MARYLAND'S COAL OUTPUT
SHOWS REDUCTION IN 1918
Value, However, Is a Gain Over
1912 and Exceeds That Of Any
Other Year Since 1907.

The coal mined in Maryland in 1913
amounted to ATS. $50 short tons, valued
at s5.927,O ,O46. according to figures COM
piled by E. w. Parker Of the United
States geological survey, in cooperation
with the state geological survey. This
was less than the amount mined in 1912
by 1s4,199 short tons. but the value
showed a gain of ss7.967 and exceeded
that of any other year since 1907.
The annual production Of coal in Mary
land has been fairly constant for the
last sixteen years, the smallest output in
that period being in 1909, when it
amounted to 4,O23,2 ,241 tons, and the larg-
est in 1907. when it reached 5.532,62s
tons. The output in 1913 was very close
to the average of the sixteen years. 1t
is not to be expected that the production
will show any material increase in the
future, as the Maryland big vein,'' from
which the larger part Of the output has
been obtained, is approaching exhaus-
ton. and although there is still a good
supply remaining in the thinner and
deeper beds, it is not probable that the
future annual tonnage from them will
exceed the records of the past If indeed
it maintains the same importance.

One Instance of Labor Trouble.

There was only one instance Of labor
trouble in 1913, and that was Insignificant,
200 men being idle for two days. In 1912
there were but three strikes reported, the
longest of which lasted twelve days.
The bureau of mines has reported thir-
teen fatal accidents in 1913 in the coal
mines of Maryland. the same number as
in 1872; but as there were fewer men
employed and a smaller quantity mined
in 1913, the ratio of deaths was slightly
increased and the tonnage per life lost
slightly less. The records for both years
were better than the average and were
surpassed by only a few other states.

|PESS|M|SM SHOWN
BY HERE
Do Not See How Russia Can
Avoid Backing Up
Servia.
BELIEVE FRANCE INTENT
ON A GENERAL CONFLICT
She Has Loaned Car Gold for Use in
Defraying Military
Expenses.

The declaration of war by Austria
against Servia did not come as sur
prise in Washington, where European
events are being closely watched.
Furthermore, Notwithstanding dis
patches received at the State Depart
ment yesterday from the German and
Russian capitals, indicating that condi-
tions in Europe have been deemed
favorable to an adjustment Of general
European difficulties. tone of pessi-
mism prevails today among diplomats
in Washington as to the prospect OF
general European war.
This pessimism has been brought
about chiefly by items In today's dis
patches from Vienna which declare
that even II Servia should now yield
to all the demands which have been
made by austria the latter country
would be compelled to exact new
guarantees"
These statements are taken in Wash
fngton to clearly indicate that Austria
has chosen what she considers a
psychological occasion and has been
determined all along to force a war.

Nikola Pashitch, Servian Premier.

| Nikola Pashitch. premier and minister
OF foreign affairs Of Servia, has twice
before been the dominant figure in
Servian politics in the course of his
forty years in the public affairs Of his
country. His policy always has been
bitterly hostile to Austrfa-Hungary,
and the present crisis in the relations
! Of the two countries, which threatens
to plunge Europe into the much-dread-
ed general war, is largely the outcome
| Of his provocative attitude.
Pashitch throughout his career has
conducted q vigorous fight for the
economic freedom Of Servia from Aus
tria. By means Of railway tariffs and
inspection regulations on the frontier
Of Austria. Servia's natural road to
the markets of western Europe, the
Austrian government has been able to
control Servian trade in pigs and poul-
try. the staple products of the Servian
kingdom.
Clamor Against Austria.
But the chief grievance of the Ser
vfans has been the continued domina-
ton of Austria-Hungary over a large
population across the frontier which
the Servians maintain is Of Serb blood
Although q considerable part of this
population has contested the claims of
the Servian jingoes and has repeatedly
demonstrated its preference for Aus
trfan rule. the campaign for liberatfng
the Servian brothers from the Austrian
yoke has been kept up with frequent
outbursts Of anti-Austrian clamor in
Belgrade. To this c1amor Russia, al
ways jealous of Austria, has lent her
secret and sometimes her open support.
Inc annexation Of Bosnia-Herze-
sovlna by Austria in 1909 produced a
wild demand in Servia for immediate
war to hberate the Bosnian brothers
from Austrian rule. At that time. how

German and Russian Enmity.

$50 far as Germany and Russia are
concerned, there is between those two
countries the question Of which is the
greatest nation on the continent of
Europe They want to fight that out, and
would not dodge the issue.
Russia is now i'll supreme control in
the Balkan states. If she does not aid
Servia-and Russia's attitude toward Ser
via in the next few days is the crux Of
the whole situation-then Russian inf1u-
ence will forever be at an end all through
the Balkans. If Russia allows Austria
to crush Servia, Russia may never hope
to lead affairs again in the Balkans, for
the other Balkan states will turn against
Russia for deserting Servia.
Austria has recently felt that she must
put down the Slavonic races, that she
must destroy Servia. and strike first, or
else they would destroy her.
There seems to be no hope of a soltl-
ton of the many difficulties involved un-
less Austria backs down. That contin-
gency is remote. If, then, Austria forces
the war. it would seem that Russia has
got to fight, and if Russia fights, that
brings in almost all Of the other nations.

Views Of One Diplomat.

AS one diplomat in Washington today
phrased it, the situation as to the pros
pect of general European war is as fol-
lows:
France and Austria are trying their
best to bring about general war;
France expects to get out of general
conflict the Alsace-Lorraine provinces
she lost at the close of her war with
Germany. Austria is fighting for her
life against the Slavonic races, led by
Servia, in view of the fact that the
population of Austria includes more
Servians than it does people of any
other race. not even excepting Aus
trians.
Germany and Russia are ready for
war; They are not actually engaged in
prosecuting the propaganda of war.
but they are not lodging the issue.
England and Italy do not want war.
They have nothing to get out of a war,
and they are trying to prevent one.
France has carefully laid her plans
for the present situation. She has not
only got gold in enormous sums; for her
self and Russia, but France has actually
within the past year increased the period
of military service from two years to
three years.

France Playing Leading Part.

Statements printed in The Sunday Star
indicating that France is playing one of
the leading parts in the most momentous
intrigue with which European capitals
have been busted in this generation, were
added to in Washington today, when
attention was called to the fact that
France had not only within the past
year drawn millions in gold from all over
the world, particularly the United States,
in preparation for some great event, but
that she has recently made heavy loans
to Russia which have not required that
Russia should not spend the gold thus
borrowed on military necessities.
In the past, the terms of such french
loans to Russia have required that the
money thus acquired should not be spent
for war material-that it should be spent
only for internal improvements.
This striking alteration in the loan
agreements between France and Russia Is
taken in Washington to mean that Paris
and st. Petersburg have long been prepar-
ing for the dramatic events now being pre-
sented in the theater of European politics.
