FataIAties to MiReFs in Eighteen
states and Territories During
the Year 1904.

An ohicial report made to the United
Btates geological survey gives stat4s-
ties Of accidents, fatal and otherwise,
which occurred in the process of min-
ing coal In Is states and territories
during 1901, says the Philadelphia
Ledger.
In these IS states and territories
the total number OF lives lost in 1901
wa 1,46T, and the total number Of
men injured was S,64s. The number
of tons of coal mined for each life
varied from 426,O94 in Maryland TO 49,
424 in Indian territory. The average
number Of tons mined for each Of the
1,467 lives lost in these Is states and
territories was 1sS,66s. Maryland en-
joys the distinction of the largest ton
mage per life lost, while the Indian
territory has the largest percentage
Of deaths for the tonnage mined.
In Pennsylvania the number of tons
Of bituminous coal mined per life lost
was a little more than double the
amount mined per life lost in the an
thracite mines in the same state. In
the anthracite mines of Pennsylvania
51S men were killed and 1,243 injured;
277 wives were made widows and 624
children made fatherless, and 1915
tons were mined for each life lost. In
the bituminous fields of the same
state 3O1 men were killed and $50 in
iured; 1s4 wives were made widows
and 412 children mace fatherless and
973,2S tons were mined for each life
lost.
The anthracite fields of Pennsyl-
vania alone furnished the largest num-
Der Of killings in the union. The next
highest record was that of West Vir-
Rinia, where 1874 men were killed.
The total number Of men employed
IN the coal mines of the United States
In 1901 was ASS, 544, who made an aver
age Of ZIG working days as compared
with 44s,5 s1 men, with an average Of
212 working days In 1900. The distri-
button Of this labor In 1901 was as fol-
lows: In the anthracite mines, 145, 800
men, with an average working time Of
1876 days; in the bituminouS mines s4O,-
2s5 men, with an average working
time of 235 days
