over 1900, owing to the greater amount
of traffic to be handled.
The railway capital outstanding was
81, 6SS III. 991, or nearly five times the
amount of the public debt of the Unit
ed States on Nov. 1, 1901, including
certificates and treasury notes. On
the basis of the capitalization, the
roads of the country represent an av-
erage value of ,s61, 52S per mile. The
earnings of the railroads were $t,5SS,-
526,037 during the year, or almost as
much as the national debt of Spain
was in 1899. The operating expenses
of the roads were $1,000, 397, 27O, which
sum if applied to the national debt of
British India of 1899 would have come
pretty close to wiping it out. These
comparisons give a fair idea of the gil
gantic proportions of the railway in
terests in this country.
There were forty-five railroads in the
hands of receivers, a decrease of seven
as compared with the year previous.
The total single-track mileage was
1877 ,237, an increase of 1891 miles FOR
the year.

SOME RAIIROAD FACTS.

The chances of being killed on a
railroad in the United States are not
very much greater than those for be-
ing struck by lightning or dying from
swallowing a fish-bone. According to
the official figures of railway accidents
last year. only one passenger in each
2153, 1859 carried was killed on the rail-
roads. The chances of getting hurt,
however, are considerably larger, the
rate being last year one injured to
each 121, 74S carried. These figures re-
fer solely to passengers, of whom co.,
27S,121 were transported by the rail-
roads of the United States during the
year. The fates, however, do not deal
as kindly with those who are paid
to ride as those who pay to ride. The
ratio of employees killed was / in 400,
and of employees injured l in 26.
The number of persons employed by
the railroads of the country was
i.07i, 1853, about 5000 more people than
there were In the state of Nebraska at
the time of the enumeration OF the
last census. or about twenty-five times
as many persons as constitute the pop
ulation Of the great and sovereign
state OF Nevada with two votes In the
United States Senate. The number ~

1t is stated that the scheme of tax

quite possible that a bill will be framed

of the assembly.

priety of establishing the new tax:
