suaeAu's REPORT.

Washington, March 24.--The year
1913 was more fatal for coal miners
ii the United tates than the proceed.
ing IL months. a report issued to.
day by the bureau of mines showed
an increase OF fatalities Of 425 over
| 1912, and 10 deaths for every work.
ing day in the year. In the army of
72S, 355 underground workers, 3,785
perished, a fatality rate Of 1882 in ev-
cry 1000 men employed, as compar.
ed with 1927 in 1912. Six thousand
more men were employed in 1913,
and the increase in production was
between 3O.O0O,000 and 40, O0O,O 900
tons ri. l,t s,s
Comment by Dr.. Holmes. W.
DR.. Joseph A. Holmes, director Of
the bureau, in commenting upon the
record for the year said:
AN examination of the statistics
develops the disappointing fact that
in our coal mining operations duriag
1913 there were killed 425 more men
than during 1912. This is an in.
crease of Is per cent in fatal acct.
dents, with an increase of only s per
cent in coal production.
I'VE can find little comfort in the
suggestion that this increase may be
I'm part accounted for by the occur
renee during 1912 of four large mine
explosions. The statistics show an
increase in fatalities during 1918 from
all the underground causes except
mine fires and surface accidents.
Some progress has been made,
however, in the safety movement, as
shown by the statistics for the last
eight years. In the four years end
ing December g., 1909, the average
death rate was 3.97 for each 1000
men employed. In the last four years
the rate was 1858.
Inquiries Inadequate.
ut is unfortunate that the safety
inquiries and Investigations by the
national government, upon which so
much depends. have Jagged so far be-
hind the needs Of the. industry and
public demand. 1t is hoped that this
situation may be remedied at an ear.
