BULK OF COAL SUPPLY FROM
-FOUR STATES.

From 1914, the date OF the earl
est record Of coal production in this
country. to 1911, inclusive, accord
ing to a chart just issued by the
United States Geological survey
Pennsylvsnia has furnished 2.2'o,-.
798.737 short tons of anthracite coal
and 2.396,491, 26O short tons OF btu
mtnous coal, a total of 4,667,2SS,--
997 short tons. The greatest output
