the InUlaaafS tnat MCKINNEY Sought
out Tart in the Grst place when he had
grave problems to solve and that Taft
led in their solution. The consensus
of Republican opinion in Indiana seems
to be that, while it would have liked

INVESTIGATING Mine Disasters.

The United States Government, with
in the next few weeks, will begin a
series OF scientific Investigations into
the causes of disasters in American
coal mines in the hope that the pres
ent frightful mortality may be reduced
to minimum. BY August l, in accord
ance with plans approved by Secre-
tary Of the Interior Garfield the Inte-
rior Department will have a complete
experimental station in operation on
the grounds of the arsenal in Pittsburg,
way amendment to the legislative APP
preparation bill, making an apprOpria-
ton of $4,000 for this work, became
a law and the money available Gov
eminent officials were busy making
tentative plans for the station in order
that there might be no delay. This ad-
vanced the project to such an extent
that the material for the station will
be on the ground by July list, aud it is
expected the station will be in opera
ton a month later.
This prompt action was considered
terrible mortality record of last year
is being continued into this year, al
though 1907 was considered an unusual
one 5000 being killed in the coal mines
as against 2,061 the year before. From
unofficial estimates it appears that six
teen men have been killed or injured
each work day of the year. just the
other week, twenty three miners were
killed and thirty injured in and about
Wilkes Barre, Pa.
At the Pittsburg experimental. sta
ticn, tests of the various dynamites
be made with view to accurately de-
terminng their safety in the presence
of the deadly firedamp and equally
deadly coal dust. Explosives of all
sorts will be hurled by means of I; NOR
tar into mammoth boiler-platc cylin-
der which has previously been filled
with gas. and the effects will be care
fully noted. If ignition fails after Sc
we're tests, the use of these explosives
will be urged upon the mine owners of
the country.
The results of the Investigations will
be published for the benefit of the mine
bureaus of the various coal producing
states, the mine owners and the miners
themselves. Simple instructions will
be issued from time to time to the
miners iP half dozen different Ian
gllagcS. There is no intention of in
terferng in any way with the inspec-
ton work of the state bureaus. The
work is wholly invcstigativc in char
actcr, and educational in purpose. 1t
is the purpose of the United states Of
fcials to cooperate with these bureaus
to tine extent of supplying information
concerning the mysteries of the catas-
trophies in the mines 1t, is expected
that the results will be accepted by the
state bureaus as a guidance to future
state laws governing the safety of
miners.
