The Clayton
Henry Clay Frick was one of the top executives in Andrew Carnegie's steel mills. He took every opportunity to crush labor unions.
Henry Clay Frick founded the H. C. Frick & Company, a coke manufacturing company. Coke in this context means the process of heating coal (the clumps of coal still attached to ore and clay dirt, so low grade coal that would be thrown out) in large beehive ovens out in fields to make "coke". This type of "coke" produced a long burning energy source used in steel mills. In Fayette County and Washington County, PA, there would be a line of 10-20 beehive ovens loaded and stoked 24-hours a day, every day, for nearby steel mills..Henry Clay Frick was also involved with Carnegie Steel, and was key to establishing U.S. Steel Corp., the biggest steel mill manufacturer in the U.S..
