WE ST VIRGINIA IS
CLIMBING IN COAL
Production to the Serious
RELOCATION of the State
of Maryland.

WASHINGTON Dec. 19.-1ncreased
competition with West Virginia coal
is assigned by the Geological Survey
us the chief cause of the decline in
the price Of Maryland coalin 1905 and
1908 as shown by the Surveys hg-
ures The coal coming from the
fields opened by the virginian Rail
way is held especially responsible
Tor the falling off in the price Of
Maryland coal.
According to statistics just made
public by the Geological Survey,
Maryland production of coal, which
fell from $3.50, S2s short tons in 1907
to 4.s77 ,o9s tons in 1908. showed a
further decrease to 4,O221Sl tons in
1909. The decrease in value each
year has been larger in proportion
than the decrease in production. In
1907 the value Of the coal mined was
Sc ,62S 6s7, decreasing in 1908 to So
l16.753 and in 1909 to $4,47O,565. The
average price per ton has decreased
from 1920 in 1907 to Sill in 1909.
While the decreased value has been
due largely to competition with West
virginia. the decreased production is
said to have been caused by the ap-
preaching exhaustion Of the Mary
land big vein" that portion Of the
Pittsburg bed which has furnished
the larger part of the Maryland OUT
