✦ Synopsis

Company, Pittsburgh, Pa., then presented the paper of the evening, entitled "Characteristics of American Coals in By-products Coking Practice." The speaker called attention to the rapid replacement of the old beehive coke oven by the modern by-product oven, and some of the interesting economic developments in the coal industry which result from this change. The behavior of various American coals in the by-product oven was described in detail, and results of studies in this connection were presented. The coking property of coal and some of the important phenomena of the coking process were discussed. Attention was also given to the behavior of various typical coking coals in the by-product ovens, as well as the practical results of coking such coals, with respect to the yields of the various by-products, and the quality of the coke produced. The subject was illustrated by lantern slides and specimens.

After a brief discussion, the thanks of the meeting were extended to the speaker.
