RAPID INCREASE OF
EXPORT COAL TRADE
Cause for Uneasiness Among
British Producers.
Four Million Tons Shipped From
the United States Annually.
Twenty-Five Per Cent of the Worlds
Entire Output Supplied by
This Country.

The announcement that the rapid in
crease in expectation of coal from the
United States is causing uneasiness among
British coal producers and exporters lends
interest to some figures ON the coal pro-
duction of the world and especially of
the United States, just issued by the Treas
ury Bureau of Statistics. From these it
appears that the coal production of the
United States is now nearly five times as
much as in 1870; that the expectation has
in that time increased from quarter OF
a million tons to over four million tons,
and that the United States which in 1876
supplied but II per cent of the worlds out
put now furnishes about 25 per cent
No other country shows such rapid
increase in coal production as does the
United States. Great Britains average
annual coal product, as shown by recent
and widely quoted statistical publication
of the Swedish government in the five
year period, 1S71-'T5. amounted TO 127 0OO,-
000 tons, and in 1S91-'95, amounted to 1S5,-
900, 900 TONS an increase of 45 per cent in
the average annual output. Germany's aV-
erage annual coal product in the period
1911 10 was 40, ,UUU,UuU tons, ana III tue HFe-
year period 1875 WAS 1900, 900 TONS an
increase of lis per cent. The average an
nual coal production OF France in the per-
iod 1871-'75 was $1,000, 900 tons and In the
term 1875, 27,000,000 tons, an increase
of 20 per cent
The average annual coal production of
the United States in the period of 1911 10
was *, ,000. 900 tons and in the period of
1875, according TO our own figures, was
1872, 900 600 tons, an increase OF 1873 per cent
The average annual output of other coun-
tries not individually specified was in
lS71-'75 81 900, ,000 tons, and in ls9l-'95 49,,
600, 900 tons, al increase OF 1872 per cent.
Thetotal average annual output of the
world in 1S11-75 was in round numbers
go, 600 900 tons and in lS91-'95 10000. 600
tons. an increase Of % per cent. Omitting
the United States, the annual output in
1871'75 averaged 22l 100000 tons and the
average in 1875 was 3SS, 900 900 tons, an
increase of IS per cent.
Comparing the growth of coal production
of the United States with other parts of
the world in the periods named, the rec
ord stands as follows

ASKS $50, 1000 IN ALIMoNY.
Mrs. Dexter Wants Her Marriage An
nuIied.


Bridgeport. March lS.-The annulment of
her marriage, which Mrs. Matilda S. DeX-
ter. of Danbury. seeks from her husband,
Byron Dexter the wealthiest hat manu-
facturer of Danbury. came up bzfore Judge
Elmer, of the superior court, yesterday
afternoon.
Mrs. Dexter asks net only for an annul-
ment Of he~ marriage, but for alimony TO
the extent of one-third of her husbands
estate demanding $50 600. Mrs Dexter
was formerly Mrs. Hiram Perry. and be-
came separated from her husband in 1872.
She married Byron Dexter September %,
1873. in North Salem. y. Y, the plaintiff
believing that her former husband was d-
vorceG from her at the time. But as a
matter of fact Hiram Perry did not get a
divorce until October %, 1875. one month
later. One child, daughter, has been
born to them.
Mrs. Dexter's ground for alimony is the
fact that in the early struggles of Mr..
Dexter she aided him materially in amass-
ing his wealth. Between 1880 and 1885 she
kept boarders and did dressmaking in or
der 10 support Mr.. Dexter and the family
and also worked in Dexter's factory as a
trimmer. Mr.. Dexter is worth $3.50 coo or
S2G0, ,000. and. according to the papers in
court, is said to have an income of ST., coo
year.
The couple separated in November, 1898,
at which time Mrs. Dexter, in the middle
of the night. ran from her home, clad only
in her night robe. TO the police station for
protection.
The case is contested by Mr.. Dexter only
so far as the alimony is concerned The
position of the counsel for Dexter brings
peculiar phase to the proceedings. as ii
follows from it that the child, a favorite
with Dexter, is not of legitimate birth.
She is a young lady. rather good looking,
and moves in good society

Increase, ls7l-'75 to 1875:

Both the area of coal production and
quantity produced have increased greatly
in the United States. In 1870 the number
CT States in which coal was produced was
but twenty, while in 1897 the number was
thirty-two. In 1870 the production of an
thracite coal was reported only from
Pennsylvania, while the census of 1880,
reports production in Pennsylvania, Rhode
Island. and Virginia, and more recent re-
ports show a production of anthracite coal
in Colorado and New Mexico. IN the
South the increase has been especially rap
i'd Alabama in 1870 mined but II 900 tons
of coal, and in 1897, IS, 1862 900 tons. Ken
lucky, which in 1870 mined but $50. 900 tons
of coal produced in: 1897 3.2l6.000 tons.
Tennessee increased her output from 133-
600 tons in 1870 to $500, 600 tons in 1897.
and Virginia, which produced but 1000
tons in 1870, produced 1.365,000 tons in
1897.
