AccordiiiKly a paper on the subject presented to the American JlininK' coiiKress at Chicago on November M, 1910, by Director Geot'Ke Otis Smith and C. Ii. Lesher of thu United States Keolojrical survey, atid reprinted in Science ami other scientific journals, in particularly welcome as it supplies the fundamental facts on which any present or future plans for government control or operation or ownership must be based. Such facts, it is unnecessary to say, fcldom appear in popular or jwlitical discussions, even if they are known, which may be disputed. In the coal industry the first cost or mining cost represents the value given to a ton of coal by the mine operator and mine worker, Including thu expenditure for wages, supplies nnd power, the op erator's selling costs nnd his overhead expenses nnd thu original or resource co.st the royalty or depletion charge and tho profit or loss on thu sale. These elements vary greatly between districts and even between mines of the same owners in the same district. According to the paper, "it is not practicable to assign n very exact figuru to tho mining cost the census of 1909 indicated an aver nge of one dollar a ton for bituminous coal and $1.8G for anthra cite, but these figures are believed by .some operators to be too low. It is possible, however, to show in a general way the distribu tion of thi.f item the cost of mining is divided between labor, 70 to 75 per cent; materials, lo to 20 per cent; general expense at mine and office and insurance, 2 to 4 per cent; taxes, less than 1 per cent to 'I per cent for bituminous coal, ami 3 to 7 per cent for (.uthracite; selling expense, nothing to G per cent, ami recently to those items has been added thu direct and Indirect cost of work man's compensation, which may reach ft per cont for bituminous coal." Now the co.st of selling coal must be considered, for it may he little or nothing for some producers who hell to themselves or direct to tho railways, or it may be as much as fifteen cents a ton for preparetl sizes of antracitc. Hut the important oloment is the tiansportatlon charge, which varies naturally with thu length of haul.

In part, the deterioration nre together seldom less than 1 per cent or the weight nnd may exceed 4 per cent, nnd tho retail dealer alno must prnvldo In hi nelllng price for uncollectible accounts. Advertising Is a largo expense In pnrt carried by the retailer directly, but all borne(by the In dustry Tha largest single Item In the cost of retailing Is, of course, that rep rmentlng the labor of handling nnd the local cartage, which together make up alMiut half the marketing coit With all these various costs discussed nnd analysed, there re mains to be considered n primary one, nnmcly, the resource cost or thu cost to the operator of the conl in the ground, usually ex pressed as a roynlty or depletion chnrge. The present nvernge rnlo or ro)ntt) on anthracite l probably between thirl) -tin and thirty-five cents n ton on nil sites, which Is from 12 to II per cent of the selling vnlue nt thn mine The minimum rnto (about 10 per cent) In found In rome old leases, and the mnxlmum (20 to 27 per cent) In teases made In the Inst five )enrs. It V Norrls states that In tho late sixties, when the annual output of nnthrnclte wns around 10,000,000 tons, roynllliH were eight to ten cents n ton on pre pn red sizes, but that no chnrge wns mndo on thi smaller sties. In the seventies the rate rose to twenty-five vents on pre oared, one-half that utt pea nnd one-fourth on smaller sizes. Striking n balance between labor's share nnd capltnl's return, it would lie found Hint "the mine worker, the trnlnmnn nnd wngon driver together receive fully half of the price of the nnthrnclte de livered nt your house, nnd the same three classes of labor receive not less thnn hnlf the price paid by the nvernge consumer for the chenper soft conl. In n similnr manner the nvernge return on tho capital invested in land, mining plant, railroads nnd coalynrd mny be roughly calculated with the result that landlord, bondholder uml stockholder of conl compnny and rnllrond together receive nbout $1.15 from the ton of nnthrnclte nnd only fifty to seventy five cents from the ton of bituminous conl, nnd of cither of these amounts the mine operator's share is only n smnll fraction. There seems to be little hope of reducing costs in mining methods or unges, but the most promising source of relief seems to lie in re ducing trnnsportntlon chnrges through n shortened length of hnul. Though many n consumer's preference for conl from n dl-tanl rield over Hint from n field nearer home Is Imsed on sppclnl requirements, tho deciding eli ment In the preference of other consumers Is simply the prim, nml this. In turn, mny be largely dun lo a dlfrcrcntlnl freight scnle, which Is thus not In the public Inlet cut. If vve ndmlt tlm primlsn Hint It Is wasteful to burn conl In limiting coal Into conl districts or past such districts, cxcipl In so fnr as tpinllly requirements alnoltilcly deninnd thu long hnul conl Tho recent eastward inoveminl of the higher grndn con Is, In pnrt caused b) the export itcmnnd, mny Involve some Increase In the nvernge lencth of haul, mid thus In the tratispaitntlon cost of conl not exported, but, on the other hnnd, this en fori ed adjustment mn) lend somo consiimira to discover nenrcr home sources ot conl eqtinlt) well sillied to their purposes.

The conclusion is drawn thnt "n.i conl Is more nn Intcrstntc thnn Intrastnto commodity, nny regulation of prices needs to be under federal control, nnd to benefit both consumer uml produce such control cannot stop with trnnsnortntlon nnd mining costs but must stnnd rendy to exercise full rights ns n trustee of the people over tho conl in tho ground.
