dispose of the body and between the physicians and the undertakers and the coroner and the officers of the law some kind of a record is almost cer- tain to be made somewhere of nearly all the deaths. even on the Indian C. ervations. And when there is a rec ord anywhere one or the other will be concerned in seeing that the facts get to the registrar This is particularly the case under the new law. which makes it imperative on a lot of people to see that the records are kept, while under the old law. things were con- ducted very loosely or entirely neg lected, in some places.
 Dr. Godfrey reports that there is notable improvement in the efficiency of the operation of the new law re- specting both births and deaths and be- lieves that within a few months the plans will be quite efficiently carried out. In some of the remote localities the old law was not observed at all and the new law is. A case in point in Navajo county where as many deaths were reported for the month of August as had been reported for the preceding year. There has been no epidemis and it is not to be suppores that the proportions are in fact, as in- dicated The matter yves merely neg lected last year
 According to the records in Dr. God freys office the deaths Tn Arizona for the year ending September 30, (esti- mating the figures for the missing reports for September) were 2203. made up as follows:
 Fourth quarter 1908 ...... 406
 First quarter 1909 .. w 52s
 Second quarter 1909 ...... 537
 Third quarter 1909 ... 732
 On the fact of it the growing death rate would seem rather startling but it is not to be supposed that the re- ports for. the last quarter of 1908 were anywhere complete. nor were the re- ports of the first and second quarters of this year complete It is possible that even the last quarters report is somewhat short of the facts for it was the first quarter under the actual ad- ministration of the new law.
 There can be no comparison of fig ures showing ratios of increase or de- crease that will be more than approx imately correct until the new law has been under administration for at least a year.

VITAL STATISTICS
 FOR AUGUST 1908
A Growing Efficiency in the Operation
 of the New Law.

Dr. Godfrey, the territorial health officers has received reports from all the counties showing the vital statis tics for August and also for September with the exception of the reports from Graham and Yavapai counties The first reports filed under the provisions of the present or new law were for July when the number of deaths re- ported in the territory were POP The number reported for August was 237 and the number reported for Septem- Der aside from the two missing coun- ties was 163 If the increase in the number of deaths in those counties was not greater than in other counties the total number for September when it is learned will be considerably less than during August
 As reported by counties for August the figures read as follows: Apache s: Cochise 53 Coconino 8; Gila IS: Gra-- ham 13; Maricopa AS; Mohave 1: Nav ajo IS: Pima 45; Pinal 5: Santa Cruz 1: Yavapai IA; Yuma '; Total 237
 The birth reports show q total of 2O7 for the territory during August or thirty less than the number ot deaths against 2l1 births for July. A curious showing is made by Pima county in respect to births. The July report showed 2G births and the Sep tember report shows 17 births but dur ing the intervening month of August the stork must have taken his sum- mer vacation for only births were reported. pr. Godfrey has tried very hard to organize Pima county effici- ently for securing these statistics and believes the disparity of numbers for August is not due to any neglect on the part of the registration foficers or any unusual neglect on the part of physicians and parents in making re- turns. The baby industry is at low ebb.
 But in respect of the statistics gen orally it is a fact that the birth rec ords are less dependable than the death record. and quite naturally. A great many people consider the birth of babe a mere incident of the fam il life that concern no one else and do not think of reporting the fact to the registrar. It is the duty of the at tending physician to see that this is done, but in many instances there is no attending physician. particularly in the case of many of the numerous poorer Mexican families and on the Indian reservations.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

Getting the Traction warrants out of the
local stock market, as was accom-
plished today. owing to the expiration of
the time limit fixed by the company when
the warrants can be used in securing the
right to buy the new issue at par, had the
apparent effect Of stimulating in a slight
degree some Of the other securities.
An advance was made in the price OF
Capital Traction bonds, but no change
was made in the figures for the stock.
The common stock of the Washington
Railway and Electric Company showed no
change but there was an improvement IN
the demand for the preferred stock SO
that the bid advanced to 8O% The asking
price remained at 81.
There we're more indications Of the ex-
istence Of gas stock In the market than
has been the case recently, but that did
not appear to increase the amount OF the
trading At one time 100 or 500 shares
were offered at Il, but that stock was
withdrawn. aud the bid advanced TO u
without bringing out any Of the stock.
The asking price was an eighth OF a
point in advance Of the bid, which indi-
Gates usually that there is no activity
In trading, and that proved to be the
case today. for there were no trans
actions when that point was reached.
Before that ten shares sold for TON, and
also q similar lot for Il. The best bid
for q large lot was 70h for 100 shares.
The advance in the figures for the stock
of the National Savings and Trust Com
pany, so that today the bid for 1t was
221, while yesterday it was 215, is re-
garded as the usual symptom OF some
thing in prospect to the advantage of the
stockholders. In this instance, while no
announcement has been made, 1t is ex-
pected that the ordinary result Of the In
creased and profitable business Of the
company will take place, and that the
stockholders will be called upon to share
in the enlarged earnings Of the COM
pany.
