiet, but it is expected that the proposed ad vance In the pi Ices for coal will stim ulate renewed buying before the end of the month. The anthracite tiade generally Is reported to be In quite a healthy condition, and tho outlook for Increased business and higher pi ices for coal at an early day is said by the well Informed to be excellent.

Says the Rec ord: The sudden death of Miss Jennie Jenkins, a well known young woman of Plymouth, at the home of Mrs. John O'Connell In Edwardsvllle on Saturday morning at 9 o'clock, under peculiar circumstances, has caused a big sensa tion on the West Side and some star tling developments are looked for when the Inquest is held.
