The Prod uction of Minerals.

According to the Engineering and
Mining Journal, the total value of the
mineral and metal production of the
United States for 1893 and 1894 was
as follows: For 1893, S615, 846,8G6; for
1894 S553,272.992, a decline of s62.-
3I3.9O4, or nine per cent. This great
falling off was due, however. far more
to lower prices than to lessened GUAM
tity of the product. Thus the value
OF coal production declined last year
Sl3,783,828, or seven per cent, while
IN" quantity it fell off only 6,22O, 97O
short tons, or three and half per
cent. This small decline in the vol
ume OF coal produced is substantially
the measure OF the whole mineral out
put OF the country. The copper out
put increased eight per cent, from
327,225,7 1888 pounds in 1893 to 353, 1904
3l4 pounds in 1894, though in value it
declined no less than 81 .630,5OS, or
four and half per cent. The pro.
duction OF gold increased from S35..
$4,000 in 1898 to $50, 761, 2O5 in 1894,
but the commercial value of the sill
yer produced declined from S47,31l,-
$50 in 1893 to S3l ,4O3,53I in 1894, a
fall of s15,9O7,029 or thirty-four per
cent. This was partly due to reduced
production, but the price also de.
clined from 1872 cents an ounce in
1913 to 63 cents in 1894. On the whole
the mineral industry Of the United
States has made a highly satisfactory
record in 1894. With the reviving of
prosperity and prices, producers will
reap harvest for which they planted
