tons Of coal mined last year. A pen
atty OF ninety-one lives was paid for
the 1O,157.3S3 tons of coal produced

for sixty-four men met death in the
industry of coal mining in this state
up to September l. 1912.
Both years show great reduction
in the lives lost from 1910. however.
for in that year terrible disasters in
the Trinidad and Louisville fields
brought the total of miners deaths
up to 1923. or one for each $4,000 tons
Of coal produced. This was the high
est average Of deaths in comparison
with tonnage in tho nation in that
year-1910.
1t was partly on account Of this
disastrous showing that the federal
bureau OF mines was impelled to send
two of its mine safety cars to Colo
RADIO. Every effort has been made by
the government to improve conditions
and discipline in Colorado's coal
mines.
