NINETY-EIGHT HUNDRED
KILLED IN SINGLE YEAR
German Statistician Complies
Amazing Figures of Dead
and Injured Here and in
European Countries,

Berlin. July 24.-Herr Gurley. an
official of the archive bureau of the
Prussian railway administration. has
prepared a comparative table of statis-
tics Of those killed and injured by rail-
ways i'm various countries. He finds
that both absolutely and relatively the
railroads i'm the United States are the
most deadly. The United States has
more mileage than all Europe, but
even taking that into consideration,
the United States holds pre-eminence
in proportion to figures.
Herr Gurley finds that in single
year-the fiscal year Of 1903 ., 90
persons were injured in the United
States Of whom 10000 We're employees
and $500 were killed of whom 5000
We're employees.
In the matter Of travellers injured.
France holds the lowest record in the
world. The United States shows pro-
portiOnately forty times as many In
jured as Russia, twenty-five times as
many as italy. as England, twenty; as
