Accidents Killed 111,OOO
In 1886, An ALL Time Peak
Cost to Americans Put at &c. 100000 900; About 100000
Permanently and 100000 90 Temporarily Disabled;
$4,000 Auto D eaths Is Rise

Chicago, Feb. 1O-The National
Safety Council said today that acct
Dents sucked along in the wake of a
nation rising from the depths of de-
preston, killed III, 900 persons in 1896
and est Americans about SO, $50 000,-
0OO Both figures are all-time high
totals.
Tornadoes, floods, excessive heat,
increased employment and a sharp
jump in motor vehicle travel were in
dicted for the increase which WHIPPED
out the previous record of 1O1, 139 set
in 1884.
In addition to deaths, the council
said, about 100000 were permanently
disabled by accidents last year and
100000 temporarily disabled.
The country's bill for recklessly
and carelessly stumbling it's toe" was
broken down into $3.50, 100000 in
wage loss and medical expense, $780,
100000 for property damage resulting
from motor vehicle accidents and
1920, 100000 for fire loss
While accident totals increased in
every phase of human activity, the
council pointed out that the increased
totals were accompanied by even lar
ger jumps in exposure" to accidents,
leaving solid ground for belief that
when the country once more is de-
fiintely on the high road of prosperity
with employment and automobile
travel at fairly constant levels, the
accident totals will shrink rapidly in
the face of intelligent safety work."
Rise in all Fields.
Home accidents: Deaths in 1896
were "a per cent more than in 1886
$4,000 against 31,5OO. For the first
time in eight years there were more
home accident fatalities than motor
vehicle deaths.
Occupational accidents: Deaths UP
8 per cent to $4,000 from $500 in
1885. The Council commented that the
increase was smaller than in general
employment which exposed additional
millions to the hazards of machinery,
tools and other implements of gainful
employment in factory, on farms, in
offices and elsewhere.
Miscellaneous purclic accidents (not
involving motor vehicles) Deaths up
6 per cent from 1900 in 1895 to 10000.
These accidents were caused by such
things as firearms, drownings, poison
ings, asphyxiations and accidents in
volving media of transportation other
than motor vehicle where the injured
or killed was not an employee of the
transportation company.
Motor vehicle accidents: Deaths up
four per cent to $500 from $1,000 in
1885. However, exposure" to traffic
accidents was tremendously greater
in 1896. Registration figures show
%, 270,00O vehicles travelled the streets
and highways last year, more than in
any previous year. And they Travelled
225, 200, 100000 miles, $4,000, 900
more than in 1885.
Heat prostration caused by Excess
sive heat last July and August con-
tributed $500 to the total of $4,000
