MUST HAVE ROOSEVELT.
Mr.. Lawson Is For Him First, Last
And All the Time.

Boston. Dec. 23.--Thomas w. Lawson in
n statement tonight confirmed a New
York interview Sunday in which he an
nounced that he has decided to launch a
movement which has for its object the re-
election of Pres Roosevelt and the eel
walton Of Gov. John A. johnson of Min
nesota, Democrat, to the Vice Presiden-
cy.
Mr. Lawson claims that Pres. Roose-
velt's reelection is necessary to save the
country from disaster and that any other
Republican or even William J. Bryan
would be so satisfactory to New York fl
nancial interests that they will willingly
finance either or both parties through the
campaign to any extent necessary"
Mr. Lawson adds that Mr.. Bryan Is
clean. honest and unpurchasable." but
that the money power believes it can
"discredt him at the very beginning by
showing the world his helplessness in
handling and controlling Il situation
which has almost stumped President
Roosevelt to handle and control"

5,o35 BAGS or MAIL.
M iestic Breaks All Record in Quantity
Of Holiday Mail.

New York, Dec 23.-Bearing the big
gest cargo of Christmas mail that has
ever be IN brought into this country by
anyone ship on one voyage. the White
Star liner Majestic has just arrived in
port. Piled up on her main deck. both
fore and aft, were mail bags aggregat-
ing in number 50s5. In this mountain
of mail were registered letters and
nackagcs of an estimated value OF
100000.
The tremendous Christmas cargo OF
the Majestic eclipses the record which
she achieved last year. when she
brought to this port $500 bags Of mall
Although the mail Is stored away in
the ships hold during the voyage, 1t
has to be brought up on deck before
docking. as mail boats always meet
the incoming liners and relieve them
of their consignment of letters and
packages before they reach quaran-
tine.
The crew Of the Majestic had to work
all night to get the bags up to the
main deck by morning. After being
transferred to a mail boat between
Sandy Hook and Quarantine the record
DTcdklIS CdTBO VI Illctll was iuhuCt thI
the foot of Cortlandt street and thence
taken by trucks to the postoffice build
ing, where an extra force of men were
set to work sorting it.
Besides acting as Santa Claus
ship, the Majestic brought into port
the $50 passengers Of the Red Star liner
Kroonland, which broke it's shaft in the
English channel during it's latest west
ward voyage.
The Kroonland had to go back to
Liverpool, and from there its passen-
gers were sent to Southampton, where
they were transferred to the Majestic.
AS there We're only 804 passengers
aboard the White Star liner. including
those transferred, it will be seen that
the Red Star line had more passengers
on the Majestic than the line which
runs the boat.
OF the $50 kroonland passengers. so
were first cabin. $50 second cabin and
$50 Storage. Among the passengers
on the Majestic was George G.. Lemons.
known as the king of the Klondike."
Mr.. Lemons had his BRIDE whom he
married in Seattle last summer. along
with him and "smal change" amount
Ing to 100000 in one thousand dollar
bills. Mr.. Lemons carried his half
million wrapped up in brown butcher"
paper. The we'd. which resernbled q
small sized ham. was tucked careless
ly under his arm.
Mr.. Lemons modestly admitted that
he had a few millions scattered around
In the various banks of the Continent,
as Well as this country. and that he
merely brought his 100000 with him in
case he saw something he or his wife
might take fancy to.

RECORD COAL YEAR.
More Than 100000 Tons Mined Daily
in United States.

Baltimore, Md. Dec 23.--In this
weeks issue Of the Manufacturers
Record. MIR. Frederick f. Saward. the
New York authority on the coal indus
try noting that the United States is
now mining more than 1,OOO.OOO tons of
coal a day, writes:
This year of 1907 is a record one for
coal production of all kinds, and par
ticularly is this shown in the output of
bituminuus coal which will aggregate
a volume that would have been I'M
thought Of. even FIVE years ago. Here
we are with over 100000 tons a day
put out of the mines, and until a few
weeks ago there was not enough to go
around A few facts in regard to the
growth of the soft-coal trade of this
country are Of more than passing in
tereSt at this time.
only thirty-odd years ago Illinois
and Pennsylvania took a year to pro-
,luce a tonnage that now could be (and
is) turned out in one month, while
West Virginia in 1907 produces in less
than 4 week as much coal as was pro-
duced In that State in the year 1869.
Particularly noticeable is the
growth Of the soft coal tonnage in the
last half-dozen years. 1t might reason
ably be supposed that with output on
such a large scale the rate Of increase
would become smaller. but it goes for
ward with mighty strides and a pro-
longatiOn of the line of output indicates
a tonnage of 500.000,006 tons. 1900, 900
tons day for every day in the year.
practically, at a time no further dis
lance than 1912 At present the btu
minous tonnag" is more than five times
as great as the anthracite output.
Pennsylvania continues to supply its
full prorortion Of the entir2 output, and
Including anthracite output turns out
nearly az mucn coal as all the other
States together.
THE EituminOus coal trade has quin-
tupled since 1856. The increase alone of
the year 1903 as compared with 1900 is
as much as the whole aggregate output
Of the United States in all years prior
to 1857. and Stree 1903 the tonnage has
grown $4,000. 900 tons
"Since 1896 the increase in tonnage has
been constant (save for a standstill in
1904. and has amounted in all to
23o. oOo. O0G tons, and has nearly trebled
the tonnage in ten years. The bitumin-
times as large in volume as the anthra-
cite business. 1t is three times as
great as in 1856.
THE output this year will be rs great
as the total production for all years
prior to 1874 and adding tie output of
1906 ard 100. we have a tonnage equal
to all the business prior to 1882.
Scarcely less noticeable than the
volume of the bituminous business is
the concentration Of control, SO that
now score or more companies control
a tonnage equal to fully one-third Of
all the soft coal used in the United
States, and as to the utilization of btu
minous coal, there appears no reason
despite the large increase in tonnage.
to change the assertion Of a few years
back that nearly one-half Of the whole
output. aside from that exported or
used for making. is used by the
