COAL PRODUCTION.
Great Britain is the Largest Exporter
in the World

Coal production is increasing all over
the world and the United States leads the
increase with Great Britain a good second.
Great Britain, the other hand, is the
largest coal exporter in the world though
the United States is the largest producer.
The figures are given in special report
of the Department of Commerce and La
Dor, which says:
The latest statistics available of the coal
production of the world in 1905 put the
total at 929. 623 900 tons, as compared with
S6 021 COO tons in 1904, or an increase of
~ per cent.
Most Of the producing countries share
in the advance, the notable exceptions be-
Ing Belgium and Russia. The greatest gain
is exhibited by the United States. whose
output has jumped from 31S,276, 600 to 352, :
Co., 900 tons, or rise of 6A per cent.
America Is now ny far the largest producer.
though the United Kingdom is no mean
second and still remains the biggest ex-
porter The production of the United
Kingdom. according to British official fig
ures. was 239. $50 600, as against 236, 147,-
600 tons. or an advance of III per cent.
Germany, the third largest producer, mined
liz. 664, 600 tons. as against 169, 900 tons.
or a gain of ~ per cent. The output Of
India increased from 7,6s2,OC to 1922, 600

has grown from 6,S14.OO0 to 100000 tons,
and Of South Africa from 3.01500O to $780,

$500, 600 tons. A decline is shown in the
chief producing states of Australasia, New
South Wales and New Zealand The pro-
duction of Belgium has dropped from 3D.
$50 900 to 21,S44,0O0 tons. and of Russia
from 1931S,0O0 to 17.120,OOO tons. but the
exceptional factors that must be taken into
account in the latter case are of course
obvious.

SHIP SANK WITH ALL ABOARD.
Another Lake Vessel Foundered and

er City of Mackinaw, which arrived at Har-
Dor Beach today. The Mackinaw was some
distance away when the unknown steamer
foundered, and cruised about in the vicinity
for some time in the hope of rescuing some
of the crew, but in the darkness and storm
no trace of them could be found, nor any
clue to the identity of the vessel. !.
a dispatch from Cleveland last night
says: The old wooden steamer City of Con-.
cord, having three barges in tow, went
down Saturday night in the storm on Lake
Erie, off Huron, Ohio. Three of the crew
of tweve were drowned. The other nine,
after a terrible time in their yawl boat,
landed at Cedar Point at 2 O'Clock this
morning, and walked into Huron seven
hours later in an exhausted condition The
names of the drowned are Frank Peters,
fireman, Muskegon. Mich; John Wiser,
Waterman, Milwaukee,; Roy Wakefield,
deckhand, Sanilac, Mich
The City of Concord was built thirty-eight
years ago, but. notwithstanding her age, her
captain, Charles McEcheran of Buffalo put
out of this harbor in the face of the high
wind Saturday night with three barges in
tow. For several hours she was able to
proceed only a few miles from port. In
spite of the increasing storm. she made no
effort to return to this harbor. but late in
the afternoon steamed westward. This was
the last seen of the vessel until the news OF
the sinking reached here today.

A CONSUL'S WARNING
Against Striving for English Teach
ers' Positions in Italy.

A warning to Americans against attempt
ing to get positions as English teachers in
Italy has been issued by Consul Dunning
of Milan through the Department of Com
imeree and Labor. He has received some
inquiries in that line and like most con-
.suls abroad probably has had experience
with financially embarrassed Americans,
who apply to consulates for transportation
home enormously believing that there is a
fund for cases of this sort.
He says there are cases in which Ameri-
cans has secured positions in rich Italian
families to teach English, but the cases
are SO rare to warrant no one to rely
upon them indicative of possibilities,
much less probabilities. In the first place,
the wages paid by such people, even the
very rich, are not high. Italian nurses are
The wages paid them in Milan, for ex-
ample, are about 81 a day. In Rome the
rates run as high as in the United States.

On the whole. Consul Dunning would
warn his countrywomen and men from SO
precarious a course as is involved in try
ing to earn a living by teaching English
to the Italians in Italy. He says the cost
of living in ltaly-such living as people
used to in the United States-is high, rents,
food and clothing running as high they
do at home, Or even higher.

Its rathering amusing TO hear from the

charged by those corporations. Perhaps
now that the express business is under the

their complaints TO the Interstate Commerce
Commission with q statement OF the rate
charged and the facts about the shipment

TO light in the fight of the Adams Express
Company shareholders for larger dividends,
it was shown that that corporation had mil
lions of surplus and was earning nearly 40
per cent Evidently the rates of that cor.

MAINE ELECTION.

The result of the Maine election, held on
Monday last, should be repressive disap-
pointment to the Roosevelt administration.
In this heretofore uniformly Republican
State this time the Republican pluraities
have shrunk in such q degree as to give
hope to Democrats over the country that the
same unrest and detection exist throughout
the land in Republican ranks. The Re-
publican Governors plurality at this cleo
ton has been reduced TO 5000 from $1,000
In 1904, when the same persons represented
the two parties ss candidates for the govern
orship. Congressman Little6eld, the most
prominent representative from that State,

stumped the State and many times repeated
that any falling off of the usual Republican
pluralities would indicate dsapproval OF
the Federal Administration. They made use
of all the persuasive tricks they could con-
ceive to hoodwink the voters OF Maine, and
now the Republican partizans are asserting
with their accustomed trickery that their
reduced pluralities-a practical defeat-are
due to the prohibition question involved
in the election. The country vote sus-
tanned the Republicans, and the defec'
ton appeared in the cities. Augusta, the
capital Of the State, went slightly Demo
cratic, and 10 out OF the 20 cities Of the State
went largely likewise. Two years ago the
Republicans carried 10 OF the 20 cities. The
Democrats strength was considerably In
creased in the legislature also.

pennsylvania, and the exposure OF the I'M
psralleled rascalities of the insurance COM
panies of New York, produces sense Of
insecurity bordering on panic. All these
failures and betrayals Of trust by men of
high standing in the financial and religious
ranks of society indicate widespread de-
moralization. No man with money on de-
posit in bank can feel safe. II is not, OF
course, generally believed that all, or even
the greater number OF bankers. are dshon-
est but since many have been exposed as
thieves and worse, and since ell those who
have been exposed were men Of supposedly
high character, people begin to suspect
everybody connected with the business.
They begin to fear that our banking system,
State and National, is a snare instead of
citadel.
The Allegheny concern and the Walsh
concerns were all National banks, supposed
to be under the careful guardianship OF the
Comptroller of the Currency But their
failure shows that Federal Supervision of
banking is largely failure that Federal
inspectors of banking are about as lax as
those of Federal meat inspectors who su
pervised the packing houses of Chicago,
whose inspection was "fonetik" enough,
but by no meaus energetic enough.
The President ia directly responsible to
the people for the rascalities and inefficiency

duties instead of Handling Congress" and
preaching about large families and square
deals, and issuing proclamatlons about spell
ing, those who eat meat and deposit their
money IN banks would fare better.
