Exercise by the Vermont secretary
of state of his right to revoke Ii
censes to operate motor vehicles on

H nine months Of 1914, decidedly hope

year and the opinion generally ex-
pressed to Edward w. Parker. statis-
Etician Of the United States Geological
Survey, was that the receding tide
had reached its, full ebb, and omit
mism was apparent regarding the
coming year. According to Mr.. Par
ker's estimate, which is based uponl
numerous estimates received from
leading coal-rnine operators and 9th
ers familiar with the industry, the to-
iltal coal production of tho United
States in 1914, WAS about $40; 000, 900
short tons, a decrease Of about co..
1000 1000 tons, compared with the re-
cord output of 1918. Practically all
OF this decrease was in the output
of the bituminous mines. The pro-
lduction Of Pennsyl yania anthracite In
1914 was not materially different from
that of the preceding year, which
was S1,71S, $50 dong tons. : In 1914,
however, about 1 100000 tons (princi-
Ipally nut and steam Sizes, went into
storage, so that the quantity sent to-
the market was about 100000 tons
