UNCLE SUM II1S - SOME GOAL PILE

Known and Appraised Now Amounts to 1,500 Billions of Tons.

Il.v Vldor I'Jliott. A5nn.GT N July 1 K. Urule Finn's ro.il pllf known and appraised p.rf:rcp:atcs about l.oOO billions of tons. This is the cMhnatc of the coal ro6rre announce d by Or-orgo )tin Smith, director of the gcoloKicul .survey. Tho studifs ,of tho survoy, tho results of which h;iv- ju.n been made known. lt t,ran iu'ht y:ars nv under trio direction of Ir s't Uoocc.t. Director .Smith further 'd- lurs that this coal reerv; is all easily accessible; of th; h tUr quality. There is twko the tonnao of available coal in this country than thore is In Kurope, tys Mr. Smith, who al.o Fays ihoro are grater reserves in this country than ro known in any continent outside- North America. The enormity t the i'!o is more easily vcalized when the fact is remembered that the l'nited .States has use for four-tenths of one per cent 'of Its available Coal. ince the beirinint; of mining down to the present date, statistics shovthat an inconsiderable sum of lO.Outt,1 U0 0,0 CO tons have been taken from the ground. Director Smith calls attention to the increased recovery from the mines diir to more improved mining methods. In ISPS, a report on the waste in the anthracite coal mines of the country showed Jut the percentage of recovery from the mines was only about 40 per cent. Today th percentage, 'due to more enlightened methods, is from GO to 0.", per cent. In tho bituminous fields the perrentage of recovery runs considerably higher the average is about i0 per cent, while in some regions as high 'cs 3S has been attained. In addition to this it must be borno in mind that the coal tonnage is in'croasins? every day. In nature's laboratory under the ground the chemical action is constantly going on and now coal fields are always in the 'process of formation. Aside from this actual growth of roal, new coal lields are from year to year being opened up as rapidly as transportation facilities for getting the mined product to a market are available. "As to the anthracite," said Director Smith, "there is a divergence of opinion. Some believe production is 'about at its maximum, and that the annual output must beidn to fall off before long. Other authorities think the reserves there are such that the production can be continued with particular diminution for a grn.it many years. As to skimming off the cream it is to be remembered that even yet, though Pennsylvania has been more closely worked than any other region, yet every new lin.? of railroad built there opens a new coal held. "Especially in the Kocky Mountain states it is true that the reserves have hardly been scratched yet; certainly for ob years to come new Melds will he constantly opening for mining and market, absolutely virgin, as the railroads are extended and demand increases."

A P.rnzi'.ian exhibit of comprehensive character and peculiar interest has Just been added to the foreign representation in the commerce and industries building at the San Diego exposition by Dr. Kugenlo Dahne formerly commissioner general representing the minister of agriculture, industry and commerce of Brazil in the l'nited States and Canada. While the Drazilion congress failed to make appropriation for national exhibits at the Panama, expositions contributions by each of the several states made possible a representation as that installed '.'

At the northern end Dr. Iahne has reproduced ;. native rub'bt r gatherer's hut set in the midst of a bit of Amazon jungle and will .me it "poosevelt cabin" in tribute .to the former president's expedition In Prazll.

COTTON MAY BE PUT ON CONTRABAND LIST

Measures Taken to Prevent Kneinies From Ciettlnjj It Are plained.

LONDON, July 16. Ird rharnwood asked a scries of questions in the houe of lords Thursday as to the measures taken to prevent fresh supplies of cotton reaching England's opponents either directly or indirectly through neutral countries and the results which might be expected from declaring cotton a contraband of war. Lord Crewe replied at length but had no change of policy to announce. In the present circumstances he said the government had no intention of placing cotton on the contraband list though they had left the door open to take that step at some future time should it be necessitated by paramount military consideration. He believes that fresh supplies of cotton so far as the British navy could prevent them were now prevented from reaching Germany. It is obviously to the interest of some traders in neutral cr untries to forward goods to Germany but efforts are continually being made by friendly and sometimes delicate negotiations with the traders of the four neutral countries concerned to obtain guarantees they will not send goods into belligerent countries. Great Britain's main purpose was to limit the export to these neutral countries to the precise amount for their actual needs calculated on th'o average imports during the last fewyears. Lord Ellenborough suggested the possibility of Pngland buying" up tho American cotton crop this year.

ENGLISH LOSSES SEEM HEEDLESS

"Little Army" of British Compared to Others Has Made Needless Sacrifices.

LONDON', July 16. Lord Landsdownc's admission, so far uncontradicted, that the total British forces in the "European theater of war" are only about 4 CO, 000 men has created such a disagreeable impression hero that serious attempts are being made to modify it. One of these methods is to showthat England's small army, while it has had only 38 miles out of a total of 4.1G to guard, has really occupied what might be called the "bloody angle" of the battle line, and that its losses have been appalling. It is shown by statistics repeated from a statement made by Premier Asuuith that up to June 15 the total killed of the British .army numbered ::.:il'7 officers and 47,016 men, a total of 50,342 and 207,727 wounded. The claim is made that these are record losses in all warfare and to prove this the following figures are adduced: British losses in the Crimea, 2,753 killed, 12,09 4 wounded; British losses in northern Prance, 50,342 killed, 207,727 wounded: German losses In 'ho Pranco-Prussian war, 11.570 killed, OG.IS'J wounded; Russian losses in Rujsian-Turkish war. 32,780 killed, 71,263 wourded; British losr.es in the Boer wvr, 22,045 killed, 75,6n0 wounded. Includes men invalided at home, as well as wounded in action. It is contended that when the size of the various forces in the above campaigns is compared with the "little arm" of the British, in Plandcrs and the north of Prance, will show that the English have sacrificed themselves or have been sacrificed with a carelessness that is unprecedented.
