Statistics on Coal Supply.

According to Staustician Edward
w. Parker Of the United States geo
logical survey IL will be from $50 to
23O years before anthracite coal will
be exhausted In this country, although
were the present rate Of exhaustion
and waste to continue the end would
come In eighty years. But while he
anticipates some increase In this d.
reetion In the next decade. after that
ne looks for n marked tendency to
economize the supply. He notes the
interesting fact that, although the
production OF anthracite has not kept
pace with that Of bituminous coal. It
has increased faster than the popula-
ton In tho region where most Of IL is
consumed. In 1880. he says. 1.82 tons
OF anthracite were produced for each
Inhabitant Of the anthracite using por-
lion or the country. This was In.
creased to 2.47 tons per capita by 1890.
and In 1900 to 2.53 tons. Using the
entire population Of the United States
rs the basis the per capita production
of bituminous coal was .S5 ton In 1880.
l.76 tons in 1890 and 2.76 tons In 1900.
In 1860 two-thirds OF the coal produced
in the United States was Pennsyl.
vania anthracite. while In 1870 an.
.hracite constituted one-half tho total.
and for the last five years It has
amounted to about one-fifth.

SNOW AND ICE LAW
GOES INTO EFFECT
Jack Frost Arranges Things
for the Citizen.
POLICE UPON THE LOOKOUT
Sidewalks Well Strewn With Sand
Sawdust, and Ashes to Avoid
the Fine.

The new snow and ice law goes into
active operation today for the first time
since il was signed by the President.
Those who were fortunate enough TO
remember this fact this morning had
the sidewalks in front OF their houses
and unimproved lots sprinkled with
sand. sawdust, or some such substance.
Those who failed 20 comply with the
regulations are liable to a fine Of s. or
imprisonment in the wOrlohouse not
exceeding FIVE days.
In the case Of sleet, such as exists
today. the law does not require that Il
be removed from the sidewalks, as IT
was thought sprinkling with sand or
sawdust would be a sufficient precau-
tion against injury to pedestrians. But
this sprinkling, in order to relieve the
property owners from punishment.
must be done within the first four hours
Of daylight after the sleet has fallen.
Street Cleaners Active.
Although the law requires the Dis
trict government TO do no more than
the property owners i'm case of sleet,
Warner Stutler, superintendent OF
Street Cleaning. this morning sent out
his regular force of street cleaners
with instructions TO shovel the sleet
from the cross walks. This can be done
easily on account OF the smooth sur
face Of the asphalt streets. 1t would
be next to impossible to do II in the
case OF brick pavements.
This law is applicable only to those
sidewalks and premises that come with
in the FIRE limits. II is the duty OF the
police TO report TO headquarters all fall
as to comply with the regulations.
These reports viii be forwarded to the
Street Cleaning Department. and II the
sleet stays on the pavements until late
this afternoon men will be sent out to
sprinkle those sidewalks neglected by
the owners Of the abutting property.
The owners Will be called TO account
for their negligence a few days later
by fines in the Police Court or assess
ments against their property,

that France has not given any formal
declaration OF an attitude Of neutrality

yond a vague statement by Foreign Min

Mr.. KUMLER SPEAKS
FOR THE DEFENDANTS

Mr. Kumler opened for the defense in
the Machen trial this morning. He be-
gan by impressing upon the jury that
the defendants had the advantage Of
the presumption Of innocence and of
every reasonable doubt. He dwelt upon
the wrong that would be done II in
nocent persons were sent TO prison.
Passages were read from a standard
work I'm which numerous cases Of
wrongful conviction on circumstantial
evidence were cited. The case OF Eugene
Aram was referred to and the jury was
told how thirteen years later It was
proven by the confession Of another
man that Eugene Aram had been
wrongfully hanged.
