In the matter of copper the United
States produces 223,0O0 tons annually,
or more than one-half of the worlds

countries. IN other mining produc-
tions, the commercial value of which is
considerably greater than that of the
precious metals, the countries of Pan
America also lead the world During
the last year the coal output Of the
United States reached the enormous
