�Rock Springs - March 27, 19250

Mr. J. Ao Smith:

I notice that a good many of our oxygen tanks
for helmets are not painted any distinctive color 80 that we
may know them from the commercial tanks of oxygen being shipped to us.

I would suggest that you arrange at all of our

camps to have some distinctive mark on the oxygen we use for
helmet worko

My remembrance is that we formerly painted a

red and white stripe around the center of the tank.

Wish you

would look into this and see what we can develop 80 that there
will be no mistake in having men use commercial oxygen for helmet work as you understwid this is different oxygen than that

�Omaha - April 15, 1925.
Mro J. A. Smith:
I have given a good deal of thought to the safety items discussed at the meeting held in the First Aid Hall, Rock s'p rings, April 8th,
and certain definite impressions linger very strongly with me, which in
substance are :
(a)

Our mine supervisory forces are still looking on
out safety campaign as a transient institution,
which, after having a brief' da.y, will be a thing
f'orgotten .

. (b)

That the daily saf'ety program is very largely, by
our superintendents and subordinate mine officials,
looked upon as consisting almost wholly of putting
in the certain specif'io improvements that are
authorized, f'orgetful of the fact that an open
door, failure to carry air to one point at the
faoe, careless handling of explosives by one man,
the improper installation and maintenance of a
piece of equipment, with failure to maintain proper
clearance at a given point, as well as many other
similar things, all of which are 95% supervision,
carry the full potential of an individual fatality
or a major accident.

As I stated to the superintendents and foremen, no expenditure
on the part of the Company, or no army of supervisory general officers, can
be made to serve as a substitute for the proper attitude of mind on the part
of the men directly in charge of operation, and that is something that we
must get, if it is necessary to relieve the men we have and get men who are
capable of developing that attitudeo
To me it seems rather tragic that such things as a defectively
hung door, which will not definitely close, should be allowed to exist in
one o:f our mines.

My understanding is that an open door is looked upon as

the most plausible cause for the Sublet accident, costing thirty-nine lives,
last year.

�- 2 -

I hope you will press each of the individual points developed
by the Joint Committee at the first examination, as well as that now under
way, to such conclusion with our mine superintendents that a condition once
found will not be found again in the same propertyo
Please see that Mro McClelland develops an equally rigit
attitude as regards ventilationo

.Am. sending copy of this letter to Mr . Prydepwith the feeling
that he will support you in the fullest way. _,

I regret the controversy

In a

case of this sort our du~J is clear 1st - Where ,ve are v,rrong the property should be put right
at once, and that without regard to expense.
2nd - Where the State Inspector is right we should support
him.

I feel that we have obtained from Mr . Dyer of' the Bureau of
Mines a very broad analysis of' our ventilation situation, which I de:t'initely
f'eel is of paramount importance, all else secondary thereto, and I am hopeful that 1.1r. Denny's reports will be equally constructive.

Smith:
I think you will agree with me that we have approached the hour
when our entir e operating staff shouid definitely realize that I am in
earnest in t he matter of safeguarding our mineso

Perhaps we might say

that they should be expect ed to go through a period of adjustment with
what seemed to t hem to be new theories of mine managementp eto.p three
years, however, in my opinion, representing sufficient t ime to accomplish
thiso

I am distinctly disappointed, hmvever, in t he factp that ai'ter
three years persis tent exploitation on my part of t he necessity for venti l ation in working places and at all faces, it sti11 seems to be neoess•
ary for Mr. McLeod to enter our mines te~ling us what we are not doing

and uhat vre shou.1d do ~ as was the case in his report of April 21st on
Superior B Mine, where he found dip panels being driven with brattice
6 to 12 inches belov, the roof and above t he floor, loose material like-

wise st revm along the haulage ,·rays o

have suspended two mine foremen for failure to enforce rul"e s -

and further deflections will undoubtedly result in dismissal; howeverp

I think our -ventilation engineer will find it necessary to exert more
agressiveness and I trust you wiil personally see that Mr. McClelland and
every man you come in contact with, understands that the suspension period
follovring three years of persuasionp will not be continued indefinitely;
on the other hand, we propose to enforce the rules, making the mines as
safe as possible if it is necessary to attain same through dismissal and
replacement.

TO TENANTS OF THE UNION PACIFIC COAL
COMP ANY BUILDINGS:
My attention has been called to the fact that casing-head gasoline
(natural gas liquified by condensation) is being used by some of our
employes occupying Company houses.
As this gasoline vaporizes at a low temperature, it is readily subject to ignition and explosion if exposed to fire or flame (including lighted smoking material) or heat generated by friction, electric sparking,

etc.
All employes are warned against storing this commodity in or about
buildings, tenements, garages, or outhouses, which are the property of
this Company. The violation of this rule, if detected, will result in the
cancellation of the rental agreement covering the property involved.

The group of L oop Type FA HRALLOY P in Bar illustrnled is

weighin g t172_pounds each, are for use Ill l11 gh tempe rature enameling
ovens, handlin g wet enameled pa rts through t he "heat zo ne" where
enamel is heat hardened.
F AHR ALLOY offers ma ny outs ta ndin g ad va ntages on wo rk of
this nature as it is entirely un affected by t emp eratures up t o and
over 2000 ° F. and do es not burn, scale, crack or sag even a fter repeated heating and cooling.
It is idcallr applied wherever heat and corrosion resistance is required in machine o: equipmen! pa rts, and is made in many different
analyses, each particularly smtable to some peculiar condition or
process.
Most analyses are machinable and all offer complete heat and corrosion resistance for the purpose intended. \\ rite for complete details
on this super-metal.

Four Years to the Day
Quoted below is a letter signed by Mr. C. C. Fisher, Plant Superintende~t, Nat!onal Ro~k Pro~ucts Company, Los Angeles, California.
It .1s particularly mterestmg to note in this letter Mr. Fisher's
remarks regarcHng the 25° cable bend ·over the AMSCO Sheave and
the fact that cablo life is throe to fiv e time.• a.• /0119 as when used
with ordinary cast iron sheaves.
The characteristic polish that AMSCO Sheaves take after u shorl
time in service and the hard, tough nature of AMSCO Manganese
Steel are the reasons for extended cable life, an argument long used
for AMSCO Manganese Steel Sheaves that has been again confirmed
by this user's experience.
•
"In answer to your letter of January 20, 1930, am very pleased to
inform you that I have u~ed one of your 24" Manganese Cubie
Sheaves in continuous service for a period of four years almost to
the day.
.
.
"This sheave curries u I" steel cable at about a 25° bend and has
delivered to our plant approximately 550,000 tons of sancl and gravel
up a 88 per cent incline.
"Cables last 8 to 5 times as long us with the ordinary cast sheave.
thus saving loss of time, labor an·d temper.
"Am highly pleased to recommend these sheaves and the usi, of
Manganese Steel in various other clrpnrtments of tht&gt; snncl nncl grnvl'I
business."

The illustration shows 212' of Manganese Steel No. 880 Chain with
F-2 Attachments every other link. A sand and gravel dredging customer of ours in Michigan, who is thoroughly pleased with AMSCO
Pumps because of their efficiency and economy, uses this chain in
their sand scraper box naturally for the two reasons of resistance to
wear and breakage, and the good workmanship in our shop. Last
November they reported that they had used AMSCO Chain all season
without the slightest trouble and considered it a commendable record
because of -p revious less favorable experienct- with other makes of
chain and ordinary metals.
Chains of almost every size and class, and sprocket and traction
wheels of sizes to match are available in AMSCO Manganese Steel,
affording users the maximum of life and freedom from trouble and
breakdown. \Vhere the service Is most severe-the loacls the heaviest
-in dirty, gritty work-where shocks, wear and abrasion quickly
destroy ordinary chain-there use AMSCO Manganese Steel Chain.
Once used, always demanded.

The, n~w A_MSCO Rivete_d Coi~ Type Chain, now made in nine sizes,
Is a dIStmct improvement m design over welded coil chain because it
h?s a 1;11aximum joint b~aring equal in diameter and length to the
d1mens1on between the side bars. Welded coil chains when new have
only poi~t c~ntact and bearing, and although this area increases with
wear, It IS still- small when the chain is finally worn and discarded.
A?tlSCO Riveted Coil Type Chain, besides having the major advantage of the large bearing surface, is easily assembled and dis-

By J on N R . LYoxs, .LJ.US CO R esearch Doparlmont
In all ca r wheel foundri es, railroad repai r shops, car building
plants or whereve r wheel mounting is clone, there is a piece of equiprncnt called a wheel p ress whi ch is des igned to dismantle wheel and
nxlc units by fo rcing th e wheel fr om the axle under a press ure of
ap proximately fifty t ons.
T his press is equipped with n. cas ting known as a resistance block
whi ch ser ves as a buffer in removin g the wheel from the axle, and its
function is to absorb t he wea r due to thi s high pressure.
Castin gs of va r io us alloys have been tried in an endeavor to get a
steel wh ich wo uld r ender a good ser vice and the best r esult that could
be atta ined was by the use of a s teel which las ted three months, at
which ti me the eas tin g had worn to such an extent that it was necessary to add ser vice plates to increase the life of the easting.
This particula r case seemed to be an ideal application for Manganese Steel because the alternate applications of pressure would peen
harden the steel and increase its wear resistance.
Two castings were made for the Ha=ond, Indiana Works of the
Southern \Vheel Company for test purposes, and while the results to
date aren't conclusive, the service nt present proves the superiority
of Manganese Steel.
To demonstrate this contrast, three pictures were taken, one showing the Manganese Steel resistance block after three months' wear
(Plate No. 3) and the other two, alloy steel resistance blocks after
they were used the same period of time (Plates No. l and No. 2)for removing lli00 to 2500 pairs of wheels per month.
The alloy steel blocks show excessive wear and the need of service
plates (Plate No. 1) and a fracture (Plate No. 2).
The Manganese Steel (Plate No. 3) shows that it has been peened
down, but now it is in ideal condition for complete wear and shock
resistance, the two qualities for which this steel is widely noted.
These castings weigh approidmately 120 pounds each and cost
about 32c per pound for tl1e alloy steel blocks and about 13c per
pound for Manganese Steel, a saving in itself that is distinctly worthwhile.

Pictured above is part of a shipment of Draw Bench Chains and
Sprocket Wheels made for a well known engineering company, manufacturing draw bench equipment.

This shipment of AMSCO Manganese Steel Parts consisted of 416
-8½" pitch, side bars and 208---4"%" pitch, center links, and 2--5
tooth drive sprocket wheels, 1-8%" machine bore and the other,
8 11/16" machine bore, both having ground keyways and machined
hub ends.
The experience of users of this type of ·e quipment bas proved the _merit of AMSCO Manganese Steel for this work, it being n well
established fact that Manganese Steel when of the proper analysis
and heat-treatment, has an austenitic structure that gives great
toughness, ductility and shock resistance. A peculiar property of the
metal is that it work hardens very rapidly and it is probably due to
this characteristic that Manganese Steel is so sen·iceable under severe
wear and impact.

Draw Bench Chains and Sprocket

Mang2tllese Steel Resistance Blocks
I

In one sense the yield point is rather low. However, as the ste~l
starts to stretch, it immediately stiffens up very radically and this
increase in yield point is progressive almost to the ultimate strength.
This ability of AMSCO Manganese Steel to build up a new, high
yield point is the prime reason for its resistance to extreme shock as
such shock stresses result in a higher resistance against further
stresses of like degree.
•
This building up of strength and ha:dness .is a very rapid I?rocess
and very soon uFter the chain has been m service, maximum res1stnnce
to breaknge stresses and to abrasion is reached.
\Ve are not only equipped to make the very best possible Manganese Steel chain so far as analysis and heat treatment are concerned,
but to test draw bench chains up to 150 tons before shipme1\t. \Ve
are of course, not confined to any one design, but can furnish the
design best suited the conditions.

have found th,e manganese sheaves we purchasd from you in 1926 and
1927 everything which you claim for them us to wear, service and
dependability. We would no more think of going buck t_o the old type
sheaves we were using at the time we placed our first order with your

fourteen hours daily, with but one shut-down of two weeks for repairs. \Ve could not have accomplished this had we been sub.iect to
the sheave and cable trouble we experienced before we became
acquainted with your products."
The Enitineer of a New England Gas Company. Sheaves bought in
1927-January 80, 1930"The AMSCO Manganese Steel Sheaves referred to in your letter
are still in use and have proved very satisfactory. \Ve have no hesitation in stating that these greatly outwear ordinary cast iron sheaves
and are generally superior."
A Massachusetts Contr.a ctor, January 30, 1930"I used AMSCO Manganese Steel Sheaves on a Bearcut Shovel in
1927 with most satisfactory results. I am at present using an Osgood
Conqueror and have not, us yet, been obliged to replace the sheaves,
but when I do replace them I shall certainly replace them with Manganese Steel because of their strength and durability to stand hard
usage."
The Purchasing Agent of an Eastern Dock Company, January 31,
1930"We have had four of these sheaves in operation on fair lead "of
bridge for seven months. They arc standing up all right."
:'.: The Superintendent of Waste Disposal of a Metal Mining Com•
pany, January 10, 1930"We find the Manganese Sheu\"es very satisfactory in the crane
service. We use them extensh·ely in our buckets and they seem to
have no limit to their life. I would say that we can notice no extreme
wear to cables, due to roughness of the sheaves. Some of these sheaves
we have had for ten years or more and an occasional bushing is all
they need. I would state from my experience that Manganese Steel
Sheaves are to be recommended for service on Industrial Locomotive
Cranes, on the boom and elsewhere."
A Dock Superintendent, February 4, 1930"Our mechanic reports that the sheaves mentioned were installed as
holding rope sheaves on our electric cranes in 1926 and so far have
shown very little wear. He claims that with the ordinary sheaves he
had used previous to this, replacement would be necessary at least
every two seasons under present conditions, and says that the service
given by the manganese sheaves is very satisfactory In comparison
to the ordinary sheaves."
A California Truclcinii concern, February 6, 1980"We are pleased to inform you that we have u.sed your sheaves and

8 Yard Bucket Weighs 22,669 Pounds
The 8-yard dredge bucket, illustrated, made for a Gre11t Lakes
dredging concern, is a typical application of the superior shock and
wear resistant qualities of AMSCO Manganese Steel.
The total weight is 22,669 pounds, the bucket being entirely of
Manganese Steel with the exception of the rivets, pins and shaft. As

e~·err dredge opera to r kno\\'s, in a built-up type of bucket the extreme
cl1ggmg shock and stresses distort the plates and loose n the rivets.
To eliminate the poss ibility of distortion th e AMSCO Half Shells are
rnaclc as one-piece Manganese Steel castin gs, leaving no possibility
for loosening and very littl e likelihood of breakage. The rigid Manganese Steel Uprights permit even operation in opening and closing.
In the AMSCO Bucket either rope or chain can be used, which makes
for eas ier repairs on the job.
Of course the great s trength, shock resistance and wear resistance
afforded by Manganese Steel Castings, of which the bucket is entirely
constructed, assures the operators of longer life from parts that are
subjected to shocks and wear.
Simplicity of design allows for repairs ancl replacements to be
made with great facility, and this fact alone often eliminates serious
delays and costly shut-downs. \Ve have made a number of these
buckets during the past few years, and all of them have gi\'en splendid economy and first class efficiency.
\\Then you buy Buckets, Clamshells, Orange Peels, Grabs or
Dippers, be sure to specify :Made of A:MSCO j)fan.gmieRc Steel. It is
your guarantee of maximum service.

Largest AH-Manganese
Steel Dipper Ever Made
The largest, all-M a nga nese Steel Powe r
Shovel Dipper eve r ma de is illustrated her e
-note its size compared with th e horse a nd
ca rt.
This mammoth powe r shovel dipper, by
far the most mass ive of its ki nd ever built,
was cas t a nd assembled a t the Chicago
H eights Pla nt of the America n Ma nga nese
Steel Company for the U nited Elect ric Coal
Company, Danville, I lli nois. It is in u c a t
their Duquoin Illinois Strip l\Iine under the
direction of Mr. J . ,v. F cllmeth, Operat ing
E ngin eer, to whom we a rc indebted for the
interestin g facts presented he re.
11he dipper is 14' high ove r the bail, 12'
"·ide between outsides of bail brackets a nd
14.' fr om the ends of the dipper teeth to the
bottom of t he door, it weighs 37 ton s
(emp ty ) a nd is of 15 cubic ya rds capacity.
A busy s ta tistician has fi g ured out its
weigh t as bei11g a bout 3 70 ti mes th at of the
t wo girls perched on the uppe r edge of th e
bucket back or a bout 7,J.o times the weight
of one of the two girls, a nd almos t twice th&lt;'
weight of a ny one load of ma terial it will
ha ndl e.
This clipper is used at one of the largest
s trip mines in Illinois, and is in service on
one of the world's largest electric power
shoYcls (built by the Marion Steam ShoYel
Compa ny) for stripping overburden from
coal. Some idea as to the size of the shovel
on which it will be used is found in the fact
that a full size seven passenger automobile
can be driven under it when the shovel is
operating on level ground.

The specifications of the shovel follow:
Length of boom.. . . . .
. . l20 ft.
Length of handle .
. . . . 83 ft.
Size of dipper . . . .
. . .. l5 cu. yd.

story all mixed up. Some one said that something comes in like a
Lion and brings April flowers or goes out like a lamb that's all wet or
something-anyhow it hasn't happened where we live, and -if you've
noticed any of those business charts lately, you'll see that it's good
around Chicago. And maybe that's because of the many satisfied customers who are continuing to order Manganese Steel Parts and Jots of
them, although our increased facilities are not taxed in any sense yet,
and if you can't send in an order right away, why don't you send us
an April bouquet, in the form of a Jetter, telling us of the things that
AMSCO Manganese Steel has accomplished for you-and we'll let all
the world know about it in some other issue of this bulletin.

T IS generally agreed that the foreman holds a key ways-by Group Discussion, or by Distribution to

position in industry-not only from the stand- Foremen.
of quantity and quality production-but also
insofar as the safety of the workers is concerned.
In the past, industrial managers have appreciated
the importance of the foreman, but they have frequently assumed that he knows more about accident
prevention than he actually does. Thus, much less
effort has been devoted to the education of foremen
than to the education of workers.

Regular production meetings of foremen, or foremanship training classes, are held in many companies.
In such cases, one booklet in the '' Safety in Foremanship'' series may be made the subject for discussion
at, say, every third or fourth meeting. If regular
meetings have not already been organized, a series
of special meetings may be held once a week or once
a month either on the time of the men or on company
time or on both.

Meeting the Foremanship Problem
Many managers are convinced that without letting
down on other activities, they must formulate some
plan whereby they can:
1. Give the foreman a. broader knowledge of accident pre-

vention.
2. Inspire the foreman to make accident prevention an
integral part of his job.
3. Instruct or remind the foreman concerning the definite
things he must do if accidents are to be prevented in
his department.
4. Give the foreman a source of ideas for discussion at
safety meetings and at times when he is talking to individual workers.

Seven Booklets Now Ready
Accordingly, at the request of its members, the
National Safety Council is formulating a series of
booklets to be called "Safety in Foremanship", that
will help to accomplish these objects. The titles of
the :first seven booklets are :
I. A Personal Message to You.

2. The Foreman's Opportunity-Production with Safety.
3. Have Yon Thought About This7
4. Do Yon Know How Much An Accident Costs7
5. Safeguards-Why and How.
6. Look Out for That First Step.
7. Are You "Following Through "7

Each booklet is short and to the point, and the
whole series can be put into one book-size loose-leaf
binder.
These booklets a.re written so they can be used to
advantage in all types of industries in either of two

Plan for Distribution
Copies of a given booklet should be distributed to
all foremen about one week in advance of the meeting at which that subject is discussed. Each man is
thus expected to read it and come to the meeting prepared to participate in the discussion. (Booklet No.
1, h01.oever, is not intended for discussion. It is simply introductory, to prepare the mind of the foremOln
for the booklets to follow.)
The discussion leader should be selected with considerable care. He may be an executive officer of the
company, the general manager, the superintendent,
the chief engineer, the safety man, or some other
natural leader with a pleasing personality and the
ability to get others to talk. He should not make
speeches. On the other hand, he should make a few
introductory remarks and then ask questions which
will pump information out of instead of into his
group of foremen. These questions of course should
relate to the specific subject under discussion. Suggested questions and answers are printed further on
in this leaflet, and are not intended for distribution to
the foremen.

General Discussion Valuable
The men should be encouraged to volunteer in giving their answers, al-though it may be necessary (particularly at the start) to call on certain individuals.
Three or four answers to the same question may be
sought. These answers should then be discussed from
the floor in detail.
The men should not be permitted to refer to their
booklets in the meetings. Instead they should be
urged to talk and cite examples from their own experience. It may often be possible to emphasize certain

ideas by reference to recent occurrences right in your
own company.

dnys.-In the meantime, won't you write me a brief report, telling me what you think of the whole idea in general and this booklet in particulnr'l "

It is •best to organize small rather than ·1arge groups
of foremen. If too many men are present, each person's participation in the discussion may be so !,imited that he will not get the benefits that are derived
from small meetings. The maximum should be 15 to
20. In many plants, therefore, it may be advisable
to organize two or more groups simultaneously.

When opening a meeting, it is always well for the
leader to review briefly the subject discussed at the
preceding meeting-then to continue for just a few
minutes in introducing the new subject. As already
suggested he should proceed to ask leading questions
which will stimulate thought among the foremen
present and which will emphasize important facts that
may or may not be covered in detail in the corresponding booklet.

Send Him a Personal Letter
If it is impracticable in certain companies to hold
group discussions of the "Safety in Foremanship"
booklets, the managers should distribute them to the
foremen at the rate of one a week or one a month.
Each booklet, however, should be accompanied with
a personal letter such as:
"Dear Bill: Do you remember when ,Tim Smith got
hurt'l I guess we've all been thinking about it in the
past few weeks. Just a day or two ago I started rending
the enclosed booklet on 'Accidents Cost Money'. It ties
in so perfectly with our own case that I at once became interested and read it through to the end. I know it will
interest you, too. Other booklets in this 'Safety in Fore•
manship' series nro to follow. I hope yon will keep them
nil for future reference. I just ordered some loose-leaf
binders in which to keep them. I 'II gh-e ~•ou one in n few

5. Does anyone recall an accident in the company that he
didn't know how to prevent7
6. Does anyone recall an accident where the price paid by the
injured worker involved loss of his home-his wife or children going to work-or other kinds of privation 7
7. What is Workmen's Compensation7 Who pays it7 Why is
it n good thing for the workers?
(Compensation is paid by the company.

The following questions are suggestions which the
leader may use in leading the discussion on a given
subject. Some leaders may discard one or more questions or add others. In general, the best results will
be secured if the discussion can be adapted to, and
reflect, actual conditions and experience of your own
firm.
Typical answers are given in this leaflet to many
of the questions suggested, but it must be borne in
mind that these answers in many cases are exceedingly brief and sketchy. They are, in the main,
simply indicative of the correct answers to be given.

BOOKLET No. 2

1. .A.re compensation payments, doctors' bills and hospital ex-

penses the only costs of an accident7
(No.)

5. Do you know of any actual cases to illustrate these causes 7

3. If it is true that these qualifications make a foreman good
for quality and quantity production, what aclditional qualifications does he need to succeed in prcYcnting accidents in
his departmenH

7. If the foreman can cure the causes of bad production, he
automatically eliminates the causes of accidents, doesn't he f

(Same as the cause of bad production records.)

(Yes.)
8. Can you think of any accidents that result from causes that
arc beyond the control of the foreman f
(Accidents caused by "Acts of God.")

BOOKLET No. 3

"Have You Thought About This?"

(97,000 total. 20,000 in industry. 3,000,000 workers injured :mnunlly; each one is forced to lay off work at
least one day because of the injury.
2. What percentage of accidents is preventnblef

(At least 98 per cent.)
3. What types of accidents are unnvoidablef

(You and I.)

3. What are some of the other costs7

7. How do accident costs affect the sale of our own products?

(Loss of production; damage to tools and equipmen!;
loss of time of injured worker, of foreman and others m

breaking in new men.)
4. Consider n typical accident occurring in our plant and cal-

culate the total cost7

(Accident costs must be included in :figuring manufacturing costs. If our costs are too high, our competitors
will undersell us and drive us out of business.)

(Our individual success is to n great extent dependent
upon the success of our company.)

Suggestions for Discussion
BOOKLET No. 5

"Safeguards-Why and How"
1. Will safeguards around machinery and plant equipment
prevent accidents?

(Yea!

Some, but not all.)

2. What per cent of accidents can be prevented by safeguards7
(10 to 20 per cent.)
3. If that percentage is so low why are safeguards so important in industry'i
(a. Guards do prevent nccidents-i. e. .A. man can't put
his hands in a set of genre if the gears are properly
guarded.
b. Guards give the worker a sense of security.

Suggestions for Discussion

1. How many people in the U. S. lose their lh-cs in accidents
each yead

(The employ.er, the injured worker, his family, merchants,
the community, the country.)

(.A.ppronmately 3 billion dollars.)

2. What percentage are those costs of the total cost7

(Failure to issue clear instructions, failure to follow-up,
inexperience, too much speed, etc.)

and a sorrow cannot be paid for with money, nor can any
amount replace a father or husband, or put back a lost
finger, eye, or leg.)

Suggested Outline of Discussion

Suggestions for Discussion

1. What are some of the qualifications a man must have to
make a good foreman 'I

It is n good

thing beenuse payments are uniform and automatic; no
lawyers or court proceedings are necessary.)

c. Guards prove that the firm is sincere in its efforts to
prevent accidents.
d. They prove the foreman is sincere in his efforts to
prevent accidents.
e. Guards help bring out safety suggestions from the
workers.
f. The accidents occurring on ma~hinery are usually
more serious than non-machinery accidents.)
4. Do yon know of any actual cases illustrating one or more
of these points 7

5. What are some of the fundamentals that should be followed
in designing, constructing and installing safeguards!
(a. Guard should eliminate the hazard of accidental injury to operator and passersby.
b. Should not interfere with production.
c. Should be attached to machine-not to floor.
cl. The equipment guarded must be easily accessible for

oiling, inspection, and repair.
e. Guard should not interfere with sweeping and cleaning.
f. Guard must be strong enough to stand nse and abuse.
g. Guard should preferably be made of metal.
h. Guard should preferably be interlocked with operating mechanism.
i. If possible, guard should prevent excessive wear on

the part guarded.)
6. Are there e.~amples of our own equipment guarded in
accordance with these fundamentals7
7. How can we get advice in deciding what to guard and
how to guard it7
(n. From insurance and state inspectors.

�I
AN EXPLANATION OF '' SAFETY IN FOREMANSHIP ''

b. From members of our safety department.
c. By making a study of processes and methods.
d. By getting suggestions from the workers.)

(Man-to-man talk; explain why safeguards are necessary
and what would happen to him and bis family, if he were
injured; ask if the guard is OK, if it isn't ask for suggestions for improvement; in an extreme case resort to
discipline.)

8. How can you get men to use the safeguards provided 1
Gilggles-saw guard-etc. 9

Subjects for Discussion
BOOKLET No. 6

"Look Out for That First Step!"
1. Why is a new worker usually more susceptible to injury
than the "old-timers" 9
(His surroundings are new, he's anxious to make good
right at the start, he hesitates to admit ignorance, it
takes some time to get the "feel" of his job.)
2. What can the employment man do to impress the men he
hires with the necessity of "being careful" i
(Tell them the management is wholeheartedly interested
in preventing accidents, management has provided safe
working conditions and is proud that the workers are
doing their part, too, etc.)
3. What can the foreman do to get the new man started right9
(Be friendly, tell him the firm and particularly this
department bas a good safety record, encourage him to
help make the record still better, introduce him to his
neighbors in the department, encourage him to consult
you on anything he's not sure about, do his job for him

for a few minutes, and explain the hazards, then watch
him do the job for a few minutes, come back to him from
time to time and make sure he doesn't develop wrong
and unsafe habits, etc., etc.)
4. How can a foreman study and learn about the accident
hazards of all the jobs performed in his departmentV
(By thinking back over the accidents that have occurred
to bis men, by consulting the firm's statistics and accident cause classifications, by learning of the experience
of similar departments in other firms, by reading trade
journals, NATIONAL SAFETY NEWS, pamphlets of
the National Safety Council and other organizations,
through safety posters, by watching men work, etc.)
5. What about the "old-timers" 9 How should you treat an
old-timer who is transferred to another job or to another
department 9
(Treat him almost like a new man insofar as the hazards of his new job are concerned.)

Suggestions for Discussion
BOOKLET No. 7

"Are You 'Following Through?'"
1. What are some of the reasons for most of the accidents
occurring to men in our firm '1
(The most obvious answer is ''carelessness.'' Explain
why "carelessness" is too broad; why it is simply an
alibi. More definite answers are inattention, poor judgment, haste, work improperly planned, disobedience of
rules, interference by others, lack of experience, lack of
skill, instructions incomplete, or not enforced or not
given at all.)
2. Is it important for the foreman to differentiate between
these "causes of injuries' "l
(Yes, because different causes call for different methods
of correction.)
3. Out of 330 "mishaps" on n given job, how many times
on the average will the worker be seriously injured 7
(1).
How many times will be suffer minor injuryf
(29).
How many times will near-injuries result?
(800).
4. If injuries occur to workers usually after repeated unsafe

practices, isn't it important for the foreman to detect these
unsafe practices before the workers are injured i
(Yes.)
5. Isn't it likewise important for the foreman to study and
learn what unsafe practices are common on each job under
his supervision i
(Yes.)
6. Take any typical operation familiar to the foremen-such
as using a ladder, or an emery wheel-and analyze it to
determine how many separate unsafe practices and conditions may result in injury to a worker.
(For instance, take an emery wheel: wheel out of balance; tool rest set too high, too low, too close, too far
away; hood guard removed; failure to wear goggles;
grinding on side of wheel, etc., etc.)
7. Can the foreman get all workers in his department to help
him bring about the elimination of unsafe conditions and
uns~e practicesi
(Yes.)
HowT
(By developing team work.)

�PREFACE

I NT R ODUCT I ON

In J 1tn11111·y, 1924, the Employcs' Magazine of 'l'hc F 11 i011 Pacific
Coal Compuny and its subsi&lt;lia ry, U1e \Vu.shington l -11io11 Coal Conrpa,nv
was launched as 11 medium of good will o..nd unde1·sta11ding. 11 ith t he fu rth~i:
hope that as the year s passed , much of the life and color of the pinncer
days might be p ut iuto p1·int and thus saved. \Yith thi,- end in 111 inJ s hll'ies
and sketches, t ogethe r with m1:r ny old photographs, we re a ssembled itnd reproduced, and it is this material, together with certain widely scatte red
nnd fragwentary records, us well 11 s mauy inten·ie11·s wiH1 t he lllen u.nd
women who lived and wo rked in and a bout tl1e mines in the ea rly d n.y:., that
served a s the foundation of this little history.

'l'l,e Union P acific R a ilroad Company was conceived in a turbulent
period in the history of the America.n nation, a time of unrest and conflict.,
of great drea ms and grea.ter achievement. Gold seekers had poured through
the middlcwcst to California only n few yea.rs before, a.nd Brigha.m Young
had but r ecently led his discip les of t he Church of Lutter Duy Sa.ints t o
their promised land on t he bunks of the grea.t Sa.1t L uke, a.nd what wa.s even
more p o1·tentous, the North and the South were on the brink of a Civil
W a r.

,vhile searching for old time materia l it was found tha t ;\fr. Julius
Kruttschnitt, railroad engineer and ex.ecu t i,·c, whil(' in cllll rgt• in un cxccutiYc capacity of the coal mjncs in 1907, issued in.;;trnd iom; t o gather
the necessary material for a histo ry of the Railroad Company',, coal mining interests. Diligent search failed, l10wcYcr , to unea rt·h n il)' :,uch material ,
with the r esult that the numerous men and women whu ha\'e by cooperntive
effort put the work together, have been compelled to start close to the
grass roots.
The authors r eferred to, who will remain anonymous (tlrns avoiding
resp011sibility for repetitions and au occasional split infiuitivc) , wish to
cxp1·ess their tha nks for the help so kindly rendered. with the hope thut
our readers, the Old Timers most of nil, will as tht·y read the pages tlnLt
follow, experience a flood of kindly 1·ccollt•dions of thl'ir pio neer clays.
wheu nearly all W(.&gt;l'e young and httppy, C'\'l'Il though they then knew n1mght

The U nion P acific Coal Compan,y.

H.ock Springs, Wyoming,
June 1, 1940.

r.rhot Southern °''Vyoming with her vast nnd unfathomed stores of bituminous coal wns cl1osen as the r oute for the Union P acific R a ilroad was
onlv a matter of luck - luck a nd t he fierceness of the Blackfeet and Sioux
India ns of the northern country. R a.ilroad officials bud but fixed upon the
economical water grade highwny of Northern Wyoming us theil- route,
when t l1e hostility of the northern redmen and the contra.sting cordiality of
the sonlhcrn Shoshones cha.nged t heir choice to the Overland Route.
The Fc&lt;lc.n d Government hnd ceded to t.he Union Pacific 11 right of
way four hundred feet jn ,vidth through the public la.nds and had granted
them nlso e,•ery alternate section of land, in a checkerboard pattern. for
twenty miles etteh side of t he right of way. The underlying mineral, not included in the original bill, wa.s later a.dded to the surface la.nd grant. Luck
nud tl1e M l ,·11ge Blackfeet had ordained thnt the Railroad's grant should
include the rich coal veins of the south a.nd not the northern lands devoid
of minerul.

It is the purpose of this book to trace the history of coo.I mining in
southern ' l\'yoming under The U nion Pa.cific Coal Compa.ny and its predecesso1·, the Coal Department of t he Railroad. Although of necessity sucl1
an account must include n. certain mea.sure of technical matter, this book
is ma.inly a story of men, such men as poured their lives into the black and
sooty spaces of the earth, such men as those hundreds who ga.ther each year
at The U nion Pacific Coa.l Company Old Timer s' celebration. Through
these pages ma.rch army engineers, explorers, trappers, guides a.nd adventurers, intrepid heroes all, to be followed by the men who built the raihoa.d,
discovered, prospected 11nd developed mines, with that no less courageous
band of men and women who have, since the first. settlement s wc1·c made at
Jamestown, Vi1·ginia, and P lymouth Rock, Ma.ssa.chusetts, marched westward, side bv side with the builders; the clergymen, servants of God, the
doctors ca.ring for the sick and injured, and the tea.chers whos(.&gt; duty it
was t o train the minds of the young.

�If _they who put this history t?gether can be ~ri ticized for delving t oo
deeply. mto a~ecdote .an.cl personality, for romancmg, in short, instead of
lecturmg, let it be st.ud m defense, that the story of coal mining is not entirely one of statistics and mechanical progress, but is instead 11 story of
the vast numbers of men who go to make up the st.ntistics and who inakc
possible and profitable the t echnique of mining. If you eliminate the lnnnan
element, JOU have stripped the flesh and left onl)' the bones for thL stor y :
and history is not dry bones.
•
And so, to these splend.id men and women, many of wltosc la.bors are
over and they asleep in the quiet " God's Acres," this hi:a;to ry is dedicat ed
in ~·emembrance of their unselfish de,·.otion to du ty. thci r loyalty t o t h~
Railroad nnd the Coal Company, t heir cou1·ageou nnrl clil'C rful outlook
upon life, and their ability to overcome all obstac],,1-, - l1cl pi110- to ca i·w rtn
Empire out of a wilderness.

CHAPTER I.

The Background of the Union Pacific Railroad
Tells of tl,c gallant explorer and engineer, Captain John C. Fremont,

first to r('cogni:e the value of Wyoming's coal deposit, who was followed by
General William Henry Ashley, the first trader, with Captain Howarcl
Stansbury, engineer and scientist. not far behind. Of Jim Bridger whn
acted as guide for Fremont and later for Stansbury, who in turn first recorded the finding of coal at Rock Springs in 1852. Tells how Chief
IT'ashakir befriended the whites and summarily disposed of an insurgent
mother-in-fow.

HE :;tor)' of The Pnion Pacific Con1 Compnny r ightly begins in southT
er n ,v_vnmiug. T here it was at "Old" Carbon, now a "ghost mining
town'' located south of the Village of Hnnnn, the first mine of consequence
,ms opened in 'Wyoming. , vith the discovery of highel· grade coal at Hannn,
lhe ma in line of the railroad was relocated, and the old camp that saw its
full meed of thl.' glamorous pioneer period gave wny in 1902 to the new
location, tnking its population and cer tain of its buildings (including the
Hanna store building, dismantled in October, 1939) with it, this after
producing for the use of the rnilrond and the settlers and industries that
sprang up nlong the line, a t otal of 4,680,346 tons of coal. W e will have
occnsion to say more of Hanna in a subsequent chapter. For the moment
we will enter into an even more remote past.
The first men to see and 1·ecognize the rich coal reserves of southeru
W y oming were the fur traders, keen-eyed, sinewy men who stalked the
W;•oming hills in muskrat caps, rifle under arm, hot on the trail of a fortune in skins. Kit Carson strode that way in all his raw-boned strength.
Young Fremont!l,l came too, in the early days, before he was called "The
Pathfinder," n stern and resolute lad, newly mnrried into the family of the
influential Senator TJ10mas H. Benton of Missouri, and nlrendy cognizant
of t he political career that stretched ahead of him. There ,vas General
Ashley, gruff, staunch of heart, but with a childlike trust of all Indians
that was to cost those men who followed rum dearly. And there was Captain Stansbury, more methodical than any of the others. They are shadows
now, men who have pnssed into legend, these gods of the pioneer days. They
were -real enough then, and they left a far reaching influence on t he Nation
and its industries. Trai1blnze1·s that they were, their exploration work and
scouting made the construction of the railroad more readily possible, and
the railroad made the coal mines necessary.
• Fremont•s name was pronounced Fra-monl.

und F1·emont himself t wo o thers. The thirty-year old captain was a splendid m11n for this work. Born in Savannah, Geoi:giu, and educated as a m1ithematici1111 iu Virg inia, Fremont was resourceful und competent., with nJI of
the qualities for leadership that General Ashley had lacked. At the age of
twenty he was commissioned u second lieutenant in the U nited States
AnnJ; topographical engineer s. Eig ht years later he mu1-riC'd J cssic Benton, a daughter of l:nitcd Sta tes Sc.nator Thomus H. Benton, of Missouri,
u.nd his influentinl fu t.her -in-law helped him obtain the comrnund in 184,;J of
his first ~ui·vcying expedition. A second piece of luck ca.me t o the young
fronti&lt;'rsman when he secured the fnmous Kit Carson for his expedit ion' s
guide.
Fremont k&lt;'pt a journ1d throughout his travels nod c.\ :plorations, and
in its pages, in the ent r_v made for August 19, 1843, we find tJ1e first r ecord
of the discovery of the Cumberland-Kemmer er con.I field:
" Coal made its appearance occasionall3• in the hills during t lw
afternoon nnd wns displayed in rabbit burrows in n kind of gap,
through which we passed over some hills t'ln&lt;l descended to mnke our
encampment on the same !;tream."
The stream t o which he r efers is Little Muddy Crcl'k and tl11~ " kind of
gap" is Cumberland Gap. H C' lingered on the site, measuring t he uppt' rmost coal scam of the lower, or Spring , ·nllcy series, noti11g the n'nglc nncl
direction of dip. To the army-bred Georg ian a nd hi~ party of trappc-1·s
and scouts, however, the discovery of a con! ficlcl in i:nnccessiblc " ryoming
could not ha·ve seemed very important. Appat·ently he attached mo re signineance to the subsequent breaking of his barometer than to the discovery
of coal r esel'\'es, for he devotes far more spnt·e and enthusiasm to the• btlrometer story in his _journnl. The nccidcnt occurred while they were crosi,ing a stream. Fremont wrote:
"The current was very swift a nd the wtiter cold nnd of n crystal purity. In crossing this strNtm, I met with a grent misfortune
in 11aving my barometer broken. It was the only one. A great pnrt
of the interest of the joumey fo1· me was in the exploration of these
mount.aim;, of whieh so mud1 had been said that was doubtful 1md
contradicto1·y: the ouly means of giYing them authentically to S&lt;"icncc, the object or my anxious solicitude by night and day, was
destroyed. " 'e h11&lt;l brought this barometer in safety o. thousand
miles, and brokt- it a.lmost among the snows of the mountains. The
loss was fc]t hy tl1e whole camp. All hud seen my anxiety, und aided
me in presen-ing it. The height of these mountains, considered by
the lmntt•rs ttnd traders the highest in the whole range, hnd been a
the1m· of constant discussion among them; and all had looked forward wjt]i pleasure to the moment when the instrument which they

believed to be true a s the sun, should stand upon the summits and
decide their disputes. Their grief was only inferior to mine .... . .
"As soon as the camp was formed, I set about endeavoring to
repair my barometer. As I have already said, this was a standard
cist em barometer, of Trought on's construction. The glass cistern
had bec11 broken a bout midway; but, as the instrument had
been kept in a proper position, no air had found its way into·
t h&lt;! tub&lt;;, tl1e t'nd of which had always remained covered. I had with
me 11 number of vials of tolerably thick glass, some of which were
of the same diameter as the cist ern, and I spent the day in slowly
wo1·king on these, endeavoring t o cut them to the requisite length;
but, a s my instrnmcnt was n very rough file, I invariably broke
them. A g ro~wc was cut in one of t he trees, where the barometer was
placed du ring t he night, to be out of the way of any possible dangc..r ; and in t h~ morning I commenced again. Among the powder
h01·ns in thc- camp I found one which was very transparent, so that
its conb:n l coulcl be a lmost as plainly seen as through glass. This
I boiled nnd s tr etched on u piece of wood to t he requisite diameter
nnd scrap ed jt ver y thin, in order to increase to the utmost its
trnn ·pu renc_y. I then secured it firmly in its place on the instrument with strong glue made from a buffalo, and filled it with mercury properly heated. A piece of skin, w]1ich had covered one of the
vials, furnished a good pocket, which was well secured with strong
thread a nd glue; and then the brass cover was screwed to its place.
The instrument was left some time to dry; and, when I reversed it
a few hours after I had the satisfaction to find it in perfect order,
its indications being about the same us on the other side of the lake
before it had been broken."
• l •'rer11ont was a great engineer, his mind was cast along scientific
lines. In after years hls fitness for political life was questioned. Of him it
was nptly said: "Fl'om t.he asl1es of his camp fires have sprung cities."
Finishing touches on the pathfinding of Fremont and Ashley were
added by Captain Howard Stansbury of the United States Topogrnphical
Engineers, a third pioneer explorer. Stansbury made two discoveries of
interest and aid to the Union Pacific Railroad and its handling of the
problem of fuel. First, Stansbury charted a shorter route across the
southern end of the state, and, second, he recorded the Rock Springs coal
deposits, the most valuable in the state. St ansbury owed much of the credit
for these accomplishments to Jim Bridger, who invaded the mountains as
a youth of eigMeen with Ashley, and who been.me probably the greatest
"mountain man" of them all. He hq.d built lfort Bridger by the time Fremont came along, and gave the young "Pathfinder" much valuable assistance. Bridger's real service, however, remained to be given to Stansbury.
Fremont had the veteran Kit Carson to lend him, but Stansbury's party
contained no such expert guide. Bridger became Stansbury's Kit Cal'Son.
'W here Fremont l1ad covered a great deal of territory, Stansbury, led by
Bridger, covered less ground but did it more thoroughly.

In 1849 the Govemment detailed Stansbury, with n small force, to
sUl'vey the Great Salt Lake Basin. Prnbably the instr~1ctions to survey
the basin were only a diplomatic blind for thl' real purpose of determining
whether the l nitcd States should takl' over the governmental affai r,; of
the new and rapidly cxpttnding Morlllon settlement on tl1c edge of the
basin. ,vhatever the purpose, Capta,in Stansbury and his assistant, Lieutenant J. V\T. Gum1ison, did a good job of surveying the territory, ::m d
began their retum trip in August. of 1852. As was customary with all
travelers along this route, Stansbury und his troops stopped at Fo1·t
Bridger to rest and repair their equipment. Captain Stansbury did Hot
1·elish the iuea of taking the long detour up north to c rnss the 1110un l a ins
at South Pass aud asked Jim Bridger to lead them cast by a shorfrr ruu le.
Thus began the association of the two frontiersmen , the surveyor and Liu •
guide, that w~s to leud to so many sign ificant ndditions to the knowlcdg,·
of Wyoming.
Bridger led Stansbury and l1is men up Green RiYer to Ditter Cr~·ck.
then up this creek through what is now Rock Sprinas n.nd on throug h the
present Thayer Junction, Poiut of Rocks, and H.awlit1s, and south oi .\lc(licine Bow- almost cxactl3• the route the Union Pacific Railroad was t o
follow. It was on September 4, 1852, that the party manclcd at the O'J'c&gt;11 t
outcroppings of coal that were to bring Rock Sp1·ings into being. Sta m,~ury's note.s describe a good q.uality coal in beds ten feet thick protruding
from the hllls 011 the south side of the creek. This wns on the site where
Blairtown, the uncestor of Rock Springs, was later to be ]ocutcJ. 'l'he notes
St~nsbury _made wei-c so complete tlta t c,·en today they cnn serve n:; a
gmde, despite the fact that a city has been built on the Jund.
The men followed Bitter Creek throuwh what is now known us ''\Vest
Flat" or Hillside Addition, and then conti~ued around the bluff to an outcropping of coal where N?mber FiYe ::\~inc later was opened, passing 011
t~ another bed of coal which probabl~· 1s the one now known as Numbel'
Six Seam, and thence further to the outcrops of Number Three and Number Four Seams. The)• passed by Number Nine Seam on thcil' way out.
Undoubtedly it would be wrong to say that Captain Stansbul'V discovered the Rock Springs coal field. His own notes describe the neurbj Salt
·wells .~nd tell of his_ meeting a lar~c 11umbe1· of trappers iu this popular
gathe~mg_place. ~t 1_s almos:t ce.rta111 that the trappers knew of the coal
deposits, ,Just us it 1s certain that tJ1e mountain men knew of the trails
followed by Ashley and _Fremont. Captain Stansbury's great contribution,
as had been the case with the two men before him, was that he recorded
wl1at he Saw and made the information available to the Government.
H would l~ot be fair to end this brief account of men who opened the
way for the rntlrnad, and thus helped prepare fo1· the development of the
co11l resources of Soutl1ern

The lute Dr. Grncc R11ymond Hebnrd, beloved University of Wyoming

"'Vashakie (the rnunc is accented on the first syllable) was,

Shoshuues, only part Shoshone in blood, and an orphan boy~ with
110 fainily l'01111cctions to aid him, he rose to command by his prowes, and skill in battle. Out of scattered groups, in time of general
1rn:~r chy in the Shoshone nation, he created his own band, and he
sa w it g row to an t' Jt'cctivc fighting force. His warfare was mainly
&lt;h:fcnsin i. Though generally at peace, and sometimes in alliance

to the main-tuining of what they deemed their own than o attempting to despoil others. He was not always a vict.or, and yet he seems

of his encrnie:; nnd force them to w1thdrnw from profitless combat.
Atttlining cbicftuinship, he remained an iron-handed ruler. David G.
'l"homas 1 in "Overland and Underground," writes of him as follows:
"The chief was but a savage child
Of nature, and as yet untamed
In whitemcn's eyes, and undefiled
By his environments, but famed
For traits the passing whitemtin lacked;
For honesty-all that it meantFor wisdom and for tender tact
In tribal joys and disconten~; .
Loving the truth; and from !11s lips
No substitute for it e'er came;

CHAPTER II.

The Railroad and Its Early FuelSupply
Tells why the Union Pacific Railroad was built. How rails from Pennsylvania and New York came by railroad, and by the Ohio and Mississippi
rivers to St. Louis and thence by the Missouri river to St. Joseph, Missouri,
where, together with locomotives and cars, they were trans/erred to smaller
boats Jor transport ·u p tbe river to Omaha. How wood was first used for
locomotive fuel which later gave W(IIJ to Iowa mined coal, which in turn
•y ielded place to coal mined at Carbon and Rock Springs, Wyoming. Here
i., shown the production of all coal mined by districts from 1868 to 1939,

A history of The Union Pacific Coal Company wou1d be incomplete without at least a brief reference to the great railroad whose coming into existence mnde the production of coal in V\Tyoming in large quantities possible, in foct without t he Union Pacific Railroad there would be no

down as wards of a pnternnl government, to leave their reservations from
time to time to serve ns scenery for a western movie or a rodeo. Today the
people who live in Wyoming have lost much of·t~~ir,,early inte_1~est in aii·plnnes und the sinuous yellow diesel strcamliners, that streak across the
~tatc Id speccls thut were not even dreamed of seventy years ago. ,~re will attempt in this chapter to set forth the 'national situation that made a great
transcontinental railroad necessary to the preservation of the Union in the
sixties, a condition which yet exists, e\'en more definitely than it did fo Civil
War duys. As no great railroad could be operated without fuel, the background of that situation will also be presented.
On July 1, 1862, "an act to aid in the construction of a railroad anrl
telegraph line from the Missouri River to the Pacific Ocean ancl to secure
to the Government the use of the same for postal, military, and other purposes," wt.is enacted by the Congress of the United States. On July 2, 1864&lt;,

The :initial point of construction near the City of Omaha wns dctc1·mined by President Abraham Lincoln in the full of 186:3, o.nd on Odober
29, 1863, tl1e work of completing the co1·porntion 1rns effected and thirty
stockholding and three Government directors elected, thercafte1· the work
of location commenced and the line was s{1rveye&lt;l to Fremont, Nl bruska,

of Congress, July 2, 1864&lt;, amendatory of the Act of 1862, the s t uc kholding directors were reduced from thirty to fifteen and the G u, crn1m:nt
directors were increased from three to five.
In August, 1864, the first contrnct for 100 miles of road was ma de
o.nd the work commenced. Difficulties relative to locntion, however, tnost',
with the result that the first forty miles of t rack were not laid until J anu
ary, 1866. RniJs irnd fastenings fo1· track construction were purchased in
Danville, Scranton and Johnstown, J&gt;ennsvlvauia, and Troy, New Yo rk, a
portion of thjs matexial shipped to Bost~n by rail, thcnc~ by ocean and
river to St. Joseph, Missouri, via New Orleans. ,Another portion wi:ts moved
by rail to St. Louis, and yet another portio11 moved by rail and the Lakes
to Chicago, thence by rail to St. Louis and bv the l\lissonri Riv&lt;&gt;r to St.
Joseph, Missouri, where the track and other c~nstruction material, including locomotives and cars, wns transfcned to smaller boats for movement
to Omaha.
For locomoti,..e fuel, cottonwood cordwood cut from the bunks of tlw
l\'lissouri River and tributaries was first bought at Omaha for from eight
to twelve dollars per cord, and after construction was well under wu ,. additional wood was bought delivered on line of 1·oad for a distance of 7.5
miles west of Omaha at prices ranging from five to ten dollars per cord.
No further supply of wood for locomotive fuel was made available until
the Platte River was reached, ab~ut 225 miles fron1 Omaha, where a supply
" ' US ~ought f. o. b. trucks for e1gl1t dollars per cord. Inferior cordwood
consti~uted the available locomotive fuel supply UI]til mil connections were
estabhshed between the Iowa coal fields and Council Bluffs on the east bunk
of the :Missouri River, after which that coal succeeded cordwood the Iowa
coal ul~imatcly yielding in 1869 to coal produced in the mines de;c.loped by
the Railroad Company at Carbon and Rock Springs, ,~.ryoming.
The acts of Congress befon• referred to establish tl1e fact that the•
construction of t~le_ "Pacific Railways" was the joint work of the stockholders and the :C mted. States Government. Financial aid, in the form of
l~nd grants and bonds issued by the United States Government, was provided, and the location of the lines, character of construction and opera-

President of the United Stutes. The subsidies referred to above were
"granted to the said Company, for the purpose of aiding in the construction of said railroad and telegrnph line, and to secure the safe and speedy
transportation of the mails, troops, munitions of war, and public stm·;s
thereon." To operate n trans-continental railway fuel was an absolute requirement in 1804, and every mile of the proposed location was assiduously

workable coal found on t he line extending west from Oma!m:
"A discovery of almost incalculable value to the Compn~y, and
to the entire country along the line of the road, has been thnt of

which had previously been obtained from northern Iowu for that
purpose. The fuel question has been one which it was feared would
be hard to meet in the far west, where timber was co'lnparatively
scnrcc, but t he opening of this coal field, together with the working
of other beds near Cheyenne, and the discovery of yet other extensivc deposits in '", cber Valley, west of the '\Vahs11tch mountains,
h n.,·c solved the problem in 11 manner as satisfactory as it is valuaLlc."
In a 1·cpo rt dated J anuar3' 22, 186-1,, made to the President and Directors of the Ruill'Ond Company, Professor James T. Hodge, Geologist,
referred to the discovery of coul on "Coal Creek" and on "South Boulder
Creek" ubout 22 miles nol'th of Denver, Colorado, in what is now refencd
to H" the N ort hern Colorado lignite field. This field was developed at Eric,
~orth1·rip a nd L ouisville, Colorado, by the Railroad Company in 1882, to
meet the requi rements of the commercial trade. Due to difficult mining cond itions n11d the soft charncte1· of coal mined, the field was nbnndoned by
tl1c H11ih·n,1rl Company in 1885.
It must be bome. in mind tho.t the Railroad Compnny was charged
with the dnal responsibility of not only securing a supply of Tnilway fuel

Throughout the construction period, from Odobcr, 18ti3, until the
eastern and western lines were joined ut Prnmontor~· Point, l'tah, on i\Ia_y
10, 1869, and for rna.ny years thereafter, 11. force of geologists, mining engineers 1rnd prospectors was maintained by the Railroad in the work of
searching for useublc coal. Certain of the fields dcvdopcd were us':'d exclusively for the commercial coul requirements of a growing population. It
is interesting to note that the records of the Pnited Stall's Geological SurVCJ report the first product-ion of coal in the R ocky )fountain region from
mines in Colorado, 500 tons in 1864; " 7yomiug 800 tons in 1865; ·c tnh
5,800 tons in 1870; and 1\Ioutnna 224 to.ns in 1880. It is a fnir assumption
that the smull initial tonnages reported above were mined by the United
States Al'lny for ganison use. It is further interesting to note that the
Survey\, report of coal produced in , ¥:,oming in 1868, totalling 6,925
tons, represent.:-: that mined by the Ruilrond Company ut Carbon and Rock
Springs. T ht• widespread extent of the Rnilroad Company's ex:plorntion

rlciin:rv on the cast bank of the Missouri River at Council Bluffs, ·Iowa,
the co~t of fcrriagc across the Missouri River was $2.50 per ton, n.nd it
was not until i\Inrch 22, 1872, that n. rail bridge was made available for
rinir cro~sing, eliminating fcrringc. The consumption of fuel in 1875 by
the motive -power of the railroad was 148,877 tons of coal, costing $4.75
per ton, and 7,137 cords of wood, costing $6.50 per cord.
With the opening of the R ailroad Company's mines at Almy, '"7yotning, jn 1869, and after the complctio11 of the connection with the· Centra1
Pacific line, fuel coal was supplied to that compan31 which previously imported its requi rements from mines in British Co1nmbin and Austl·n.lia.
During_the !car 1875, the Railroad Company produced 208,222 ton,s of
coal nt its mmcs, imggcsting that approximately 59,335 tons were rn;ed £or
local use nnd f~r sale commercially. Such was the small beginning of the
work of supplymg fuel to the settlers, communities and the two rnilronds

To plan a tra11scontinental railroad was one thing; to build it was
another. Public sentiment hooted at the idea of the p r oject, when it was
fin,t bronched in the first hnlf of the nineteenth century. As late as 1856,
after Gencrnl Fremont, lris surveys completed, had tlll'own himself into
politics and had become the presidential nominee of the National R epublica~ Party, the clnu~e in his party's platform calling for the building of a
ra1lr?~d to th~ !'ac1fic was regarded as a cheap ele.ctioneering stunt. T he
pubhc s skepticism was not at all shaken by the fa.ct that the Government
itself had sponsored several surveys of transcontinental routes, and that
the redoubtable United States Senator, Stephen A. Douglas, of Illinois,
had the year befo1·e introduced a bill proposing separate routes on three
of the surveys.

HISTORY OF UNION PACIFIC COAL MINES

By 1860, with more than I.\ half million persons in the far western
states, it was costing the Government ~omc eight millio_n dc~ll_nrs a year
to transport troops over tl1c grent terntory to protect its c1hzens in the
fnr west. The only means of communicntion between the western tenitories and the east ern stntl's was by pony express or co\'crcd wagon train
on land, and n route around Cupe Horn (with nn arduous transfci·

surface, pushed to _the tipple and their conte~ts dumped into the pockets
where the locomotives stopped to refuel. VV1th the opening of the first
mine, came the opening of the town.
There wn.s no sign in 1111 the noisy, boisterous life of the upstart town
to show thnt Carbon canied, due to the discovery of a higher grade coal
at Hnnnn, the ccds of its own dissolution. There was nothing to show
thut Carbon's ghost would haunt the deserted mine slopes and that the harsh
1Vyoming wind would blow over the empty
shell of the town in less than a third of a
century. The very air seemed filled with
the promise of 11. bright future. Houses
sprang up as from the earth itself, as
miners dug caves into the side of the nenrby ravine and covered the fronts with
bonrds and earth, with a stovepipe poked
throug11 n. hole. in the top of each roof.
:\Jore pretentious houses, built of twelveinch planks, upended, gave the settlement
nn 1tir of jaunty impermanence. Still these
small, unpretentious shanties were not built
by transients as temporary stopping
plnces. R ather we1·e they the forerunners of
Thomas IT'ardell
pcrmane11t homes, t he hasty makeshifts of
pioneers, that would give way to better
houses when time and monl'Y pe&gt;rmitted.
1 .ivin.!.;' eonditions in the town were primitive. A large cistern lined
ll'ith lioanl, provided the miners and their wives with water for home use.
1"'he ruilroarl haule&gt;d the wnter in tank cars f}.·om Medicine Bow, charging
nothing for this service, and the men dipped what water they needed from
the cistern's sounding depths by means of an old powder keg, hauling it
to the bnncls tlrnt stood before the shanties and stores, at a cost of
twenty-five cents a. barrel.
As thr scattering of soddies and shacks took on the character of a
community, the miners began to plan for a school and a church. They
pooled their slender resources to buy lumber and set about the work of
construction. Good miners made indifferent carpenters they soon discovered, nnd difficulties beset them at every blow of the hammer. Added
to their lack of skill were troubles brought by the strong wind that swept
across the country. These men from Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Germany
and tl1e British I slands turned puzzled faces to the unaccustomed gusts
of "'7yoming weather. Three times the framework for the church blew
down and three times they patiently buildcd anew, before they finally
erected sturdy walls that could withstand the wind. The completed building they cttlled the First Methodist Chlll'ch. A second church was added
a few years later when the Episcopalians in Cheyenne, having decided to

HISTORY OF UNION PACIFIC COAL MINES

OJ.O CARDON, TAE BEGI NNING, TO DISA PPEAH IN 1902

all living in the camp were inside or at the mine, the women and children
huddled inside, while the men, above ground, tramped back and forth with
thefr hunting rifles swung oyer their arms.
The Indians djd not raid the camp that night, but t he man they had
attacked died. A plot for his jnterment was selected and he was buried
with fitting ceremony, the first mun to die at C1irbon. Its ccmcte1·y once
established, the camp seemed to have pushed down roots. Occasionally a
trnveler, scalped by the Indians, would be added to the silent company
resting beneath the earth, and presently some of t he townspeople were
laid in the burying ground with tile strnngers-and now there was ::.on1ething more tl1un a pay check to bi11d the people to this frontier settlement.
Carbon, like the thriving, expanding tmrn it wns, begau putting out
sl10ots above ground as "'ell ns roots below. Between 1868 and H)02, when
the camp was abandoned, seven mines were opened and worked. One of
the first and most successful outgrowths of the town was th&lt;' d tlc111ent
hvo miles away where No. Four and later No. Fjve :;\lines werl' dt vcloped.
No. Four proved to be a failure, but No. Five, located on the snni,• sectio11
of Jn.11d, encountered no fnult.s. Although No. Five Mine was opt' rn t etl as
a part of the Carbon properties, it soon took on the chnrnctcr of a separate village. More than fifty Jog buildings were scattered about the m ine, including hon,es, stores, saloons, boarding houses, and office buildings.
l\fost of the miners at No. Fi-..•c wer e "Lnnkies," 11s they were called. big,
rawboned men, qujck to take offense, ns earnest at their play ns nt their
wo1·k. They had come to America from one of Englnnd's heavy coal-producing counties, Lancashire, and they were well able to handle the job
of mining in Wyoming. Sports-Jo,..-ing men, they were not long in C:\.7)]01·ing the amusement possibilities of the country-side. Hunting as a pnsttimc they discarded in sho1·t order. vVith hrn hundred to three hundred
e1k grazing in the mule pasture with the company mules a hulf mile from
the camp, shooting elk held about the same wild zest for n sportsman 11!"
shooting a Guernsey cow. As for sage chickens, a mnn coulcl find them
in boring abundance a few hundred yards outside the camp.
R acing was the mine worke1·s' fa,·ol'ite sport. One of their first actiYities after moving to No. Five Mine "·as to clear the sage brush from n,
quarter-mile stretch of prairie near the camp and call it a mcc trnck.
Hm·ses were raced there every Sunday, with young ,John and l\Iichacl
Quealy, sons of the first Carbon pit boss, perched in the big-homed
weste1:11 snddlei; ns jockeys. Second only to horse-racing in the ey&lt;'s of
the- Lancashire 111incn; was -pigeon shooting, ·with live p igeons as the ~ar·
gets. '!'hey had an infallible system for inducing a bi1:d to_fly to the r1gllt
or to the left for a shooter who shot poorly in that d1recbon. Thomas _H.
Butler, who was a boy in Carbon in those days, and who became Mme
Superintendent at Hanna, Superior, nnd Rock Springs, and later Gen~
eral Supervisor of Mines of the Company, recounts the method employed.

tent pitched on the prairie, in which a c-owboy was lymg down.

E ven bl'for c its juco rporntion as a village, the cnmp possessed to an
astonishing dt·grcc t hat quality the Fren ch call " esprit de eorp -." For
year :-- afterwards, miners who lived in old Carbon were to rc111embcr the
camp with affectiu11 and fierce loyalty . T oday, sc1tttered thrnug liout Wyoming :rnd the west, 11ssocintions of fo rmer Cnrbonitcs vi it tht• ghos t tow11
Mch year to dccornte the cemetery for old time's sake.
Ther e is evc11 ii saying about it: "Once a Carbonitc, a1wn_,· s n Carbonitc." I-Iear Sam Dickinson, of Hanrnl, who left Engl1rnd ti) c-omc ti) till'
Sweetwater country, 1111d who was clerk in Carbon 111 188G:
"There never was such n town - we ncYcr had cliriucs or fo.ctions, we wer e Carbonitcs, and if anything 11ccdcd to be done for
Carbon, w e 1111 p ulled togethc1· to do it."
The saloons of the camp, like the "poo r men's clubs'' throughout the
countr y, were ever the center of much uctiY1ty an&lt;l excitement. It was ~o
them that the cowboys from t11c adjoining &lt;·ountry would ride on ~hen·
dnys in town, and it was there that t11ey woul~ .spend all _du~· and half the

The stories told of Carbon's saloons would match the wildest of barrack-room ballads of a ny country. Even Kipling could find ra_rc cxperic-nc~s

holst.ei•ed gun, cowboy would face miner acr~ss ~he dim room, tl~1ck_w1th
smoke and the smell of hard liquor. The combmahon .of cow~oy,_ miner, and
whiskey of ten resulted in a shooting. There was no mequahty Ill the feud,
however. The town might be n mining town, but the state w3:s !: rnnge st~~~

two deputies. '£he dramatic exodus of "Dutch Chnrlie'' and of "Ilig-Noi-1
George" from the Carbon vicinity illustrates one of the pri11ci pal n •nso11,;
why it was quite a s safe to handl: the big puy rolls a s if the. m,oncy bugs
contained canned beans. It e:-..7Jlams why D. O. Clark, a ~ chief r le1·k for
the Wyoming Coal and Mining Company , ,rould ~cnrlessly C'u rry nn entire
month's pay roll in the safe in his business car durmg Curbon's early years,
and why he parceled out that $150,000 and more to the miner s from the
car's rear platform unguarded. A train-robber might pla1~ t~ buck the
law aod dare the skill of pursuing officers, but what man lll l11s ngbt sen~es
would proYokc the fury of this mob of miners? No, the pay roll was qmte
sufr. The car could remain on the sidotraek a week u11d still be undisturbed.
Its security rested with the long, patient line of n.1incrs, en.ch man waiting
for the pr(ce of a month spent underground,_ a month ~•ith pick and shovel
and a miner's dim light. These men wc1'e theu· mm police.
Clark never had, it is said, to ask a miner's name; he knew them all.
But he did not ca11 them by their first names as he dealt ou~ their pay envelopes, 11or did they call him by his. H e was "Mr. Clark" to everybody.

The me~ hu.d &lt;l:ep respect for him,_ and when he dropped the heavy envelopes mto their palms they knew 1t was unnecessary to count the gold
pieces that made up their wages. Clark invariably gave them the !•jght
umount t? the penny. ~n later yc~rs Clark did not bring the pay in person,
but sent 1t out by t ram. The tram crews would dump the money sacks on
tlic depot platform, from whence they would be picked up by the store
d crk a ud hnulcd in a wngon along the tortuous road that wound from the
tkµ&lt;,l , &lt;lodging the holes where old mine workings had caved. The sacks
were liandlecl as casually as chunks of coal; one sack was lost one winter
evening in a snowbank on the platform, and was found the next morning
ns a miner shuffletl through this same snowbank.
A contemporary worker of D. 0. Clark, who, like Clark, wu.s to become ,t power ,i n the company, was E . E. Calvin, at that time telegraph
opcrnror tni d dep ot agent at Carbon. As a young man in Carbon, Calvin
was libcrnlly endowed with a fund of vitality, and with that particu1ux
kind of ingcnnity tha t can make 11 practical joker terrifying to his friends.
l11 spite of ll1c fa ct that he was perfectly equipped to be a snccessful
mndcnp, Calvin h!d n serious life, working long hours, to retire as eru·ly
n-. hr could. Calvin roomed with another young man, who kept the !&gt;ame
respccl11hlc hours that lie did, but the two had a third bunkmate in their
li ,·ing quarter s, a gay and irresponsible lad who had set his mind on
1Jxtrncti11g nil the pico.sure he could out of every day and the first half of
the night. It was this fellow's custom, when his evening's fun was over,
to come merrily }1omc, storm into the bachelor gual'ters, clump across the
wooden floors, hum happily while he jerked off his clothes, and leap into
he&lt;l wi th n bounce thnt made the springs protest. His awakened C'Omrades
l'&lt; 11dd run1plain a s much a s they pleased; their grumbling went unnoticed.
ll1il ••nc ui.ght after he had bounced into bed he bounced out even moxc&gt;
&lt;1UJckly. a11d never again did he indulge in the sport of awakenjng his sleeping r oommn tcs. His Teform dated from the moment his feet 1·ollt:,g under
the l'0Vers. In the bottom of the merrymaker's bea' Calvin had thrust the
carcnss of a frozen hog.

In later years Mr. Calvin was to work his way to, the presidency of
the Union Pacific Railroad Company, later serving as Vice President of
Ope1·ntion, from which office he retired in 1928 to make his home in Los
Angeles, California. He was one of the many men who in their youth got
their sturt in Old Carbon, coming to the town when it was a mere mining
camp, and through industry, ambition and good character, coupled with
mental alertness, his future was assured from the beginning. When the
great CLl.l'thquuke and fire that devastated San Francisco came April 18th
and 19th, 1906, with its loss of 452 lives and property damage of $350,000,000, l\fr. Calvin was in charge of the Southern Pacific Railrond properties. It was on his competent and tireless shoulders that the work of resto1·ing transportation fell, to be carried out with promptitude. Dming

'1Vardell also experienced a succession of labor troubles. Many of the
men were members of the Knights of Labor, an organization thnt preceded
the United Mine "Worke1·s of America, with T. V. Powderly later becoming
its national president. Several strikes took place at Carbon, during one
of which, in 1871, the workmen deser ted the town, leaving only the storekeepers to keep the empty bujldings company. The settlement which ended
this strike p roduced only a temporary peace, for three years later another
g&lt;&gt;nr ral st rike further delayed progi-ess. In addition to having to cope
ll'ith labor problems, Wardell was finding it 1mpossible to please his superiors, the directors named by the F ederal Government to sit on the board
of the rnilroad company. The Govemment directors were firmly opposed
lo the leasing of the railroad's coal lunds to 11 private cont ractor, and in
their 11nnu11I reports they described the lease as "an inexcusable iniquity,"
chu rg i n.~ t ha l the prices the railroad paid for coal were extortionate.
,\ mong ntli,:,1· nssertious, the Government directors claimed that the leas&lt;'
l'!'i tahfo:l1l•tl a fu el monopoly in , ~lyoming, that private indivjdunh and
pro&lt;p; ,·liq• industries along t he railroad neede~ cheap fuel, that the lease
stifled cumpctition and therefore kept the price of the fuel high, and that
the- 111011opol_y should be broken so that local industries could be built, production could be sti111ulatcd, and the raih·oad could profit from an increase
in t rnHk (luc to an inc rease in business along its line.
Plagued from two sides - on t he one side by its cont ractor's labor
troubl&lt;.'s, which mnde the supply of cotd uncertain and costly. and on th&lt;'
other by tlic Government directors who desired the company to handle ih
own con] production - the railroad found its position untenable. Thus, i11
:'llnrch of 1874, the rnilroacl took over its coal properties, creating a Coal
Tkp,u·hurnt. and fo l' t he 1r11ui to head it, choosing D. 0. Clark, that stern
h11111a 11111u('l1i11e who h ud been handling his duties as chief clerk so efficientlJ.
C'l11 rb.. relievNl of his duties in Omaha, lost no time in setting out for
\\' yom1 11g to supervise per::;onnlly the trnnsfeT of all mjn.ing properties into
the hands of the rnilroad. T he only real difficulty he had in completing
the tmnsfcr was with VVardcll's brother, Jack, wJ10 was operating the
company store. Clark was unable to force him to turn the stoJ"e ovci: to
the railroad, even t hough the Wardell stores in other coal camps had been
turned over to the railroad without question.

The railroad position wus upheld in the courts when VVardell brought
suit, und witl1 the ncquisition of the Carbon store, the rnihoad found itself
in ·u ndisputed control of idl its mining properties and free to push ahead
wit.h its plans for expansion. The need for this expansion by 1880 had
become acute. The raib-ond company and the industries which were being
established along its line needed coal and they needed it without delay. The
compnnJ sent out crews to prospect and open new mines. This e}.-pansion
caused n sharp 1·isc in the expenditure of t.hc Coal Department, but, d&lt;&gt;spite
this increase. the price of coal t o consumers was reduced t wenty-three
cents a ton. Referring to the price adjust,mt'nt in hi~ rcµort for 1880, thf'

''Reali:bing the fact that cheap fuel is an important clement in
the development of mining and manufacturing interes ts, us well a s
1117riculturnl interests, in u. section of the country where wood is cxp:nsive, the company has adopted the policy of furni shing coal to

of mining and transportation."
1\Iine No. Three, opened on the same seam a s No . One, had been
ttbundoncd. Some years before the workers had moved to town from tht
:.ite of abandoned Mine No. Four and the worked-out l\Iinc No. Ji'iYe. In
1890 Mine No. Six wns worked out and abundoned, leaving only :\'line No.
Two, which hnd been opened in 1868 by John A. Creighton, of Omaha,
nnd later tukcn over by ' '' nrdell. John A. Creighton laid the found a ti 011
of a grea_t fortun e in the carrying out of const r uction con t rn.ct:s, in clndi,1g

Crcighton had dug straight into the seam where it c ropped ou1 of the
ground, going forward severnl hundred feet on thl' lcYel hdorc lie t urned
to follow the nip of the coal. Mules hauled the coal cnr:-: 1q, the slopes, one

out on the level entry. B egun at the same time ns 1Vardell' i" ~ o. One :\ line,
No. Two mine proved to be the longest lived of ull the Cn rbon openings.
At one time it was tempornrily abandoned! but in 1886 a sys tem of trncks
was Jaid in the mine, a new surface plant was put in pln&lt;'c. and the mim'
continued producing heavily until 1890. At that time 1H~1r diffic1dties wc1·c
encountered. Concerning these difficulties, Superintendent G. lV. Megen-th
of the Coal Department, said in his report for the year 18!)]:
"On o.ccount of crowding the output during the winter of 1890
and 18~)1, the working places for men were becoming wr_v scarce.
The fl eld to the southwest of this mine hnving been pron)n nearly
worthless in the face of the workings extending in thnt direction,
nnd the field to the south hnxing also been found in the same condition, it became necessnr_v citl;er to find some good con] in t.he
southeastC&gt;rlv direction or to abandon the mine in the course of a
ven1·. Durin;,. ,Julv n drill hole was put down nnd n vein seven fort
;tnd six incl~es tl~ick was found, and the life of the mine bv this
find has been ex.tended about three years, the coal found being on
a. dip necessitating putting in an engine to hoist the same inside
the mine."
No. Two 1\fine ('Ont inued to be the onh· mine in the town until 1899,
when No. Se,·cn wns opened. The coal in N'o. Two.was _beginni~g to pln._v
out and the coal in No. Seven was found to be of 111fer101· quality. In the
same year that No. Seven Mine was opened, the railroad sm·veyors found

u 11 easier grade for their main line tracks than the one passing through
Carbon, the new line leading through Hanna. Previously the coal mined
at Hanna ha&lt;l been hauled on a spur track to Carbon. In this year the new
line w1ts established a nd Ranna was placed on the main line and Carbon
found itself on a spur. While with the old and heavy grade it had been
necei;sury to keep a helper engine at Carbon to assist the regular engines
to pull their trnins up Simpson Hill, no helper engine was needed at H annn.
Knvwin &lt;r that the days of Carbon we1·e numbered, the company offe red its C111bon miners 1votk in other oi the Company mines, and· many
of the men accepted, moving their families to Hanna 1tnd Rock Springs.
Qt.hers refused to believe that the Carbon field could be playing out, nnd
made str enuous efforts to have the railroad's main line brought bacl, to
t heir bdo\'rd ~own. Carbon's loyal sons could not realize that the same
lit·t h• to,1r1 " -n~ nc[u·ing its last days. The company operated No. Seven
)I inr until ii:, l'Oal became of suol1 poor quality that it would not maintain
st eam in llll' loromoti\'c boilers. Prospecting had shown no other good mine
locntion:,,. and the a rea Imel been prond to be full of bad faults, which
made it expensive to mine even good coal.

?{o. Two Mine sunk by Creighton wns closed in 1900, and No. Seven;
the lust mine. was closed two years later. Althotlgh Carbon had officially
lil'l'Ol11C H ''ghos t town" with the closing of her last mine, several of the
towo:&lt;pcople clung to their homes nnd to their memories of the busy, boisterou:s days of the seventies and eighties. They decided to live on theix savings until the rnilrnad should come back. John MiJliken and his family
sta vecl on after 1111 the others had deserted the town, but an occasional
shc~plwrdcr or trnveler wn,s his only customer. At length even Milliken

'' ' \Yhy don't you use our surgeon?'
"'Brjng him over here, quick,' was the rep ly. 'lVe didn 't
know you had u surgeon in your party.I
"\VelJ, I fixed the man up - and let me t ell You he 11·n~ in bad
shape when I r~ached him, but I made n. nent ,fob of it and that
rn~de me feel mighty good. As a consequence, that nl'xt night the
mmer s got t~gethcl' and held a meeting. ,-l 'he_y sent a committ&lt;-'c t o
tell me they liked my work and ,vould fix. me up l'io·ht if I would stn y
there. I 1·eplied that I didn't intend to rcmuiu in tl1e \Vest only 1011 ;,.
enough to recoYer from past 01·crwork, and the verr most I ·would
do would be to sign a six months' contrnct, with the· undcrst:;inding
that I probably wouldn't stay there after it expired. Well, sir, the
upsl1ot was that they accepted my conditions. I went on to Green
lliver, from thel'C back to Lan&lt;l~r, and again to Rock Springs,
where I started to work the first of X ovembcl', 1880. ) 1 v intention
had bc1.:n to stit)' there six months. I remained ten vc:1trs as resident
surgeon for the Union Pacific Railroad Cami&gt;anv
.
. and it&lt;.
mmcrs.
"In addition to my work ns surgeon for Hit' l ' nio n P ocjfic, I
soon became rnedical exnminer for the Bankers Lifr Association.
an insul'unce company of Des Moines, Iowa, and still luter was
appointed medical exnminc1· for the .Koi-thwestcm Masonic Aid
Association. In 1882 or 1883 I was elected superintendent of
schools for Sweetwater County. At that time Sweetwater County
e_xtcnded nearly n.cross the state - or rather territory-of "ryoming, and took in what is now Sweebrnte1· and Fremont Counties.
The ,~ryoming Commissioners of Pharmacy was organized on Mny
10, 1886, with myself elected as fil'st chairman of the ol'ganizntion
and Fred P. Shannon as secretary. In August, 1886, I took the
examination aud became a registel'ed pharmacist. There arc still
some of the prl'scriptio11 blanks of the Central Drug Store of Rock
Springs - ,J. ·w. Gates, proprietor - in my old medical case.

" As I mentioned before, the 11eurcsl physician lived in Rawlins.
.H e 111nJe occasion1tl l'isits to Rock Springs to cal'C for the sick
,rnd was cullc&lt;l l&lt;&gt; u ttcnd the more serious cases, there being no doctor there before I came. \Vhen this gentlem1111 heard the miners, in
ctmjunctio11 with the companies, hU;d hired me, he came rigH to
town, hunted lll L' up and sta rted to misc hell. H e said .I wns poadiin rr on hi s ~l•rri~o r r, 1t11d I'd ha1·e to get out or he'd have me nm
fJl~ - 'l'hu t oinde md p retty mad. I told him I didn't consider it consistent wit h professional ethics fol' one doctor to trc1tt another as
he was doing, thut this wn.~ virgin territo1·y open to all comers,
that it wus not my intention to make this my home pcl'muncntly,
but that 11 0 man tould run me o ut uf t()wn, un&lt;l ns long as I Wll.-S
there I intended to '111:tkc good.' So t he doctor went out, hunted up
some of Iii:" l'ri~Hds n111ong t he 1\Iolly :Maguires and uskcd them to
help him ru11 ·tlml l'cnde1·foot doct or out of town.' As a consequence, for sonic li ttle time I wa_s the object of threats nnd attempted jntimidations by the group whose aid the doctor had en ·
listed. F ur i1i-..t11nrc, mw morning I was forced to use m_v gun to
chuse two big, IJ1·u11·11y Scotchmen, brothers, out of my office.
.Another time 1.1 rnw of ':\Iollys' were sitting on an embankment just
ncro,;s the ,fr1·et (ro1 11 tlw front door of my office. A new n1lc or
h1w hatl r l'ccnLly gone inl'o dfott mu.king it. impossible to get any

began betti11g they could get one from me, and finally one of their
m1111bcr wn:,; told to 'Go get a prcscriptio11 ft-0111 that tenderfoot
doctor.'
HJ was ready for tl1c fellow with my gun ni; soon ns hewn lkccl

him there t'o l' a couple of hours, witl1 the men on the e1n.bnnkment

t'ompauions jeered and ridiculed him plenty. They kept it up, too,
so l10t and heavy thn.t before they got through he hnd to lenve
town. Ami still another time n man cnmc in demnnding his money
because Ill' had 11ot uecded my seJ·viccs. I l'cfusccl to give it to him.
H e said:
"'That's all l'ight, Doc. I see you going out of here at nll

the opl•n saloon conti nued to compete with the gambling den for the dollars tha t the mother,- of little chi ldren needed for food and clothing, and
up "011 thC' hill" the noise of n rickety piano joined with the obscenity of

But there is one unique blot in R ock Springs' pnst that is solely nnd
wholly her own, r eminding her of 11. day of violence and black injm;tice,
when the blood of innocent men soaked her soil nnd the stench of burning
flesh rose from smoking ruins. Thn.t day is ,vcdnesdny, September 2,
1885, t he day of the Chinese riot and massncr e.
Chinese workmen, who were to be t he focal point for so much bitterness nnd ~n,Lth on the part of the white miners, were not br ought to the
town until Novemb~r of 1875. A s is to be e:irpectcd, many rumors have

Railroad chose to import the Chinese. The following account written by

the matter, and report their decision to him in t he cvrning. A mcd ing of the miners' union, The Knights of Lahor, was culled, ancl
after n lengthy discussion it was decided to dl•clinc i.\lt·. Clark's

Clark obtained his laborers through Beckwith, Quinn and Company.
whose main offices were located in Evanston, and who operated general
stores in all the railroad company's various coal towns. The agreement
under which the store had functioned at Carbon was the same n.s that
by which it was run in Rock Springs. The store did not pretend Jo be
the official Union Pacific Railroad store, but merely had an agreement
with the railroad company to handle the work of paying the mincri;' wag~s.
This arrangement proved a great convenience and economy for the railroad compan)· and at the same time established a means for the workmen
jn the mines to obtain credit nt the stores. The workmen could, if they
wished, charge goods &lt;luring the month and ha \'C the payments taken. out
of their pay. The contract for the importation of the Chinese prov1d?d

Chinnmen had begun work on their rooms, and that Whitehouse
t\nd J enkins would take the next rooms beyond them. But as the
two first rooms of t_hc entry hnd not been commenced, ,vhitehousc
took one, not kno~ving that they had been given to the Chinamen.
He went up towi~ m the n.f tcrnoon, and during his absence the two
Chinuinen came m and went to work in the room .Whitehouse had
started. \Vedne day morning when Whitehouse came to work two
('hinnmen were in possession of whnt he considered his room.
He ordc.red them ou_t, but they wouldn't leave what they thought
wns the11· r oom. High words followed, then blows. The Chinese
from oth~•r ro~nw, cnme rushin.g in, ns did t~e whites, and a fight
ensued with J&gt;.1,·k-,, . l1ovels, drills, and tampmg needles for weapons. The C'h111n111l:n were _worst~d, four of them being bndly
wounded, one- of wh om has smce died. A number of white men were
sc,·ercl)· lirni-,ed and cut. An attempt was mnde to settle the matter, bnt t hl 11w11 wt•rc exci ted, and bound to go out. They accordingly c11111c out, n rn1cd themselves with rifles, shot-guns, nnd
r&lt;'\'Oh·er ... lo proh'ct themselves from the Chinese, they said, nod
started lt p town . After coming through Chinatown·, they left
their gun, bC'hincl them. and mnrchcd down the front street, and
cli ·pei·sed uboul noon .
"In tht' meantime, nil wM excitement in Chinntown. The flag
wns hoil'&gt;t&lt;.•d a , ll warning, nnd the Chinnmcn gathered to their
quarte t" from 1111 parts of the town, being gently urged by chunks
of cont nnd hrickbn b. from a crowd of boys. After dinner all the
snloons wer e' closed. and n majority of the men from nll the mines
gathered in the st reets. Most of them had firearms, nlthough
kniYes. hntcheb,. a nd clubs were in the hnnds of some. It wns finally decideJ Hutt John must go, then and there; and the small army
of sixty o r seventy nrmed men, with as many more stragglers,
went d~wn the trn~k townrds Chinatown. On the way they routed
out n number of Chinese section men, who fled for Chinntowu, followed bv n few strnv shots. When n crowd got as for as No. Three
switch,· theY sent • forward a committee of three to warn the
Chinamen t~ lea ve in un hour. Word was sent back that they
would go, nnd very soon there was n running to and fr~, and
g athering of bundles, that showed that John was preparrng to
move out. But the men grew impatient. They thought that John
was too slow in getting out, nnd might be prepnring to d&lt;'fend
his position. I n about half nu hour nn advance was made on the
enemy's works with much shootina and shouting. The hint wns

Summed up, the grievances we1·e:
1. Thut false weights were used by which miners were defrauded of
four to five hundred pounds of coal to each car.
2. That the presence of Chinese in Rock Springs made it unsafe for
women to venture out alone.
3. That the Chinese miners were favored in the assignment of rooms
in the mines, being given rooms located for easy working.
4 . That Superintendent Tisdel sold privileges to Chinese workmen.
5. That miners were compelled to trade ut the store of Beckwith,
Quinn and Company.

On the day of this hearing a st rike was called by the miners, mine

On September 20th General A. 1\lcCook, of Fort Douglas, who hnd

the Adjutant General of the D epartment of the Platte :
"Am fully convinced t hat any attempted trial and punishment

31st, before the massacre, to 1,610 tons on November 80th. Active white
resentment of the Chinese subsided after the outburst of angry indignation in which bventy-fivc yellow men lost their lives. That number of bodies
was found. Twenty-six other Chinese had set out from Rock Springs on
foot :1c1·0 s the mountains and were ne,·cr heard from. It is popularly belicYcd that most of them died from hunger and exposure, but in all prob1tbilil_y tl,cy went to other places and other employment.
The onh· trouble that cnr arose between the races after the massacre
\I n in the Io\·m of trivial skirmishes between Chinese men and small white
boys who liked to tease them. For instance, it was customary for a group
of Chinese men, when out for a stroll, to walk in single file. If the man at
the rear harl something to say to the group, he said it to the man in front
of him who in ~urn 1·epeatcd it to the man in front of him, and so the story

Thus passed on T,no Ah Say, one of nature's noblemen."
It ,1·n::. the custom of the Ch ines&lt;! residents of Rock Springs to send
the bone.., o f all their countrymen back to China for burial. Following t he

l 'sually, 11 grnup of white boys, forgetting t he courtesies that had been
shown tl1em by the Chinese nt th&lt;! p1·cvious New Year, would make awa_v
with the food. After the body hnd been buried for a time, friends o f the
dcnd mun would disinter the remnins, scrape the bones clean, seal t hem
in rl Hu, a ir-tight can, and ship them to China.

He went t lirou"h the riot of 1885, but was sufficiently fast on his feet to
C'scnpc alive. R~turning to work after the exodus, he interested himself in
the )iYcstock of the company, worked in the company barns, studied "horse

Mr. McAuliffc sent a farewell message from New York City to the "China
boys."
Sincer e tributes were exchanged back and forth by the yellow men
an&lt;l the white. 'White men, now dignified in years, confessed the boyish
p ranks they had played many years before on these old friends. The Chilh!sc spoke theiT thanks in their own particular brand of English, but in
order ihat then: would be no mistake, they also presented a written expression of t hei1· appreciation to the unions, the company, and their other
friends. These notes were written for them by some of the younger Chinese, and the English used was quite perfect. The nine old men were
escorted on the train to San Francisco by H. J. Harrington, Superintendent of T,nbor for the company, and Frank Tallmire, the Coal Company's
A urli l c,r. One of the a musements of the white men on the trip was the loud
protestation rni.scd by Ah Sandy ove1· the spending of money for entertainment. The company
was furnishing the mon(

not one to enjoy seeing
it wasted. This little
yellow man was more
Scotcl1 than the burriest "Geordie" that ever
came out of the highlands. His true name
was not Ah Sandy. Because of his saving habits, that name had been
conferred on him by a
true Scot, Vice P1:esident Ge01·ge B. Pryde.

Joe Bow had told his Rock Springs friends that he had "batched"
long enough and that when he anived in China he e)..-pected to get a wifo
who could look after him and "cook heap plenty, pletty good." Within so:
months he sent a photograph of himself and his wife with her e1even-yearo1d son. He bad passed up the young women who might have been
"heap sassy." He had married a widow who was old enough to appreciate a

L1\1Y lms one of t he most tragic histories of nil the towns that proA

~Vyoming lrns laid down its banners, disgorged its population, un&lt;l hecome a ghost town with ns plentiful stores of coal left in its ,vomb as
AlmJ. Labor troubles aud race conflict marred the pence of t he ill-s tarred
settlement, and fi1·es and explosions helped to force tlic closino· of her
mines, when thc:v lost H1e Central Pacific Railroad Cot11 p:11rv fi~cl order
to tT1e lTtah mines.
•
The Benr Rivci· valley seemed an ideal location for nddit ion1U sources
of coal fo~· the rnilroad that wintry morning in 1868 w h1.-11 Thoma:-. Wardell, pushrng westward from Rock Springs, stumbled 011 tl,c site. The
drive to complete the rnilrond was not vet ended, a nd " ' a rdt•II was hastening to build up a uew mine settlement before all the trncks ~houlcl be

site. In February, 1869, there began the opening of thl' first mine, the
Wyoming 1\line.
•
The prospects for the new town were cxccption11lly bright. Sca1·cl•l.,·
ho.~ the miners started the first. slope before they found that they had a
thirty-foot. sea1n of coal to work. They droYe room~ twenty feet high,
halting their upward digging only whdn they cnme to a b~nd of rock.
~he town took its name from T. ,T. Almy, an early-day Superintendent
for the Roc_ky l\Iount.ain Con! C'ompan_y, which product'd coal for the
Ct'n!rnl \ac1fic Railrond in this aren. 1\1ines were opened rapidly in every

The railroad's records for 1869, the year thut the ,Almy 111i11cs were
first opened, show that this district produced 1,967 tons of conl. In the
next t en years they mined 390,068 tons, and from tha t t i111c on the production conti1111cd to incrense, like a giant snowball , unlil, a t lhe tinu•

th_rough the thick, green stand of 1~ wus buried well up to his thighs. Tlw
mmc there developed produced qmtc faYornbh· in 1881. but the future
seemed most uncertain becu.usc of 11 bad n1inc tto'or. An cxccptiona! nmount
of w~tcr made_ the fire-clay floor hca,·e, and it wus necessary to &lt;;end
men into the mmc every night to lower the bottom of the haulngewn_\s.
~umes Tisd~l, then Ge_ncrnl Superintendent of the C'onl Department,
workmg under his brother-m-luw, D. 0. Clark, Gt•ncrnl :\lanngcr, came to
Grass Creek to superintend the beginning of the mine und to direct the
expansion of the tiny settlement. The compuny built about forty houses
for its workmen and their families, the majority of whom were Scotch,
English and '\Velsh. There were also a number of Chinese working at Grass
Creek when the mine opencd, but within fiye years the Chinese Riot at R ock
Springs swt&gt;pt all the Chinese from the Yicinity in the flood of race resentment and bitterness that followed the massacre. B y the end of September,
1885, there was not a single Chinese among the miners in Grass Creek. The
Grass Creek settlement never awoke to consciousness of it self as u community, and it failed completely to eYoke uny of the loyal spirit in its

;1bilitr did 11 01 fo il h i111 to the· last. A prominent business man wrote the
follm;·ing tribu tc Io hi111 :

"As a con.I 0 1 11 rntor, bnnker, live-stock rniser, and builder,
:\I r. Quealy look fron t rn11k in his adopted stntc. Throughout his
busy life, he took a deeply acti,·c part in politics, state and national,
refusing thrnughoul the 11111113• flatte ring offers for a political
career tendered hi111 by the lenders of his party. ,Vl1ene\'el' u crisis
arose in the financial affairs of the live-stock industry of Wyoming, i\Ir. Quealy was called upon to guide the cout'se of events, and
not n stnglc failure stands ngninst his record. When a devastating
explosion swept through one of his coal mines, n.nd specious advisers otfc1·ed the suggestion that a sum running into hundreds of
H1ousands of dolln rs might. be saved by taking advantage ?f the
111'1·, Afr. Quealy sc·orned the proposition, taking the blow w1t~o.ut
n murmur, though inwardly torn with son'ow for the loss or life
sustnined."

It wa.s a far cry from the immigrant Ind with the County Clnrc

ancf richness of the hdd, the H nilrond began casting nbout for n pince i~
ll'hirh to locntc ll&lt;'\\ minl's. Through the winter of 1887 and all of the
year 1888, pro-,pcding was canied on along the route of the old main line,
which then rnn ~i,- or :-.even miles south of the present town of Hnnnn.
Two of the mc11 ~ent lo lhe arcn under the direction of the Cnrbon Superintendent, L. R. :\lc_rer, were T. 0. i\1into, Manager of the Beckwith-Quinn
Store nt Carbon, and \\'. H. Brown, who Inter became Super intendent nt
Dann. l\Iinto wnitl•d only to finish the prospecting before he returned to
the store, from which pince he was later transfcned to Rock Springs ns
~fonager of the big Deck with-Quinn general store there.
The prospectol's found an excellent scam of coal, nnd Joseph Cox
nrrived in 188!) with ol'ders from Meyer to take charge of development
,·ork. :\[r. Cox, who had previously been in charge_of th_e opening o! the
nearb)' Dnnn mine. was splendidly equipped, both m point of exper1ence
nnd in temperament, to manage a rough, new-born mining town. In _appearance he was a typical Englishman, but he hnd none ~f the En~ltshmnn's trnditional reserve to hnmper him in his dealings mth the n:irners.

of which the nir t·urrents for vcntilntion purposes were directed th rnugliout tl1c workings nnd to open the doors for the passage of lllen or cnr1-,

c:,·cr to cstubli,h hi111,elf at ~anna. The mtrnager of the company sto;~
was Gcol'gt• l&gt;(mne, a11 eccc-11tnc bachelor but a shrewd business man.
A choul huildi11g- wa:, erected that firsl year, but children were Jacking, and tltl' d,1or, n 111aincd closed for want of pupils. The most of the
residents of liunnu 11 ere ,,ingle men, and those few who were nmrrierl
maintained ho111cs n I ( ,u·bon fo r their families, ·v isiting them on week-ends.
When scliool wns npL·llcd the following ye,n, J. H. Matthews was the
teacher. Later he mmcrl to Hock Springs to take a position as principal
of the Rork Spring:, ,d10ol and wns succeeded nt Hanna by Clinton Hume.
The little frnn tc eltoolhouse that had stood deserted the first winter at
Hanna wns to be followed uy tt number of other buidings; it wns the forerunner of the sound school system which the town operates today, a system which indudes n high school course, with complete manual training
nnd gymnasium facilities.
The streets were laid out at the opening of the town with somewhat
more eon -idcrution than had been given them in the majority of other
conl towns. Inst..nd of' digging into the most convenient gulch bank to make
n dugout home, or erectina n building on the most convenient spot, the
builders laid out nn order!; scheme of streets and alleys, containing two
conccntrut ions of buildings, one near each of the mines. The mnin street
ran north of nnd parnllel to the railroad. South of the tracks the buildings
were culled No. One Catnp, nnd north of the tracks they were called No.
Two Camp, although each was a part of Hanna. Hardy workmen from
the B1·itish I sles and Finland comprised most of the population in the
early duys. D espite the severe winter and the hardsl1ips of living, they were
sc!d~m sick during these first few years. Unlike ~?st 'other newl?' fledged
mmmg towns, Hanna possessed a resident phys1cmn from the first yea1·
of her founding, in the person of Dr. Newell.
Rattlesnake Creek, about sixteen miles south of Hanna, afforded a
good water supply, but tJ1is blessing was not immediately discovered, and
for some time after the mines were first opened the workers hauled water
to the town and distributed it to the homes in banels. ·with the laying of
,~atcr pipes to the houses and the instnllation of a gravity wider l~c
sixteen miles long, the foundation was prepared for the boast that resi-

No. Two .Mine. produced 6)256,157
tons of coal, its production reachino- 2 200
tons daily during p&lt;'riods of he:vy' dernand. The original room-and-pillar system of working the coal, with the rooms
driven up the pitch, was changed to the
c,;~
panel system in 1912, by which the rooms
•v
were worked on the level because of the
heavy pitch of the scam and the desirability of undercutting the coal. Electric mining machines and drills were installed nt
c~
this time, and electric locomotives had nlrcady been placed in service. Permissible
powder und electric cap lumps were also
THOM AS H. Bun,m
adopted as safety measures because of the
presence of explosive gas in the l?w~r
entries. ·when the mine was closed finally, the. men who had worked Ill it
were transferred to No. Four Mine at lfonna, or to the mines in the. Rock
Springs field.
}.line No. One was a pathetic story of grief £or the compnny, its cmployes und their families. ,vork was progressing as usual on June 30, 1903,
with no warniug of t.he honiblc catastrophe that was almost upon ~h?m.
At ten o'clock in the mornjng people outside the mine heard 11~ ear-sphttmg
crash, which has been described as sounding like the explosion of a heavy
charge of dynamite in rock. Timber, mason ry, and earth, coal nnd rock
were catapulted from the two portals of the mine. Heavy smoke pourei
out into the air. Rescue crews sped into the mine as quickly as th ey cot~\
be organized, but the jnner workings had been caved badly and soon, "?th
the pumps stopped, water beo-an to rise in the lower reaches of t~\e m1~e.
A check revealed that one hu~dred and sixty-nine men had bee~ killed, mcluding John Battle, the For eman. It was not until the followmg Novcm=
ber that the last caved-in working had been uncovered and the laS t bod)
removed. Enrly in 1904 the mine was reopened.

agreed that no one in the mine could han: possibly sun·ivcd the two explosions, und thnt human life wus too precious to be risked in any further
attempt to rec·o,·er the bodies of the men whose liYcs had alrcndy been

Onl)' a few houses were built during the f_ew years that ~ ~1 1m~s min~
was beiuu operated. The company store provided the necc-~,.1tie.. 101· the
rcsidents°of the town. The boarding house wns operated b,v ,Jo b X ixon. In
his 1·eport for the year 1891, G. W. Megeath, Supcrintenclrnt of i he R ailrond's Coal Department, had this to say of the Daua pro pert y :
"The mine is worked by a slope wl1ich runs in a not"tlterly direction diagonally across the dip. The dip of the lop e is 1tbout
six.teen degrees, while the seam dips about twenty-six d egrees.
Length of slope, 1,300 feet; thickness of senm us mined, ,&lt;C'Ven feet.
The coal does not give satisfaction fol' domestic or s tatio na ry use,
an&lt;l has been found quite dangcTous for locomot ives on account of
its tendency to spo.1·k. The mine is thoroughly equipped with tt
standard tipple as at No. Three in Rock Springs. imd the manner
of min_ing 1~nd hoisting the cottl is the same. The cump is also equipped with sixty-two tenement houses and the madiincrv und buildings are il1 first-class condition. The total cost ()f in~prn,·ements,
$95,000. ·w11ilc the coal in t!1e bottom of the scum is getting somewhat s~1:onger, t he cha~ge 1s not marked enough t.o indicate the
p1·obab1hty of e,•er getting t~ Yery valuable article by going deeper.
Coal of a mucl_1 better quo.hty cnn be produced so much cheaper
at Hanna that it would not be economy to continue to use this con!.
Thre~ levels_ hnve ~cen turned and considcrnb1c trouble has been
cxpe!·1enced m keepmg up the top and preventing the bottom from
heaving, as the fire-clay underneath the coa1 becomes moistened.
" T h~ mutc1·ial in the _mine will be pulled out in the spring a nd
used else" here and the mine allowed to fill up. The plant wrn be
Jookcd after by a W1ttchm1111. S110uld it become necessary in the
future t~ take.coal from this point, the slope can be reopened and
new cntne;; d1:mm below the present workings. The mine has not
been wo1·ked smce lust spring."

the opening of the mi ne, 11 scam of co,i] twmt1-eight. feet thick wns found,
whid1 proved 1•1111"tinuous throughout the mme. W1tl1 a ~andstonc floor

upset the miuc'1- b1·ight prospects on New YeaL·'s mo_rning, 1~84, when
the tipple caug ht fire. burned dowry, and set the coal m the m1!1e ablaze.
,John i\IcLeitn nnd hiii son were killed in the flumes and the mme tunnel

this land, which was locntcd on the main line twenty mile~ l·a-.t o f E,•nnl&gt;ton, and began the work of developing n mine. 'l' hc scam he worked became knml"n as the Curter Ycin. Later the Cnrtcrs bccnnw interested in

land adjoining the C'nrtcr section. In Xo,·cmbcr nf thnt ycnr August
Paulson, one of the Compnny's prospectors, who had JH'eYiously pointed
out the site to the Company, was sent to Spring Yullcy with II crew of

Among the men who helped do the prcliminn 1·y work of opening the Supcrio1·
i\Jincs wns Gus Paulson, who conducted
the cnrly prospect work, later to become
;\fayor of Superior and Outside Foreman
of mines. Paulson, a genial, patient Swede,
hnd a capacity for taking infinite pnins with
l'Vcry piece of work assigned to him. The
miners said that Gus Paulson could take n
meager lunch, n pocket compass, and 11
mnp of any district, no matter how difficult
the t errain, and locate the section corners
with unerring accuracy. He had the distinc•
t ion of once refusing a raise in salary when
it wns offered to him, stating that the com·
pnny wns then paying him all that he was
worth.
During the .wars the mines hnvc been operated at Superior. the follo\\'jng men nctrd ni; Mine Superintendents: Frank A . .l\!anlcy, Willinm D.
Brcnnnn. Frnnk D nvis, Fmnk L. McCarty , T. H. Butler, John 0 . Holen,
nnd George A. Brown. The present incumbent, Brown, a native Englishman, entered the service at Hanna, ,vyoming, us o. miner and was transferred to Superior a s Mine Foreman of "C" Mine and later to Cumber·
land in the same position. He became Superintendent at Cumberlnnd nnd
wns r eturned to Superior as Superintendent soon afterwards. Brown, nn
nble ndministrntiYc and mining executive, emphasized the importance of
safety in the mines, and, under him, his personnel managed to make an enviable record, winning the Sentinels of Snfety trophy four times. This bronze
statuette, depicting an anxious mother with her child in her arms awaiting the snfc return of the husband nnd father from his day's wo1·k, is

In 1934, whc~ it be_camc evident t~rnt the coal 1·cserves contiguous to
the present ~upel'lor _~1~1es were nea~·mg exhaustion, active prospecting
was started m the v1c1111ty of the mmes. Numerous diamond drill holes
were -put down, but sufficient conl was not found in any one aren to justify
the expense of opening a new mine. Subsequently, n location for prospecting was cho en northwest of the present ''D" Mine slope entra.nce. Ilot.h
cli11n1ond drilling and su rface prospecting were carried on energetically,
ll'ith the i:esnlt that b)' t he middle of 1936 enough reliable data had been

. When the . S_upcri~r mines were opened in 1906, they were fully
equipped for 1111111ng with electric undercutting mo.chines, nnd as murh
as ninety vcr cent of the conl was recovered in this manner, only n ucgligi?'l' part being mined with picks. " 'hen the mines nt Rclinnce were opened
m HJ10, they nlso were equipped with electric undcrcutters and air punchers, the lntter being u~cd only n short time in entries. Long-wall machines
were used in No. Three Mine, llelinncc, for a short time in n certain section, but the operating results received from this method did not come
up to expectations, and it was abandoned nftcr about a ycnr. The first
undercutting mnchinc iit Hanna wns installed in No. Two i\Iinc in 1913.
Prior to that time llll coal had been shot off the solid. The svstcm of mining was changed nnd udditionnl machines installed, until n ·large pnrt of
the conl from this mine was produced by mining machines. Xo. Three l\l ine,
H nnnn, wns not particularly adapted to this method of mining. and _the
coal wo.s shot off the solid until the mine was closed. No. Four )[me:,
H unnn, wns equipped with mining machines, and nll coal was undercut, and
has continued to be recovered in this manner. Neither Cu111berlm1d nor
Spring Vallev were particularly we11 suited to mnchinc work, an&lt;l the
&lt;'oul in these ~ines was shot off the solid until their final closing.

furnaces were built. The Temnins of an old furnace, which wns of the most

too often i:1·os~ cuts were driven at too great intervals, and old workmgs
were sealed off with fiim sv eanvn.s or board stoppings, and the mnin air

the large area ncce:,;sa ry to operate them, they do not work successfully

initial installat ion were quite satisfnctory. W'ith the cnrly machines n retrnctiblc pan wns used at the focc end of the convcyo_r, but only a small

h\' bc•ttcr usage and by the substitution of fuel 01I a nd uaturnl ga:. for
1·~al.
It was ouh· when n uniform lengU1 of the working chi~· 11 11d 11 11 huudy
wage partially ~1pprox.imnting uniforn_1ity w~s t•stnblis~1ed. th~tt tl,c major
number of coul operators began to tlnnk senously of 1mp1·m rng the qunlih· of their product and reducing the cost of production thrnu gh 111eclrnnir.1~tio11. The concentration of wage negotintions in the Appulachia n Field,
which took place in 193-}, nnd which yet continues, crcnll'd a rd u rn to
the older forni of coal lubor politics, the promotion of coal ~torngc: Io co\'er
a possible strike nnd suspension of production, with fl prolonged talking
11111td1. whieh ended without gain to either side when the stora~c piles were
upproud1ing exhnustion. ,Vhile this tnkc-us-nowhcrc progrnm was being
enrried on, the management of The l'nion Pacific Coal Company undt'l'took to rnl'chnniie its mines gradually and without enforced reduction of
manpower, reducing its unit costs and increasing its percentage of extruction, building up simultaneously a happier, safer working. and more contented dnss of workers. Looking backward, it is now clcnrh· c,·ideut that
the nwthoc!s of mining 1tnd the cost of prnductiun tl11lt go~•crncd twenty
years ugo m the Compuny':- mines would, if continued, lun·e led to an even
greatl'r shift from coal to fuel oil by the raihoud company. As bud ns it
w~s to lose the Oregon nn&lt;l Washington sections of the rnihoad to fuel oil,
sbll further .t!·ansitions would ha,·e pro,·ed profitnblc to the Uailroa&lt;l if
the old cond1tums had been continued.
. One of the Ycry real advantages th,tt hns come out uf the mcchani;w..tion of the Coul Company's mfoes is that of the increased cxtrnction sccui·ed per ucre, of mineral in place. In 1900 the cxtrndion did not exceed
forty per cent; today it nverugl's in C..\':cess of eighty per cent, a clear gain
0
one hundred per cent. In certain mines the avernge extraction e.."\'.cceds
innctyyer cent. An increase of one hundred per cent cnn therefore: be conscf•r,·a~•~·cly cl:-timcd. There is, however Yet room fo1· an r,·en higher increase

Tells of early-day o~/~cials, the '!'~n who, without geological maps or
reports, sought out pronnsi~g coal mrnmg locations, who lived on the tree•
less wind-swept deserts, witlwut water that was acceptable for domestic
or ;team-making us_e, with_ no _reservo~r of labor to draw upon, even contending with the wily Indian in opening Old Carbon, and who withal developed the ~oal tha~ was necessary. to a transcontinental railway and a
rapidly seuhng empire; rnen who lived, worked and laughed through it
all rnen u•hose nnmes should be carved in stone as an inspiration to those
of'a later gcnf'T11tio 11. _who now b~ild 011 a foun1ation of 11ision, couragP.

be trnnsfcrred without loss of efficiency to any number of others. Indeed

by 11 10110· series of promotions through e,·ery

'l'imcrs. TJ1c Old Timers did not dispute hi~ word, but they knew better
just the same. Not u. member? Why Mr. McAu1iffe was the association's
~od-fothcr ! \ i\1ithout his initiative there
~-ould httve been 110 Old Timers' Association
ut rtll. There would have been no hnndsome,
brick Old Timers' Building, no year l_y meetings where t hese men nnd women who came
tu the count r y when it was new and unb-ied
could relive the &lt;lays of long u.go and find
nguin I he friendships of their youth.
.At the first organizu tion meeting of
the Old Timer s, bcld on June 13, 1925, the
1111m cs of two h undred 1111d si.xty-ninc men
who lu1d ,,.c•rvcd I he company and its p1·e&lt;lccessors for p(•t'iods ranging from twenty
to fifty ycnrs were placed on the regist.rnlio11 roll. E ,td1 mnn wore a bndgr pinned

Jom'I McTEE, Sn.
thut had passed out of existence years ago,
und which hu&lt;l passed ovcl' into the limbo of
"gho::t towns." Jnmcs :Moon , whose service had extended over a period
of half a century, wus dected the first president of the association -other
officers were Robert Cardwell, vice president; Charles P . H' assung, sec1·ctan•-trcasun:r; and 'l'homas Cook, J olrn Doak, J amcs .Besso, George
P. \Vilde, Charles :Wforgnn, Joseph l\ililler, Sr., u.nd Jolin McTce, Sr.,
members of the board of directors. In his speech of acceptance du ring the
banquet Mr. Moon struck the keynote of the organization's celebration, u.
keynote that has held true w:ith c&gt;very succeeding celebrn.tion, when he
said:
"The g1·eatest joy tbut bus come to me has been the mcl·ting
with my old friends, many of whom I had not seen for thirty
years."
Later Mr. McAuliffe was to express the same sentiment, when he told
the men,
''1 know thu.t it is 'Jim' or 'Sam' or 'B ill' whom you worked
with and lived with in the years that are gone, that is the magnet.
that pulls your heart strings, and I hope it will always be so.~'
The association has made great strides each year, not only in increased membership, but also in increased significance to its members. The
coal company in 1929 built the finest auditorium in weste1·n vVyoming for
the Association's annual meetings in Rock Springs, and the building has
come to mean so much to the Old Timers that ii number of them asked to
have their burial services conducted in "thei1· building." The association
itself has become inc..xtricably bound up in the sentiments of the. men who

~onsistcntly labors to discharge :ts part
nf this obligation, both in its support of

66THE min~trcl:;y of the coal mi11er, whil~ t~ne~ to a minor-~~.\', does
ut times convey u measure of bumor, I resident i\l cAul 11l c wrote
in "The Romance and Tragedy of Coal." About t he lJUllLS of Southem
Wyoming hus grown up a weulth 0£ anecdote an? ~tory, itmoun Hng to a
sort of folk lo1·c of the underground, and contu1nrng, a s .\Ir. :.\lcAullifo
pointccl out, u measure of humor. A full measure it is, a mca \u·e heaped
and ornrflowing. There urc the stories of the Scot, t old i_n &lt;lialcct, and U1e
stories of the Chinese and the sto1·ics of the 'W elshman, ,rncl. in a class by
itsc_lf, there arc the stories of the inimitable Justice P iltrick Clancy.
So mnuy things l1uvc been said about the Justice in the ycnrs that
came niter his deuth, that he has assumed the proportions of a lcgenduTy

figure, ttnd it would be as difficult to vouch fo1· t he trnth of the -incidents
told about him as it would be to prow that St. Patrick did not d1·ivc the
snakes out of Ireland. In the shuffle of the years the nnmc of the small
mining community where "Judge Pat" presided us Justice of the P ence
luts been lost, and cYen the description of how he looked but he must
have bcc_n a strapping big Irishmtrn witl1 the stamp of E;.in full ou his
face, and he_ n~ust have lived in Southern ,vyoming becuuse it is then• thnt
tl~e most mmme'i ~omn:iunities claim him. Under Judge Pat's g enial Irish
e) e ~1 host of difficulties were settled, both in and out of con rt, for the
Justice 11' 11S not one to confine himself to the courtroom in his role of nrbit~r, nud i~ n miner came to hjm with u problem, the Justice would willingly
pick up !us hat and saunter off to the scene of trouble.

Another story is told where the situation wus reversed this fm
la_ndlord. being the plaintiff _and n tenant_ the dcf~udant. Tiic tcn:nt: :
widow WJth several small children, was bemg sued for eviction. Pat had
previomdy see~ the County Commissioners and made anangernents foi·
the payment o~ t he r ent. ,Vhcn the case came to trial, Pat listened gravely
to all f he tesbmon.y, a ud made. the following decision, "Lady, you cnn
sta_y in that house ,Just as long as you want to, and no one can put you
out." T lw hiwycrs fo r the plaint iff made serious objections to this rnling,
asking the Judge where he found any law to justify such a strange decision . .Judge J&gt;,tt replied, " That's a law of my own, which I keep for just
such emergen cies us tliis."
TJ1e Iri h judge was respected by eve.ryone in the mining town, but
cspeciall_y l,_r the Cbjnese, who were frequently brought before him for
min or infrudion ... a nd w!to, in consequence, had every 1·eason to want to
keep on good t el'1ns with him. ~hey 1r~re very cure!ul that no action of
thcirs or of uoy member of thcu· fonuly should n~ront th~ Judge, und
this feeling extcutk·cl c1·en t o the dogs. On one occus10n a Chmese severely

In the lazy summer time,
A little opera tukes place with the town

As the ltunds of the clock reach the hour of four
It'1 u cue for the opera to begin.

Comes the rich baritone of the Central
Blaring forth one long blast and n short one,
J.ctting ull know that the mine will
Again rob Mother Earth of her black power on the morrow.
"Blairtown next blazes forth tl fine tenor Yoice

of mcc and t~ngue i,wolved, but whatever the variety we have the authority
of that dour old Scot, Thomas Cnrlyle, that "humor has justly been reanrdcd ns the fi11est perfection of poetic genius." The gentle Chinese were

with t.hc a.id of l\frs. James Tisdale and Mrs. Alice Kicrle, orgam1.cd a
Sunday School. conducting classes in the little one-room schoolhouse until
the erection of the chmch in 1882. The Sunday School expressed t he
nnxi1:I I' o f th&lt;' townspeople to have a contact with the church, and the
;Uissiu.uarv Sol·ietr was not: slow to r ecognize this. In 1881 the Missionary
Socid 1· s1.:"11t lhe Rev. George L . Smith to Rock Springs to make a hnuseto-)1111;,,,, &lt;·n nvass in o rder to fincl out how many would be willing to support

J i\;con-red nnd the l1nion Congregn.tionnl Chm·ch was cstablis~ed on Sept ember Hi. 1881. After o rg,rnizing the chmch t he Rev. l\fr. Smith r eturned
tu his hollll' in ~ln:s,rnchnsetts to solicit funds for a building. H e found
lllO l'&lt;..' lliau Hit fuud,-, he found a bride. W'ith the money and his young wife,
he hastened bat·k t.o Rock Springs to begin the task of erecting tlie chur~h.
The members of the church and its friends volunteered to help the rnmisk1· in the co11strnction work, and t he church 11·as soon finished. The

Condit ions in the pioneer town were hard and it was easy fo1· n minister to become discou raged. ;Money poured into the gambling houses nnd
saloons in larg-c qua ntities, while it merely dribbled into the chu~·ch coffers in nickels and dimes. During periods ,vhen the church was without a

At some time in the course of the years the parish again took the
name of the Church of the Holy Communion, _given the mihssion before_ the
building of the church, and it is known by tlns name at t e present_ tn_ne.
Some years ago the foundations for a larger and more modern buildmg
were laid, though but little of building was done fo~· a number _of year~.
HoweYer during 1938, the erection of the new buildrng was agam Tes~1mcd, und :s this chapter is written it is moving toward ultimate complehon.
The history of church orga.nirntion at Hanna, under the contin1;1ing
tare and sacrifice of two generations of Christian 1?en o.n_d women., m a
sense pnrullcls that of Rock Springs. To th~ Methodist Ep1sc~pal denomination is deserving t he credit for conductmg the first orgamzed church
services in H am111. Tl! the beginning the working forces at Hanna w~re
pnrtinll? rcsirlcnt at C'arbo_n whic_h \\~as lo_ath to yicl~ its place as a mmina- ccnh-r to t he new location, H11s situation o.ccountmg for ma11y of the
ca~ly trials experienced in buiJding and regularly maintaining church services.
In 1 '$&gt;0, llw first Methodist Episcopal church meetings were held in
tht T"ninn Pacific Ridlrna&lt;l depot, then located east of the present depot
site. Tlw scn ·icc were held by R ev. Benjamin Young, who came from Carbon onl'e a month. The wniting room of the depot proved .inade&lt;)uate to
ru-cm1rn10&lt;lnte the a:ttcndunce, and a movement was started to build a
church.
In the fall of 1890 the local staff of The Union Paci6c Coal Company
at Hanna presented to The Union Pacific Coal Company officials a request
for help toward con:-trncting a building to be used as a clrnrch. This suggestion met. with approval, and land for the new bnilding was -provided.
Through donations of mt1.te1·ial made by r.rhe Union Pacific Coal Company,
and labor donated by the men of the community, the building was completed in the fall of 1891.
In July, 19241 plans were made for the erection of a new church which
1rns made necessary by increased membership. During the time that the
new church wns being erected, church services were held in Linden's hall,
whit'h was locntcd where the present Community Building now stands. The
ne"· churcl1 building was dedicated on Sunday, May 17, 1925, Bis11op
Charle:; I. Mead officiating, assisted by Rev. Edwin Dowling, District Superintendent, and Rev. Orman C. King, pastor of the new church.

In 1912 the original First Aid Contest in the mining ficld was hdd
for the men who hud been trained at Rock Springs, a gold meda l, donated
by the l\fo1e Superintenden~, being tl~e first prize. 'fhj~ medal was won by
No. Seven .Mine, Rock Sprmgs, and is doubtless uow u1 the possession of
some of the curl)' First Aid ,~orkcrs. The contes~ provoked such response
that it wus thought worth while t,o m_u ke t he mcetmg an an11ual affair, un&lt;l
n First Aid Field Day was anangcd to be held in R ock Springs, durinothe summer months. The old " First Aid Park" north of the ptescnt G en~

At this time, however, ll new hand was taking over The Union Pacific

sufety p roblem and 11 new firmn ess and energy in carrying out the company's pluns. H e did not at once find it way to reduce accident s. Indeed
his cx pel'iments in that direction did not bear fruit for some time, but the
~nfcty pl'Ogrnm whol&gt;c foundation he laid then was to prove an epochmaking ndiicvcmcnt in mine safety. One of h is fil'st moves was to assign

to put 11 µrcmium on safety, n prcnnum th at no mmcr could nffo i·d to
ignore.
.
The Union Pacific Coal Company plunged mto an orgy of prizegiving, under Mr. McAu!iffe's g_uid~nce. 'l~hey began by awanling pl'izes
to members of the fo1·ces m tbc J1stncts which worked the g reatest nurubci·
of mun-shifts 1Jer accidc11t each year, these first prizes tak ing the fo rlll of
watches, the men themselves voting who should receive the awa rds. It wns
difficult, howc\'C:r, to keep tl1c clement of p olitics out of this sys tem of
awards, and it was later abandoned. To the foreman making the best accident records in their mines silverwrne, oil puintings and cit her p rizes

one hw1dred -volumes of selected fiction for th e men employed in tltt, min e
making the best safety showing. Pennants were U.\\' arded fol' ,,u tshnding
safety perfornurnce. These banners would go to the top o f the ilngpolc
a nd fl y for a few days 01· weeks, thereafter mysteriou ,]y clisuvpcarino. In
spite_ of all ~his the same apatl1etic attitude continued to exist \, ith regard
to mmc 11cc1dcnts. On F ebruary 15, 1930, l\fr. V. 0. Murray w 11-s emoloyed

were u.warclcJ as first and second g rnnd prizes the first year. The following
year l\lr. Lawrence Znjcc ~tnd Mr. John Tomich, both of Superior "C"
Mine, each won an 11uto111obrlc. For t he year 1933 only one automobile was
given, the price of the sec?nd autor_n~bile b;ing divided ~nto nine cash
prizes, so that more men might p articipate. fhe 11utomob1lc was won by
:Mr. ,villinm Dicu, of S uperior "C" Mine. Fol' 1934 t his same system was
followed, 1Vfr. Osca r Lindroos, of Reliance No. l Mine, being the winnc1·
o f t he cnr. The Company's P1·csident was on t he r ig ht track, and he continued to pour money in to his safety program, and to preach through the
Employc:-:' }!n.gazi.ne that "A Carefu l 1\:Iiner is the Best Safety Device."
It wns his lmttlc cry.

i11 Hl3n a -&lt;Yslcm oi monthly cash awards was established. These consisted
of I ltt'cc pri1.cs, $ 15.00, $10.00 and $5.00 for the men, ~nd $10.00 foT ~he

In Conclusion
r

After rending the sc\'ernl chapters of the History of the nion Pncific
mines, it seems only naturnl to _lo_ok bnc~ o,·er the ccntul'y that hn~ cliip:-.ld
since most of those who participated in the de\'elopnie11t of the cnl'lit•r
mines "·ere born, indeed, many of the men nn&lt;l wo111e11 who wo1·kt,cJ and
lived nt Cnrbon nnd R ock Springs were more than twenty-eight ,ven rs of
age when they came to the property in 1868, M'Ve11ty- two yc,11·11 ago.
Geneml l ' lys;,es S. Grant was elected P 1·csidcnt of tl11 Cnilt•d Stntc:-.
in 1868, the old~st of six children, the son of n t11nner. wl111 nfl1·1· a checkcreel c1ueer in und out of the nrmy, wns made Lieutennnt ncnl rnl, recci\'ing Genernl Robert~- L ee's surrender 1~t .Appoma~ox, \i '.·g-inia. on_ April
9, 1865. The population of the whole U111ted State~ 111 18G~. npprox1mutcd
36,857,627. In 1870, two years after the mines at Cn1hon und Rock
Springs were open eel, the first Federal census showed bu t 9, 11 persons
other th,m Indians residents in the entire tcnitory of ·rr~·oming.
Seventy-two years ugo life wns, as mensured by the ,,.1ancl:nds of todo.y, rnther primitiYe. Cnndlcs nnd the kerosene lump were tlw t·o111111on illuminants. Electricity had o.s yet not been mndc mnn's :-cn ·ant, nn&lt;l wives
and mothers knitted socks 11nd mittens, und made not only the dresses nncl
underweo.r worn by themselves 11nd their children, but frc-qucntly fashioned
the clothes worn by their husbands.
The method of trnnsport used until the rnilrond nppcared was the
ox 01· hori;c-druwn wngon, o. slow and wcurisome one, the pioneers too frequently humsscd by savage Indians nncl predatory white:.. On these Ion~
journeys, chiJdrcn were born and died, nnd only the strong c1nrictl through.
Doctors and medicines were unknown luxuries nnd while frequently without formnl church services, the musi; of the people hnd an ubiding foith in
their God, preserving an clement of charity and decency thruughout tlll•ir
bitter vicissitudes.

hcn these men and women cnmc they set about Cl'cnting some s~rt
of shelter. Br,n·ing the burning winds of summer and the shrieking bhziurds of winh•r, their _qu1u·te1·s were too frequently hopelessly crnm~cd and
poorly hcntt•d, and ,nth only the most meagre fumitu1·e and utensils. Depcndt•nt wholly on their own resourccs for amusement, they mndc the moS t
of their opportunity, the sick nnd spet·ially distressed ev~r the recipients
o~ ki11clly syn~1mthy and help. r.rhcrc never ,;·us a primitive community th/\t
di&lt;l not cuntu111 n woman who unconscious!, took lcndcrship in the finer and
11iost 111issrcl things of life. i\lentio11 is 111~de in this Histor~' of just such

Only_ t,hosc_ who suw sc1·~icc in the mines of t_hc old days can apprecink the difficulties under wluch conl wus then mined nnd brought to the
su rf11t•c. Cutting the con) with hand picks (a now lost art), drilling with
the c·rude back-brcnking nugcn; of that day, shooting with blnck powder
nnd :-quibs, thcrcuftcr bringing the coal to the sul'fnce in diminutive cars,
woodt•n rnils used in rooms and animal hnulage throughout, until distance
1111d grndc made n powc1· hoist necessary. Both hoist o.nd boiler room cqu!pllll'lll wu-. usunlly madcquntc, and the low pressure steam that was cnrr1c_d

the story such as it is. There is, however, one man whose Jong connection
with the p ropcl't_y made it possible for him more than any othcl' to supply
much that was history. Mr. George B. P l'yde, who w·ould not write his own
sto ry, contributed more than ilny other person to t he task. In 1968, only
twenty-eight years a1rny, a centu ry of operation will have passed, and
doubtless there will be at t hat time men and women who will feel p roud to
complete the t hen century-old History of t he U nion Pacific mines.
B efore closing, the names of two others who have throughout the
pat1t twenly years, mudc it possible by their sympathetic help and understamlino-, to bring the property up to its present standing should be
mcnLio1~d. l\Ir. Curl R. Gray who came to the Railroad on January 1,
1920, and who passed away while serving the Railroad as Vice Chairman
of jt-; B on r&lt;l of D irectors on May 9, 1939, was the first of these. Mr. Gray
add re Sc,;{l the Old Timc1·s' Association at Rock Springs on June 11, 1932.
The second man to whom much is indebted is Mr. VV. M. Jeffers, who succeeded i\lr. Gray as Prcsideut of the Railroad on O_ctober 1, 1938. ~fr.
J eff,: rs nl o addressed the Old Timers at Rock Spnngs at the Reunion
held June 17, 1939. It is the standard of service set by these two men that
ha sen ·ccl to inspire the mcmagemcnt of the Coal Company throughout.
To all our cmployes, old and young, far and near, 11:nd to th~ army
of men scattered th roughout the west who once worked m the mmes we
send our combined greetings.

)foon, age 77, who is the oldest living cmploye of the company in point
of service ll'ith a total working and pension p eriod of 55 years. I only hope
that he will be with us for at least 45 more years, rounding out a century
of service. The otherperson I refer to is Miss Mary Taylor, our only lady
Old Timer, a lady whom y ou a ll know and love, and who, with n singing
heart, has kept herself young in body and soul.
You ha,·e witnessed the laying of the cornerstone with the attendant
ceremonies, conducted by the oldest and most honored fraternal organization that exists, and which many of you, with myself, feel it a n honor to be
member s of. The bricks that have been laid by t he operative C'nlftsmcn
in the walls of this building, as you can see, were laid squa re and tr ue.
They were laid to carry thefr burden well and faithfully. The mortt, r in
whfoh they wer e laid was meant to bind them together for genel'fltio11:&lt; to
come. J ust so with the foundation and the walls of the Old Timer s Association laid fh-e years ago; to help make your burdens lighter u.nd to bind
you together regardless of race or r eligion in t rue fellowship.
With the completion of this building, whose cornerstone bt&lt;a r.; the
name of the Old Timers Association, and which you will enter for t he first
time on July 20th next, it is my sincere wish that each of you, who a re
the O1d Timers of today, mny li, 1e t o use and enjoy this, your building,
for many years to come. It is not my privilege to be n member of your Association, I came among you t oo lnte for membership, but we who a rc cha rged
with the diTection of the property, respect and admire you for you r _yen rs
of loyal service, and we will, as in the past, continue to bend our ener gies
toward making your employment as comfortable and a s remunei-nti \·~ a s
possible. That all the years a head of you, se,·erully a nd collectivcl&gt;·· mn:y be
happy ones is my most enrnest wish.

ADDRESS OF ACCEPTANCE
B y John P. ,vhite, International Represent ative,

I am glad of the opportunity of participating iii. the exercises hel&lt;I
here today. The building for which these exercises are conducted will
represent something very fine. Splendid as the building "·ill be from 11.n
architectura1 f!.nd material standpoint, these considerations will be eclipsed
what might be termed the spiritual significance of the structure. For
1£ hu~e m_iderstood aright the purpose which is to bring this building into
bemg, i t will be no mere pile of stone, no ordinary structure; but one unusual and unique. In short, the buildina is to be a commemoration- a
structure dedicated to the vete1:ans of The Union Pacific Coal Company
and the \Vu.shington U nion Coal Company. These men, who are thus to be

days, d ue to the coiuplt•xit ies of modern c1v1h~abon_, to become ~ven a m1ddl;-timer." Quite tu,iclt• from t he per sonal s9:bsfachon o~ knowmg that you
rnnst have been fo rmed out of durable material to ha~e withstood t he avenging yca rs, t here- i~ nnotl1er r eason for ~ongratulatmg you. Yo~r s~an_ of
life ha:. been ca~t in what must be considered one of the most_ mte1estmg
period:; of the wodd's history. There have been "golden ages" in the past;
but these " golden ages" wer e "golden" for t he merest handful of per sons;
while the present may be with justification called the golden age of. the
many. For it must be apparent to all that the common man now enJoys
benefi ts and comforts thnt were unobtainable even by the nabobs o_f old.
The humbfost workmu.11 today may well have comforts and convemen~es
that p i·inces of old lacked. Those "old-timers" who have reach~~ t~e scriptur::d allo tment of three score and ten - and many of them will improve
on thi;; a llotment, I nm sure, by reaching four score and ten-have seen
progress ma rching with seven-league boots, fa-idy revolutionizing t h~ conditions of our existence. The last three decades, alone, have contributed
four of the most st a rtling mechanical innovations in the history of the
,rnrld. I refer, of coul'se, to the a utomobile, airplane, moving picture, and
radio. The ,vorld VVar alone was an event the like of which Wf!.S never seen
before. Deplorable as it was, it remains, nevertheless, the most colossal
drama ever seen upon the world's stage. vVhatever may be the defects of
this peTiod, no one can say that it has not been one of the most fruitful and
stirrino- periods of recorded history. So I say to you " old-timers" that
your span of life l1as been cast in one of t he most remarkable eras of hu~an bistorv. You can console yourselves with the 1·eflection that you
have been, ; nd still are, n part of a histm·y making epoch.
Now just a word to you on old age. No mention of thjs subject can
proceed very far without ~-eferri1!g to_ th~ famous speech of D r. w·m. _Osler
upon leaving Johns Hopkms U~uvers1ty m 1905. Dr. Osler was convinced,
so he said, of the the comparative uselessness of men above forty years of

I
•
' been so often nsserted • H e d'd
bage.chloroformed
as has
1 , 1owcver, assert
tl~at men of 60 sl:ould retire. It is difficult to say just how much Dr. Osle t·'s
statements were due to whimsicality, for he himself was nea1·ing the dead
line which he had fu:ed, and it may lrnve been that he was d t·iven by a puckish spirit to haYe some sport at tlic expense of ~hose who, like himself, had
crossed the half-century mark. At any rate lus speech p rovoked endless
arguments on the subject, and I think that generally speaking, Dr. Osler
was refuted. Innumerable achievements of men over 60 were a dduced to
disprove his theory. G. Stanley Hall, in his invaluable work "Senescence,"
quotes the opinion of one investigator, E. G. Dexter, who analyzed " lVho's
Wl10" for 1909, and fo~md that of the 9,000 p er sons listed only o ne in six
was under 40, a nd the nvernge age was 54. This analysis showed tlrnt only
16 per cent 1rns under the Osler dead line of 40. A fairly satisfacto ry re f'utation, I should say. I could cite many instances from the works of H,tll
and others of the prodigies performed by men for beyond t ltc 60 t111Lrk;
but I think that it is unnecessary. ,ve, all of us, have obsc rYed too many
instances of men performing capably their work long afte r GO to dotibt
that in ordinn1·y ca1liugs at least the Osler theory does not apply. And so
I saJ' to the veterans here today who have crossed the Osler dead line, that
you are living refutations of Dr. Osler.

Acting in behalf of the members of the Old Timers Association l am
sure I have voiced the sentiment of each and every member of :-a id ~h socintion when I state that we arc profoundly impressed with the ceremonies
accompanying these exercises, and wish to express om· deep apprecia tion
for the same. This endowment, the gift of The rnion Pacific Coal Company and ·washington Union Coal Company, through their President, l\Ir.
Eugene McAuli.l:fe, is indeed a magnificent one. Ur. McAuliffe, in presenting this gift, has eloquently portrayed the nims and purposes of the donors, and has recited the object of bringing int o being such a splendid monument to mark the change in human relations. The event, indeed, is a note,rnrthy one. It iurther emphasizes the fact that these coal compn.nics
wish to recognize in a substantial way the worth of their emplo_vcs who
have, through their many years of service, contributed so much to tl1e
progress and development of these companies. I formally accept this
gift in behalf of the Old Timers Association ·with grateful acknowledgment and thanks, and with the full consciousness that the members of the
Old Timers Association will, in th&lt;&gt; futm·e as in the past, proYe worthy of
this splendid testimonial and the t r ust reposed.

Mr. V. 0. Murray
(CC:

Mr. J. L. Rawlings)

Refering to our discus sion today r elative t o supplying currency
and coin for cashing pay roll vouche r s a t Supe rior.
Our former practice was t o have the Rock Springs National Bank
send the Store Manager at Superior wha t currency he r equired each pay
day by registered mail insured and what coin he required by insured
express collect.
The bank sent this office a debit slip for the exact amount of the
insurance and postage on the currency.
The Store Manager at Superior paid the expr ess charges on the
coin when he received it.
I f it is decided to s end ca sh to Superio r to pay our pay roll
vouchers I recommend tha t the same arran ,ement be made with the Rock
Springs National Bank to s end pay roll money to the Mine Superint endent
at Superior.
Attached is copy of letters showing how this was handled.
ur records indicate that from 40% to 50% of the Supe rior Mine pay
roll uas paid by our Superior Store when the arrangement was in effect.
Insurance charges on currency is 8¢ per thousand dollars or fraction
thereof. Postage is 3¢ per ounce or fraction thereof and r egistry fee
is .30¢.
Insurance and expres s charges on coin is ~2.33 for the first $100.00.
From $100.00 to ;&gt;200.00 charge is $2.42 and from $200.00 to (~300.00
charge is ~t2.82.
r-~ail leaves Rock Springs at 7:40AM and Arrives in Superior at 9:30AM.
Leaves Superior at 3:45PM and arrives in Rock Springs 5:10PM every day
except Sunday and holidays.
Express leaves Rock Springs every morning at 8:15AM except Saturdays,
Sundays and legal holidays, and returns to Rock Springs immediately after
unloading at Superior.

(CC - Mr. J. B. Hughes
Mr . J . L. Rawl i ngs
rfr . J . D. Foster)
A problem has arisen at Superior concerning t he cashing of
employes' che cks a t t hat district .

As you will probably r ecall, the

M &amp; K Market at Superior doing business at the U. P. Store in Superior
has been . ca shing t he payroll checks .
I am enclosing a copy of a letter from 1r. O. E. Bertagnolli,
Cashier of t he North Side St ate Bank, notifying t he M &amp; K 1-iar ket that the
bank can no longer advance ca sh for thi s purpose .

It is my understanding

that othe r pl a ces of business in Superior, Point of Roc ks and Thayer
Junction having t hi s s ervice have also been not ified.
The U. M. ·f. of A. contract provides t hat wage s be paid by check,
Section 77, Page 63 of the Agr eement r aading :
11 ,1U
, l 1vages due 1--;ill be paid in negotiable checks
during mine office hours, 1-~ith provision f or the prompt
r edemption of same by banks convenientl y locat ed. 11

/

Of course you kno1-, there are no banks at superior.
l-Ie would not care to redeem th~ checks at the mine office as it

1vould entail considerable wor k and t he necessity of providing cash on
paydays.

It is my understanding that up to ~~ 0,000.00 can be transported

to Super ior through t he mail but in my opinion this would not be
sat isfa ctory.
I am bringing this to your attention asking your advice as to
the best method to handle the cashing of payroll voucher s or it may be that
the employes will be required to cash them in Rock Springs.

Gentlemen:
On January 11, 1958, this bank was examined by the State and
Federal Authorities.

The ~aminers not only severely criticized the

practice of extending credit on so called Payday notes, but subsequent
to that date, served the Management with notice that such practice
must be discontinued.
Ue deeply regret that we are forced by that edict to inform you
that effective ·~arch 1, 195g, this bank will no longer offer this
service.
Very truly yours,

Your letter of date January 30, 1950, with reference to m.v letter
of November 23, 1949, and your reply of November 25, 1949, regarding use of
Noo 5 fuel oil for treating slack coal at the D. 0. Clark Mine tipple.
After carefully considering the attendant danger in the use of
this oil, it was determined that we would not attempt to use same due to
its low flash point.

The oil is slightly heavier than the present spray

oil being used and it was deemed possible that the No. 5 fuel oil would
not properly atomize at a temperature of less than 180°.

In view of the

information from the Sinclair Refining Company that the flash point of the
No. 5 fuel oil is 200°, we have determined that its use is hazardous and
should not be attempted.

I see no objeot1o n to experimenting with

However, if it 1s necessary to heat the oil to 100°,

As I mentioned before, extreme care should
be taken 1n the use of 011 for treot1ng coal , and no

(CC - Yir. V. O. Murray
Mr. J.B. Hughes
Mr. Joseph Q. Berta)
This has reference to our letter of date November 5, 1949, and your
reply of November 9th on trial of Sinclair No. 5 fuel oil for treating slack

at Superior D. O. Clark Mine tipple.
We were informed verbally this date, by the local ag·e nt for the
Sinclair Refining Company that the flash point of No. 5 fuel oil is 200 degrees as determined by the Pensky-Marten Closed Cup Method.
We were also informed that the Pensky-Marten Closed Cup Method of
determining flash point is accomplished by heating 50 cubic centimeters of
fuel oil in a closed contained which also contains a thermometer.

Heat is

increased at the rate of 9 degrees per minute and lid of container removed
every 2 minutes to determine temperature of oil.

The flash point is deter-

mined to be the lowest temperature at which the oil flashes when lid of container is removed.
It may be possible to atomize and spray No. 5 fuel oil at a temperature less than .the 180 to 210 degrees necessary with the present spray oil
being used.
We certainly would not be warranted in trying to use No. 5 fuel
oil with flash point of 200 degrees with present temperature and pressure.
Vie recommend that at same later date we experiment with the fuel
oil at a temperature of 120 to 140 degrees to determine whether or not the
No. 5 fuel oil will properly atomize at that temperature.

Your letter of date November 9, 1949, in reply to nw letter of date
November 5, concerning triaJ. use of Sinclair No. 5 fuel oil for treat ing slack
at the Superior D. O. Clark Mine tipple.
We were in the process of determining flash point on coal spray oil
furnished by the Standard Oil Company and now being used at Superior at the
time of receiving your letter of date November 9.
We attach copy of wire confirming telephone conversation advising
that the minimum flash point on oil now being used is 340 degrees.

This
\

flash point insures our heating the oil to 180 degrees to 210 degrees.
We have determined at both the Hanna and D. O. Clark locations that
it is necessary to heat the oil to temperature range of 180 degrees to 210
degrees to accomplish proper atomizing of this oil.
The advice that we have had on flash point of No. 5 fuel oil being
150 degrees has not been fonnal or been confirmed.

We have been trying for

some time to determine the flash point .of this oil from the Sinclair Refining
Company and to date have not received confirmation or the exact flash point
of same.

We have therefore deferred trying this oil due to possibility of

flash back in the system.

We will naturally secure the proper information

before attempting any trial run of the oil.

A tempora r y oil tre a ting plant has been construct ed on the ti pple at D. O. Clark Nina , Superior , at
a cost of ,J8 ,l 85.78. Thi s pla nt was first operat ed on
Septeu:ber 1 2tt , a l t hough there ar e soL1e minor a dditions
to be m~de the cost of t:rhich is est imated at .~ 255 . 76 ,
n!aking a total estima ted cost of _'.l~, 441 . 54 . I t is my
unaerstanding that this project is an experimenta l arrnngement for treating slack coal in the Roc k Spri ng s
Field . If the experiment proves satisfactory and a
n:a rkdt is developed for treat ed slack coa l from this
field, all of theoperating mines would benefit under the

I:r. I3ayl~ss has suggestea that t he Gxpense of
this tempor ry pro_ject be c harged to Operating ii:xpcnses
on a tonna ~e ba Eis for coal produced in t he Hock Sprin~s
Field . In order to not abnorma lly increa se the cost of
our coal for any one month , it is propose d to spread
this cost over the months of October, November and De cember, 194~. This arrangement has the approval of tir .

If you desire further· informtion in connection with the construction and proposed operation of

Your letter of date September 16, 1949, attaching copy of letter
from Mr. T. M. Naughton of the Sinclair Refining Company concerning the use
of No. 5 fuel oil for treating slack at Superior D. o. Clark Mine tipple.
We are instructing Purchasing Agent Dodds to secure one barrel of
No. 5 fuel oil (Union Pacific shop oil) from the Sinclair Refining Company
for trial use at Superior.

It is our plan to oil treat slack for use at the

bath house, mine office and shop buildings at Superior to determine its
effectiveness in allaying dust and any objectionable characteristics of
odor and its desirability as stoker fuel.
We will report on our findings after trial use.

Mr. H. C. Livingston

As requested in your letter of May 2, 1949, file 353-12, herewith
comments concerning temporary oiling installation at D. O. Clark tipple,
Superior, Wyoming.
Without bin storage facilities, the separation of a reasonable
amount of slack may best be accomplished by diverting part of the slack on
the shaking table to the mixing conveyor for loading with larger sizes, reducing to a uniform flow as nearly as possible the slack stream during treatment; probably requiring, however, attention and manual adjustment of oil
quantity while unloading oiled slack.

Diversion of part of slack flow will

limit the capacity of spraying equipment required, and is, I think, desirable
unless loading part of the slack with larger sizes is found objectionable.
I concur in Ur. Livingston's preliminary estimate dated May 3,1949,
of the cost.

Recommend consideration of Lion Coal Company's storage tank or

· tanks only.

To handle tank carloads of oil probably 12,000 gallon capacity is

required; we have 4,000 gallon tank on hand at Rock Springs which might be
satisfactory if oil is secured in smaller quantities.

N. Bayless;

Referring to your letter of date May 2, 1949, File 353-12, concern-

/

ing previous correspondence on tipple changes at Superior D. O. Clar k Mine to

prepare canmercial coal.
Concerning major changes providing for additional l oading boom to
allow the separation of 6 11 x 1 11 coal into 3 11 x 1 11 nut and 6 11 x 3 11 egg, also
lump loading, on separate boom, and various other cooibinations common to
4-track loading facility, we attach hereto print prepared by the Engineering
Department together with preliminary estimate of cost dated March 29, 1949,
of installation of new loading track and attendant work thereto.
The undersigned has also prepared print and preliminary cost
estimate varying from the pl.an and estimate submitted by the Engineer ing
I \

Department, copies attached hereto.
Referring to the installation of equipnent for oiling 0'' x 1 11 or
0 11 x 1-5/8" slack, we transmitted estimate of cost with our l etter of date
May 3, 1949, covering the transfer of available equipment at Hanna to be -

supplemented by necessary equipnent not on hand.

We assume that you will

wish to review this estimate before authorizing the start of work.

In the

meantime, we shall arrange for the transfer of the available equipment at
Hanna awaiting your further advice and approval of the expenditure in the
amount of $6,534.00, to be charged to operating expense.

(.co:

Baldridge

Your letter of May 3 on oil treating tac111t1es tor

treating alack coal, D. o. Clark Mine, Superio~:
It is very necessary that 'kJ'e develop information

on whether there is a market .for oil treated slaok ooal trom
our mines in the Rook Springs field.
As we have discussed a number of times, the D. o.
Clark Mine is the logical location for suoh an experimental
plant.

Theretore l would suggest that we go ahead and install

a -plant, gathering up the material that we have on hand that
oan be used, and secure additional equipment to make the 1nstallat1on, 'keeping in mind that any material purohaaed or work done

should fit 1n with a larger permanent installation it we find
1t desirable to make the larger installation.
I would suggest that the cost ot this experiment
be oharged on a tonnage basis equally to all coal produoed

from what is known as the Rook Springs field.

.

A disousaion with Auditor Baldridge will no doubt
indioate that this material and_work should be charged to

Mr. I. M. Charles
Mr. Robt. A. Dodds)

Your letter of date April 22, 1949, concer~ing oil treating· equipment for Superior and the possibility of securing oil treating equipnent from
the Hanna tipple sufficient to installing oil sprays for a reasonable amount
of slack coal at the D. O. Clark Mine.
We have determined that the steam heating and circulating unit
purchased from the Commercial Fuel Company, Pittsburg, Kansas on date September 5, 1946, is now being used to heat and circulate oil through the oil'
storage tank at Hanna.

Also that this equipment could be relieved and a

small circulating pump installed to replace same.
We have prepared and attach hereto pre.l iminary cost estimate of
moving and installing the equipment purchased in 1946 at Superior, together
with the necessary material and equipnent to supplement same to allow oil
treating slack at the D. O. Clark Mine.

Our past experience with the equip-

ment to be transferred is that capacity of same is limited to approximately
ll railroad cars per shift, which would no doubt suffice for the present
time.
Our estimate includes the purchase of a 40-pound p.s.i. steel
boiler together with second hand stoker, second hand storage tank which we
feel can be secured from the Star Mine of the Lion Coal Corporation; also
building to house the boiler and stoker and oil heating and circulating
unit of corrugated iron construction on concrete foundations with concrete
floor.

r

I

�- 2 We feel that all material listed in the estimate is readily available with the exception of the steel boil.er and we have asked Mr. Dodds to
secure quotation and delivery on a duplicate of that installed at the Hanna
plant.

Mr. I. M. Charles:
• Please refer to recent correspondence on tipple
chang~s at Superior to prepare oommeroiai" ooal. :
The maJor changes discussed should be worked up
1n detail. for disouss1on, and if we agree to make the changes ,
we will include them as a budget item for 1960.
However, I would suggest that you immediately

.

begin moving the extra oiling equipment' from Hanna and installing 1 t at the D. 0 . Clark Min~, Superior.-

Wha t we h ave in

mind is to make up and install oiling :facilities suffioien_t for

oi;:ting a re asonable amount of slack tor commercial sales
\

tor this year• e ma rket..
The install~tion of this oiling equipment will,
or course, be temporary if major ohanges are made to ·the tipple
within a year or two .

'

Tl1erefore lt will be necessarY, to

charge the insta~lat1on or the temporary oiling facilities
to operating cost, which should . not be a large item.

However,

keep in mind that any add1t1orial material required should be
secured with the thought in mind of being able to use it 1n
the perm.anent setup .

I would appreciate you gentlemen advising your
thought in this matter, beginning work on the installation as

Your letter or April 4 on oil treat1ng ·equ1pment

for Superior:
Mr. Charles' letter would indicate that the equip-

ment at the Lion Coal Company's mine would not be su1tab~e
for our purpose, or we woul~ not be justified in making the
install t1on.

However; I requested that you oheokup on_the

oiling eqU1pment at Hanna and see if we could rig up st.it"I

t1o1ent equipment to install oiling sprays for a reaeollilable

As per your request, Chief Engineer I. M. Charles and General Chief
Electrician U. F. Toucher have inspected the coal oiling system at the Lion
Coal Company's Star Mine.

We attach copy of their report hereto.

As per our phone conversation, we have requested Mine Superintendent
Hodge Burress to discuss the matter of releasing the Viking oiling system
originally purchased for Hanna from Pittsburg, Kansas.

We feel that this

equipnent, supplemented by oil storage tank, etc., will serve our purposes
much better than that inspected at the Lion Coal Company's Star Mine.

Mr. I. N. 13D.yless, President
The Union Pacific Coal Company
()naha, Nebraska
Dear Mr. Bayless:

Tb.is will, more or less, review previous conversations relative
to our placing an oil treating plant at the D. O. Clarlc mine, or
one of your other mines in this area, for use in dustproofing
stoker coal during the forthcoming coal season of 1949-50.
Currently, it is our understanding you are willing to permit the
placement of an oil treating plant at your D. O. Clark mine, or
one of your other mines, and that we are to be responsible for the
processing of the coal. Charges for the oil treatment to be determined by us and collectible by us fran your distributors on
any coal treated for their accounts.
Please be advised we are prepared to proceed with the installation
of the plant and now would like to have some understanding as to
the type of protect ion, or reimbursement, we can expect from The
Union Pacific Coal Company in .the event you should decide to discontinue the availability of stoker coal for sale on the connnercial
market. While we do not expect to be confronted with such a situation, we deem it wise to explore the possibility and establish a
mutual understanding as to what our individual liabilities might
be.

Will you give this matter your thought and advise?
With kindest personal wishes,

'

I. N. Bayless:
This has reference to installation of 50-ton dump hopper and con-

veyor to receive strip coal and deliver same to preliminary crusher at Hanna
No. 4- A Mine Tipple, same being made a part of the 1950 budget.
You will recall our phone advice that we have made a comparative
cost estimate using a reciprocating plate feeder and belt conveyor, and in
lieu thereof an apron conveyor, to deliver strip coal from the dump hopper
to the crusher.

Also, that the cost of the installation using plate feeder

and belt conveyor was approximately $25,000 and the apron conveyor install ation approximately $24,000 .

In checking our figures, ,·,e determine that we

had not included excavation, concrete and reinforcing steel for the conveyor
gallery and same has now been corrected to include t hese items.
For your information, we attach copy of our prel iminary cost estimate, designated as 11A11 , employing the reciprocating plate feeder and belt
conveyor, and 11B11 , the cost estimate on basis of using the apron conveyor.
Cost estimate 11A11 covering the dump hopper with reciprocating plate
feeder and belt conveyor has been incl uded as an item in the 1950 budget for
the Hanna district.

AIRMAIL
Mr. Eugene McAuliffe:

aeferring to yours of January 11th, file 353-12:
We conferred with Messrs. Livingston and Charles on this
situation, and I am att aching herewith a letter from Mr. Charles,
who has gone very closely into this situation.
I am sure i f Mr. von Perbandt did not understand that the

over-all engineering cost would be approximately $1,000, as quoted by

Mr. Charles on page 1 of his l etter, that was certainly the understanding

.

of the officials of The Union Pacific Coal Company who sat in with him.
Inasmuch as there would seem to be a controversy about the
amount, I agree with Mr. Charles that we should ask the Allen &amp; Garcia
Company for a statement to January 1 , 194.3, rendered in accordance with
Section l quoted by Mr. Charles, and prints of the various drawings
which have been prepared for this work.
I am attaching also a letter sent me by Mr. Livingston on

the same subject, as requested in your letter of January 11th.

I feel we must have some understanding with the Allen &amp; Garcia
Company about the rendering of detailed bills for services performed in
connection with the Stansbury Mine, as we are fearful, if we do not
have some check on expenditures, vie vdll find, when the job is only
partially completed, that we have ove -

our estimates.

J an . 8th, 1943.
Mr. Eugene McAuliffe, President,
The Union Pacific Coal co.,
1416 Dodge Street,
Omahe.., Nebr.
Dear Mr. McAuliffe:

RE : Job #12??-Ao

In connection wi th your l etter of December 26th regarding our bill on job 12??-A, I have checked into the matter and
find that the bills s ubmitt ed cover only such time as actually
spent on the work and am enclosing a detailed distribution of the
men and time spent on\ the job for your information.
You will note that the bill for $?94.00 covers the actual engineering, making of mechanical details, preparation of material lists and everything that is classed as engineering cost,
which is below the a.mount of our original estimate of $1,000.00 .
I do not quite understand how a figure of 4% of the $16,000.00 estimate is arrived at as our original estimate of $16,000.00 submitted to you included $976.00 to cover this item and you will note
that S794.00 is below same.
In connection with the bill submitted for structural •
steel details in the amount of $1 , 129.62, this does not oome under
the classification ofengilieerin&amp;, but is the making of shop fabricator detail drawi.n gs. We admit that taken on a per ton basis the
figure looks high, but if you will analyse the type of structural ·
d·e tails that had to be made, namely, 14 tons of conveyor frame and
6 tons of structural building steel, the first being rather crooked
and requiring a great deal of calculation and the latter having to
be fitted into present structure, it will become apparent that this,
together with the lightness of the steel used does not give you
very much tonnage to work on, but enters into a considerable amount
of calculation and detail.
If you will analyse the attached detail time sheets you
will note that we have a total o~ 21 drawings required to cover all
details, 14 being for the conveyor totalling approximately 14 tons
and weights per sheet varying from 1/4 ton to 1-1/2 tons.
The other 5_drawings ~eing required to ~ake changes and
supply additional building steel including columns, trusses and a
lot of light steel fitted for re-use of old steel already in place.

Mr.

Eugene McAuliffe . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1/8/43.

This class of work is not clear cut detailing and cannot be placed on a tonnage basis very readily, most of the time being spent on fitting and calculationo
The usual structural steel fabricator will not include
conveyor frames as part of his work and they are made in the conveyor manufactursr's plant as part of the conveyor at a price of
15 to 20 cents per pound. 1;-.re make a practice of maldng shop details for the steel fabricator and our quotation of 11-1/2 cents
per pound f or steel foOobo New Castle , Indiana, plus $ 2080 for the
cost of details malces a total of 1408 cents per pound which is under what it can be bought for if the manufacturer is not furnished
with these drawings.
In connection with the building steel the fabricator
asks about 8 cents f.o.b. New Castle, Indiana, plus 2.46 for the details, -~otalling 10. 46 cents per pound, · a.nd in addition there is
approximately 2 tons of the old steel that will be moved and re-used
that will cost 2.8 cents per poundo
These drawings are not classed as engineering items as
they are part of the steel fabricator's work and the cost is included in the pound price submitted in his quotation. We have made
it a practice to make them in special instances where the fabricat or is not in a position to do so and we believe we can save time .
and money for our client. At the prGsent ti.me our field of fabricators is limited and the fact that details are made assures the
possibility of finding a place that will do the worko
This ratio is in no way to be considered as being com.parable to a total overall ton price for the Stansbury Mine, due to
the fact that the ratio of building steel to conveyor !'ram.es will be
much greater and not complicated with an attempt to use old steel.
Upon a review of this bill we believe that you will realize that this type and amount of work cannot be classed as straight
structural detail and that the costs are not out of .l ine with the
work doneo
So far we have not received any priority authority top
ceed with this conveyor installation, but have all details ready fo~orelease as soon as you can tell us to proceed.
Trusting that this explains our costs to your satisfaction and awaiting your reply, we are,
Yours very truly

�Rock Springs - December 24, 1942

Mr. Eugene McAuliffe:
I am returning herewith the two bills from the Allen &amp; Garci a
Compaey, received with yours of December 21st, file 353-12.
Mr. Bayless and Mr. Livingston have gone over these bills, and
they think them excessive, 11r . Charles calling attention to letter contract dated October 23, 1942, wherein it states "It is estimated that
the overall engineering cost will be approxi.matelv $1,000.00. 11

The

amount of these two bills is nearly double that figure .
~°le

dislike to hold up these bills, but they are so far out

of line with the estimate that we suggest you take it up with Allen
&amp; Garcia Company to give us an itemized bill,

so that we may study same .

Copv of letter from Mr . Charles is herewith attached.

�Rock Springs - October 16, 1942
!fr. Eugene McAuliffe :
You have copy of lette r of October 9th sent to Mr. Charles by
}.fr .

L. von Perbandt, of the 1l l en &amp; Garcia Company, giving a tentative

price of {?16,000 for the installation of the secondarv crusher at Hanna
,r

'

with convey or, etc .
1:ur . Bayless, wr . Charles, 1:r. Livin~ston, and I have gone over
this , and ne have the feeling that the sug~ested cost i s entirely too
high .

lir. Charles and )~r . Living ston have worked up figures which

indicate a total for this pro ject of $8,221, ,.-,hich we consider sufficiently
high .

I have asked Mr. Hunter a nd hlr . Charles t o secure prices on

rnatPri~ls required for this installation, to check Mr . Livingston's
figures.

\

Jt v;ould seem, if the Allen &amp; Garcia 9eople cannot reduce
this price: :re should figure on doing this work ni th our own forces.
-.✓e

would probably not get delivery of the material until early next

Spring, and the work would have to be st~rted in the Spring of 1943 .
In the event that y ou :&gt;.gree :'lith us, \'iOuld you desire to .;id.vise
the .All en &amp; Garcia Company, or we can advise them if you think·best.

~•r .

Charles is of the opinion we should allow them to go ahead 2.nd work up
the details, because they can do it more advantageously than he can with
his forces.
Letters from Messrs. Bavle, , Livingston, and Charles are
herewith attached.

CC - :Mr. I. N. Bayless

�Rock Sprintss - October 15, 1942

/
Mr. S-€0 r q;e B. Pr~rde :

-'\ttac hi ng l ett er f r om Vr . L. von Perbandt of t he Allen
a nd Garcia Companv , also L: r. l i vin~ston and •' r . Charles ' letters
regarding the extra crusher a nd conveyor to be installed in the
Hanna tipple .
I will a-::r ee that the estimate of ~?16, 000 made in Mr.
von Perba ndt ' s l e tters seems to be entirely out of line, and I
am wonc.ering if vou would ca re to authorize ~:r . Hunte r and
:'r .

r1ie rJ es to secure_ prices on the material req_uired for this

i nst ~l :i ation, at l east for checking purposes.

It may be necessary

that we attempt to make this installation independent of the
Allen and Garcia Company .
(sgd)

I. N. Bayless

\

�Rock Springs, \~yorning
Octob er 14, 1942

Mr. I. N. Bayl ess :
Reference i s made to a letter f r om 1[r . Von Perbandt of the
Allen and Garcia Companv dated October 9, 191.i.2 concernini:; secondary
crusher a nd conve~ror for the Hanna 4- A !:ine Tio!")le .
The amount of the estimated cost, $16000. 00 i s approximately
twice the amount of our e stimates whic h a re basecl unon Allen a nd Garcia
Company 's proposal figures adjusted to allow rea sona ble increa se in
costs.

I suggest tha.t we advise the :\llen a nd Garcia Company that we
do not Y:is h them to proceed on account of excessive estimated cost,
and that we secure quotations for materials contempl a ting the installation with our mm forces .
(sgd)

cory

I. ll. Charles.

�Rock Springs - October 14, 1942
Jlr . I. N. Bayless :
Referr ing to our discussion covering the addition of
a crushed coal conveyor and s econd ar y c rusher i nstall ation in the
Hanna No . 4- A ::i ne coal tippl e :
It i s set forth in t he A and G Company ' s l e tter, indic ating a n estimated inst alled pr ice of aoproximat ely $16, 000.
You 1:iill r ecall t hat we emploved t he :Ul en· Gar ci a
Company to prepare an est imate covering the constru ct i on of the
Hanna tippl e ; same bei ng dat ed July 14, 1941, Sheet No . 1 shoviing
that the accrued credit in t he t ipple , omitting t he crusher and
crusher conve.vor, of a pproximately ,,;9 , 664 .00, of which amount
04,624.00 covers the crusher proper.

This item, in the present

case to be furnished by the coal companv which would indicate
an a mount of ~5, 040 . 00 for the crusher conve~ror and crusher
installed .
An estimate of the installation, taking into account

increase in price of material and labor is as follows:
Crushed Coal Conveyor ~3,229.00 plus 30%
Labor installing crusher and conveyor,
~8ll.00 plus 30%
Structure $1,000.00 plus 30%
Platevrork and Rack Gates
Plus -10% Engineering and Contingency

- $ 4,200.00
1,050 .00
1,300.00
924.00
S 7,474.00
747.00
$ 8,221.00

I believe that the estimate as set forth by ~he Allen
and Garcia Company in the amount of ~;16,000, to be exorbitant and
entirely out of line .

Herewi th six copies each of purchase orders Nos . 68451, 68452,

68453, 68454, and 68455 , covering material for the Hanna tipple job.
The original and t wo copies of each order should be sent to
the Allen &amp; Garcia Company, one copy retained in your files , and two
copies returned to me for f urther handling .
llith regard to t he rubber belting, you have applied for
priority , and if and when received by you, will you please send to Mr.
Hunter for furt her handling .

The others are all covered by priority.

These orders constitute less than carload lots .

.hzy- remembrance

is that :rou asked the Allen &amp; Garcia people, wherever possible, to
consolidate the smaller items into carload lots, shipping as one carload.
I presume the Allen &amp; Garcia Company would advise you prior to the
shipment of this material if it can be consolidated as a carload, and
you can then give them rout·

Dear Mr. MoAuliff e:
vVe n ave receiv ed your letter and copies of
orders submitted De cember 19th, and have forwarded them
to the various compani~s for them to work upon. We expect to have the motors, controls and electrical equipment ready for you within the next day or t wo . So far
we have not seen order covering the machinery for MoNa1ly-Pi ttsburg, but am assuming that it will follow
very shortly. There is an appreciable tightening up of
all the markets, but believe that we are get ting into the
clear, especiaily on the main ite.ms, so as to wind up the
ordering of :materials before the end of the year.

Mr. Eugene McAuliffe, President,

Dear Mr. McAuliffe:
We are in receipt of your note of the 26th
,rl th accompanying letter con:fir.ming understanding between
yourselves and our Mr. von Perbandt in Omaha on the 25th,.
Unfortunately, Mr. von Perbandt is out of town
and will be until Monday. The writer discussed the details
with Mr. von Perbandt upon his return and there is only one
point on which I am not clear, but my understanding may not
be correct. I understood Mr. von Perbandt that because ot
technicalities in connection with the matter of sales tax,
that orders should read F.O.B. point of origin freight aliowed to destination instead of F.O.B. Hanna, Wyoming. It
all amounts · to the same in dollars and cents, but in one
case delivery is taken at the point of origin and the other
case at Hanna. You probably know- the legal angles covering
this . point. we are agreeable either way, whichever suits
your purpose best. The okayed note is enclosed herewith.
Yours very truly,
ALLEN ~GARCI

Dear Sir:-

In accordance with our telephone conversation
of today, we are returning to you herewith, copy of contract submitted to us for execution unsigned.
The only comment that we have to make in connection with this contract is that the clause on taxes does
not seem to include any change in Federal taxation, should
there be any, and it might be well to cover in this respect.
The amounts recommended by Mr. Livingston and
wr. pryde, namely, $50,000.00 for one person 6 one accident
j 100,ooo.oo and property damage by accident ~p25,ooo.oo,
meets with our approval.
The writer will be prepared to be in Omaha Monday for a further discussion should you deem it advisable.
Yours very truly,

C-26168

Omaha - November 11, 1941.

Mr. Eugene McAuliffe:
Pursuant to request contained in your letter
of November 10 I have prepared and attach the duplicate
originals of proposed contract with Allen and Garcia
Company, covering construction of coal tipple and dump
house at "L" Plane #4 Mine, Hanna, W;toming.
Your attention is called to the insurance provisions in Section 22 of the contract and the fact that
the amount of coverage has been left blank. The figures
should be inserted when the Contractor's requirements
have been determined.
I also call your attention to the revision
made i n the language appearing under the caption "SUBSTITUTIOl'T OF 1\'IATERIAL", at the top of page 9 of the
Specifications. The original language stated, among
other things, •1\ •Je to be allowed to furnish such substitutions, etc. t f To avoid the a.mbigui ty introduced
by the word "we" the para.graph has been rewritten as
shmvn on the paster and elaborated somewhat to specify
the definite procedure with regard to adjustment in
contract price on account of such substitution.

�Rock Springs - October 30, . 1941
!fr• Eugene McAuliffe:

Referring to yours of October 28th, with tabulation of the
bids:
I think you did a very good job, and I am glad to have it
out of the way.
good tipple•

I am sure t he Allen &amp; Garcia people will give us a

I am surprised at t he McNall y- Pittsburg and the Link-

Belt people being so much higher t han the Allen &amp; Garcia, but the trend
of prices is ve r y visibly upward .
;\Ti th regar d to your wire M-58, received yesterday .

I V!as in

Hanna . esterday, and Mrs. Outsen gave Ur. Hunter a copy of your ·wire,
he immediatel y getting in touch with Mr. Virgil L. Board, Director of
Priorities for the Intermountain District , 520 U. 3. National Bank
Building, Denver, Colorado.

l~ir. Board advised Mr . Hunter it would be

necessary for us to get a special priority for the construction of our
tipple, and that the present priority we have is for maintenance and
repairs only and would not be applicable to an addition to our plant.
He has sent in today I s mail full information 11rith regard to the rating
we should ask for.

I am attaching herewith the application for a

Project Rating, together with the information requested.
I am sending the questionnaire and other matters to you because
it would seem to me that the Allen &amp; Garcia people would have to fill in
the project requirements, the list of the materials which will be used
in the structure.

Mr. Board stated very definitely that it will be

necessary to get a separate priority rating for this project, and that
all infonnation requested must accompan~ ae application.

Rock dprings, Wyo., March 25, 1922 •
Mr. E. s. Brooks,
President,
Rock dprings , \Iyo.,
Dear aJir:
~~

Leases with Thoma s Love covering oper at ion of Opera
and Club Houses at Hanna, Reliance, u uperior and 1.:Tinton, will
expire April 30, 1922.
The present leases do not speci fy whether or not
rental based on 85~ of the collect i ons at these places includes
water, but it has been my understanding that the commission included wat er, and n o separ ate char ge ha s been made for it at
Reliance, \Jinton and cluperior.

At Hanna, the Company does not

own the water system, and 1ir . Love pays the r.:ater Company direct.

I f the contr acts are to be reneued, it would be well to make
this point clear in the new contracts.
Yours r espect fully,

�:~ro

Mr. George. B. Pryde,
Was t al k i ng to Mr Love this morning regarding

open the theatre nith a show on Sat ur day even ing Nov ember 19th.
He will have t wo shows, and the fea t ur e picture wi l l be Mc , Fadclon Flats,
.:- ·

Lnd t h e r9 will be a comedy reel, and Pathees Weekl y .

The dance hall will not be r e.ady f or Satur day n i ght , and .lil.r Love
d oe s not thinlr well of t h e i de a or having a dan ce a nd show on the
same even i n g,

clai□ ing

t q.at it will mix thin gs up and neither be a

s uccess . He doe s not care t o h av e the band out , a nd t,h e programme at
prese~t i s that I say a few words bef ore the opening' or each show, and
that you or any of t h s off icial s who can be h ere also ma~e a few
remarks, and Mr Crank President of The U H VI of A, a..lso make a few
remarks. The open ing dance will be held on Thakagiving Eve , under/4
auspices of the American Legion.
We will be glad to have as many of the officials and their wives
present on each of the above dates , (Nov 19th, and Nov 24th)

as can

malre it convenient to attend~.
:Mr Love f'eels that on account o:r the rush
there will be in connection with moving in and getting things ready
that it will be impossible to arrange for anrthing more in connection
with the opening night, than the programme outlined above.

Mr . A.

Rel1-1 tive to the Amusement Hall a.t Superior,

we fixed up an e~tra room on the ground f loor and painted
this pEu·t of the building , a l so built a 1Jd put i n an ice
conta iner for founta in . we also repaired the ceilins in
the basement. I rms under the impression that I.ix' . ward
ha~ pa inted the basement but found he had n ot done so.
):he above work cost us somewhere near t wo hundred dollars
for m~terial smd l ab.or.· I also understobd from Ur. Love's
sta tement v,hen he was her e somet i r.1e ag o that they did not

i ntend to use the bowling a lley. '-11he basement w:'...11 be fixed

up ~ithout delay.
Instead of working this pl a ce on a percentage basis

I would suggest putting same on a fl~t rate, say of forty
dollars per month, s ame to include lights and ~ater.

I may also add that in so far a s keeping the bnsement
clean it will be impossible with the furnace located on this
floor.

Wish you would take this matter up with Mr. Broon some time

in the near future ,,hen you are out there.

Am very much surprised that

the basement bas not been fixed up as you uill recall Mr. Brown was instructed to do this s owe time ago.

Wish you would ask him to see that

the basement is cleaned, painted, etc.

Thereafter we \"/ill place the

responsibility of keeping it in shape upon those uho are in charge of

Il

the building.

.Am not satisfied ~itb the people who are out there now.

They live in the building, do not pay rent, and the living facilities

I \ \
\

we are donating to thera, including 1:1ater, lights, etc., leaves us very
little actual revenue from the Amusement Hall proper.

Dear Sir:

r

Referring to youx letter of October 2 6, relative to
the division of r evenue be t ween tbe Liine Department and the Store
Dep a rtment, covering the op er a tion of Oper a House a t Winton Mines :
At the time I wrote you r e i ative to the operation of tbe
r!inton Oper a House, the revenue collect ed from Mr o Love was· very
small, there fore, I s ugge sted th a t ~r&gt; l0 . 00 or (~15.00 per month of
the tot a l revenue each month be cr edited to the Store.

Since

th at time the revenues have inc re a sed very greatly and it would
not seem proper to continue crediting only ~:l l5.00 per month to
Store revenue.

','Ti th your approv al , I will now arrange to put

Winton Opera House on the same basis as the Opera Houses at the
other camps, that is to say, $ 75000 per month of the total revenue collected will be credited to Winton Store .
Kindly adviSe whether or not this meets with your
approval.
Yours respectfully,

Cheyenne, i./yoming, September 17, 1921.

Dear Sir:
Referr i ng to your let ter of August 11th advising that contract
was being prepar ed to cover l ease of Oper a Hou se to Thos Love on the same
basis that our Oper a Houses a t Hanna, Reliance ru1&lt;l Superior are leased:
r:ir.

Love is a ccept i ne our merchandi se coupons f or admissions to

the theatre and t he s t ore at \7inton is exchan~ing t hem f or ca sh.

It is

roy under standing, al s o, that the s t ore r eads tho registers, or otherwise
checlcs the amount taicen i n by :.rr. Love at the theat re and handles the 8;&amp;
commission accruing t o t he company.

I do not think the store ls ge t t i ng any pa.rt of the revenue
from t his c01mnissiou but think it s hould receive ,~10.00 to $ 15.00 a
month for the trouble the Storekeeper and Cashier are put to in handling
this matter.

The corrmission for July amounted to approximately ~3o.OO

Perha ps we should give the wal ls and ceil ing

Dear Si r:

Refe rring to your l e tte r of August
12th r el a tive to p cxll hall.
The ivie gea.th '.:; oal Company did not
have anything to do wi t h t he lett ing of the
pool ha ll only to the ext~ nt of turning it
ove r to the ~1 inton Tra ding Company a t a.rent
of ~15. 00 per month. The 1i'i inton Trading Co. ,
tbem sublet it to 'Nhoever they wanted in there
and a t the time the U/P/ Coal Com~any took
this prope rty over +t was contracted to Mr.
Perko a t a r ent of .;4u . 00 per month. No
pe rcentage whateve,r, j ust a flat rent rate.
The cqal Comuany now handles it
char~ing Perlrn ~~25.00 per month rent, and as
far as I know the place is conducted in an
orderly manner.

Ve ry truly yours,

I note that the date of the inventory ha s not been filled
in as to the year~ I also note that the inventory includes only
32 folding chairs, while the inventory a ccompanying last year's

possibly this is an error.
Other than the above, I find the proposed lease to ba

ur. D. 9 . Brooks is my under st and ing that the 8% commission was to cover rental
of the building and electricity furnished for lighting and for
the operation of iioving Picture llachine.

In connection with our

investigation o f lo ss on operations .o f Hanna El ectric Light Plant
concerning wh ich I will write you f ully in a few days, it was found
that in add ition to the lights, I.Ir. Love is using electricity for
a Carbonator , an Air Compressor , four Heaters, Elec t ric Piano and
a Pope orn :.i:ac hine o

I unders·truid that a meter is installed at

the Theatre but th at tPe el ectricity fv.rnisbed the Club House and
a~p l i ances i nstalled therein, i s not measuredo

The 1:.1ine su·9erintend-

en·i; h as est:imated that the appliances in the Club House incl uding
the l umps ,;Jill use approxi:no.tely 1,338 .9 K1.J hours per week or 5,'738. 1
K' : hours every thirty days.

It is estimated that the heaters alone

v1 ill use anpr oxim3.tely 5,000 K'7 ho urs every thirty da yso
I find that Hr. Love pi1rchased f or use at the Club House,
only one ton of coal each month during December 1920, January o.nd
Ev i dently Hr. Love is using el ectr i c i ty furnished
free by the Company , to heat the Club House, instead of ~urchasing
It may be that he was authorized to use
coal for that purpose .
electri city fo r heat ing purposes, but if s o , I have not been advised
to that ef:f ect .

Dear Sir:
Tue Storekeeper at Superior advises that he collected
$40.00 from Thomas Love as rental on the Opera House and Amuse ment Hall at Superior, fo r the months of July, August, September .
and October 1920.
Toe agreement with llr• Love s pecifies that he shoul.d
pay ff'i, of ell receipts acoruillg from admi s sions to the opera

Houever, on account of
House and sales of merchandise etc.
the buildings and fixtures not being in such shape tbat a profitable business could be carried on prior to November 1, you
have released u r. Love from paying a% on hi s r eceipts , requiring
bim to pay onlY $10.00 per month frpm July 1 to October 31, for
Please confirm or correct my ,mderstanding
use of buildings .

of this matter.
For you:r information, I may state tbat a check of
i.ir. Love's business at Superior, sboWS that bis receipts were
$ 89.09 for July, C666.?l for Augu.st, ~1,632.02 for September
and f,1,636.'75 for October, of which had tbe regular commi ssion
,b

been collected, the compa?V would have received C'7.13, $ 5~.34,

s. Brooks - 2I expe cted to have information in sh ape to give an opinion

as to how the revenue from our Opera Houses and Amusement Halls at
Hanna , Reliance and Su-pe rior should be divided between Real Estate
Department and I.iercbund i se Depar tm ent

However, I find that at.

Hanna and ~ eliance, t he maintenance and repairs of these buil dings
I have re ouested
have not been ren ortea separ ate ly on Form 3) o
the l~Tine Su'.ferintendents t o s end me a statement showing the amounts
expended on these buildings since the leases went int o effect , and
I exoect t o have the matt er in sha0e to submit t o you by January 1st.

I ,

In the meant ime, I would s uggest that the entire 040o00 collected
a t Superior in Jul y , August, Se~tember and October, be credited to
the Real Estate Department .
During November , u r . Love's reoeip--cs at Su-perior amounted

'.

to 0 2,344.16 , on which the Storekeeper collected commission of 8'fo
Until a basis of division is arrived at, I would
or t,.118'7. 53 o
suggest that an arbitrary amount f or rental - say 035. 00 or 040.00,
and an estimated amount for light and water, if the exact amount
cannot be aetermined,be credited to the P.eal Estate Department,
If you agree
the remainder to go to the Uerchandi se Denartment.
with me in this, please advise me what a.mount you think shoul d be
credited to the Real Estate Department, and I will advise the Liine
suver intendent and Storekee~er how the collecti ons should be handl ed.
Adjustments can be made for November and December bus iness, as soon
6

s an exact basis for division is determined .

H:16 DODGE STREET
0).1.ARA, NEBRASKA,

August 30, 1920.

Mr. EoS. Brooks, General llanager,
The Union Pa ci f ic Coal Company,

Rock Spring s, Wyoming .
Daa r Sir:
Re ::i:'erring to your letter of Au~ust 19th enclosing

t u o copies of the proposed contract with Thomas Love, covering
h is operation o f club privileges, mms sta nd, etc., at the Hanna,
Reli a nce and Superior camps:
I have gone over this contract and feel that the

for r.. of it needs some rcvi sion but lJefore attempting to revise it,
I would like to ask y ou whether you see any objection to making
three separate contracts covering the privileges at each of the
camps, respectively.
be

It strikes me that this arrangement would

preferable especially inasmuch as the term of the ~ontra.ct as

it respects the Hanna location begins a couple of months prior to
the term respecting the other locations.
Will you please advise me?

You~s truly,

Mr. E . s. Brooks
Genera l Mana~r
Rook Springs: Wyo .,

Dear Sir:
Referring to your let t er of June 17, sugges ting that
commiss ion received from Thos. Love, lessee of Opera and Club
House at Hanna be divided so that the store will receive an
a rbitra ry amount of $1 25.00 per month, and the remainder applied
on the light a nd rent accounts:
Ina smuch a s the maintenance, depreciation, taxes, insurance, etc. on this building are cha r ged to the Real Estate
Department, it seems to me that an arbitrary amount should be
credited for rent, actual amount for light, and the remainder
credited to t he Store.

The buildings cost ~14,000.00, deprecia-

tion charges amount to ~43.00 and insurance charges ~5.00 per
I am unable to figure maintenance or tax charges.
We
month.
have been charging i 40.00 per month rent, a nd ~~10.00 for the
Whether or not that is enough I am not prepared to say.
barber shop.
It would perhaps be a more equitable basis of division
to credit the Real Estate Depa rtment with -

Actual light and power provided all
electricity used in the' entire building
is measured.
(2) Commission on admissions to the Opera
Rouse, as the Store Department is not
concerned in that part of the building.

An arbitrary amount r epresenting rental
for the Club House.

Rental from Barber Shop ($10.00 per month)

Such division would l eave the Store the commissi on on merchandise sales, less an a rbitrary amount for rental of Club House.

This

matter is however , left to your judg~ent, and if you decide that
$125.00 for the Store's proportion should stand, I will issue in- structions accordinglyo
For 1-iay, and I presume for June also, the Mi m Department

light, the store r etaining the remainder of the commission.

I return herev1i th agreement between Thomas .1.,ove
and The Union ?aoific Coal Company covering the operati on of
the Opera liouse and privileges a.t Hanna, \"/yoming , which was
submitted to me with your letter of June 14th.
I observe that the agreement has al.ready been

:fully executed.
.rt seems to me from such information as I. can

'·

.

!

· tains furniture end fixtures walch are illoluded in the lease but

:f' gather from the oontraot itself that several points may have
j ' b een overlooked in drawing it. 'very likely the building con-

~ ·l nothi.ng is said therein ab, ut the ownership of such furniture
~ ) end fixtures nor is there a sohedule attached to the lease to

\ ident i.fy the,;,. l!'Urt her, if such personal property 16 • leased,
' there should be some provision ill the agreement impo61Jlg upon
t 'f the ~essee the obligati on to give it proper car••
~
~'he ].ie.bil.ity for maintaining end repairl.llg the
I ~ leased premises should, ill rrry judgment, be defined in the con-

L~l

J

tract.

While a charge of ~10.00 a month 10 indicated to
pay for water and light, nothl.116 16 said about the heating and
this should al.So be covered by a suitable provision.

i

1 imagine that the ~essee will continually be exceeding his rights under this lease in the nature of merchandise sold
by him as the limitation as to articles to be sold is probably

1

"' rr-

, j

~.

~

more reet:1oted than Was meant. He is epecifioallY prohibited
from selll.llg a:rrJ other articles than those mentioned and those
mentioned are tobe.coos, eoft drinks, candy,nuts end ice oream,
This would preclude the eale of fruit and other articles whioh are
usually and properly sold at a refreshment stand.

Dear llr o llcAuliffe:I won't say that I was exactly disappointed, be cause these days even part of a
job is better than nothing at a l l, but I did
think our crowd good enough and smart enough to
get the entire job. However, Allen ~ Gar cia
are a good outfit, and it may be possible for
us to persuade them that they shoul d buy from
us some of the mach i nery that g oes into the tipp l e.
We a r e grateful to you and your
associates for favoring us with the be l t conveyo r , and I can ass,ure you that the Y1o rk wi ll go

Gentlemen:

Atten.- Mr. Eugene MoAuliffe.

In connection with the new work at Superior,
Wyoming, it has occurred to us that it might be decidedly
to your advantage to e quip the mine cars with semi-automatic
safety couplers as indicated and shown on the enclosed pamphlet. We have at various times called this matter to your attention reciting its merits and its unparalleled success in
preventing injuries so often occurring with the type of coupler indicated and shown on your Reliance pit car drawing.

I
\
I

l

'\

Therefore, in behalf of safety , we would appreciat an opportunity of quoting you a price for equipping
your new cars with these couplers should you be willing to
entertain the idea .
Trusting that we shall hear further from you
in this respect, we beg to remain,
Yours very truly,

Mro Eugene McAuliffe, Presidentp
The Union Pacific Coar Company,
1416 Dodge Street,
Omaha, Nebraska.
Dear Mro McAuliffe:V{e have this morning received your formal notification of our being awarded the contract f or construction of steel
tipple at your D. o. Clark 1iine, and the Allen &amp; Garcia company
organization wishes to thank you sincerely for this opportunity
of serving you, and assure you of our intention to execute the
contract fully and t o our best ability.
We have also received from you the new revised set
of specifications embodying the minor amendments which were agreed
to verbally in Omaha, and will follow them in laying out our work.
The changes we expect to make in the design as it now stands, will
be solely for the purpose of substituting our patented crank shaft
screen drive and pendulum hangers for the Murray drive originally
set up Gn the prints and specifications.
If you will recall, there was some discussion regarding the concrete work at the mouth of the slope and upon our return to Chicago, we checked into the drawings and specifications
and find that this portion of the concrete work was included under
~~ \ .' the belt conveyor plans and specifications .
Upon referring to your
~ drawing No.214632-C, you will find where they have been detailed
) and if you will check over the quantities of concrete required un, der both divisions, you will find this ?a:dage was included in the .
{ belt conveyor system. Under these conditions we believe that you
\., will agree tha~ this part of the work should be handled by Link- Belt
Campany, or if you prefer to have it handled by us, it should be de
{ ducted f~om the be;t conv~yor quotation and re-a~signed to the tip-ple portion. We will await your further advice in this respect be
fore doing anything further with this portion..
We will also reduce the space between the inside column
of the domestic f'uel bin and railroad cars on the lump track from
9'6" to 9'0", in order to provide 9' clearance between center line
of the passing track and outer end of t~pple columns.

Mr. Eugene McAuliffe, President
Union Pacific Ooal Company
326 Union Pacific Building
1416 Dodge Street
Omaha, Nebraska
Dear Mr o LlcAulif fe :
Recentl y I talked with you in your offi ce regarding the contract you plan to let soon for a steel
tipple and a conveyo r belt.
You wi ll recall that you gave me a list of
four contracting firms who are bidding on this business
and you asked me what our company, the St. Paul Mercury
Inder.o.nity Company, \1ould do in the way of r a te on this
business.

I am advised by my Home offi~e now that the
conference rate on this business is 1½~ of the contract
price regardless of the penalty of the bond.
Our rate on this class of business will be
1,~ applied in the same fashion as the conference rate
that is against the contract price.
'
• I believe oui rate of 1%is the lowest you will
find on this class of work and while I cannot tell you
definitely that we would write a bond for all of the
contractors bidding, I feel rather confident that they
will qualify for a bond should they get the job . .
What we would like to ask is that in case you
consider us for the bond _we be permitted to look over
the last financial statement of the successful bidder
upon which we can promptly make a decision as to whether
we would executeas. surety or not.
I hope that this rate is agreeable and wi ll be
of some benefit to you and I should like very l.!lUCh to
take care of this business at the tiwe it c)mes up.

Er o Eugene McA.uliffe,
P reso, The Union Pacific Coal Co.,
14:16 Dod-ge St., Omaha., Nebras..1&lt;a..
Dear 11:i: . McAuJ.i ffe :

Ue recently received through your Vice
President eJl&lt;l General. Manager, Ur. :Pryci.e, t he complete pl ans,
specifications ano:Bi dding Forms for t he neu ~ipple, Belt Conveyor
System, etc. for y ou:r Clo.rk 1.iine a t Superior, ~7yoming. Ur.
Pryde sta'ced tha:t 3:rcy· furtner correspondence regarding t his r..e't'i
p l ant shouJ.d be adclressed to you at Omaha.
lTJ?On receiving all this da'co. from ilr. Pryde I went over t he plP..ns,
both for the t i pule and for the conveying and oth er equin~ent uithin
the mine and d~o t~e three different p ropo sal f orms, one f or the
Tiz:&gt;le, ~ne for t he Conveyor and other equipment under ground, and
one for a combined proposal for both of t h e above propose.ls.
I im.~ ediately noted t ~o.t both the plens and specifications were very
cooplete in every detail and did not 1•equire nor permit any engir:eering ~~ggestions by bidders. T"nerefore it appeared to me that it
nas not a. plant on which there riOuJ.d be much opi:iortuni ty for us to
use our ability as engineers nor to ap? lY our very excellent
equ.ipoent developed t hrough long years of e:x:pei·ience. It seemed. to
be a j ob just for a contractor.
Rowover, I tunled aJ.l the a.ate. over to our Engineering Department
e.12d asked two of our best engineers to review the pla.no and specificati on:::; ca.reftlly end report back to me on the advisability of our
au.c~itti~ a ~roposition for your ne~ plant. I have just received
thi~ report and discussed the whol e matter m.th them. They advised
me t:i.1a.t not only are the plans complete in every detail, so tho.t no
enginee1·ing is required, but the equipment botl! for t h e tipple and
for the under-ground machinery is all specified as that of certain
mamife.cturers and therefore none of our fiine equipment can be usea,_
a s r.e assume that ycro. wich aJ.l bidders to be on the competitive ba .
b7 bidding strictly e.ccordirie; to your plans and specifications. 618
If' this e.sst.wipt i on is correct and ~ou would not agree to consider
any alternate proposal on our equipment, then it seems it TTOuld not
seem worth while for us to make a proposal.

compa.n1es in tms coun11ry, ue are going to sugg est t hat we shall
1:e very happy to submit an alternate at l east on the g rou:i1d equipment and for t ~e reasons stated below:
Our Rotary Dumps, Car Feeders, togethe1· with aJ.l the el ec·!iricaJ.
control for handling coupled-up trips through t he Rotary Dump a.re
recogni~ed as not only the best but the cheapest to operate on the
n:.ai~ket and have b een used on many of the largest installationc built
in recent yearso

i
I

This equipment is enti~ely different from that designated in your
specificationr ~hich do~- not call for coupled-up duraping.
If you. will ref er to Coal Age for lfovember 1935, Page 4:55, you r,ill
find a descr}i:ption r;ith numerous illustrations of this equipment
furnished for the Harman Mine a t; Harman, Virginia. On page 456
you will see illustrations of this equipment for coupled-up ci:uropin:g •
As stated therein you will see t2is is for a very large mine which is
nou producing about 600 tons per hour a.-id '1'7here trips of up to 50 or
60 cars,averaging from 5 to 7 tons each a.re automatically handled
tl1.!'ow&gt;.;h this dump by one man, including the weighiDg of the cars.
I have uatched this equipment ope~ate on several visits to the mine
\?l1 en tl:.ey ,iere averaging 4 to 5 cars per minute t hrough the dump.
It has been in operation for two years and has been found not only
adeq11ate, but very economical in operation.
'2hi s is only one of many installations which we have installed in
-;;~e last feu yea.rs using this same equipment.
1{e

a.1·e enclosing tuo reprints showing the details of certain very
essential fee.tu.res of our dump from which you will note that these
essential parts of the dump are of the very highest quality and de~ign of machinery.
ve are also enclosing one sheet illustrating our el ectric reciprocating car feeder which is coupled- up and works automatically with
push button control by one Operator who weighs the coal. in addition to
opera.ting the dump, feeder, etc.

Please pardon me for writing you at this len,gth bu'ii it did seem
·to me that the opport'\.mi ty for you to conside1· -asing doubtless the
'best equipment for this purpose t hat is availo:ole, might be uell
worth while for such a mine as you a.re developingo
Lou maintenance
and reliability for continuous operation are vital factors in
selec·iiing such equipment, and our machinery has been pei•fected
to meet these vital requirementsa
We 'Shall aTiai t. your reply to our sugges·l;ion ni th much

My Dear UcAuliff:
Have just r e ceived youro of the 5th
advising that about September 15th you 't70uld complete your
data and ot her requirements for, opening up a neq mine and 17ou.ld
be asking for specifications and proposals for the construction
worko

t;e would be very happy to receive full information regarding
youx requirements for this ne't7 mine and submit plans, specific ations and proposa.l :for these improvements. TTe express our
hearty appreciation for this opportunity to compete for your
business.
You m.11 be happy I am sure to l?arn that. we have been very
successful during the past year in competing for such imnrovements, especially tipples and coal preparation plant s.
During this time we have bu.ilt several plants in Vest Virginia
Kentucky and western Pennsylvania including several of the
'
l argest and best plants which have been built for sometime.
During August we contracted with the Island Creek Coal Company
for a complete Coal Preparation Plant, including Tipple, l7et
Washery and our Air-Flow Cleaner for the fine coal. This is
the largest and most complete plant which baa been let for
at least a year and we are happy to have been successful in
securing the contract as the award was
based very largely on
.
the meetillg of very severe preparat ion r equirements.
i71 th kind personal regards, I am

You.rs sincerely,
