LARGE YIELD OF LOCAL COAL FIELD
Tho Roynoldsvlllo ciml, celebrated
wherever It Is known for It quality nnd
quantity, will, In h short period, iinurp
' almoHt tho entlro 1)1 t urn I noun trade of
Pennsylvania. Other fluid In our
. great mineral common wraith ara lie
coming jealous of us and woll they may.
Here is a fabrication concocted lv a
Mclntyro correspondent of tho VVI1
Ilamsport Giixetttaml Hulltin,
"From a general survey of tho bitum
inous coal Hold wo find few ill rock
, whoro tho men are working any better
than at Mclntyro. Tim collieries around
tho Blossburg baln aro shut down or
' running at most about one-third time.
Tho mines up tho West Branch nnd
rittshurg way that are on full time are
so overcrowded with workmen that they
can earn but low wnires. (juitit a mini
bor of men havo left Mclntyro for Keyn
oldsvllln, but now report' bus It that
the works thero aro stnppod for a tlmo.
His probable that the extent of tho
coal Holds about Rnynnldsvllln lias been
ovorratod. One Ohio company which
Invested Inrgoly In supposed coal land
thero are ottering a high premium to
any ono who can find on their property
a paying vein."
Tho'Tuneoast," "Diamond One Coal,"
"Reynolds," and other collieries havo
been furnishing and still continue to
furnish hundreds of men with employ
ment, and the indications are that tli ;-
field will demand more miners than any
other bituminous field now known.,
Thoro has boon no works stopped, but
in truth, operations have not as yet
beon extonslvoly begun ( the work thus
far consisting In preparations. There
has been enough of our excellent coal
reached the market to test Its quality,
and for gas purposes it has boon found
to excel and precede, all other coals.
Tho extent of the ooal field here Is not
overrated but on tho oontrary Is not ex
tolled to Its truo roorlt. The Ohio com
pany referred to In tho Uuzfttr ami Jlul
lilin began their operations by adopting
scientific, methods of opening, but tho
geologist recommending this plan made
a mistake the beds of coal not lying
where thu drifts wcro made. Now that
the company are going practically to
work to discover tho beds they will,
without a doubt, bo rewarded by finding
two veins of bituminous coal that can
never find a peer. Reynoldsvllle Jrr
nm Jan. (I, 1875, W. S. Reynolds editor.
Tho prophecy above has more than
como true. At the present tlmo there
Is one company alono with a shlpp'lrg
capacity of 2.-,000 tons dally of "Royn
oldsvlllo" coal, not to mention a smnll
matter of 3,",(K)0 cars of coko ovory year.
At a rough and probably low estimate
thero has boon 1H,000,000 tons ol
"iteynoldsvllln" coal mined In tho patt
.'10 years. This would mako a string of
coal cars that would reach around the
world and leavo enough to fill up ono
line of track from tho Atlnntlo to tho
Pacific ocean.
