Great Britain. with an estimated coal
supply for only 200 years, has been ex-
porting 53.0oo.oa0 tons annually. The
British public has been looking upon
this with disfayor. An export tax upon
the product is anticipated. and In the
event of it tie Mediterranean ports

their fuel. Already the United States
has been supplying the best ceal for
use in naval vessels.
In Europe coal deposits cover 81 600
square miles In Russia, 5000 in Grea
Britain, 1900 In Germany, 1900 in
France, and In all the rest of Europe
are only 1,4o0 square miles. In Great

In Maryland the famous Cumber-
land coal is produced, but this is de-
cidcdly soft, breaking into small pieces
rather than crumbling, yet not in favor
with foreign consumers notwithstand-
| ing its richness in fuel properties The
| foreign trade demands lumpy coal,
and for that reason the Cumberland can
be left out of calculations concerning
export trade. n-rl ,-sA.
In West Virginia three important rail-
road lines handle the products of the
Elk Garden and Fairmont regions--in
which Senators Davis and Ellsins are
|, widely interested--the New River and
Kanawha districts, and the Pocahontas
regions. OF these sections the New
River, the Fairmont, and the Elk Gar
dem mines promise to contribute the
greater share of the States coal for ex.
port. The Pocahontass coal, however
will be in limited but strong demand
for naval steaming. In Alabama the
coal fields lie In the northern part of
the State, near Birmingham, and the
way of outlet will be through Mobile

+. With these Goals from these States,
and paying even. S. n ton for ocean
freights, the American shipper may
have a margin Of $1.56 profit at Glib,
raltar, $2.2G at Marseilles, and $26S at
Naples, in addition to the profit in the
home price of $3.50 a ton. Yet this
freight charge. is vastly greater than
would hold if colliers, especially con-
structed, were to do the carrying.
All of the possibilities leading to this
new exploiting of American coal have
found source in the high rates of
| freight in Great Britain, the cost of
mining, and in the unmistakable limita-
ton of the coal supply. The foreign
production of coal is not decreasing, of
course: it is increasing steadily.

No Demand for Anthracite.
The United States coal which is to re.
place the product of England and
Wales in the markets of the world is
the soft coal of PENNSYLVANIA, West
Virginia, and Alabama. Anthracite
coal has practically no opportunity for
foreign exploitation at the present time
or III the near future. 1t is Il fuel so
much different from the coal that for.
eign consumers have been accustomed
to using that they are not at all in
elihed to take 1t up. neeessitatlng, as it
does, the use of new CRATES or new
stoves and entirely different methods
of firing. Only the several varieties of
soft conl now finding market abroad
need be considered.
In Pennsylvania there Is produced
for the seaboard trade what is known
as Clearfield coal, originating mostly on
the line of the Pennsylvania railroad,

Further TO the westward Is the Pitts
burg district, closely centerlng about
the metropolis of the western portion of
.he State. Some coal from the eastern
portion of this district reaches tide
water by rail over the Pennsylvania,
but the hopes of those who expect an
export business in PittsDurg coal are
based upon the fact that during certain
portions of the year cheap transporta-
ton to the port of New Orleans may be
by way of the Ohio and Mississippi
Rivers.

Funeral March.

Director SOrrentinO COmposes a New
Funeral March.
The Verdi programme given by the
Banda Rosa yesterday afternoon, and
the popular concert of last evening, both
proved very pleasing attractions, and the
audiences were large in both events.
Special attention was paid to the two
numbers by a well-known local compos-
er, Charles j. Tarbox, of st. Paul. The
compositions by Mr.. TarboX were his
Sentinel March" and 'The Bandmaster.''
Sorrentino handled both with a master
touch and brought out the best there
was in the work. A great many of Mr.
Tarboxs friends and admirers were pres
ent, but the applause which followed the
rendering of the two pieces was spon-
taneous on the part of the entire audi
ence THE Bandinaster' has been heard
at Lake Harriet once before, Sorrentino
having given ii as an encore during the
afternoon concert of last Saturday.
1t will be of interest to admirers OF
the Italian director to know that he mas
composed funeral march to be played
on the day of King Humbert's burial.
Signor Sorrentino wrote on this march
all Monday night, and at 10 o'clock
Tuesday morning had completed it. The
new composition is now in rehearsal.
The band will give a German concert
this afternoon and a French concert to-
night. Tomorrow night the evening con-
cert will be followed by a superb fire
work display, arranged on an even more
elaborate scale than the last. There Will
be Rossini concert on Friday evening
and two Wagner concerts will be given
on Saturday, afternoon and evening.

INDEPENDENCE OF DUsE.
Famous Actress Objects to Notoriety
or the Stage


OFF the Stage.
Of late the name of Duse, the actress
has been brought into rather unpleasant
prominence in connection with the au-
thor Gabriells D AnnunZio. Hers is a
somewhat new side of life, as shown in
The King" From earliest childhood
Duse has known no other life than that
of the stage. Before she was twelve
years old she was an active member of a
strolllng company TO which her father
of schools she learned all that She knows
of dramatic art. At sixteen she played
Shakespeare's Juliet, and since then sac
has never hesitated to interpret the Vre-
aioPs of dramatists of many moods and
many countries. She has made the clas-
sic characters of the Italian stage her
own, and she has taken from the German
stage the Magda," of Suderman; from
the French stage, the Femme de
Claude" of Dumas, and from the Nor
wegian stage the DOLLS House, OF ID
sen. Over sixteen years ago she became
the rage of Rome, and since then her
position in Italy has been unQuestloned.
Bat of Duse herself the world kows
little. Except in the theater she keeps
and does not hesitate TO rebuke those
who seek curiously and impertinently her
personal acquaintance. Some years ago,
during a performance of "Magda" at
Stuttgart the king of Wurtemberg sum
moned her manager, saying: You will
tell Nine. Duse that I am profoundly i'm
peSSed by ner performance, and tnat L
shall give myself the pleasure of 1Vsit-
ing her in her dressing room immediate
ly." The manager fastened to his star,
repeated the message through the key
hole and received the following reply:
Tell his majesty that l am very CRATE
full for his compliment, f1attered rs his
attention. but tell him, also, that l feel
just as much honOred by hearing it from
you: can't see him because I am dress
ing" In the meantime the king was
approaching and received his answer
Then I'll wait" he responded blandly.
IF you do" said Duse through the
door, you'll have to wait outside as
long as I stay inside your majesty, for
!, shall not come out while you are
there"
The king waited half an hour, and
knocking, received the reply that Duse
was dressing. At last, realizing that
he was delaying the performance, he re-
turned to his box, and the play pro-
ceeded.
Since then he has not hesitated to treat
distinguished and undistinguished inter
lopers alike with equal. rigor, although
Is said that the passing years have
somewhat softened the asperity and
Rloefness of his erratic moods.
