radial point one line reaches out to
the Marquette range, another to

The coal dock of the C. M. iV St.
I'aul railroad built here during the
past two months is one of the most
improved hoisting and loading ap
paratus on the line. Thn structure
resembles very much the pockets in
the shaft houses at the mines. The
whole structure is about .M) feet in
height over all and contains two px k-
ets, or chutes, each of these having a
capacity of NO tons of coal. These
pockets are built on either side of a
runway that contains an endless bucket
arrangement for the hoisting of the
coal out of the pit Isdow. The jxieket
stands on a concrete "ttment sur
rounding a pit dug into the earth to a
depth of about fifteen feet. The end
less chain runs from a point in alniut
the centre of this pit over roller lear- Ndelphla Times

ings. iuv Biues oi me pu taper to
wards the centre so that as the buckets
take the coal from below the remainder
of the coal in the pit slides down to
the centre. The bucket chain is pro
pelled by a large gasoline engine which
stands in a little house at the base of
the structure. One man is all the
attendance that is necessary to coal np
engines with this apparatus and he
can do it In about a tenth of the time
that two men could with the tierrick
that has lieen is use for the last decade
all over the system. The coal is hauled
in ore cars and a dozen or more cars
are left on the siding that loads to the
pocket. As a new supply is wanted
the attendant drops a car down over
the pit and unfastens the trapdoors.
Tho coal drops out into the pit Isdow.
He then goes in and starts the engine
and in alnt five minutes the whole
carload of coal is in ttoekets above.
The buckets dump themselves into a
lift I" slide that conducts the coal into
the chutes at the top. When one chute
is full th" silde is shifted so that the
coal will run into the other one. When
an eilglne comes up to lie coaled the
temlei is stopped under the apron that
' leads from the Itottom of the chute and
the coal i n laesed and runs out, into
I he bill in the tender. It lakes but a
remarkably short time to c al up an
engine by this method.
