HEAVY LOSS OF LIFE
In the Coal Mines OF the United
States.

Accidents in coal mines of the
United States during the last cal
endar year resulted in the death Of
3,125 men and injury to 5,316 more,
according to statistics just made
public by the geological survey. The
death record among the coal miners
during the year was greater by 1893
than in 1906, and this is said to
have been the worst year in the his
tory of the coal mining industry.
The figures do not represent the
full extent of the disasters, as re-
ports were not received from Ger
tain States having no mine in:pcc-
tors.
West Virginia reported the heav-
lest death rate in 19O7-12.35 per
thousand employees and this State
also showed the lowest production
for each life lost-65.969 tons. New
Mexico stood next on the list with a
death rate of 11.45 and a production
of, 1892 tons for each life lost.
Alabama was third with death rate
of 7.2 per thousand and production
of 92,535 tons for each life lost.
Missouri had the lowest death rate,
heading the roll of honor with .95
and 499,742 tons of coal mined for
each life lost
Statistics do not bear out the pop
ular idea that most mine disasters
result from explosions. OF 4 total
number reported during the last year
947 deaths and 343 injuries result
ed from gas and dust explosions, and
2O1 deaths and 46 injuries were
caused by powder explosions. The
chief cause of death among the min
ers, the report explains, was due to
the falling of mine roofs and coal.
Such disasters caused 1,122 deaths
and 2,141 injuries.
