WASHINGTON. D. C.. Oct. 26.—t Spe-

arrived at an era of low mortality."
This conclusion is stated in Census

tistics for 1908, prepared by Dr. Cressy

statistic? under Director Duiand who
has transmitted it to S?cr*tary Nagel

of these . tales was till lower, being
only If per l.ooo, while that of the ur-
ban population was It; . j. i 1.000; the
latter Including all cities having
lath of \00o , i more inhabitants in
100(1 and being, usual, somewhat
reat. r than the rural rate. Such rates
would have seemed quite out of the
question ,* few years ago.
The death rate of Kugland and Wales
has been 1< • than 16 per thousand
with the exception of the year 1!i04 for
which year ii was 1(1.2 per 1.000, while
no rate a.; low has been recorded for
air previous year of registration.

of which now make monthly reports.
The registration area or l races tlie
regis!ration states and separate reg-
istration cities in non-registration
states accepted by the Census Bureau
as having approximately complete r
gist ations of deaths based upon the
requirement of compulsory burial per
mits. For the year lUOs. the registra-
tion states were: California. Colorado.
Connecticut. Indiana, Maine. Maryland.
Massachusetts. Michigan. Xew Hamp-
shire, Ni w .1 ei" •• New York. IVnnsyl

The District of Columbia and seventv

tlon states, together with the registra-
tion states mentioned made up the ag-
gregate registration area for l!M)s.
whose total estimated population f r
the year was 4r ,02S,7«' 7 or over oik
half ,r i.s per «ent) of the total e ii-
mated population of the continental
United States, which was 8i;,s74.!)!)0.
The a ldltlon of Ohio for the year 1009
has still further increased the percent-
age of the population reporting to 2
per cent, and other areas may ! e includ
ed for the calendar \ear 1010. for
which direct comparisons of the liior
tality statistics can I" made with the
population enumerated by the Thirteen
th Census.
The total number of deaths returned
for the year 190s from the aggregate
registration area was tl'.M.r.TI For the
preceding year the number of deaths
was 687.0.'M. or only 410 less than the
190S returns, although the registration
area for 1!)0S was increased by Wash-
ington end Wisconsin. The year 100s
was one of remarkably low niortalit>
throughout the United States so far as
can be determined from the available
registration records and was marked
by a general absence of severe epidem-
ics and of unusual mortality from oth-
er causes.
Females contributed a slightly larg
that the range of mortality is not ex-
cessive.
With the exception of South Dakota,
all the registration states for which
data are presented for more than a
single year, show lower rates for 1908
than 1907, and In several instances the
rates for 1908 were the lowest in re-
cord. at least since fairly accurate re-
gistration has been in effect. For Mass-
achusetts a comparison of the rates
given in the state reports since 18,"il
shows that, with • e single exception
of the rate f 1 ♦ ..*;I in 1904, the rate
< 1 I ill 1908 is the lowest.
Then follow comparisons of the
death rates of the cities of the United
States with 100,000 population or over
in 1900. Of the tliirtv tl\< cities con-
sidered, a decreased death rate was
shown in 1908 in all but five instances.

but the actual num-
ber of ('oaths of males registered for
190s was less than for 1907. The per-
centage of males was and of fe
males *ir .7. The figures for age periods
show a somewhat increased per cent
of deaths of infants under 1 year for
190s but the ratios for each of the in-
dividual t .• rs from 1 to I are i 'entical
: m r.m; and lanv \ e'.a.-e agreement
appears in the subsequent five >ear-
pi riods. although th m'o was a sliglith
more favorable •. bowing for 190s for
the age periods from l" t« 19 years.
Nearlv one fifth of all the deaths that
occurred were those of infants under
one year of age and over one-fourth
are of childroy less than five years of
age.
For both 19a7 and 190v :.: per ceil
of all deaths were those of white per
so lis, which shows the unequal divis-
ion of the registration area in thi
sped. Maryland is the only registration
state with a considearlde proportion
12.1.6 per cent of colored population.
Nearly one-fourth of all deaths re-
gistered were those of persons born
outside of the United States. The states
having the largest proportion of na-
tive-born Americans of native stock,
are. Dr. Wilbur states, the ones in
which if is the most difficult to secure
the passage of effective registration
laws. Therefore, the actual mortality of
Americans of native parentage is not
fully represented in the registration
area, although over two-thirds of the
deaths registered were of native born
persons and one-third were of native
born with native parents.
it appears that the month of maxi-
mum mortality in 1908 was January
with 67 763 deaths and that of mini-
mum mortality was June with 49,701
deaths.
The death rates of the individual re-
gistration states vary for the year 1908
from 18.4 for California to 10.1 for
South Dakota. Dr. Wilbur points out

DAVIS, Ok. Oct. 2v Special—
That Albert Smith, whose headless
body was found in the Washita river
near here last Saturday came to his
death as the result of wounds inflicted
with a double-edged ax iu the hands
of Charles C. Smith, his cousin, was
the verdict of the coi mer's jury which
ended its investigation of the affair
today. The report charges ;r.at there
was a conspiracy between Charles
Smith and Nancy Smith, his former
wife and the widow of his cousin,
and declares that she is equally guilty.
Charles and Nancy Smith have been
held to await action of the grand jury.
The Smiths came here two months. penses are paid,

Smith and his wife are said to have
had frequent quarrels on account of
Charles Smith from whom the woman
was dovoreed before she became the
wife of Albert Smith.
