In the newspaper yeur since 1903, according to a report just compiled by the Fed eral Bureau of Mines. Informa tion received from all state mine Inspectors shows a total ot 1973 men killed, as coinpired with 2271 In the preceding year, ot 298 fatalities or moro titan 13 per cent. The decrease was duo largely to the fact that the bituminous mines were Idle much of the year on nc count of the depressed condition of industry In genial and the result ing lack of demand for coal. The output for the year Is estimated by tho U. S. Geological Survey at 494,600.000 net tons, of which 407,000.000 tons was bituminous coal and 87,500,000 tons ,was an thracite, the total production repre senting a decrense of more than 23 per cent below the tonnage mined In 1920. For .every million tons of coal produced, the fatality rate for the past year was 3.99, while for 1920 it was 3.52. Paradoxical as It may seem, it is believed that the Idleness of the mines during much of the year, while resulting In fewer lives being lost, neverthe less was partly responsible for the Increased accident ratio on the basis of production. Underground operations tend to become more hazardous during periods of Idle ness, because! of increased likeli hood of root falls, gas accumula tions, etc., as well as a lessening of the morale of the workmen, re sulting In more frequent accidents whim the men return to work.
