COAL ENOUGH FOR CENTURIES
Deposits ii This Country May
Last 1000 to 5000 Years.
The Geological Survey Says That
While Consumption is Increasing
Supply is Ample For Generations.

Washington, D. c. ffcers OF the
Geological Survey declare that the
present generation, the generation to
follow and still other generations
need not worry about the coal supply
in the United States.
There is an abundance Of coal in
the country, said one of the survey
scientists. In fact, there is coal to
burn for many centuries to come.
While 1t is impossible to make any
accurate prophecy, / think it is safe
to say that the supply in the United
States will last for 1000 or 5000
years.
Then the scientist paused for a
minute, stroked his chin reflectively
and repeated
Yes, think it is perfectly safe to
say that the coal deposits in this
country will not be exhausted for
probably 1000 or 5000 years.
Some interesting statistics of the
production and consumption of coal
in the United States have been pre-
pared by the survey. Up to the
close of the year 1866 the total pro-
duction had amounted to 2S4,S90,055
tons. In the following decade it in.
creased to 419,425,104 tons, making
the total production up to that time
more than 700,000,000 tons. The
grand total of coal produced in this
country up to 1906 was 5,970,773,-
571 short tons.
This great increase in production
of coal, when considered with the in
crease in the population" says a sur
vey report, furnishes some interest
ing comparisons Going back for a
period of little over fifty years, Of.
to the middle of the last century, and
comparing the statistics of coal pro-
duction with the increased popula-
ton it is found that in 1850, accord
ing to the census for that year, the
production of coal amounted to
6.445,681 tons, when the population
of the country amounted to 23,191,-
SIG persons. The per capita produc-
ton of coal in that year is thus seen
to have been OFFS tons. In 1860,
or ten years later, the population
was 1,443,321 persons, and the coal
production amounted to 14,333,922
tons, or an average of 0.514 tons per
capita
The per capita consumption has
jumped by leaps and bounds ahead
of the increase in population. The
report continues:
While the population from 1850
to 1900 has shown an increase of 230
per cent, the production Of coal in
creased 1854 per cent.
The survey officials assert that
while the production of coal has in
creased, and is increasing phenomen-
ally, the supply will last for thou
sands of years, and that no one now
on earth need worry about it.

sKYsoRAPER DEATH LIST.
156 Ont Of 1858 Men Killed or Dis
abIed in Single Year.

Chicago Chicago skyscrapers
during the last year exacted the
heaviest toll Of human life recorded
in the history of building operations
in the city. Figures compiled in the
annual death roll Of the Bridge and
Structural Iron Workers Union show
the increase in fatalities among mem
bers OF that craft to be surprisingly
large.
OF total membership in the union
OF 1858 men. nearly 156 either lost
their lives or were totally or partially
disabled as a result of their hazard
GUS occupations.
During 1905 only twenty-five iron
workers were killed, about the same
number were SO injured that they
could not resume their trade, while
the number of minor injuries totalled
less than eighty.
Secretary O'Brien attributed the
added mortality to the unusually act
i've season in the building industry.
Speed required of the men, he said,
had caused them to become less care
full. Most of the deaths were due
to falls from steel structures in the
downtown districts.

aerial propellors. They flew at
rate Of about thirty-seven miles an
hour, and their machine would not
stay up at a slower rate.
