Some Interesting Statistics.

DR.. Edward Young, Of Philadelphia, Chief of
the United States Bureau of Statistics, furnishes
some interesting and astonishing figures showing
what we annually pay in this city for intoxicat-
ing liquors. DR.. Young is especially qualified
to speak on the matter, not only from the facili-
ties afforded by his position in the Treasury De-
partment, but because he has been an earnest
advocate OF temperance for more than forty years,
and was the only American who declined to take
wine at the tables of the Emperor and other
members of the imperial family of Russia, and
of the princes and mobiles of that country. The
figures submitted by DR.. Young show the follow
ing fact and estimates in regard to the direct Pc
cuniary cost of the spirituous, yinous, and fer
mented liquors which were used in the United
States during the fiscal year 1875:
90, 1000 gals Of whisky, retailed at So per GAL. 1915, 100000
9,l59,676 barrels Of fermented liquor lin fiscal year
1850 retaied at so per Dbl. -..........-.... 1S3, 100000
100000 gallons of imported brandy retailed at
$40 per lI,Uoo,OoO
6, 100000 gallons Of imported wines, reiailed al
30 PEI SSVVOiVOO
Domestic wines, brandy, etc, estimated at.....- 3O,OUO,UOO
Estimated cost at retail $635 100000
As q proof that this amount is not, to a great
extent, an ~oyerestimate, it may be stated that
there are l60 900 dealers (of whom 1919 are
in Pennsylyania) who pay $25 each to the Uni
ted States government for a license to sell liquors
at retail. IF these sell on an average but 81, 900
each, the aggregate is S640 900 900, almost ex-
actly the sum above named. These I60 900 deal
ers, however, do not include 5,040 wholesale
liquor dealers, nor 696 wholesale and 7,7ll re-
tail dealers in malt liquors.
