There are 5,000,000 tons ofcoal annually exported from Baltimore. Baltimore consumes 1,000,000 tons a year. The United States Collier Neptune recently took on at oneof the coal piers 1 5,000 tons in one day. The short haul on coke from the ovens to Baltimore andnearness of limestone deposits make this City an ideal place forthe smelting of ore from Cuba and Spain. Steel can be manu-factured into railroad supplies under advantageous conditionsand sent by water at low cost to home and foreign ports.
