Denvsr.-The production Of coal in
Colorado In 1918 was S.23z.sIo shrrt
tons. valued At s14.oe5.os0. Compared
with 1919. the returns for 1913 allow
q decrease Of 1.545.a14 tons. or 1853
per cent. in quantity and Of $3.50, PAS.
or 14.13 per cent in value. The
smaller production In 1913. according
to f. w. Parker Il the United States
Geological Survey At Warrington. was
due entirely to strike. called on Sep
TENDER 16 and put into effect . week
later. which reduced the output In the
southern part Of the state for the rest
Of the year to about 10 per cent Of the
normal. The production in 1918 was
the smallest since 1905. Al in numer-
ous other instances Of labor disafSso-
ton, the trouble in Colombo arose
from . demand for the recognition q
the union and led to q contest which
for bitteEness. violence. and baoodshed
has exceeded any similar conflict In
recent history. necessitating first the
state militia and finally the presence
Of federal troops. A condition q war.
faEe stu exists. although mining has
ben resumed with nearly full COM
plement Of men under tho protection
Of the federal authorities. Few Of tho
mines were entirely idle at any time
during the strike. and although 1924
men (more than 60 per cent Of the Az
esage number employed during the
year) were Idle for an average Of rs
Gays each. the average number Of
days the mines worked was z1S. or
two days more than In 1912. when q
production Of practically 11.000.000
tons was mined without single In
stance Of strike or suspension being
reported. The total time Lost was
equal to 70 per cent Of the time made.
from which II appears that except for
The strike the production for the year
would have amounted to about 11,5O0.-
900 tons. or within half q million tons
Of the maximum record Of 1910. It is
doubtful, however, whether. even II
there had been NO interruption by
strikes, the output would have reached
that tonnage or even the record Of
1912, for owing to crop shortage In
adjoining states. there was reduced
demand for both railroad and com
mercial coal.
The miners Of Colorado have good
record for efficiency. In 1912 the
average production by each man en-
ployed was Sl4 tons. and In 1913 1t
was 1853 tons.
Reports to the Bureau Of Mines
show that there were l0S fatal acct
dents in She cod ,mines q Colorado In
1873. an increase Of 10 over 1912.
