Dering Coal Company Forms With Frisco Backing
John R. Walsh notes the creation of the Dering Coal Company of Chicago with 5 million dollars in capitalization. Twelve Indiana mines have been acquired and will be operated by the company, promoted by J. K. Dering, a Chicago coal shipper. The Frisco railway system is said to back the venture, with Mines located along the Chicago & Eastern Illinois and the Evansville & Terre Haute lines.
