LESS HAZING AT THE
NAVAL ACADEMY
Supt. Mills Says Reform in Discipline
Is Being Made Per-
manent.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 16.-Col.
A. L. Mills, superintendent of the
United States military academy, has
made his annual report to the secre-
tary of war. He says that the disci-
pine of the corps of cadets of the
academy has been very satisfactory
throughout the year. He makes the
following reference to haZing:
During the year there has been no
relaxation of proper efforts to make
permanent the reforms already ac-
connplished bearing on the treatment
accorded new cadets by their older
comrades. The regulations governing
the subject have been carefully en-
forced and with but a single excep-
ton that is worthy of note cadets have
shown a soldierly regard for their OBJ
legations in the matter.
1.-THE exception referred to-the first
under the new regulations-is that of
a cadet, who, without authority, made
a fourth class man assume a con-
strained position and used threatening
and abusive language to him. For this
offense the cadet was brought to trial
by ccurt-martial, and, being found
guilty, was dismissed. No one con-
Versapt with the progress new cadets
now make apprehends any Ill effect in
training from the passing Of hazing."
The maximum number Of cadets is
1872. The academic year opens with
All cadets, divided into four classes.
One cadet is from Costa Rica and one
from Venezuela. AS a result of the eX-
animation for admission during the
last year the incoming class was 11S.

MOST COAL PRODUCED
In THIS COUNTRY
United States Greatly Outstrips Great
Britain, Which Led Prior
to 1899.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 16.-The
United States geological survey esti-
mates the worlds production of coal
in 1901 at 866,165,540 short tons. The
three great producing countries
of the world are the United States,
Great Britain and Germany, Austria
Belgium sixth and Russia seventh.
The last country, Notwithstanding it's
vast area, produces only about per
cent as much coal as the United States.
Prior to 1899 Great Britain led
among the worlds coal producers, but
during 1899, 1900 and 1901 the United
States has made such remarkable in
creases in coal production, due prin-
cipally to the unprecedented activity
in the iron and steel and other metal
trades, that it now stands far in the
lead of all competitors, with a produc-
ton in 1901 exceeding that Of Great
Britain by 47,965,93S short tons, or 10
per cent. Up to the close of 1900 the
coal production Of Great Britain and
her colonies, taken together, still ex-
ceeded that of the United States, the
excess in 1900 being 3,36S,S25 short
tons, but the enormous output Of the
coal mines of this country last year
exceeded by about $4,000 short tons
the entire output Of Great Britain and
her dependencies, including India and
the TranSvaal.
Of the output of coal in 1901, the
United States produced 1886 per cent.
Great Britain and her dependencies,
30.S6 per cent, and Germany 1912 per
cent, or combined, 84.14 per cent of
the total production.

energetic action of the police.
AS the time for filing the convention
nomination expired at o'clock today,
the delegates will not reconVene, and
the Democrats must resort to nomina-
ton papers to be filed before 5 p. m.
tomorrow. The district is overwhelm-
ingly Democratic. 1t is remodeled from
the old Ninth, long represented by
John r. Fitzgerald, who at one time
had the distinction of being New Eng
lands only Democratic congressman.
The failure to nominate today was
not unexpected. Five times the con-
vention sat, and in total of AZ ballots
taken, the vote of 1913 delegates scarce
ly varied from 81 for Congressman
Joseph A. Conry, 81 for ex-senator
John A. Keliher and so for Joseph A.
Dennison.
