Dear George:
I plan to arrive in your City)Monday morning, September
23rd. and would like to spend Monday and Tuesday visiting some of your operations where you are mining by mechanical means under a bad roof. If I recall correctly you
are working under rather adverse conditions over at Superior and are either using the shaking conveyor or scrapper loader, I believe the former.

If you are going to be_in I would be happy, indeed, to •
see you and if it is not convenient for you to be there,
will you arrange with someone to see that I don't get
lost during the two days I am there?
With kind personal regards,
I am

Dear Mr. Pryde:
~Ir. E. J. Gleim, Associate Electrical Engi~eer
of the Bureau. of Mines at Pittsburgh, is visiting coal mines
in Colorado, Wyoming, l'Jew Mexico and Utah to secure some
first hand information on the use of electricity in the mines
of these states. He is first visiting a nu.rnber of Colorado,
New Ivlexico, and Utah mines and would like very much to get
a good idea of the electrical practice at your Rock Springs
and Hanna operations. It seems probable that he will be
in Rock Springs shortly after July 4 and he will advise you
later the exact time of his arrival there.

I know Mr. Gleim and. Mr. McICeehan will have
many things of interest to discuss.
With kind personal regards
Very truly yours,

E ~-

Of

course, the mine will be idle, but they can probably run a duckbill

Great care should of course be exercised for the safety of

Dear Mr. Pryde.
As manager of the School of Mines
inspection trip and also in behalf of the students
and faculty who visited your mine at Rock Springs,
I wish to express the appreciation of all for the
way in which we were welcomed and shown through
the #8 mine. We will thank those who acted as
guides separately but we realize that all that was
done for our benefit was done either under your
direction or by your permission. It is through
cooperation of the sort which you extended to us
that our men can get a practical knowledge of mining
conditions etc, before they graduate which, of course,
is invaluable to them.
If we are permitted, we shall certainly
arrange our trip next year to include the Union
Pacific Coal Company at Rock Springs.

Dear :Mr. Pryde:
Mr. I. W. Carter, assist ant general pass.e nger agent,
has just informed me that the Colorado School of Mines' annual
Student Educational Trip has been awarded to the Union Pacific
:rrom Denver to Butte and return, and that the party will
amount to between twenty-five and thirty students.
1rr. Carter states that the business was practically
lost to the Union Pacific account desire of stopping at
Pueblo to visit the CF&amp;I plant, but through your kind
efforts and those of your Mr. Edgeworth, whom you arranged
to send to Denver, we were successful in controlling the
routing.

I assure you this is very much appreoiated and,
if at any time the Passenger Department is able to reciprocate
I hope you will not hesitate to oaJ.l on us.

Yours very truly,
