Electric Railway
Industry in State
Shows Big Growth
Washington, March 31. —Prelim-!
i inary figures of the forthcoming!
; quinquennial report on the electric(
{ railways of the State of Pennsyl- :
vania show substantial gains in the,
; electric railway industry in Pennsyl- ;
1 vania for both 5 year periods 1912-
1917 and 1907-1912. The number
• of operating companies was 119 in i
1917, 121 in 1912. and 122 in 1907. i
The mileage of track in the State'
, totaled 4.462 in 1917, as against!
, 4.270 in 1912 and 3.762 in 1907, the]
rates of increase being 4.5 per cent. 1
1 for the period 1912-1917 and 18.6 j
; per cent, for the decade. The com
( panics employed 28,357 persons in
191", a decrease of one-half of li
, per cent, for the period 1912-1917
1 but an increase of 15 per cent, fori
j the decade. The salaries and wages
paid to these employes aggregated!
$25,142,481. an increase of 25.9 per
1 cent, for the period 1912-1917 and of
59.8 per cent, for the decade. The'
number of revenue passengers car-j
; ried was 1.300,087.044, or 26.2 per j
• cent, more than in 1912 and 42.51
(per cent, more than in 1907. The I
I revenue car mileage amounted to]
j 204,627,827, an increase of 6.8 perj
I cent, for the 5 year period and 14.o!
per cent, for the decade. The in-j
c-rease in passengers carried was j
therefore much more rapid than in]
ear mileage.
Half of Deaths Among
American Soldiers in
England Due to Flu
By Associated Press.
London. March 31. —More than]
half tiie deaths among the American 1
soldiers in Great Britain were duel
to influenza. The total number of
cases of the disease in the three
months of the epidemic among the
Americans here reached 7,512. In
that period deaths from pneumonia, I
developing in most eases from jn- j.
fluenza, numbered 1,717. Of 6,0U0
troops brought on one trip by the
steamer Olympic, 2,000 contracted
the disease and, as about one-third
of these cases developed pneumonia,
the proportion of fatalities was very
large.
These figures are contained in an ,
elaborate report being prepared by ,
tiie American Red Cross covering the
work of the organization in Great
Britaiu up to the beginning of this j {
year.
