Tlie Great Lakes Coal Co.
Work has just been started cn what
is probably the most important mining
venture undertaken in Western Penn
sylvania in years. Guffy and Queen,
the well known oil producers, asso
ciated with the old Carnegie Steel
Company Interests, have formed the
Great Lakes Coal Company, with $5,000
000 capital; have acquired 25,000 acres
of coal near Brady's Bend; have begun
the opening of ten large mines and will
open five more, giving them a daily out
put of 12,(XX) tens. It is the intention
of the company to enter aggressively in
the Great Lakes coal trade during the
coming spring, and preparations have
already been made to stock the coal this
spring and ship it at the opening of
navigation to Conneaut Harbor over the
Pittsburg, Bessemer & Lake Erie rail
road-
Over 1,000 men have been put to
work constructing 18 miles of what will
be a 50-mile line from Red Bank to New
Castle, thoroughly opening the monster
tract. It is the expectation that this
road, known as the Western Allegheny,
will become an important link in the
Pennsylvania system to relieve the
freight congestion of the Pittsburg dis
trict.
It is the execution in part of a scheme
originally ttlanned by Edgar Thompson,
when President of the Pennsylvania, to
relieve the main line. The line will give
thu big coal company not only an outlet
to the liessemer and to the Lake Erie
but will also permit its entrance into
oceofthe bnsiest industrial districts
west of the Alleghenies.
Options were taken on the coal early
last summer when a charter for the
company was procured by Knox &
Ree<l. Hint* then the details have lieen
perfected and the coal purchased out
right. The Western Allegheny, which
is entirely owned by the coal company;
was located and recently contracts were
awarded to Contractors Bennett and
Smith of Greensbnrg, Hyan & Hesset
and the Uroadhead Contracting Com
pany for the construction of the line to
connect it with the Bessemer & Lake
Erie.
The road will start from Kaylors,
near Bradys Bend, on tho Allegheny
river, and will completely divide the
big tract. From Kaylors it follows the
valley of Sugar creek to Kepples Corn
ers. piercing the hill upon leaving the
valley with a tunnel 1,000 feet long. It
crosses the Pittsburg & Western rail
road between Karris City and Millers
town and runs down Muddycreek to
the Bessemer by way of Buena Vista
and Middletown.
The line has been built at great ex
pense and with a far more important
object in view than the mere carying of
coal. No expense has been spared to
secure a low grade, and the maximum
for the first U) miles, which are rhe
roughest, is a little less than 40 feet to
the mile. At one point just west of the
Pittsburg 6c Western the new road will
cross a stream with a steel viaduct 800
feet long and 125 feet high. Surveys
have already been made for the location
of the remainder of the line to New
Castle, the grade to the west being ex
cedingjy small.
Tlie big tract contains three good
veins of coal-the Freeport vein, four
feet thick and suitable for coking; the
Upper Kittanmng six feet tiiick, and
the Lower Kittanning four feet thick,
both said to tie splendid steam coals.
All of these mines are to be worked by
drifts, and they are so located on the
hills that coal will lie mined from the
three and loaded ujion the cars from
one steel tipple.
Recently-18 cars from various points
on the tract were wagoned out to the
Edgar Thomson Steel works and the
Homestead Steel works of the Carnegie
Company, and tests for steam purposes
were said to have been beyond expecta
tions Some of the <;oal has also been
been coked, and It is the intention of the
company to erect coke ovens on the
property in the future, and ship to the
furnaces of the Shenango and Mahoning

valleys. Experts of the Consolidated
Gas company of Pittsburg have made
tests, and they declare the yeild for gas
is very large.
The organizers of the big scheme
however, regard their greatest ad- ,
vantage as tneir distance to the lake t
side, away from the congested Pittsburg
district. They say that over the ,
Bessemer they will be able to ship
much faster and with greater economy. 1
Their projected line to New Castle will ,
give them connection with almost all of ,
the important roads of Eastern Ohio, 1
including the Pittsburg & Western,
Lake Shore, Buffalo, Rochester & Pitts
burg and Erie, and into evei y import
ant mill centre. The company will
also enjoy the advantage of the im
mense fleet of iron ore steamers con
tinually making Conneaut Harbor its
unloading point, and will give it j
splendid opportunities to reach the :
markets of tne Northwest.
During the early days of the Pennsyl
vania President Edgar Thompson con
ceiyed the idea of relieving the main
line into Pittsburg by building a short ,
cut from Red Bank, on the Low Grade
division of the Allegheny Valley, to
New Castle. He de«lared that im ,
mense advantage wonld follow the con
struction of that line, principal of
which was the relief of the then con
gested Pittsburg yards. He also de- (
dared that freight could lie bandied
much more cheaply oyer the Low ,
Grade from the Philadelphia & Erie at j (
Driftwood than over the mountainous j
main line. He was supiK>rted in his |
contention by David McCargo and
later by C. B Price, but tiefore the >
scheme could be put into execution I
President Thompson died and President |
Roberts refused later to revive it. It is
now believed that the new line nnder
independent auspices will prove an im
portant factor in freight east and west
txmnd.
The stock of the new company is held
by strong people and it will begin
operations without debt of any kind,
if. T. Porter is chief engineer of the I
railroad and D. B. Blackburn will be
general manager of the coal company.

Obituary.
' The many friends in this vicinity of
George E. Weiseman will learn with
regret of his death, which occurred at
San Antonia, Texas, on October 2nd.
Mr. Weiseman was a son of the late
Chas. Weiseman, who conducted a jew
elry and watchmaking establishment
here for manv years. George learnfd
the jewelrv trade with his father here,
and some years ago he went west—to
Park City, Utah—where he started in
business for himself and in which he
was successful from the start. Failing
health necessitated a change to a more
favorable climate and he located at San
Antonio, Texas, where the end came as
above stated. Lung trouble was the
cause assigned for his death. He was
married, and leaves a wife and two chil
dren. The deceased was a half brother
of Miss Maggie Weiseman, of this place.
In East Brady where George grew to
manhood, he had many friends, among
whom he was popular and well liked.
He w as a member of the first East Brady
band, organized many years ago. Al
though he has been in failing health for
a number of years, he only became
alarmingly ill about a week before his
death. His brother John, who left for
his bedr-ide when word came of hid seri
ous illness, did not arrive until after the
end came."—East Brady Review.
