But the facilities for handling the Rus
sian product are crude, costly and w~asteful
and the markets are far away.
IL is said that three and a half barrels
OF oil equals one ton of Russian coal. which
is high-priced and inferior in quality, and
it is only the irregular supply and the
fiuctuating price which prevents the sale
OF larger quantities OF fuel oil in the in
terror OF Russia.
During 1900 Russia produced about H.
500, 900 short tons of coal, the higher grades
Of which sell from 81 to 50 per ton. Dur
ing the same year the United States pro.
duced about go. 900, 900 short tons.
All the countries bordering on the Medi.
terranean are poorly supplied with fuel, go
