first day Still II was far ahead OF any
year, except 1892, for five years past
1t fcll nearly ten thousand behind ls92
but the total for the two days is s,ill
ahead Of the last Presidential year.
The number is 2O2,7ig this year. against
202. ig7 in 1892
In Brooklyn the result Is similar.
While yesterdays registration fell a
