STATISTICS OF CRIME IN THE STATE AND Cry
Of New YoRK.-A report Las just be n issued
from the Office Of the Secretary Of State on the
criminal statistics of New York. 1t is compiled
from the returns of County Clerks and Steritfs,
made pursuant to Gan act respecting convictions
ia criminal courts, and to procure statistical in
formation concerning coavicts," passed April
26, 1889.
During the year 1858 the total number of con-
victions in the State is recorded to be l,712; of
which New York city claims the large proper
ton of GA, or more than one-third OF the whole
OF the convictions in the whole State; III are for
murder, not one of which was of female, and
for assaultss.and battery 259, of which only IL
were Of females; of the entire LIP convictions,
there are only 100 of females. The convictions for
intox cation we're only 21. The number of conyic-
lions in the whole State in 1857 were 1854, show
ing large increase in 1858, owing no doubt,
in great paIt, to the energy of Judge Russell,
who Inspires wholesome terror into The hearts
of criminals. In all the counties of the State
with tn exception Of Cortland, Hamilton,
Oneida, Putnam, Richmond, Schuyler and Yates,
which are not reported), the number of persons
tried on indictments were 1869, and of these
SEQ were convicted and 1858 were acquitted, and
the large number of $40 were convicted on con-
fession, while 800 were discharged without trial,
and in the case of 20 the jury did not agree. For
New York city there were 367 indictments tried,
PAL were convicted, l26 acquitted, 493 convicted
on confession, and sc were discharged without
trial. OF the occupations the following were the
