Report of the Bureau of Mines of the Department of Internal Affairs of ...

NOTE,
Since the table showing the production, shipmenis, quantity used for
steam and heat and sold to local trade in the anthracite region went to
the printer, it has been discovered that the 2nd, 5th and 7th Inspectors,
in the distribution of coal in their several districts, fail to account
for all the coal produced. It would, therefore, be impossible to state
which is correct, total shipments, or that sold to local trade and used
in mines for steam and heat. The 1st, 6th and 8th districts show that there
was more coal shipped, sold to local trade and used for steam and heat,
than was produced. A reference to the 8th Inspector's report, table 2,
will show that the difference, 13,380 tons was brought from other mines
of the company and used at the Wadesville shaft for steam and heat.
The 1st bituminous Inspector's report shows that 6,379 tons aie unaccounted
for. Cuke is manufactured in all the othei" districts, and a-^
the quantity of coal made into coke is not stated, it would be impossibl:>
to tell if the distribution of the production is correct.
