LESS ACCIDENTS NOW
Says Mishaps are Exaggerated and
Alleges That There is More Danger
On Other Branches of Travel.

Washing on. Nov. 1l.-President
Finley, of the Southern Railway Conf
pany, speaking Of railway accidents
says:
''There has never been time in
the history Of railways when so much
attention has been given to the pre-
vcntion of accidem.s as at present
This is a matter to which railway
managers in all parts of the United
States are giving constant an&. intel
ligent attention. and the accident
bulletins of the Interstate Com
merce Commission show that pro-
gress is being made aHl that the
safety Of railway travel is being in
creased. Thus, in the fiscal year
ended June 80, 1910. there were 395
passengers killed on the railways Of
the United States, or one in every
2,459,957 passengers carried. and
the ratio of passengers killed to the
number of miles travelled was 81 ,S69,-
60 miles. In 1911 the number of
passengers killed was reduced to 1856,
or one in every 2.S0l,7l3 paSsen-
gers carried and one in 93,263, 1877
miles travelled by passengers. In
1912 the number of passengers killed
ed was us. Complete statistics of
passengers carried an miles travel
ed in 1912 are not yet available, but.
IS there was a substantial increase
in passenger traffic over 1911 and the
number of fatalities was less, the
ratio of passengers carried and miles
+. raveled was reduced.
There is, believe an eXsggera-
ted idea Of the danger Of railway
travel. This is due, in ny opinion,
to the wide publication of accounts Of
those occasional accidents. in. which,
unfortunately, number Of passeng-
crs are killed and injured, and to the
fac.. that while complete and accu
rate statistics are compiled by ihe In
terstate Commerce Commission, there
are no complete and reliable $ ats
tics as to other accidents for the
United States as Il whole
For the calendar year 1911. the
census bureau reportel 1881 cases
of accidental death, exclusive Of rail
way accidents As bearing on the
! comparative safety of different ways
of travel. it may be noted, that as
compare with 3lS deaths OF pass
engers from railway ACCIDENTS in the
entire United States. there we're IN
the registration area, 1885 deaths
from street car accidents, l,29l from
automobile accidents and 2,237 from
accidents in connection with other We

were right or wrong; it was a ques-
tion of patriotism. He counseled Gen.
Huerta 20 renounce any fce!ings OF
personal prestige or power and thus
save Mexico from calamity.
General Diaz sal 10 his friends
that he would have telegraphed to
General Huerta himself only he had
thus far taken no direct step in MeXi-
can affairs since he left the country
aud would prefer TO convey his con
vict;ons through his friends.
