only that the mileage is much great
er in the state of Illinois, but that the
country is very much more thickly
settled there and that the traffic is
very much denser so that the number
of personal injuries which occur is
very much greater in Illinois than in
Mississippi.
Thus we find that the Illinois Cen
trail Railroad company and the Yazoo
& Mississippi Valley Railroad COM
pany combined, in Mississippi, have
only 20 per cent. as much main line
track as has the Illinois Central Rail-
road company alone in Illinois; that
the operating revenues of those COM
panies in Mississippi are only SO per
cent. as much as the operating reVe-
nues of the Illinois Central Railroad
company in Illinois that Mississippi
has only 81 per cent. of the popula-
ton of the state of Illinois, and the
density of population in Mississippi is
only 80 per cent. of the density of the
population in Illinois.
Yet when we turn to the amount ex-
pended in payment of judgments and
settlements of suits brought on &C.
count of personal injuries, we find
that the total amount expended in
Illinois for the seven years from 1906
to 1912 inclusive was $605,450, while
the total amount expended in Missis-
sippi during the same period was
$S99,546, or approximately 40 per cent.
more than the amount expended in
Illinois.
Judgments and Expenditures.
The operating revenue of the Illinois
Central Railroad company in Illinois
in the year 1912 was $27,S27,027.00
the operating revenue of the two com
panies in Mississippi was $14,S19,92S'
The population of Illinois according to
the United States census for 1910 was
5,63S,591; the population of Mississippi
was 1,797,114. The density of popu'
tion in Illinois in 1910 was 101 persons
per square mile; the density of popula'
ton in Mississippi was 80 persons per
square mile.

paid out in judgments and settlements
on account of personal injuries by

year by the claim department in cases
which were settled before suit was
