or the injured % subsequently died
within the year.
To show the terribly demoralizing effect
oflong suspensions. it will be observed that
no less than 81 deaths and 135 other casu-
slites (nearly ne-half) occurred in August,
september, and October, the three months
after the resumption OF work, and those
who unnecessarily caused this suspension
are responsible. to great extent, for this
immense slaughter Of and the manning Of
human beings. The largest number Of
deaths are caused by falls Of coal and rocks,
while the number Of deaths by explosion
Of gas were only six, but the number injur-
I'd by these explosions are greater than
from any other cause. The falling of two
cages by the breaking Of chains, etc., Killed
no less than IL persons, while 10 others
perished at different times from the same
causes.
Tie number Of persona killed Ia the
Southern Lehigh district, embracing part
Of LnZcrne and Carbon counties, wao but
7, the number injured being 26-e total Of
SO. These figures include the period from
July - TO December 81. AS the quantity
of coal mined, sent to market, and consum-
ed in that district after July 19 was in the
neighbolhoOd of 100000 tons, it would
give one death to 2S5, 900 tons mined, and
about 10000 for each one injured. What
q contrast with Schuylkill county, where
one person ives killed in 1870 20 $4,000
tons, and one injured for every 6,000 tons
mined
The number killed during the same
period in the middle district of Luzerne
county was 20, and tho number injured 4S
"A total Of GS
Five ofthose given az injured have since
died, thereby increasing the number ot
killed to %, and decreasing the number of
injured to 43. AS we nave no returns Of
the product of the separate colleries en-
braCed in this district, we can make no
comparison with the others, but az the pro-
duct would reach nearly 1000, 900 tons, il
would give one death for each 100, 900 tons
mined and $4,000 tons for each casualty.
