TO INCREASE H ARMY
ENOUGH MEN TO BE ENLISTED TO
MAKE A TOTAL OF 10000.
Decision Reached by the President
and Secretary Root-Changes i'm
the Transport Service.

WASHINGTON, April BIT has been
to increase the regular army
to approximately 10000 men and TO leave it
at that number unless conditions In the
Philippines should. make more troops nee
essary. The President and Secretary Root
reached this conclusion to-day and the
details will be worked out by the secre-
tary and General Miles. The number of Of
fcers appointed will be as originally con-
templated. The a~rtilley corps will be in
creased to its full strength of $4,000 men.
Some time ago ii was announced that the
companies of cavalry would contain sixty
five instead of eighty enlisted men and it
is expected the infantry companies also
will be reduced to bring the total to the
figure agreed upon. 1t has not yet been
etermined what proportion of the
troops shall be stationed in the Philippines.
although il is known hat a large force
will be needed there for some time.

COAL PRODUCTION AND EXPORTS.

The announcement Of a prospective ex-
port tax Of % cents per ton on English coal
has brought out some interesting statistics
regarding the coal trade. The time was
when cotton was king. but that was before
American manufacturing had assumed its
present place of leadership. Now coal is
king. This is true in a double sense, for
coal is the basis Of naval as well as of COM
mercial supremacy. Wooden ships with
cotton sails have given way to iron and
steel-clad vessels propelled by steam pro-
duced by coal. The material that furnishes
the motive power for fighting machines
does the same for the disseminators of
trade. Coal is king in war as well as in
peace. It's production in the United States
has kept even pace with the development of
manufactures and OF our naval power. The
fact that the American coal field is far
more extensive than that of any other
country is the most positive assurance OF
her future supremacy. The coal field OF the
United States embraces 1914. 600 square miles.
as against 1900 in Russia. 1900 in Great
Britain, $500 in Germany, $500 in France
and 1.4OO in Belgium. Spain and other Euro
pean countries. Yet Great Britain and Ger
many. with their very small coal fields.
compared with the United States, both ex-
coed us i'm their exports of coal. though not
In their production. In point of production
this country stands first. That we should
produce more coal than any other country
and export less than Great Britain or Ger
many, and not much more than little Bel
GUM. shows that the bulk of our product
Is consumed at home-a very clear proof OF
the growth of home industries and the ex-
this demand is. the production of coal from
our almost boundless field has outrun il,
and now American coal is being exported
at a rate that is rapidly overtakins and will
soon surpass that of Great Britain or Ger
many. That Great Britain. with her small
coal field, should have been able TO supply
featuring industries and at the same time
far exceed any other country In her exports
of coal. is splendid proof of the enterprise
of her people. But the day of her SUI
premacy in exports of coal will soon pass,
as the day of her leadership in production
already has. In this as in other respects
the United States is the coming country,
and it is probable the new export tax of %
cents a ton on British coal will hasten the
day.
