Mitchell Received Cordially.
John Mitchell, former head of the
United Mine Workers of America, re-
ceiyed cordial reception for the ideas
he advanced yesterday. He estimated
that fully 25 per cent of the coal in
mines already developed has been
wasted in mining. He concluded his
speech with plea for more attention
to mine operatives. one of whom he
said is killed and several injured with
| the mining of every 10000 tons of
coal.
Governor Johnson of Minnesota made
/ lively talk in which he took issue
with Carnegies statement that waste
ful methods prevailed in iron mining
in the Lake Superior region.
| Highest Paid Engineer Talks.
Technical information was supplied
the conference by DR.. C. R. Hise, OF
the University of Wisconsin. John
Hayes Hammond. who has the reputa
tion of being the highest paid mining
engineer in the country, read a paper
on engine methods, in which he drew
the conclusion that, while there was
no way TO revolutioniZe mining meth
DDS, they might be improved gradually
The climax of the afternoon session
was the speech of Secretary of State
Root.
