AMERICAN COAL ABROAD.

From advance sheets of consular reports.
For some time past the German press has been

Steamship Company, recently gave an interview on
this subject the editor of Kirchhors Techniseha

European coal market. but will doubtless affect it
within reasonable space Of time A direct impor-

ADVANTAGE possessed by the American coal due to
the lower cost of mining This freight viii re-

price of the coal would naturally be increased by
the cost Of the freight but even here the United

ADJUSTMENTS IN THE CAPITAL.
Everybody who can flee from the city in the

For them some amusement must be offered, and
this is chiefly found in the summer gardens. of
which there are several in the suburbs One of
these is named the Geological Garden, another the
Aquarium, and a third the Arcadia. The first two

their names to imply. but with outdoor and

DIVERSIONS IN RUSSIA.
THE NATION LACKS OUTDOOR SPORTS
FEW SUMMER ADJUSTMENTS.

St Petersburg, Sept 26 (SpeciaD-The summer
diversions of all ranks of st. Petersburg society
are interesting to note. since they throw certain
light the present state of Russian development
This city. like other large is deserted at
this time of the year by the upper classes. Many
Of them travel abroad. Mr. Witte. the Minister Of
Finance deplores the fact that about seventy mill
ions of rubles annually spent by the upper
classes Of Russian society in foreign countries
While 1t hard that Russia should have her
gold taken out of the country-when she needs 1t
herein such wholesale manner probably the
general result of residence and travel abroad is
good for Russia The intelligent class of
Russians thus get and broader ideas, which
must help toward their national Development
whether they conscious of 1t not.
A large part of the nobility obliged to spend
the summer at their estates in the country but 1t
is q curious fact, and evidence of the widely dif
ferent point of view between Russian and Anglo
Saxon, that this is considered always one of the
most annoying of duties, and which the
average andowning noble is almost ashamed or
and shirks if he can. Country life in Russia never
seems to convey the same meaning to the Russian
New-York tribune., 1901-12-08

that it does to the Englishman, for instance. II
means a round of monotonous and uncongenial du-
ties which he would be only too glad to escape.
There be little OF the pleasant intercom-
munication between one estnte and another wh'ch
renders English country life charming and
which enables community to have mutual inter-
ests and to Join in sports and pleasures. Many OF
the estates so large that the nearest neighbor
Is miles away. Even moderate sized estate In
Russia Is large compared with moderate sized es-
tate anywhere else. To be a resident landowner
during the summer also generally means the over
seeing Of the property and the direction OF the
peasant laborers. This must be trying task in
Russia especially to a proprietor VINO IS trying 10
introduce improvements.
LITTLE SPORT IN RUSSIA
Not only the social element lacking, but the
Russians do not indulge IN sport do the Anglo
Saxons One cannot help being impressed by the
absolute dearth Of games which entail outdoor ex-
ercise or athletics of any kind Tennis has been
introduced by the English residents and is played
here by them well cricket. but there are few
Russian converts. Such games as football are prac-
tically unknown here Athletics form no part Of
the training OF the young student, except in such
schools as are provided with some indoor gym
nasum apparatus. There is none Of that healthful
emulation in sport between the various colleges
which characterizes the institutions Of England.
America and other countries. While one may be
glad that the inherent need OF exercise in all
young people has yet taken the form of student
dueing which seems to be priced in Germany.
the students would lead far moro normal exist
ence If they had physical outlet for their en-
ergy. There would probably be less political aglta-
ton among them.
Almost the only Russian game which is played
outdoors is called 'roohay." 1t consists In knock
