Dear Sir:
Due to the fact that the date of final
aocepta.noe on the Do O. Clark Mine at Superior» Wyoming
has been postponed about a month, we don 9 t feel that it
is fair to ask the Allen &amp; Garcia Company to continue
with their carrying full insurance on this projecto We
are asking that the Union Pacific Coal Company either
take out their own 1nsuranee for the next month or reimburse lllS with the actual cost and we t.dll then keep
Qurs in force.,
Very tru+y yours 0

Dear Mr. ilcAuliffe:·:. e were happy to get your letter of the 11th,
advising that you ha d l ooked over the Superior job and
find it satisfa ctory, and also advising that you have arranged t o clean up payments to this company res erving approximately ~·5,000oOO. This a ction is very much a ppreci ated a nd is very nice of you to do it.
I have a notion t ha t when the coal is running
over the t i pple that fishing ,vi l l be good at Jackson Hole
and I might be the man or one of the men representing
A. &amp; G. .,!tompany when the final inspection is made.

Dear Mr o McAuliffe:

/

r

Owing to the Ulness of Mr. Kauffmann, nho
has been in the hospital for several neeks, it is
my privilege to acknowledge your letter of April 29tho
We have a very keen appreciation of the
soundness of ~he philosoplv' and the ethics under~ g your ~easoning in the negotiations leading up
to the placing
of the contracts for the equipment
,.
for your/ mine at Rock Springs. If all engineering
installations
for material handling equipment were
,
handled in a manner similar to the one you :followed,
the )ire of the manufacturer would be a happier one
~ the operators wou1d be better satisfied. It
/ _w.d permit the maximum of econonu in prices.
You are familiar, of course, from your broad
experience, with the hazards which accompaey construction work of the character you are now doing. By
following the poliq- of working up complete gene.ral
deaigns and specifications, as you did in the case of
the Rock Springs installation, it definite~ hel.ps to
min1rn1 ze the hazards usual.4r associated witll work of
this character.

I am sorrr the charge for extras which has been
the subject of an interchange of correspondence between
Mr. Livingston and Jlr. Huntington has antagonized you.
We are cancelling the charge even though it is att.ributa.ble to an error in the tundame11tal la_,.out .. However,
we have the vecy definite conviction that the errors

on this job will be reduced to a minimum due to the

organizationo

Dear Mr. McAuliffe:-

I feel that your attention should be called to
an item of additional expense which has recently been imposed upon us in connection with our work for your company namely, the increase in frei ght rates which went into effect
l ast March 28th, 1938.
It appears to us that even though we have ''bought 11
the work we are now doing for you, such relationship should
not be co.nstrued as e. gamble. \'.'e have not e.nd do not intend
to ask f~r extras, but our sense of the ethics in this business prompts us to say that the acts of God and the Interstate
Commeirce Commission should be paid for by the ultimate purcha,.ser. l:e just today paid our first freight bill with the
1 %increase which forcibly brought this matter to our attenon. As a result, I would appreciate hearing your re-action
n this matter at your convenience.

With kindest personal regards, I am,
Yours very truly,

Dear Sir:
Vle have the fabrication and erection of co nsi derable 111aterial
on the tipple \7hich .Allen &amp; Garci a has contract v:ith you .
The wri ter was talking to ;,Lr . Garcia thi s \7eek about our erec-

tion men , cmd ue in tend to s et'"ld non-union men, a nd very likely
t hey vli. 11 }Ii ck up a f e\7 ao.cd t ion al lo cal Iuen .
It is our int entions to send a derrick ,1ith a 90' boom, and
set this alon i:&gt; the tr·ack, near the oui ldi ng and erect as the
material arrives . Also we ,,ill have a com1,Jressor, Ytelding
equi 11rnen t aria necessary tools. In case th. ere is a ny of this
ua teri a l on the ground nhi ch ,.,e coula r ent , it might be ch eap er
fo r U£ to 1· e:1 t , ,t&gt;a1·ti cul arly a compressor.
At presen t it iz our arr anbements to shi p the fi rst car from
l:ieu Castle, Indiana, having it arrive aoout the 30th of April,
so that ,1e can start our erection fr.e f irst 01 second . Our
men feel that your mine being back :tro111 any large city, that
they wi 11, very lil&lt;ely , work Sundays, as the.) are a long way
fro m h ome and cio not r;i sh to stay any longer than necessary.
For the insta llation of the concrete floor v,e a re in tending to
6 et some nearby concrete man , and will a.sk for 1&gt;rice at present
from the Kello 5 g Lumber Com,t&gt;anY, who is aoing t h e \7ork for
Allen &amp; Garcia, a.no if vie can make it ',: ith their figure ue will
co so.

·,:e y;ould appreciate any connnents you ho.ve. as we believe your
being on the job, ,:ou l d knov, more c;;.oout conci. tions than \·1e.

I am indeed proud of the small par t I may have played

Dear Sir:

Union Pacific Coa l Company .
Link Belt Company.

Ref er ring to the above and to your wire of even date i n
reference to same , in the first place want to say that we have
certainly taken up a great deal of your time in this matter, but
cons ider ing our relations and the enormous traffic we have been
gi v ing, and expect to continue to give , to the Union Pacific, that
we are not asking too much ror you to give us full recognition.
We have had up several times today with the Link Belt people
and finally t hese people have agreed to use Allis Chalmers motors ,
provided Westinghouse control is satisfactory to the Uni on Pacific
Coal Company.
Now this is the whole proposition, and if you will be good
enough to take up with Mr. McAuliffe and then wire the Link Belt
people your acceptance of this proposition we will be much obliged
to you.
Appreciating your very best attention, I remain,
Yours very truly,

~in~-Bel t Company's proposal f or change in

esign of car feeders_and tri p makers at

No • 7 and No . 1 5 L

oad1ng Stat i on' ll. o . Clark Min e.

We have examined Link-Belt Company's layout prints
!Jo. C0-56206

and C0-55207, and find t.l-iat the desi €,l'l do es not
fit our oondi t ions .,...,d
does not confoxm to specification s set
&lt;a!.U

up for this equipment.

After due consideration o-£ this mattez-,

tre have decided that the economical and acceptable procedure
is to develop a snall room i n the rib at dri ve e.11d of both car

feeder ancl trip maker, the car feeder to be a right-hand
drive and trip m81cer 2. l ef't-hand drive.

'.fue co st of driving

said rooms are to be bome by T.he Union Pacific Coal Company
and eliminate non-de:aire.ble extra co s t s set up by the LinkBelt Company .
T'..ae desic,:i of drives set -up by Link-.Bel t Company
does not conf'orm in that motor and speed reducer are to be set
on a styl e B bed plate uith ou tbo ard b earing c arrying pinion

Dear 1-rr. Pryde :
\'/~. a~e enclosing our blue prints C0-55206 and C0-55207

evel s Nos. 7 and 1 5 and for empty mine car hauls at

You ;•;ill not e that the driving machinery has been rearran ed
to that sho vm on your blue print 2146-32K and Allen cl: Gar~ia
blue l) rin t Nos. 115U- i.:-l and 1150 -li-2.
When lur. Livingston ,·1as in Chicai;u recen tly, these changes
were discussed and the reason for the changes fully explained.
Should the oachinery be installed exactly t.o your layouts
i t would be necessary for you to provide ·adcii tiona l room
in your entries to accommodate the arrangement and this
,·1ould be costly inasmuch as your steel ,!O rk is nov, in place
and i t yrould also involve shooting out the rock
in the side
11
uall for each haul, to the extent of about 24 extra width
to your present en try, as well as ~ddi tional height and
length alon g the side uall to pronde clearance for the
machinery and access to same.
BY the rea rrangement as shown on our blue print C0-55206
covering loaded mii:ie car hauls, ~,e have been able to ,·,ork
in tne machinery vrlthout disturbing your entry '\"falls, uhile
on bl.ue print co-55ro7 covering empty mine car feeder hauls
the entry wal.ls are not disturbed to any appreciable amount
and i t ml.l only mean trimming off about 6" of the face of the
side wall.a to pennit the rearrangement to y;ork in.
In arranging the ~achinery ~s described above, one
additional
11
bearing, one nex1.ble coupling ~d an_extra 6'6 length of
_1,5/l.6" diameter shaft are required_ in the case of each
3loaded trip feeder haul, ::Jid one additional bearing , one
11
flexible coupl~ng dat~d :
extra 6f'6 length of 3-7/16" diameter
shaft are require in
