STATE UTILIZING
COAL PRODUCTS
Chief Roderick Discusses Situa
tion in Regard to Dyes and
Foreign Trade
Pennsylvania's efforts to utilize the
! byproducts of coke making in the
| making of dyes and other stuffs affect
ed by the war have not been very en
couraging, but there is a fine Held if
the manufacturers will only have the
patience to perfect the processes de
clared James E. Roderick, State chief
of mines, in a report to the Governor
1 coveriny the coal industry of the State.
I This report, which is supplemental to
his summary of production and gen
eral conditions, refers at length to the
efforts to make up for the shortage of
| German dyes in this country and also
i discusses the foreign coal trade, on
I which he expresses some decided opin
ions.
In his comments Chief Roderick
says:
"About one-third of tlie coke ton
nage of the United States is produced
Iby the byproduct ovens: the other
two-thirds, or perhaps 30,000,000 tons
are produced by the old beehive ovens
j that not only produce less coke but
waste entirely the byproducts—benzol,
gas. tar, ammonia, etc.
"The benzol products are particu
larly valuable at this time as they are
largely used in making dyes, and as
the supply of dyes from Germany has
i been cut off by reason of the war, these
products have acquired almost ficti
tious values. In response to the ur
gent demand for them, there has
come Into existence a number of ineffi
cient plants, which in spite of their in
efficiency, are making a great deal of
money in producing benzol; and at
some of the byproduct plants the coke
is being stocked, the byproducts only
being utilized. «
"The conditions that existed shortly
after the war began gave rise to the
belief that the United States was about
to launch largely into the manufac
ture of dyestuffs, owing to the tremen
dous field opened up for such articles.
It seems like an easy thing for the
wide-awake American 1o grasp this
unexpected opportunity. It means
much money and at first blush seemed
very plausible. The results thus far,
however, have not been very encour
aging. and while the ability to produce
byproducts, including the numerous
and very desirable dyes now made In
Germany, would help to relieve tlie
coal and coke situation, success in this
direction cannot lie expected for many
years. It is practically a new field of
endeavor for the American and one
that requires patience, ability and
long years of effort to bring satisfac
tory results.
"At tlie beginning of the year lively
j hopes were entertained for an increase
in the export trade of coal, but the
year closed with less volume of export
i business than the preceding year. An
encouraging phase, however, was the
(beginning of a certain trade with the
competitive markets of the world that
j may develop in future to large dimen
sions. In some respects the progress
| towards the conquest of foreign trade
was remarkable. Several of the great
jcoal companies have established for
eign sales offices and agents, and are
'acquiring ships to carry their coal.
Some ol them already have docks,
practically all of the companies have
been obtaining credit information and
in other ways preparing to enter upon
' foreign trade.
"Many of those who hope for mar
ket for Pennsylvania coals other than
the home market, realize that there
are, two ways of disposing of their
product. One is to ship the coal as
raw material. The other is to use it in
manufacturing articles that, can be
sold abroad. Of the two ways, the
latter is deemed by some authorities
to be the wisest to follow for the rea
son that having united with the cost
! of labor the cost of coal in the produc
tion of certain articles, there will be
\ a greater effort to sell them. More
than this, the matter of transportation
is a very serious one, as the ship space
jis extremely valuable, and the same
amount of space allotted to the tin
jislied product would bring much
I greater returns than if allotted to the
I low priced raw material. Every
j thought on this question leads to the
conclusion that it is to the interest of
Pennsylvania to export coal in the
form of manufactured products rather
than as a raw material. Owing to our
tremendous production, however, the
necessity constantly exists for dispos
ing of the coal in the quickest possible
way and for that reason the operators
are inclined to resort to coal ship
ments rather than wait for a profit to
come from the sale of manufactured
articles."

British Fleet of 53
Warships Seen in North Sea
| Boston, May 13.—A British fleet of
I S3 warships, ranging from submarines
to snperdreadnaiiglits. were observed in
the North Sea by the Norwegian steam
er Kiljestad, according to statements by
her officers on her arrival here from
Copenhagen to-day.
Their anxiety to get past the fight
ing ships, they said, prevented any
close study of the fleet, which cruised
about during two days while the Sil
jestad was in North Sea waters. The
steamer's officers said it probably was
the British grand fleet on patrol.
