Davy, Chief of the Division of Mining Statisties and Technology of the mineral res'ottrees of the' coum An examination of some of the figures try - may not prove uninterestinn,g. The gold product for the year reach- ed 1,60.1,927 fine ounces, valued at $041.75,000, an increase in value over her of rosins employed 2nd at different the melons year of $751/00. pe The l? y silver product was 45,783,632 fine periods.

It is estimated thet the amouut of coal diepla ted by xtattsrai ;gad throughout the country tuning 1894 was 14,X69,830 tons, vein- ed at 422,682428 Of this amount, it is stated, 1s,ir48,830, tons were displaced in Pennsylvania, 750,000 tarts in Ohio, and 660,000 tone in Indiana, The iron xtui steel industries have mach great progress in the l'niteci Staten of recent. years. The. principal' products of last year were: Pntnustit' iron are consumed, 12,060,000 long tons, the value of which at the minesn was 028,944,000. The quantity of imported: iron consumed was 557470 ° long tons. The total iron ore eon. limned during the year was about, 12,650,000 lona tons. The quantity of pigi n meads In 1888 was 6,489,708 long tons; value at furnace, #107,000,- 000. Steel of all kinds produced i 1888, 2,829,4.40 long tons, value works, $ •in,000,000. The total spot value of alll iron and steel nide in 18888, in the first stage of manufacture, J `axgnhax, excluding all duplications, $145,000,- M. A,'liodgert, of Exeter, spent last 000, a decrease of $26,103,000 ins com- pared with 1887. Limestone used 'as flux used in the manufacture of pig iron in 1889, about 54$8,000 long tons, value at. quarry, about $2,219,000. Coming to the coal industry, we find that the total output of the mines, including colliery consumption, was: Pennsylvania. anthracite 41,624,x1 long tons (increase over 1887, 4,045,863 long tons), or 46,619,264 short tons (increase 4,581,367 short tons); all other coals, 102,039,838 short tons (in- crease 14,152,478 tons), making the total output of all coals from mines in the United States, exclusive of slack coal thrown on the dumps, 148,- 659,404 48,659,404 short tons (increase, 18,683,845 tons), valued as follows: anthracite, 889,020,483 (increase, 84,468,302); bitu- minous, $122,497,341 (increase, $24,- 492, 24,492, 685); total value 8211,517,824 (increase, $28,960,987). The figures, it is pointed out, show a notable in- crease in 1888 over 1887 in the aggre- gate output and value of both anthra- c ;e and bituminous coal, although not as great an increase as occurred in 1887 over 1886 in the value of the anthracite, or in the total tonnage of the bituminous coaL The product of salt in 1888 was 8,055- 888 barrels of 280 pounds, veined at 84,377,204. The total value of the mineral pro- ducts of the year specified in the report was $256,245,403; of mineral substan- ces 8328,914,528•, estimated value of unspecified. products, 86,500,000; total product, 0591,659,931. Commenting on the general result of the year's mineral operations, Mr. Day points out that it is recognized that this, is the sum of the valuable means for comparing the total products of different years. The result is :an in- crease of nearly $50,000,000 beyond the value of the product in 1887. In that year nearly every mineral industry. showed an increase, and hence an in- crease was so large was due to rather exceptional conditians Ina few import - Perhaps one of the best means of ex- tenuating the progress of the mining and manufacturing industries of the 'flatted States is to find out the ntun- gn ementxdeew.
