ALL RECORDS BEATEN
PRODUCTION OF COAL IN THE
UNITED STATES IN 1905.

According to the report of Edgewood w,
Parker. statistician of the United States
geological survey, the production of coal in
the United States in 1905 amounted to
1872 919341 short tons, having a value at
the mines of $476, 756. 963, surprising in both
quantity and value all previous records in
the history of the country. Compared with
1904. the output in 1905 exhibits an increase
of Al, 102, 943 short tons, or over IL per cent
in quantity, and of $50, 1856 $40 or over z
per cent in value.
OF the total production in 1905, II 659. $50
short tons were Pennsylvania anthracite,
with a value at the mines of Sal, $40 900.
The total production of bituminous coal
and Ignite was 315,259, 491 short tons,
valued at 1884, ST. 1863. The production Of
anthracite coal in Pennsylvania in 1905
was 4,503, 151 short tons more than that OF
1904, while the increase in the production
of bituminouS coal and Ignite was 80 ,599-
$50 short tons. A portion of these in
creases in both anthracite and bituminous
production is traced by Mr.. Parker to the
efforts of operating companies to provide a
supply of fuel in anticipation of a suspen-
sion of mining in April, 1906, when the
wage scale agreements In the organized
coal-producing states and the award of the
strike commission in the anthracite region
of Pennsylvania would terminate. In each
decade the output of the United States has
been practically doubled. The report shows
that there are 626174 men and boys em-
ployed in coal mining in the United States.
The larger part of the increased produce
ton in 1905 is credited to the great activ-
ity in the iron industry, is shown by the
fact that the amount OF coal made into
coke increased from 1,27S, 537 to 42,412, 328
short tons. and that the larger increases
were In the coking coal-producing states
and those which furnished fuel to the iron
furnaces

HOSTILITY OF CHINESE
FOREIGN INVESTMENTS APPEAR
TO BE UNwELcoME.

Mail advices received here from China
are disquieting to Americans having fnan-
cial interests in the orient. The country is
perfectly peaceful on the surface, but there
appears to be no abatement of the anti
foreign feeling. Although the external vio-
lence that originally characterized the anti
American boycott movement is now lack
ing. the spirit exists. IL is reported. in in
tensified form. The feeling of animosity is
no longer confined to Americans, but in
cludes all foreigners except japanese
formidable party has arisen and is con-
Quoting an active propaganda 1t is known
as 'restorer of rights and its purpose is
to drive foreigners out of business in China.
and to that end to begin by rendering VAL
ueless foreign investments In some quar-
tiers the Chinese government is alleged to
sympathize with the movement. at any
rate capitalists interested in important
concessions are complaining that the Chi
nese officials are destroying their holdings
and violating their agreements. More than
any other nationality. the English are said
to be injuriously affected by this attitude
of the Chinese government. The movement
to destroy or regain control of concessions
held by foreigners is said to have begun
when the famous HankowCanton railway
concession was regained by the Chinese
government by purchase from the Amer
lean concessionaires. and since then every
new enterprise in the way of public util-
tues In China has been Differed and
manned by Chinese themselves, foreign ex-
perience and direction being utilized only
to the point where the Chinese were able
to acquire the knowledge necessary to
operate them The English are complain
ing that in violation of an agreement the
Chinese go" "nrient is constructing a rail-
way from lnghai southwark. with the
purpose of destroying the value of an En-
glish concession and greatly njuring Hong
Kong, and there are allegations that min
ing concessions granted to British subjects
embarrassed.
Although the advices received here do not
indicate that any direct protest had been
made by the British government 10 the
Chinese government against its policy as to
the concessions. II is known that some Of
the great British business interests are
uniting in strong appeals to their govern
ment to adopt a stronger attitude and pro-
tect them in their Chinese enterprises.

was destroyed by fire in the mouth of the
Potomac river about nine months ago, has
been rebuilt at Baltimore shipyard and
was launched a few days ago. The work
of building the house on the hull, and In
stalling the machinery will be pushed and
1t is expected that the Emma will be able
to return to service as towboat on Chesa-
peake bay early in the winter. The Emma
was on her way from this city to Norfolk
with a tow of barges when she was burned
and while the woodwork of her deck house
was practically destroyed and the inside
of the hull damaged, the prompt sinking of
the vessel, by opening the sea plugs. saved
her machinery from damage by fire. This
has ali been given a thorough overhauIing
