Note: The dead bodies of \n\ps were orijiinally conutcd in August. These together with tlie 

 accessions through starvation were recouiitiMl in October, the earlier counts bdiug dcduitid to 

 determine the number starved. As the period of starvation was not yet completed, a count of those 

 plainly dying was made, and these are designated as " starving."
