Coal Mining In China. The figures for the coal pro- duction of the United Kingdom suggest a aum in simple propor tion: if from an estimated stook of 157,000,000,000 tons the annool production is roughly | 270,000,000 tons, what should be the annual production in China? It is impossible to obtain any." thing approaching an exact figure for the third term of the proper- tion, but an answer can be reached if instead of China we take a single Province. The deposits in Shanai havo boen comnated by experts to contain at least 630,000,000,000 tons, which, on the basis of the Briish preduation, should yield an annual eupply of at least 1,250,000,000 tons; indeed, with adequate working, the propor tionate output would probably be much greater in the case of these mines than in that of the British, for the Chinese deposits are prac tically virgin, so that it would be a case of "skimming the cream,' in the British coalfields, where the day for which has long passed

some of the workings have pene- trated to a depth of four miles. Besides this total of over a thous and million tone which might be obtained if the deprsite of only one Province were worked to the same degree as those of th United Amount

Kingdom, the actual

Modern Cargo Steamers. Mr. Gracie showed that in coal consumption there is a gain of: 24 per cent, in a single screw geared turbine tramp ship over the old single screw triple-ex-. pansion-engined ship, while the. weight of machinery is 1534 per cent. In the case of the new VOS- sale-Cairnoross and Cairngowan

There is economy, too, in respect of the lubrication and of wages, an the staff is reduced, Heroin lies a pos sible source of improved balance sheets of trump steamers.
