Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reports of the Inspectors of Mines of the Anthracite Coal Regions of Pennsylvania for the Year 1878 Sir: In accordance with the requirements of the act of Assembly, I have the honor of herewith submitting my annual report of tonnage of coal shipped, list of accidents, and such other matters as may be of interest to those engaged or interested in mining, for the First or Pottsville division of the mining district of Schuylkill. The total number of casualties during the year in the district has been forty-four, classified as follows, viz: Fourteen fatal and thirty non-fatal, which, in comparison with former years and in proportion to the quantity of coal mined, it is a source of infinite gratification to be able to report so great a diminution; and with the same amount of improvement in collieries, and care on the part of those employed in the future, we will soon reach the minimum of casualties in this hazardous business.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reports of the Inspectors of Mines of the Anthracite Coal Regions of Pennsylvania: For the Year 1876 Sir - I herewith submit my Fourth Annual Report as Inspector of Coal Mines for the Third or Shamokin district, for the year ending December 31, 1876, as required by act of Assembly of 1870, giving my report on the general condition of collieries in this district; also the number of fatal and non-fatal accidents during the year, given in tabular form, with remarks on the character of the same. I also report the number of steam engines, boilers, steam and pole pumps, fans, &e., and number of men employed, with number of tons of coal mined and sent to market, and estimated amount of coal consumed at collieries and by employees. It has been customary to report each colliery in detail in former years. This custom has been dispensed with this year as being monotonous and not imparting any new information other than that given in tabular forms, except such collieries where improvements have been made during the year or new ones opened.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reports of the Inspectors of Mines of the Anthracite Coal Regions of Pennsylvania: For the Year 1875 Sir - In compliance with the requirements of an act of General Assem bly of the Commonwealth, approved the fifth day of April, 1870, An Act for the preservation of the records of the inspectors of mines, etc., I have the honor to herewith submit an annual report of all matter of information that came under my official notice, and such other information as had been furnished me by the inspectors of mines during the year, detailing the number of fatal and non-fatal accidents that occurred in their respective districts; and the number of collieries in operation, showing their char acter and condition, the power used and force of hands employed in each. I find by comparison that the fatalities are somewhat less than last year, yet the roll is not as favorable as was anticipated. Since resumption in June fatal accidents were numerous. In Pottsville district 59 collieries were in Operation and produced 629 tons of coal; 28 fatal and 88 non-fatal accidents occurred, leaving 17 widows and 62. Orphans. In Shenandoah district 54 collieries were in op cration, producing tons of coal; 26 fatal and 114 non-fatal acci dents occurred, leaving 11 widows and 49 orphans. In Shamokin district 60 collieries were in operation, producing tons; 38 fatal and 106 non-fatal accidents occurred, leaving 13 widows and 30 orphans. Making an aggregate of 92 deaths, 308 cases of maimed persons, leaving 41 widows and 141 orphans. The character of these casualties will be found detailed in tabulated form hereto subjoined. Investigation into these fatalities will justify the assertion that fully one half of them are the result of carelessness, improper attention and undue disregard of safety, occasioned, to a large extent, by the long suspension, the non-repair of the mines, and the hurry consequent upon resumption.
