MUST USE BLACK POWDER
Kansas Coal Miners Will Not Be Al
lowed to Use Dynamite.

Under an order issued today by the
Kansas industrial court, acting as coal
priority board, dynamite henceforth
can not be used in mining coal in kan
sas. Miners must use black powder.
In a statement issued by John Craw-
ford, priority chairman, it was set
forth that using dynamite in the coal
diggings reduces SO per cent of the
product to slack, while in using black
powder only rs per cent becomes
slack.
Referring to the use of dynamite,
Judge Crawford said:
This is g. tremendous waste of the
coal deposit of the state and should
be of much public concern. The mar
ket price of lump and nut is regulated
by the per cent of slack In an
attempt to correct this evil, the oper-
atorS producing coal in Kansas and
the provisional officers in District No.
IA have been notified that agree
ments between operators and miners
for the use of dynamite are cancelled.
and in the future no other explosive
than black powder shall be used for
shooting coal in the mines, except by
mutual consent Of the foreman and
mine committee, approved by the
state mine inspector, who may allow
the use of other explosives in the en-
tries or slopes or places regarded as
deficient or faulty"
