WEST VIRGINIA
TO Be SECOND
In Country in Coal Production Says
the Report Of the Government
Geological Survey.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Nov. 70
The total production Of coal during
1905. in Illinois. was ss.4s4.sss
short tons, With a spot value of s4o,-
ST.. 5s2, according to report made
to the geological survey by E. W.
Parker, Of the United States Geo
logiea lsurvey- Illinois still ranks
next to Pennsylvania in the produc-
ton of coal. The production in
West Virginia in 1905 was s7.7s1.-
$50 short tons. The report says the
expectation is that the returns for
1906 will show West Virginia to be
the second coal producing state in
the Union from the fact that the
Illinois mines suffered from shut
down last spring while those of West
Virginia for the most part were kept
gcing continuously.

Extensive Oil Fields
in Trinidad.
H. cuNNINGHAM-cRAIG. an
nglishman, in a paper on the


~ Englishman, in a paper on the
'Oil Fields of Trinidad points
cut that there is in Trinidad an
oil field of at least 500 square miles, at
a conservative estimate which has
never been adequately tested In any
part and over large part of this area
a production of oil could be confidently
expected. Much of the ground has been
carefully examined, the geological
structure proved, and the outeroRs of
the oil bearing strata mapped. 1t only
remains to make the actual experiment
tai borings. Derricks can be placed SO
as to strike the oil rocks at any depth
considered most convenient, but it can
not be estimated how much oil would
be obtained.
That the oil fields will be successful
the evidence the author has gathered
during the last two and a half years
does not allow him to doubt, but how
important the industry may become is
a matter upon which 1t would be vain
to speculate at present At the least a
new and valuable asset of the empire
is waiting for exploitation.
