[Entered at the Post Office at Pittsburgh, Pa., as Second Class Mail Matter.] PROBABILITY OF A REDUCTION IN THE COAL PRODUCTION THIS YEAR LENDS INTEREST TO THE REPORT OF CHIEF RODERICK, OF THE PENNSYLVANIA DE PARTMENT OF MINES, FOR 1903. In view of the probability that a reduction in the production of coal in the Middle West over last year's figures, will be shown when the totals are made up at the end of the current year, the report for 1903 of James E. Roderick, chief of the department of mines of Pennsylvania, which has just been issued, is of particular interest. As Mr. Roderick says, 1903 was the banner year in the coal annals of Pennsylvania, both for employer and employe. The output reached the point at which it amounted to about one-third of the entire production of the United States and about one-sixth of the entire production of the world. At the time the report was made up operations were active in the 25 Western counties of the state and the outlook was for a still greater increase in production. The industrial depression of the past summer, however, probably will offset the gains made earlier in the year. In the anthracite field, the output during 1903 was 75,232,585 tons, as against 36.911,554 tons in 1902, a gain of 38,321,031 tons. During the same period 103,713,982 tons of bituminous coal were mined, as against 98.970.430 tons the previous year, a gain of nearly five million tons. The production of coke did not materially differ in the two years, being 14,941.091 tons in 1902 and 14,- 286,995 tons in 1903. a decrease of 654,096 tons. It is not to be forgotten that the anthracite output in 1902 was abnormally low, on account of the great strike of the miners in that year. To the same cause was due, in some degree, the large output of 1903, as ine mines were rushed for some time after the end of the strike, in order to make up deficient fuel supplies. The disposition of the bituminous coal mined in 1903 was as follows: Tons. Coal shipped by rail or otherwise 81,127,701 Coal sold directly to local trade or employes 807,223 Coal used in making coke 19,427.436 Coal used in operating collieries 2,351,622 Total coal mined 103,713,982 The percentage used in operating collieries is very much less than in the anthracite mines. The total number of employes reported was 151,745; and the average period of work 216 days. This gives an average of 683 tons mined per employe: or 3.16 tons per day worked. The coal actually used in making coke was 21,- 213,358 tons, including 1,785,922 tons of stored coal carried over from 1902, besides that mined in 1903. The coke statistics were as follows: Tons of coal used in making coke 21,213,358 Tons of coke made 14,286,995 Number of coke ovens in use 37,705 Average coke made per oven 379 The average yield of coke was 67.35 per cent.; in other words, 1.485 tons of coal were required to make a ton of coke. The apparent low average of coke per oven indicates that a considerable proportion must have been idle. Mining machines, which find no place in the anthracite collieries, are extensively used in the bituminous district. Last year there were 390 mines in which machines were used; and the number of coal cutters, of various types, at work was 3,384. Of these, 1,045 were operated by elec-
