TALITIES N ALASKA MINES SMALL IN 1927 Ten Die During Yeat from Accidents—-Non-Fatal Accidents Fewer There were ten fatal accidents i8 all beanches of the mining ia- dustry in Alaska in 1927, accord- thg_ to official figures made pub- He today by B. D. Stewart, Acting Perritorial Mining Inspector and ral - Mining Supervisor for aska. This is two more than in zl-"hn!_ the percentage of fatali- 8 to. the number of men em- Byed .in the industry remaincd ut the same owing to the fact that a considerably larger niimber engaged in the operations ir R7 than in 1926. " No definite figures are available &t this time on serious, non-fatal | &écidents, Mr. Stewart said. Hov- dwer, sufficient information is at Band to determine that these Were less than In 1926 when the entage was much below that the industry as a whole for entire country. It is estl Mated that about 4,600 men were émployed in mining during the » Local Loss Smaller 8ix of the reported fatalitiés oc carred in the quartz minfag Branch of the industry; one from s accident in a marble quarry; tWo died in placer mining opera- tlons; and one was killed in a &6h] mine. “The Alaska Juneau had but two fatsl accidenta in 1927 as com- PAred to tive in 1926. The natural Rizards in the local mine remain- @2 about the same and the d is belleved by Mr. Stewart %8 be the result of a more highly M4 better trained force, togethor #ith the company's persistent campaign of impressing upon its Sen the policy of “satety first.” %Two deaths occurred in the op- érations at the Kennecott mine g the year while in 1920 none. One was reported the Riverside Mine at Hyder, the sixth quartz fatality was | the Mabel mine at Willow v One in Coal Mine The second death to occur in the past six years from accident f the ‘Alaska coal mining indus- thy was reported late in the year tiom the Healy River Coal Com- s mine at Suntrana. Thh, Stewart said, is a& unique ord in coal mining.
