Like tho man who thinks hu own truin u motion beesupo the one alongside it movm In an opposite direction, the silver men insist that instead of all other prices ( including that of silver) having fillou, the iirie of gold has really risen, and the price if(!vcrything else has stood still. They assert that there has been a steady hangi' in tho ratio of a dollar in gold to a given quantity in grain, cotton, clothing, fuoil and silver, and nrguo that sinco ono dollar In gold will buy more of all commodi tii i m the markets of the world to-day than at ilii in 1873. gold has advanced in value, v hllo tho vnluc of other articles lias stood still. Hence, their constant assertion that ' gold has appreciated." Lot u.s seo. To appreciate means to increase in value. Anything which increases in value, does so either because it has grown relatUely scarce, or because each individual needs inoio of it for his daily use. Now has this hap pened about gold V Fifty years ago tho world had a billion p-jople in round numbers; now it has a billion and a half. The population lias Increased llfty per cent. In fifty yoars. Has tho gold of the world increased nt the same rate as tho population V If to, have wo any right to assume that gold has appreciated? If it appears that it has increased more rapidly than the population, would it not rather depreciate than appreciate? Let us examine the figures, from tho best authorities of the world, Sottbeer, Mulhall, I'icstoii and others. Mulhall indicates that tho amount of gold in the world, coined and uncoined, fifty years ago amounted to less than $,300,OUO,000. Taking Ids ilguies for lhl)0 mid adding the production since that slate, tho gold in the world to-day, coiucdand uncoined, Is shown to be over $7,000,000,0(10. Thus it will he seen that the w orld apparently has about thric times as much gold to-day as it had fifty years ago. If there had been no increase in population in tho meantime there would thus bo three times as much gold for each person now us there was a half century ago. Hut the popu lation has increased 50 per cent., so there is apparently twice as much gold in tho world TbtuaiJi individual as there was at that time. Hut tlifs is not all. l'ifty years ago unly a:) per cent, of the gold of the world was coined into money. Now 00 per cent, of it is coined. So It appears that, while tho per capita of gold has been doubled, tho propor tion of that gold winch is turned into coin lias also doubled. This means that there is four times as much gold coin for each in dividual in the world to-day as there win fifty yean ago. Of the total money of tho world fifty years 1 jijro only 20 per cent, was gold. Now nearly ; per cent, of tho money of tho world cold Ilnd the demand for money luoieastd nunc rapidly than the gold incroukud there would have been a greator proportionate, growth of the other kinds of monoy, either hllver ur iuijior or both, for both aro plentiful and are .onstautly used for currency every t where. Ilutthoir proportion has decreased while tho proportion of gold has increased "Hut," say the friends of silver, "the mere fact that gold money has increased does nut prove that it is sufficient to meet tho wants . of business, because since tlio crime of lh7H 'in this country and similar crimes about the bii me date in other countries, the quantity of , silver money lias docreated." Lot us see about that. Preston, the Director of the Vuitod States Mint, estimates tlmt the world'B silver money in 1873 was Jl, 817,000, 001). He estimates the world's silver money to day to be 4,070,.VM),000, of which amount $:i,l 10,700,000 is full legal tender. Thus the silver luunoy ot tbo world Has apparently inure than doubled since 17U. This shows the utter fallacy of the argumeut of the silver pcoplu that silver money has been re ' diced si "Co 1873. It is intoroting in this connectiitn ulso to note that the paper money of the wrld has trebled In tho past half century, vaving been in 18-18, according to Mulhall, ?I,300,000,0O0, and in l&tiO, $3,875,. OOO.OOO. There is still another light In which this currency iiucstlou should bo considered. If tho value of a house ' appreciates tho tout increases; proportionately. If it depreciates in vl" tbo rout rails, xiiif. rule applies equally and the use of tho medium of exchange which isses lietwcen them and their customers and takos the placo of the inoro bulky and less convenient coin. Fifty years ago tho man who engaged In commerce carried with him tho gold with which to inoko his purchases. Now he deposits his monoy In bank, tho banker loans a given pro portion of hlsderosits to thoso whodeslro Its immediate use, and it is kept in active circu lation meantime. Tlio owner of the gold takes in its stoad a slip of paper, a draft or bill of exchange, good wherever ho may pro- sent It, and if ho wants more, It is trans ferred half way around tho world on his de maud by telcgrarh, in tho twinkling of an eye. Thus tho stock of money, which has itself enormously Increased, Is multiplied many times by tho fact that it is used over and over again, with ten or twenty times tho frequency that it was a half century ago. Hut thore U one more tnt of tho actual valuo of gold, a tost which does not depend upon theories or tedious Inquiry as to quale titles of money or methods of business trans action. ThU test Is a simplo one, but the mmt Important, tho most accurate and far- reaching of all those which havo been applied Tho real standard of valuo in tho world is labor. It is this which produces all com modities, tho necessities us well as tho com forts and luxnrles of life. Tho food wo cut, tho clothos we woar, tho housoa in which we live, the necessities which a half contury ago wcro considered luxuries, aro all th result of labor, and tho money which is paid for thorn measures tho hours of labor which pro duces them. I.nbor u, then, the real sUnd&rd by which to measuro gold. A committee, of tho Vnitcd States Senate, known as tho Aldrich Committee, mado thorough investigation a few yearsogolnto tho question of wages and prices, and after a long and thorough research mado a report, tho accuracy of which is ovorywhero accepted That investigation showed that a day's labor In nearly all tho trade would, in 1S90, buy about double tho amount of gold that it did fifty years earlier, and do it with less hours of work in a day. For instance, plasterers who, in the good old free-silver days of llO, gotfl.no per day were paid 3.G0 in 18SM; blacksmiths who rocelvod $1.50 per day in 1810, got $3.00 in lbtlO; painters whoso wages In 18t0 were $1.25. in 1800 were paid $2.50: wheelwrights who turned $1.25 in 1810 got $2.50 in lbHO; engineers who received $2.00 per day in 1810 were paid $-1.23 in 1800 and so on. Taking oleven representative classes of workingmcn, engaged in tlio particular in dustries, as a basis, it was found that tho average rate of wages advanced from $1.30 per day in ,18-10 to $2.37 in 1SU0, or that an hour of labor would earn nearly twico as much Bold in 1800 as it did in 1840. How then can it be assorted that gold has "appreciated ?" It has depreciated, and that highest and noblest of all standards, human labor, w ill to-day buy more of it than it did fifty years ago, whilo the depreciated gold thus purchased can in turn bo exchanged for more of other commodities which have still further depreciated by the improved methods of production, manufacture and transporta tion which the ingenuity of tho human mind havo produced in the wouderful age in which we are living. at IMttstou. It Is to mmo extent more In. tcrosting than the preceding chapters and other publications, In that it details tho causos of the squeeze that caused tho Ill- fated men to nndortnko tho repair work; gives the grounds upon which tho commis sion bases Its opinion that Superintendent Lnngau erred in his judgment In conducting the work; and details measures that should bo incorporated ns laws to proven t such ac cidents. Another important feature of this Installment is tho conclusion that ono of tho causes of tho disaster was an explosion of gas, brought on by tho men engaged in tho repairing working with naked lamiis.

The percentage of coal that should lie left as pillar supports Is a matter about Which opinions differ, for It Is Subordinate to ml- niostlonablo conditions which may exist on tlio surface, or from tho surface down to tho top of tho coal seaul and Immediately under it. Ono mlno superintendent may determine to leavo 00 per cent, of uumlncd coal as pillar supports, while another wonld consider to per cent, sufficient for all purposes. In either case, howovcr, tbo mine superintend ent has tho absolute right to decide and to dictate what tho dimensions of tho mino openings and pillars shall 1ms. There is no sute law that gives to the Mino Inspector a discretionary power in this matter, except in casus where ho sees Indications of danger to tbo lives of the workmen, It then would bo his dnty to advLso with tho colliery officials as to tlio proier meus to bo taken to romovo tho danger, and, if forced to do so, appeal to tho court for an injunction to restrain tho opera tor from further mining until tho colliery, or section thereof, has been mado permanently safe. In connoctton with tho Twin Shaft workings Mrv McDonald considered tho pillars large enough and did not expect n squeeze to take place on awouut of woak supports. Ho did not too any indications of a squoezo on any of his inspection visits to the colliery, nor was hu ever notified of any trouble of a character demanding spocial attention. Artie! 14, Section 3 of the Mino Ventila tion Law reads : "Tho owner, operator or uponutondeiit of a mino or eolliory, shall without delay give notice to the Inspector of tho District in which said mine or colliery is situdtod in any or all of the following casos, caso slxtli : wncro a squeeze, or crash, or any other cause, or change may Heem to afi'ect tho safety of porsons omployod in any mine, or where flro occurs, or a dangerons body of gas is found in any mine." Now, not only was tho Twin Shaft affected by a terrible subsidence ot tlio overlying strata, nut u largo body of gas had accumulated nest of No. 3 slope. This gas, no doubt, had collected thero by reason of the air passago being obstructed by a fall of tho roof, and tho fracturing of the roof strata liberating the confined gas. Gas is a very dangerous ole- incut to contend with, especially so when a crash of tho roof strata takes place. It was known that all the workmen at tho foot of No. 3 slope were using naked lamps, and that the gas was "shoving out" to that point. The squcczo hail assumed certain propor tions which mado it pov,iblo ut any moment for a fall to take place of such dimensions as to displace the gas, causing it to coino into contact with tho naked lamps, when a tor rihlo explosion would have been tho rosult, Wo iiImi take into consideration the fact tliat tlio men's lives were in imminent danger from an explosion of gas, even if they had been using safety lamps, for, should a local fall of the roof have taken place, it would have foiced tho gas out at such a high velocity that tho tlamo of the safety lamps would have been forced through tlio gauzo md ignited the exterior gas. After tho ex tensive fall, however, there was no evidence left to prove that there had been an explosion f gas ; yet there is reason to believo that an xplusiou may have occurred, tor, according to tlio evidence, precautionary measures were not taken to prevent it. Tlio absence of ndications which geueially follow nn explos ion of gas would not prove, in connection with this accident, that the gas was not ignited, becau-,0 tlui cave-in may have oc. urred subsequently to the explosion, which in this case, destroyed or buried all iudica tlons such as scattered fragments of timber, Again, the residue from combustion called choke damp could have been diluted before tho rescuing party could havo reached the point whero It was likely to lie found Whether an explosion occurred or not w have no positive proof. We have evidence, however, that naked lamps were used on the night of the accident, and tho charocter of tho sqneezo and the rosults produced there from wero such ns would lead us to presume that an explosion did occur. . Dlllercnt opinions aro advanced by mining men as to what is the original cause of a min squeeze. Tills subject needs but little dis- cussiun, because a squeeze will never occur whero tho pillar supports aro strong enoug to sustain tho overlying strata, where tho roof strata Is triable and dislocated ilippy," the chambers or breasts must b driven narrower than where tho roof strata is comparatively stronger. The roof strata, however, at tho Twin Shaft mine was notu usually friable, and no fears were entertained that a sudden displacement of a large urea of tho overlying strata would tako place, an wo failed to learn that It had become publicly kuown that a eave-in was likely to occur. It is true we often meet with a dislocation i tlio strata, such as the "mud crack," found near the bore hole in front of the workings marked on map "Kiev. bur. 51U.27. Those features in the coal fofmiitiou vury otto give much trouble in keeping the roof of the vein from falling down, o thuy generally weaken the surroundings. Mill tho trouble will bo ouly local where the pillars are for med large enough to sustain the load ov them under ordinary conditions. From our oxiKirience, however, all mino squeeze, general or local, come on gradually and the indications aro always very manifest to the ear or to the eye, such as the cracking of the roof roek iiefore an entlie separation takes place, and an occasional fall. Thoso are evidences that sooner or later wo may ex pect a collapse unless tho squeeze can bo arrested. A gradual subsidence may con tinue for days, wecivs, or even mouths, be fore tho filial separation takes placo; yet plonty of warning and tlmo are given for all to escape from under the fall. In view of this fact it will bo icadily seen, even by tho uninitiated, that loss of life does not neces sarily attend a mino sqneezo if those, whoso duty it is to direct, will use all precautions to prevent tho workmen from working uuderit. Mr. Langau, mine suieriutendeut, has directed what size tlio pillars should be formed in tho Twin Shaft mluo and his Judgment In this respect was endorsod by Mri McDonald, Mine Inspector, who testified that he Considered tho pillars in that initio largo enough. Mr. Langau not only had xoniidonto in tlio strength of tho pillars throughout his entire colliery, hut he was persol . directing tho work that wasnoc- oasarf his opluluu, toj arrest tho squeeze LiXOfenl lnnir hv Ml feet wido Under Lackawanna river, oxtcndlng from tho meri dian linn west in ntid under tho cclltro of tho Susquehanna river opposite Scovell's Island, Where tho two veins havo been worked, as shown on tho map! tho pillars and chambers of tho upporrcin oro not all Immediately abovo thoso in tho lower. This, to somo ex tent, BUpcrlnducod tho squcczi nnd canted tho falling down of coal and rock into tho No. 0 vein, and, although tho openings mado by these falls wcro flllod up with rcfuso and "cogs" built with logs, thoso substitutes could by no modus bo considered equal in strength to the coal in Its unbroken state; becauso, In proportion to tho height of even a closely built nlllar-sunnnrtof either rock or wood, ns they aro gcuerally built In mines, so will Ikj tho dlstanco they will be compressod by tho weight of tho overlying strata.

Our opinion is that, notwithstanding a snueezo did occur at the Twin Shaft colliery, Mr. Langau, who was in charge of tho work, erred in judgment in going so far into tho mino from the bottom ot the shalt. Having gone so tar Irom i means of escape to make au examination o tho squeezing section ot tho colliery, ho put us men to won: to arrest tho siucczo. which io mav havo considered local, and ho and his men worked for hours under tho squeez ing territory until tho collapso camo. So, without a (luestiun nf doubt, his error ol judgment was tho cause of the loss of his own life ns well as ol those subordinate t hiin. Mr. McDonald, tho Mine Inspector, cannot in any way ho hold responsible for tho accident, not having been notified of tho squeezo by tbo Jllno huporlutendcnt. Accompanying our ronort is a tracing two veins mined sliiultnncously, with breast over breast, pillar over pillar, which i3 tlie only safe method of mining coal wlice tho veins aro close to ono another ; also a tracing showing tbo plan ot mlnlng-coal Irom groups of ten breasts between reservation pillars, No. 2 shows that the breasts may bo opened a' an nnulu to the L-anirwav. other than : right angle, and tho bicasts on tho one sido of tlio gangway opened opposite a pillar on tho other sido.

This method of mining strengthens the surroundings of nil tbo upeniugs and increases tho safety ot tho worKmeii, lor should a squoczo occur, i would bo confined to ono group of breasts or should an oxploslon occur, its effects would bo confined to one group of breasts.
