TIAL REPORTS. AT OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
OF DEMOCRATIC POLITICIANS.
There still remain "A of the 557 election DIS
trcts of the city where enmerators have not
completed their work. Enough is known, however, to
render il certain that population OF the city will not
exceed 100000, and may not run innch apo'e i,ioV
600 As heretofore stated in The Tribune, the lower
wards have remained almost stationary and, III te case
OF the Second and Third, may show shsht
