court of arbitration and naval dis
armament at the end of the European
war. The bill, as reported, meets with
the approval of Majority Leader
Kitchin and other influential Demo-

ry 10 14-inch guns.
Twenty submarines-three of the
feet type and II for coast defense

tai of last years measure.

The appeal Of the Dutch council re-

THE committee anti-Oorlag Rad
(anti-war counciD considers the fact
that the German government says in
its recent note to America that it
twice publicly declared 1t was willing

The Swedish second chamber has
officially expressed "A wish for coop

and Switzerland are strong for equal
action. Recent speeches of Beth

possibility of Cancellation.
"T'he Dutch committee hopes you
will deem possible cooperation of
American peace organizations and
eventually the Mohonk conference in
urging President Wilson to promote a
conference of neutrals to offer media
ton for durable peace and an inter

principle of equal rights for all CIV
ilized states, as Asquith has described
the purpose of the allies"

COAL MINING BULLETIN
is ISSUED BY SURVEY

ESPECIAL eoesssPonpEacH TO soRnas JOURNAL
Santa Fe, May 11.--A bulletin ON
coal mining in New Mexico was issued
this week by the United States geo.
logical survey. 1t says in the intro
ductlon:
THE return of normal mining con-
ditions in Colorado after the settle
ment of the coal miners strike at the
end of 1914 had a marked effect on
the coal production of New Mexico
In 1915 which, according TO c. r..
Bcsher Of the United states geological
survey. amounted to 3,s17,940 short
tons, valued OF s5,4Sf,36 a decrease
compared with 1914 Of 59,749 tons,
or nearly per cent. in quantity. and
s749.510 or IL per cent in value.
Although such factors as mild
weather and small demand from Mex
leo for coke in part account for this
decrease, the fact that all counties
except Colfax had increases and that
the output Of Colfax county decreas-
ed nearly $50, 900 tons indicates rath-
er clearly that Colorado fields adioin-
ing that country on the north regain
vi Ild1 httS nHitu III Wv ST. INC g~hi
1914, were supplied by the Ration
fields in Colfax county. and that the
strike contributed largely to the in
crease in production recorded for New
Mexico in year when all other states
in the Rocky mountain region showed
decreases.
"The number Of men employed IN
New Mexico coal mines increased
from AIS in 1914 TO f,205 in 1915.
but the average number Of days
worked decreased from 2S3 TO 262,
and the average Rpnual output per
employee from e2s to s0s tons. The
average daily output increased slight
ly. from 1913 TO 3.47 tons. The pro-
portion OF the output shot from the
solid decreased from 10 per cent in
1914 to per cent in 1915, and that
undercut by hand increased from SIS
to so per cent. The proportion of coal
mined by machines was l6 per cent
In both years.
