Of thia"" production Pennsylvania anthracite' amounted to 90,464,067 Short tons, valued at $174,952,415, and bituminous coal and lignite to 409/ 724,241 totts, valued at $450,957,698. The decrease in production in 1911 was 6,408,070 tons, or a little over 1 per cent, in quantity, and $3,646,908 or a little over 0.5 per cent, in value. The decreaae is attributed by Mr Parker wholly to the depressed con dition of the Iron and steel trade In 1911, which was reflected in the de- creased production of coke. The three leading coke producing state* alone showed an aggregate decrease of nearly 9,000,000 short tons of coal.' will drive a 8tuts, entered by the Chi? eago agent, and either.Len Zengel or 't^f^^i^li gel'tan^^ miles Charley Merx the 8tuts named -^^^.factory,lsi the race for .eAfj^^$|^|i^^;;;ifi^ slon, which wlU W nm simultaneous* ly with the llgh^^ event the first day. .....^■.;..

After hunting for two hours they fonnd the man dead on the front porch of I960 8heridan road. It is thought heart trouble was the cause of his sddden death, - ' In October, 1895, Miller Joined the local police department Three years later he resigned and! shortly after took the position as private watchman &,' 8nonid f„ across I ^IU hring I champioii and the- k dnsmit jut Bruce-Brown, for the residents in the vicinity of the lake front. During hit years of service he always) reached his home about five o'clock in the morntng, When he failed to appear this' morn- ing his wife feared something was wrong and went to look for him. After searching for two hours his life- less form was round on the porch of one of the houses he was watching. It is evident that Miller had gome to porch to see if the front door was Deoreass'Made Up. The decrease In the production of bituminous coal compared with 1910 was 11,386,901 tens, out this loss waa largely made up by the increase in short tbW greater than itt>|ei0. Considering the marked decrease in the production and consumption of coke and the fact that large quanti- ties of coal In addition to that used for coke making are consumed in the iron trade, the comparatively small net decrease of less than 6,000,000 tons in coal production must be taken as an indication that other manu- facturing industries, the transporta- tion companies, and the country gen- erally were prosperous. The average price for bituminous coal was 1 per cent a ton lower in 1911 than in l»i4 and that of anthracite was 8 centa higher. ;J||| - The total numjplif men employed in the coal mtlmf of the United States in 1911 waf 722,322, of which 172,585 worked |^a the anthracite1 mines of Pennsylvania. The average number of day a worked in the anthra- cite mines was 246 and in the other mines 111, The average production per man was 3^ tons a day in the bituminous and, lignite . mines and 2.13 tons < a day in the anthracite.
