MINE FATALITIES
SHOW A DECREASE
One Life Is Sacrificed For
Every $4,000 Tons of
Coal Mined.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 15.-One min
er's life is snuffed out with every 1885,
600 tons of coal mined in the United
States In 1907. when the federal bu-
reau of mines was beginning its work.
the ratio was greater. One life was
given with every IA, 900 tons. Dr.
Joseph A Holmes, director of the
United States bureau of mines, in his
annual report today to secretary Fish
err attributes the decrease in the NOR
tally to the federal governments work
in the mining fields, and points out how
the enormous death list may be st4u
further reduced.
While much remains to be done, in
Guiding q broad extension of the inyes-
LEGATION of accident and rescue work,
so that it will include metal and other
mineral mines as well as coal, DR..
Holmes shows that whereas there was
an average of 6.9S men killed for ev-
cry 1000 900 tons of coal mined in 1907
in 1903, to SIS the next year, 566 in
1910 and 5.4S in the calendar year
1911. The figures for the year Just
closed, it is estimated, will show fur
Their decrease in the death rate
The death rate in the metal mines of
the country is nearly as high, he de-
clares, as in the coal fields, averaging
more than three men per 1000 emu
plOyed; the death rate in the quarries
is larger than 1t should be, averaging
far more than that IN foreign ouarries.
and the same is true in metallurgicaI
plants. He recommends. therefore. that
the bureau be given money to carry its
mine accident investigation into these
other fields in larger measure than the
limited appropriations so far granted
have allowed
Waste Is Enormous
The enormous annual loss in mining
and preparing coal for market, the
huge waste of natural gas, as well as
lack of efficiency and waste in the
metal mining industries, are men
toned by DIR. Holmes. This extrava-
gance of natural resources, he asserts,
should be checked.
Pioneer educational work, tempo
rary in character" is the way in which
the director refers to the mine rescue
and first aid work among the more
than 200, 900 miners in the $4,000 mines
of the country. Ultimately this must

CATARRH OF

CatarrE of the pharynX is very com

Bad taste IN the mouth. Sometimes it
is noon before the pharynx is in a de-

This is a condition of the pharynx
closely resembling catarrh and is
generally the direct result of habits, al

be taken care of, he says, by the coal
mining companies through the training
and organization of miners at each of
the larger mines or groups of mines. He
states that already number of COM
panies maintain rescue stations at their
own expense. The chief purpose Of the
bureau Of mines is to train miners in
first aid mine rescue and fire fighting
methods; and he adds that during the
year more than 10000 miners have at
tended the lectures and demonstrations
given from the mine sareJy, cars; more
than 1000 additional miners received
training sufficient to enable them to
participate in actual mine rescue work,
and more than twice that number have
been added TO the list of miners
trained in first aid practice
Health Conditions Bad.
Health conditions in and about the
mines should be investigated, in the
opinion of DR.. Holmes. Preliminary
inquiries, he says, have indicated
the prevalence OF tuberculosis and the
presence of hOOkwOrm as miners
diseases in several different localities
in the United States.
THE large and continuous influx Of
foreigners into the mining regions Of
the United States may bring to an in
creasing extent the hOokwOrm and
other diseases that exist in mines in
parts of certain European countries, -
says the report.
During the year every mine in the
United States at which an explosion
or fire OF any note occurred was Wis
tied by one or more engineers of the
bureau. says director Holmes. In all
but two of the mines where large, dis
astrOus explosions have taken place
during the last few years, open lights
were used, he says, and if safety con-
ditions are to be improved. it seems
probable that the use of electric lamps
will be widely extended.
The director dWellS on the necessity
of trying to prevent explosions rather
than check them after they are started
In this connection he calls attention
to the fact that here has been q rev
Olution in the use Of explosives in coal
mining" and the work of the bureau
in investigating explosives has alone
a value far greater than the entire cost
of maintaining the bureau since its es-
adjustment"
