however, a very considerable percent age of the coal sent out of Great Brit ain as exports" passes to ports and stations in various parts of tine world from which it is finally supplied to ocean vessels for fuel purposes. A paper presented before the Royal Statistical Society of England by D. A. Thomas, M. P, stated that:
 The great bulk of our export of coal is for the use of steamships, and it is within the mark to say that over half of our exports are for navigation purposes. Cardiff alone ships over a million tons annually to Port Said, over a half million to Malta and Gibraltar. about the same quantity to Cape Verde and the Canaries. over 3OO,OOO to Colombo. and large quan- titles to Alden, practically the whole of which goes to bunker steam vessels calling to coal at those Gepots.'
 As the British exports of coal, aside from that recorded as supplied to yes sels for fueling purposes amounted in
Arizona republican., 1912-01-28

1910 to over 62 million long tons. the
 above quoted estimate would seem to justify adding to the 90 million tons recorded as bunker coal by the United Kingdom and the United States an- other 30 million as the share of Brit ish exports which finally becomes bunker coal through purchase for bunkering purposes at ports or sta tiOns to which it was originally ex- ported. While the Bureau of Statis- tics is unable to state the share of American coal exports which become vessel supplies (aside from that ac- tually reported as bunker coal and not included in the export statemenD it is quite probable that a considerable per centage of the coal from the United States which passes to the West In dian islands and the coast of Mexico is used for vesel fueling. Add to this the more than two million tons sup piled by the Japanese mines to yes sels engaged in the foreign trade. the more than one million tons supplied
Arizona republican., 1912-01-28

from Australia. the nearly one million tons supplied from India, plus the es- timated consumption of about three million tons by the navies of the world. and the Bureau of Statistics es- timate of an average of 75 million tons consumed on the oceans of the wOrid seems a conservative one. As the valuation of the coal exported for steaming purposes averages about S3.5O per ton. the further estimate of the value of the coal used on the oceans of the w0rld-over 250 million dollars per annum-seems also a con servative one.
 The United Stats is by far the larg- est coal producer of the world, it's pro- duction in 1910 being 441h million metric tons, against 26i1a million by the United Kingdom. 222 million by Germany, 39 million each by France and Austria Hungary, 241s million by Russia. 23 million by Belgium, 15 mil lion by Japan. 141A million by China. 13 million by Canada, and 12 million

In his an- nual report to the president. the sec retary of war says that peace and order have been promoted in Min danao (where the cables only the other day reported further military activity to the same end); that, in addition to the $E,000. 900 expended by the Philippine government under con gressiOnal auth horiZation in public works. more than twice that amount has been spent on various imprOve- ments out of the surplus from cur rent revenues; that the present sys- tenn of practical free trade between continental United States and the islands has resulted in a marked in- crease of business. and that the net revenues for the last year are larger than ever before.

comparatively few countries state Tn separate terms the quantity of coal supplied to vessels for their own use, or for "bunkering'' purposes. The
 United States statistics show about 9 million long tons supplied to vessels at ocean port to be placed tn their bunker for their own use, and the British reports show about 20 million long tons supplied to vessels in the foreign trade and 2s million tons to vessels in the coastwise trade. This would make for the two great coal producing countr es of the world-the United States and the United King
