ACCIDENTS TO WORKERS.
Some Appalling Statistics Of Loss Of
Life.

DIR. Josiah Strong. president Of the
American Institute Of Social Service.
In speaking Of the number Of persons
killed each year In our Industrial occu.
nations, made some astonishing com.
PARSONS. He said:
1--WE In the United States Kill In four
years some 10000 persons more than
fell in battle and died OF wounds dur.
ing the four years OF the Civil War.
We are killing more than twice rs
many every year as pcrishcd by vio'
lence In both the French and Englioh
armies during the three years OF the
Crimean War.
"There are more killed and wounded
on our railroads every year than the
entire losses Of the Boer War on both
sides In three years. We have indus
trial casualties enough every year to
keep one conflict like our war with
Spain going for 100 years. Our peace
full yocations cost more lives every two
days than were lost In battle during the
entire Spanish War.
From the best statistics obtainable.
I may say there are to-day $4,000 per
sons in the United States under sen
tence Of death to be executed at an un'
known moment during the next ten
years-1,1OO next week and the same
number every week until the CHASTITY
work is complete. An intelligent ana
earnest effort would procure the re-
prieve of multitude of these innocent
victims" .r

The Union Pacific Railway Company
has recently submitted To the civil en-
sineeSins department Of III. uniysr-
siiy Of Colorado a series OF tests To bo
made upon Stag from the immense
dumps Of the smeltsrs- These tests
wiii be made with the view of detsrm-
lining this value of the Stag as a substi-
tuis in the place os broken rock for
concrete work in eulycris. retaining
walls. piatfOrms. and the like.
As the expense in breaking rock for
use In concrete is large. and this
the use Of the sias. the savin.; would
be great Millions Of tons Of this
waste lie unused. and II its utility
should be determined for some pur-
pose. the economic importance would
be considerable.
The object Of the experiments
therefore Is not only TO accomplish u
