NOT GOOD COUNTERS.
The Police Census Away Behind
the EnUmera tors

The citizens census committee has
now reached the stage where it is
confronted with financial problems, and
II the work of the committee is to go
on the general public must come for
ward with contributions. The expense
OF carrying on the work of the COM
mlttee has not been great, and it will
be small from this time on, and it is
not necessary that the contributions
be large. But the committee must have
money and the larger the subscriptions
the better. Up to date an expense of
about $500 has been incurred and the
total expense of the work will probably
be covered by $500. Still it is a ques-
ton with the committee where to get
the $500, but it is believed that when
the true situation is known and the
citizens know that this committee has
carried on such an important work at
such slight expense, that they will
readily come forward and make up
the entire amount. Only about $100
has been raised up to date.
The committee considered the finan-
cial questions at meeting held yes
terday afternoon. 1t has been some
time since any meeting was held and
a number of the aldermen, as we'll as
Mayor Pratt, were present yesterday
afternoon. G. S. Cairns, chairman of
the citizens committee. made some
opening remarks regarding the work
being carried on by the committee,
speaking more particularly of the po-
lice census. This, he said had been
practically completed, and the different
enumerators had been mostly supplied
with the work of the policemen. They
had to get S. each for checking I'D.
The police census was light, and the
COMMITTEES has discovered that the
enumerators for the state are many
thousands of names ahead of the DO
lice. Still the police census is I'M
doubtedly the best piece of work the
committee has undertaken. In every
case that has been heard from, and,
some of the enumerators have alre adv
checked up the police census, the DO
lice found some names that the regular,
enumeratorS missed, although the regu-.
lars were way ahead as a rule. The,
police work is considered satisfactory.
however, and the best that could be
secured from a body of men working
so independently as were the police
men. The Fifth ward showed up re-
markedly light on the police tabs and
the committee are at loss to underr,
stand it. The Ninth ward showed up1
heavy, however, and many of the other
wards are all right but the grand
total of the police census will be many
thousands below that of the regular
enumeratorS.

BRYAN AT LEXINGTON.
Masses for Silver, Capitalists for
4 Gold, He SAYS.

LEXINGTON, July 5.-Ex-Congress-
man Bryan commanded the closest at
tention of large audience here tonight
IN arguing for bimetallism. He said
ymonometallists discuss the difficulty in
maintaining the parity between the
two metals, while bimetallists are more
anxious to maintain the parity be-
tween the dollar and all other property.
He quoted from Sherman, Blaine and
carlisle in claiming to show that the
destruction of silver as money. and the
adoption of the universal gold standard
would Increase the purchasing power
OF the dollar and bring great embar-
rassment to society in general while
1t would greatly benefit the capitalists.
He asserted that the masses favor BIZ
metallism. Tht capitalists favor a
gold standard as the most profitable
TO owners of money and credit. He de-
clared that change in the ratio Sc
cured by increasing the size of the
silver dollar would lessen the volume
OF money and make money dearer. He
quoted William G. Cornwall, president
Of the New York State Bankers as
ISOLATION, saying that International BIZ
metallism is a delusion and fraud. and
insisted that the United States should
at once secure the free and unlimited
coinage. of silver at 16 to /, because it
was possible for the United States to
do so and because there was no proba-
