TSETSE'S SLEEPING PREY
Gives No Hope of Recovery, but
Mother Still Has Faith.

DR. Louis Livingston Seaman. retired
surgeon major Of the United States
Army. and an authority on Oriental
diseases, yesterday examined DR., Al
bert c. Perveil, who Is dying Of sleep
ing sickness at his home, IL Hancock
Street. Brooklyn.
Although refusing 20 say anything
that might chatter tho hopes Of tho
mans optimistic mother. DR.. Seaman
shrugged his shoulders and shook his
head when asked II the stricken man
had chance for life.
Sleeping sickness Is one Of the
most terrible maladies that can affflict
mankind" he remarked as he left.
There appeared to be little change
IN the condition Of DR.. Perveil yester-
day. He is still conscious. still con-
stantly drowsy. still hoered over by
his devoted old mother.
The story Of the woman's brave fight
for the lie of her only son has
aroused much sympathy In Brooklyn.
Two trained nurses from one OF the
hospitals appeared yesterday TO take
DER the burden of actual nursing. They
laughed at the question of pay. telling
her the work WAS entirely oluntary.

23.32l Persons Injured IN
Highway Accidents in
New York City.
SUMMER is MOST
DANGEROUS SEASON
Police Report for 1915 First
Complete Record-AutO Ranks
Highest In Fatalities.

In 1918 there werc 22.540 street ac-
cidents, In which 600 persons were
killed and 23.32l injured, according to
the frs. complete report of street acci-
dent statistics ever issued BY the 70
lice Department. The report covers
cvcrv street accident In which any per-
son was killed or injured, whether by
n vehicle or otherwise. There arc nine
teen kinds of accidents In the classif'-
cation, ranging from persons struck by
railway trains, trolley cars. automo-
biles and other vehicles to persons hit
by falling objects. bitten BY dogs or
slipping on the sidewalks.
Commissioner Arthur Woods points
out that street accidents arc fairy
accurate barometer Of weather condl-
tion. In that they drop during the
stormy winter months and rise with
the coming OF the warmer season. whsn
more persons use the highways Feb
ruarv. coolest and darkest Of months,

succeeding month the accidents In
creased. reaching high tide In July
The number dropped 10 per cent IN
Aueust, because, according 10 the re
port, a part OF tho city's population
was away on vacation. With Septem-
Der they returned and the accidents
increased, but did not quite reach the
July mark.
Commissioner Woods estimates that,
despite increasing protection offered
by the Police Department through the
DEVELOPMENT of its system Of control,
this spring will see Characteristic
increase IN the number Of accidents as
,ontrasted with the winter months. The
reasons are growth Of population and
the resulting street congestion. AS

is anxious for Mr.. Straus to resign on
February l and accept an immediate
appointment to tho place made vacant

Straus feels that his age should pre-
clude him from serving more than tho
unexpired term OF Edward VI. Mccall,
which has two years 20 go.
Representative William 8. Bennett

pected that Democrat will get one
