RODERICK AT
BIG CONFERENCE
Important Laws and Regula-
tons Being Worked Out by
Him at the Seashore

Chief Roderick of the Department
of Mines is at Atlantic City this week
attending meeting or a committee
appointed by Van II. Manning, Chief
of the National Bureau of Mines, to
standardize the mine statistical re-
ports of the United States.
The committee of which MIR. Roderick
was made chairman was appointed at
a conference of State and Govern
ment officials in Washington last
February, assembled at the request
of the Secretary of the Interior to
study the methods of making reports
of mine accidents in the various States
including the clasSifications in vogue,
with view of adopting for all the
states a uniform system of making
reports that will be complete and
comprehensive and make possible a
comparison of conditions in the diff
ferent States.
The coal mining industry is rep
resented on the committee by Mr..
Roderick and James Dalrymple, Chief
inspector of Mines OF Colorado; the
metal mining industry is represented
b. George H. Bolin, State Mine In
spector of Arizona and w. B. Oren.
d.
The other members of the Committee
are l.. w. Hatch, Chief Statistician,
New York Industrial Commission,
John Bohlander, president, Illinois
State Mining Board, and Albert H.
Fay, Mining Engineer of the National
Bureau of Mines.
In order that the statistics relative
to accidents may be of the greatest
value to the mining industry at large,
they must be collected and tabulated
on standard basis. With the intro
duction of compensation laws, it is
essential that accurate and reliable
data be available in order that proper
insurance rates may be established
Furthermore, uniform and complete
details offer the inspectors, miners
operators and all others interested an
opportunity to make a true COM
parison of conditions as they exist
in the different States.
The committee expects to complete
its work this week and will then make
its report to the director of the Ma
tional Bureau of Mines, who will en-
deavor to have the various States
adopt the forms and methods as
worked out by the committee.

five thousand employees to get into debt
and to keep in debt, and he has or
ganized system to encourage them in
this and to show them how to do it

which will decide whether the New York

poration shall collect s cents and costs
from Ryder.
II Is not the amount involved. say the

goes to make up the appeal. Upon the
settlement Of the question by the Appel
late Division depends the standing rule
Of the company that any one paying fare
on a train must pay an excess of Ia
cents and receive a rebate check for the
amount.
The trouble resulted when Mr.. Ryder
boarded \ train AT Tarrytown and ten
dered the conductor IL cents and asked
for 2 cents change, the regular fare
being 49, cents. The conductor refused,
demanding s cents more and Offering a
rebate check. The argument continued
all the way to Ossining. and then Mr.
RYDER started a suit to collect the :
cents. A Justice of the peace granted
him Judgment an appeal was taken &c
the County Court and Judge Plat re-
versed the Justice and gave judgmen,
To the corporation for 3 cents and $40
costs. That is the reason Mr.. Ryder
has taken the fight to the Appellate hi
