Mary Gorham, widow Of the late Rich
ard Gorham, was struck and instantly
killed by a southbound passenger train
on the Richmond, Fredericksburg and
Potomac Railroad between Ravcnsworth
and F'ranconia about $50 o'clock yester-
day afternoon. Mrs. GCrham. ia com
pany with her son Samuel, who lived
near where the accident occurred, were
returning from work in a field. Her son
was crossing the track when the pas
senger train hove in SIGHT.
Mrs. Gorham, evidently fearing that
her son would be run over, ran toward
him and into the train. Her son stepped
on the track before the train reached
him. but the mother was hit and thrown
a considerable distance, many bones in
ner body being broken. The engine was
IN charge OF Engineer James Davis.
Mrs. Gorham was siXty-nine years OF
age and IS survived by her two sons,
Samuel, who lives near where the ac-
cldent occurred, and Thomas. who lives
IN this city in north Payne Street

THE value OF Mr. WaEgaEnan col
lection is. therefore. partly inherent and
partly external Under favorable con-
diuons, such as those that accompanied

Whether this collection viii be sold
under the direction OF the CaJhOuc Uni

gamau estate cannot be said until the
referee, Andrew Y. Bradley, takes ac-
ton. Although the university has ufsJ

in which case they viii be sold under
direction of the trustee, There are half
q dozen pictures in the collection which
are worth more than $4,000 each, and
one IS said TO be worth $4,000
Referee Bradley is stll busy receiving
claims, which are being hled almost
hourly. Cases that came TO light tOda-
indicate that many persons put money
IN Mr.. Waggaman's hands without ask
ing security.

are given, with Sweden holding the dis
tinctiOu of having the lowest death rate.
In 1880 the rate of mortality in Sweden
was III, as compared 70 1913 for 1900.
The United States ranks sixth among
the countries having the lowest death
rates. The percentage Of deaths pei
1000 in this country In 1890 was 1876
against rs for 1900. In England ana
Wales the rate for 1880 was 19.5, and
in 1890 IL had decreased to 1872.
The question as to whether the de-
crease In mortality in 1900 was due TO
temporary causes. such as the compare
tive absence Of epidsmics, more favor
able meteorological conditions or perman-
ent causes, such as improved sanitary
conditions, is dwelt upon in the bulletin.
1t is set forth that the indications are
that the decrease was largely due TO a
lrsseniug OF the mortality from cOusump-
ton, diphtheria, and diseases OF children,
the lower death rate from these causes
being considerably more than sufficient
to Offset the increased mortality from
pneumonia, cancer, heart disease,
apopleXy, and other diseases of old age
The greatest dimiuuJiOu is pointed out
in the bulletin to be in the mortality
from consumption, which. in the regis
tratiOn area, was 1873 per 100000 popu-
latiOn in 1900. while in 1890 10 was 245
