persons taken Into custody nro mon, and 30
por cent arc women. This proportion has
been maintained for many years, and va.

10 the last report Of the police commission.
ers, tho hrrysts for the quarter ending on
Jan. !, 1894, ehowcd 10, 507 native born
persons taken into custody. OF these 8, 400
were men, and g. l0i werc women. In
other words about 10 per cent Of those ar
rested wcru male and 30 per cent female.
Substantially the Same proportion between

great majority of the members OF the Rus
sian colony are Of American laws and

for tho most part pitiably poor Many of
them are In trades, such as peddllng, street
vending and shop work, which brings
them close 20 the border line Of police in

Nor DO the Italian women OF brunrtto

which might lead 10 their arrest. IN the
Same quarter i.ld4 malo Italians wero
taken into custody and only Al Italian
women The latter arc the mainstay OF
good order and proprioty IN .ho Italian
colony, and the official figures OF Tho polico
department attest this fact.
While tho disparity between tho two

OF law Is not as strongly marked among

among tho Russians and tho Italians, yet
II is sufficiently so to justify comment.
