Ihos. E. Lightfoot, Engineer in
charge of accident prevention
of the Koppers Coal company.
This edition of the Koppers
Shopper is devoted almost en-
tirely to the subject of safety
in our mines. If you were to
read that the entire population
of the cities of Parkersburg and
Charleston were wiped out with
in a year due to every man, wo-
man and child being killed in an
accident, you woul be horror
Stricken. And yet that is the
number of people who met. acct
dental deaths in these United
States during the year 1888,
$4,000 to be exact. $4,000 of
these fatalities occurred on the
public highways; $4,000 in the
homes; 16,500 in industry, to
which the mining industry con-
triPuted more than it's share,
and the balance in various I'M
classified groups.
Of the fatal accidents in in
dustry, those in the coal mines
played an important part, and
in West Virginia last year 239
mine workers were killed. In
the mines of the koppers Coal
company thirty four men lost
their lives and it is to reduce
this toll of fatalities that the
Koppers Coal company has now
set about with every bit of
energy at its command.
Accidents in coal mines arc
lie frequent now than they
were ten years ago, and particul-
arly is this true in the mines !
Of the Koppers Coal company, !
for 1890 the number of tons pro- /
duced for each lost-time acct |
dent was 8,493 tons. In 1893 Il |
was 24,600 tons. This is an i'm
provement, but is not sufficient
to justify he management to
feel that safety in Koppers
mines has reached the point
where they can conscicnf 'ously
say Koppers mines are yet as
safe as they can be.
T e Koppers Coal company
has spent thousands and thous-
ands q dollars in an effort to do
its part towards making Their
mines safe Timbers for support
ing the roof have been furnished
without stint; electric cap
lamps have been installed. rock !
busting has steadily increased g
both in the number of mines f

OF dust applied for each ton y
