NEW YORK. sept. THE torrid
weather, the conspIcuonsness of the
Bryan shouters. thescenes about Mad
tson Square Garden with thousands
clamoring vainly for admission. the
novelty of the newcomers appearance
all recall to mind that equally torrid
night IN July, 1896, when William ].
Bryan made his first bow to an Amer.
can audience in the same nall. He
was then candidate of the Democra!
&c party for the Presidency and New
York was very anxious to. see what
the candidate looked like. The en-
thusiasm OF the crowds was beyond
recent parallel. 1t seemed as II Bryan
had won his way into the hearts Of
fasteners. He then termed New
York the enemy's country. In that
campaign Bryan filled to carry New
York county, which had never before
in the history of old voters gone Re-
publican in a square party fight He
carried in this Stale the single coun-
ty of schoharie. where he had never
skopen or been seen, and the great
Bryan enthusiasm was seen to aaye
been little else than the natural de-
velopment of popular curiosity.
Calculations of Bryan's strength as
Presidential candidate based upon
the remarkable scenes in New York
city Thursday may easily mislead. The
enthusiasm was largely mported'from
the West and the South, especially the
South, where all Democratic Presl-
Dental candidates are accepted with:
out question or bubble. To conclude
from the wonderful demonstration
over Bryan that ne is nearer the
White House than he was in 1886
may be a very false deduction. He
has to reckon with the test of his
programme in the cool judgment of
the American people, rather than upon
the attractiveness Of his personality
among adherents selected from many
States.
As an attraction, Bryan the speaker
is still potent, even in New York. His
views on great public questions are
matters with which the American peO-
pie have to concern themselves at the
polls. rather than with the rounded
periods of the orator, who is believed
to have been broadened by travel in
foreign lands.

German View Of Worlds Coal.
From Engineering.

The well-known journal StahI und Eisen
has recently published some figures bearing
upon the worlds coal deposits and seems
to take more optimistic view than is Of
ten the case. The outlook. more especially
as far as Germany is concerned, is con-
sidered quite reassuring, inasmuch as hsr
deposits of coal are put down at 2S0O0O.-
600 900 tons. which, with the present con-
sumption. will suffice for couple of thou
sand years. and, making allowance for an
increasing demand In any case should last
till the year 1900. Added to this there is
some reason to believe that the coal depos-
its of Germany have been underestimate,
and That they may be put at as much as
AS miiliards of tons.
The other European powers are much less
favorably situated. Thus the coal deposits
OF Great Britain and Ireland amount to
only about half OF those OF Germany or
about 1893 GOO .O00. 600 tons, and az the arn,,
al consumption Is twice as big as that of
Germany. England may have exhausted
her supplies In some 350 years AS regards
the other countries, the coal deposits OF
Belgium estimated to contain twenty
three miiliards OF tons of coal those or
France nineteen mlliards, those of Austria
seventeen miiliards and those of Russia
about forty milliard tons. The whole makes
an aggregate for Europe of about TOO MIL
lizards OF tons OF coal.
The coal deposits of North America are
estimated 10 contain nearly as much as
those of Europe. or 6S1 900 900 900 tons, but
even this gigantic figure Is completely
dwarfed by Asia's wealth of coal. as to
which 1t Is at present impossible TO make
even an approximate estimate. China, more
especially, seems to possess inexhaustfble
supplies. and a German scientist has put
the coal deposits of the province of Shansi
alone at 200 0G0. 000, 0G0 tons. Siberia and
the Island of Sakhaln also contain vast
coal deposits. and altogether the paper does
not see any cause for alarm as to a uni
versaI coal famine.
