NOW ON TRIAL

The case of Oscar II. Lessig. charg-
ed with manslaughfer, is set for trial
in the district court in Colorado
Springs today. Lessig was engineer
of the first engine on the Inflated
northbound Rio Grande passenger
train at Hustled. August II.
Twelve persons were killed, nine
instantly. and 62 were more or less
seriously injured "a a result of the
collision. and IN rhe coroner's inquest
over the body of one OF the victims,
Lessig and four other members of the
northbound train crew were held re-
sponsible for the accident. Jack
Gossagc, the sixth member of the
crew. was instantly killed in the
wreck.
The trainmcn testified that they
had orders TO meet the second section
OF train at Hustled, and that, pass
ing an engine at Hustled. they mistook
IL for the second section which they

THE CRANE INCIDENT.

The responsibilities of the diplo-
matte service are heavy and peculiar.
Sense. discretion and restraint are
prime essentials If Mr.. Charles X
Crane had previously held any diplo-
matte position he would scarcely have
been guilty of the mistake of express
ing himself freely and for publication
about international relations in the
process of development and about
which he had no authority to talk for
public
In asking for Mr.. Cranes resigna-
tion because of this indiscretion. Sec
retary Knox is probably more mind
full of the good of the service in gem
eral than distrustful of Mr.. Cranes
usefulness in the future. for, barring
practical experience, Mr.. Crane Is
well equipped for diplomacy, and
probably would be immune from a
repetition of the blunder that has
closed possible career to him.
The incident suggests pretty
strongly that the important diplo-
matte posts should be filled by pro-
motion rather than by making new
appointments to the service. policy
that was strongly urged by John
Hay. was largely enforced by Elihu
Root and was especially favored by
President Roosevelt. The delicate
problems of diplomacy are safest in
the hands of those who have learned,
through the minor positions, the
heavy responsibilities that rest on the
official representatives of nations in
International affairs. From the

Washington, d. c.. Oct. 27.-'The
civilized world has indeed arrived at
an era of low mortality"
This conclusion is stated in Census
Bureau Bulletin, i04. on mortality
statistics for 1908. prepared by Dr.
Greasy L. Wilbur, chief statistician
for vital statistics under Director
Duraud who has transmitted it TO
Secretary Nagel of the Department of
Commerce and Labor.
The death rate of the seventeen
registration states in 1908 was 5. 3
per 900 Of population which was
slightly lower than that for the entire
registration area. 1914 per 900. and
Il is the lowest record Dr. Wilbur
states 1t is probably the lowest death
rate that has ever occurred in the
United States.
The death rate of the rural por-
tions of these states was still lower.

Of the urban population was 16.5 per
1000: the latter including all cities
aaving population of 5000 or more
inhabitants in 1900, and being. as
usual, somewhat greater than the
rural rate. Such rates would have
seemed quite out of the question a
few years ago.
The death rate of England and
Wales for 1908 was only 147 per
1000 of population. and of London
Sor the same year, 1873 per 900.
For each year since 1893 the death
rate of England and Wales has been
less than 16 per 1000. with the ex-
eeption of the year 1904 for which
IL 4 ynhf
rate as low has been recorded for any
previous years of registration
The District of Columbia and sew
enty-four registration cities in non
registration states, together with the
registration states. made up the ag-
sregate registration area for 1908,
whose total estimated population for
the year was 45,02S,767 or over one
half t51.S per cent? of the total esti-
mated population of the continental
United States. which was S6.S74,990.
The total number of deaths return
ed for the year 9OS from the aggre-
gate registration area was 69l, ,574.
For the preceding year the number of
deaths was 6ST ,034, or only 4.540|
less than the 1908 returns, although
the registration area for 1908 was
increased by Washington and Wiscon-
sin. The year 1908 was one of re-
markably low mortality throughout
sbo United States so far as can be
determined from the available regis
tration records and was marked by a
general absence of severe epidemics
and of unusual mortality from other
causes.
