One of the most important industrial
phenomena of the day is the sudden AMI
extraordinary demand in Europe for
American coal. Markets are now being
found for the American product in
countries which have heretofore been
exporters. and in countries which i'm
port their coal there is a rapidly in
creasing demand for the American ar
ticle. Russia is preparing to make in
ports from this country, French COM
pany has contracted for $4,000 tons for
early delivery, several cargoes have
been shipped to England. and more are
being engaged, Germany is already in
the market as a purchaser. and inquir-
les are coming from Holland, with
view to opening up the trade. In Ger
many the coal famine is one of the
chief topics of interest in business cir
cles. and in some of the German cities
the chambers of commerce have declar-
ed that unless there was some relief
manufacturing establishments would
have to be closed, and thousands Of OPP
eratives would be thrown out of EN-
ployment
Superficial observers have credited the
general scarcity OF coal throughout all
of Europe to the great strike in Austria.
and to the decrease in production in
England, said to be due in part to the
large numbers of coal miners who have
abandoned their work and gone with
the army to South Africa. Other observ-
ers do not coincide with this view, and
incline to the belief that the limit of
coal production in Europe has been
practically obtained, and that there is
little hope Of increasing the annual
product much above present figures In
the old collieries work is now being
prosecuted at very low levels. which ne
cessitates shorter hours OF labor on the
part OF the employees. and very much
enhanced cost Of production.
With the limit of production within
measurable distance, the demand by
reason of the present growth of all
forms of manufacturing industries il in
creasing at an extraordinary rate. 1t
has been often the subject of calcula-
ton how long the coal measures Of
Europe would last, figuring on a normal
increase in consumption. and the date
of ultimate exhaustion has always been
put in the very remote future. 1t is APP
parent that these figures will need re-
vision. for the increase In manufacture
ing has not been according to the nor
NAL increase in population, but has been
out of all proportion greater, and seems
about to increase In much greater
relative proportion in the near future.
The demand for American coal shows
that European requirements are already
in advance of the European supply, and
that the manufacturers of the Older
world have been compelled to look to
America for a portion of their present
supply and will be still more dependent

ANOTHER UNKNOWN WRECK.
And Another Crew Probably Lost Oh
New Foundland's Coast.

And Another Crew Probably Lost on
New Foundland's Coast.
st. Johns. N. F., Jan. 26.-News has
just been received that a large un-
known vessel went ashore on Foxtail
Point, in Bay st. George. Her spars
were all gone and q lot of wreckage
was along her side, but she showed no
sign of men or boats. A southeast
gale on Saturday drove the vessel of
the shore and the Ice prevented any
body getting near the wreck.
The latest details show that the
wreck is large vessel, probably Amer
lean, and has been on the rocks for
five days. Nobody seems to be on
board and no signs of boats are to be
seen about the wreck. The hull has
been sorely buffeted, either before or
after striking the coast, and such por-
tions of the wrecking as lined the
shore were split into fragments. The
stormy weather prevailing has pre-
vented boats from getting near the
wreck, and much ice is being formed in
the harbor, crashing about and threat
ening the safety of any vessel which
would put out. It is beyond reasonable
doubt that all on board have persisted,
though who the unfortunates were and
how many there were on board cannot
be determined.

ENGLAND AND JAPAN.
Japanese Len der Predicts War Against
Russia, France md Germany.

Ju ia n Sc Lea Ter predfcts war Against
Russia, France md Germany.
Ottawa, Jan. Ok. Hirata, recently
connected with the japanese war de-
partment and now travelling to be-
come acquainted with English speak
ing countries, made some highly sig
niticant statements yesterday regard
ing the relations Of Japan to current
events. Mr.. Hirata said:
1.-THE japanese people are strongly In
sympathy with Great Britain, and the
soldiers of Japan want to be sent to
South Africa to fight for the British.
Russia, France and Germany are at the
back of the Beers and in measure
waging war today against Great Brit
ain through the Beers. What they are
driving at is clear enough to well in
formed Asiatics. 1t is to SO weaken
the military power of the British in
South Africa that the strain shall COM
pei Great Britain to neglect the de-
Tense of India and her interests In
China.
British defeat in South Africa
means F'ranco-Russian march
through India. France and Russia are
making every preparation for it. With
her strained position in Africa and
crippled in India, what can Great Brit
ain do to oppose France, Russia and
Germany in China? Nothing without
Japan.
Russia and France are the natural
enemies of Japan. Our people will
never forget the injury inflicted on
Japan at the close Of the war between
Japan and China until that shameful
wrong is rectified, and ii will never be
rcctified without war"

: CnINA's NEW EMPEROR,
The Dowsser EsIrsss Forces In
Mine-Year-Old Boy.


The Dowaser EsIress Forces In .
Nine-Yesr-Oid Boy.
Pekin, Jan. 2s.-The imperial edict
issued Wednesday says that, owing to
the emperor's poor health. he Is unable
to conduct the business of state and
appoints Pu Chun, son Of Prince
Tuano, his heir. The emperor appar-
emily has been compelled by the dow
ager empress to abdicate about the
Chinese new year, though ie is under
stood this will meet with considerable
opposition in certain court circles. The
dowager, however, intends to carry out
the program which she hSj been plan
ming for years. The new emperor is
8 years old.
The father Of the new emperor is the
head Of the great secret societies
known as "The Great Sword" and 1.-The
Boxers" extending over the provinces
Of Chilli, Shan-Tung and Holman,
which were responsible for the MUIR
der of Mr.. Brookes, the missionary
Various edlcts have been issued with
a view Of assuaging public anxiety and
the ominous rumors respecting the
fate of the ex-emperor are spreading
widely. 1t is alleged that his dethrone-
ment was decided upon at a council
convened by the empress dowager on
Tuesday. The Manchu Clan favors the
change, but the Chinese proper oppose
1t and predict tremendous upheaval.
1t is believed that the Russian and
French legations were notified of the
impending change, and that they will
support the new regime.

THE MINERS DEADLOCKED.
Joint Scale Conference Splits Oh the
First Proposition Presented.

First Proposition Presented.
indianapolis, Jan. 26.-The first
meeting Of the joint scale committee
of the United Mine Workers Of Amer
lea and the Interstate Operators as
ISOLATION, which was held yesterday af-
ternoon and evening, resulted in a
deadlock, and no report will be forth
coming at the Joint session, which will
probably be called this afternoon. All
the members were present from the
competitive fields. The first demand
OF the miners was for mine run, which
the operators decline to entertain. The
matter was argued at great length and
finally an adjournment was had with
out reaching a solution of the matter.
The miners left. it is understood, to
report back to the delegates who re-
main in the city. Yesterdays meet
ing was in the nature of preliminary
skirmish, in which an attempt was
made by each side to have the other
show its hand.
The rs Iowa operators who came
with the expectation of being seated in
the joint conference left for their
homes yesterday. While some Of them
expressed disappointment, the opera
tors who remain here are Of the opin-
ion that they are pleased with the &C.
ton taken and really were Indifferent
as to whether or not they entered the
competitive field.

EXPLODING DYNAMITE
Kills Three Railroad Men at Ash
ley, q Suburb Of Wilkesbarre.
HEAVY DAMAGE TO PROPERTY.

The Explosion Was Caused BY
Runaway Train Crashing Into y
Car Loaded with the Explosive.
Ten Locomotives Wrecked.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, Jan. ga fearful
explosion of dynamite occurred in the
yards Of the Jersey Central railroad at
Ashley, a suburb of this city, at .
o'clock last night, which resulted In
the killing Of Patrick Mclaughlin, Of
Mauch Chunk, aged 27; Michael Bird.
aged az. Of Ashley; William Buckley,
Of this city, aged 20, and fatally in
Turing two unknown men. The dead
were all brakemen. Engineer John
Rehrig, Of Mauch Chunk, was badly
injured. Engineer John Roughley, Of
Ashley, who ran a side engine; was
severely scalded. William Brown, Of
Ashley, night boss at the round house;
Brakeman Thomas Rowe, Of Newtown,
and Flagman Michael Coyle, Of Ash
ley. were badly injured.
The accident was caused by the loss
of the control Of a heavy freight train
consisting of "a cars, which was COM
ing from Mauch Chunk to Ashley.
The train was in charge of Engineer
John Rehrig. At Laurel Run, while
descending the steep grade down the
mountain, control was lost and the
heavy train went laundering down in
tie direction of Ashley at tremen-
dous rate of speed. 1t had been RAIN
ing during the early evening, and the
tracks we're wet and slippery.
AT the foot of the mountain, Just
wbere tba Ashley Yards commence,
