The Missouri Pacific and Western Pacific, which connect with the Denver and Bio Grande Western, are both seeking control of the reorganisation of the road, Sutro says, without regard for the interests of the securityholders. Samuel Untermyer, counsel for the Sutro committee, has advised it to insist upon the Denver and Rio Grande Western defaulting on the next payment of the roads consolidated bonds in order that the sale of a large block of Utah Fuel eomiwny stock held by the road may be forced and the proceeds used to reduce prior liens in the interests of the refunding and adjustment bondholders. He also advised the committee to apply to the interstate commerce commission for a publie hearing and an investigation of the entire Denver and Rio Grande Western, the Western Pacific and Missouri Pacific history and interrelations past and pre sent. Application will be made, it was announced, for the Sutro committees certificates of deposit to be listed on the New York Stock exchange. FACTS FINDING COMMITTEE IS NAMED BY HARDING WASHINGTON, D.

LOSS OF LIFE IE THE MIHES IS EOW CUT IE HALF Loas of life in the mining industry has been decreased proportionately 50 per rent during the period from 1907 to 1922, according to the annual rejiort of the American Mining congress presented st the second session of its six days convention at Cleveland, O., last h, Monday. The report read by. J. F. secretary of ths congress, declared that three yean before the bureau of mines was established the loss of life was increasing in such a frightful ratio that in 1907 ths congress secured an appropriation of fifty thousand dollars from the government to investigate causes of mine accidents and to recommend methods to decrease the In 1907 the loss of mine fatalities. life in coal mines er one thousand men employed was 4.81 per cent, and the life loss per million tons of coal mined was 6.78 per cent. In 1920 the life loss tier thousand men employed in the industry was 2.89 and per million tons of coal mined 3.39 per cent. If the life loss per man aa compared to the number of tons mined had maintained the same ratio in 1920, as 1907, the number of fatalities would have reached 4463, but the actual loss was 2271, s saving of 2192 lives annually. The report declared that mine safety was the only common ground on which the miners and operators have ever been able to meet and that the congress is now striving to broaden thia as s means of harmonizing in- Cltsrk ERNEST 8.
