u I Some men It takes more whiskey
to kill and one Bellevue patient has rcachedthe ale of fifty although
since he was seventeen he got drunk on the average of more than 150
days out of every year These Interesting facts have been compiled by
Julian Wlllard Helium for the American Magazine taking the records of

These statltlcs contradict the popular Impression that alcoholism
results almost entirely front excess in drinking higlyproof liquor whis
key gin brandy and rum More chronic alcoholics are produced by some
times drinking distilled liquors and sometimes fermented liquors Malt
liquors alone produce as many cases of tremens as whiskey The reason
fit for the popular misapprehension is that whiskey will bring on the tremens

J ff r B Ida T PROFITS ON DEATH I
1r Brooklyn Rapid Transit reported yesterday for the fiscal year which
1 ended June 30 an increase of 23 per cent bits net earnings
Under some circumstances this
might have indicated
a manage
ment and a service greatly improved Thai it does not indicate these
things the years passengers have had cause to realize The same old B
It T rolling stock is being run in the same old way with the same reck
t less disregard for the comfort and the lives and limbs of the public
f What the report does show on one count is the possible net profit
r to be mad on manslaughter
i It is calculated on the basis of the years killings that Brooklyn
Kapld Transit cars take Ont human life
one every thirty hours This repre
sent a boom in fatalities to match that shown in net earnings It is not
t diffkult to trace possible connections between the two kinds of increase
For one thing the operating expenses of the system have been re
duced in the fiscal year from 6002 per cent of the gross earnings the
JL fisyfor l9 ° l5 to 5652 per cent Prom the cheapandeasy fashion
j in whfch thesystem has been run for years as regards equipment the
Inference is tand the increase in fatalities justifies it
again that reo
ductions have been nude which interfere not only with Uu efficiency but
< with the safety of the service
Another point rests upon the Item of damage ults brought for kill
figs and malmings on roads of the B it T group
It was possible formerly for these suits to be brought to trial with
reasonable promptitude The company was then moved to stir for set
tlements out of court And it had costly inducemwUMo keep up a cer
lain measure of precaution against overspeedinr ianda int taking
chances with cars >
By changes In the calendar rules of the courts Brooklyn these
con
I Unions have been overthrown ammerckr litigation business
and con
tract suits take precedence now over damage cases These last may be
Staved off for years the plaintiffs perhaps Ored out There is no longer
the jessing necessity for B R T
agents to get to work on proposals 5
settlement over victims of the company cars or trains
If i > estimated that the new state of affairs means a savin of S75n
pop per year hi the legal department of the system Atrf tliis into
