Of Explosions Keeps Down
the fatalities

Washington, April There is no
exact measure Of the losses from
mine accidents and mineral waste,
but we may use an approximate
measure. II the increasing rate Of
coal mine fatalities during 1905 1906
and 1907, the three. years prior to the
beginning of this work, had contin.
ued throughout the four sub sequent
years, since congress" authorized these
.nine.explosi0n investigations, the
number of fatalities would have been
at least 1000 greater than they nave
actually been.
At approximately the, average com.
pensation paid in fatal mine ACCT
dents Of, the past few years, this
would represent a. national loss of
$12, O0O, 900 in the four years.
II. it is remembered that for every
fatal accident there are at least
three to five serious non.fatal acci-
dents, and twelve lesser accidents
which i~ncapacitate for one or more
days, it will be seen that the actual
national loss expressed in money val
ue would have been much larger.

M,0SB,D00 a day. This loss for the
most part is not such as may De con-
