HOUSES AND POPULATION.
Differences Between the Number of Inhab-
itants Of Cities and Their Dwellings.

Differences between the Number of Inhab-
itants of Cities aud Their Dwellings.
The ordinary way Of figuring the size of a
city is by computing the number of inhab-
itants IL contains. still another way Is 10
give the area IL covers and third Is TO
calculate the number Of houses which IL
| contains. Park Commissioner Woodruff
of Brooklyn, in recent speech 10 the
| Civitas club, pointed out the fact that
| Brooklyn contains within Its city bound
| aries 1880 houses. New York city,
with population 90 per cent greater than
Brooklyn's, has total of only 1l5, 900
buildings, of which 10000 are devoted
wholly or chiefly To dwelling purposes and
e5, 600 TO stores warehouses or institutions
of "A public character.
The number of houses In London Is
600, 900, extending over an area Of III
square miles. There arc 90, 900 houses I'm
Paris, a much smaller number than the
total in either New York or Brooklyn,
though the total population of the French
capital is $500, 600, against 100000 In
the city of New York. In respect Of the
number of houses which it contains New
York is far behind Philadelphia as well as
Brooklyn. The total number of buildings
In Philadelphia is a50, 900, of which 1885,
900 are dwelling houses, lending color to
the claim that "every man In Philadelphia
has his own house" IL is one Of the
boasts of the people Of Philadelphia that
l2O, 600 Philadelphians are the owners Of
land in that town, whereas fewer than
$4,000 persons In the city of New York
own real estate within il.
The number of houses In European cities
varies considerably. Vienna, for instance,
With population of /, 800, 900, has 200, 900
houses, whereas Berlin, with population
OF 1000, 900, has less than half as many.
AT the present time London, Paris, New
York, Berlin and Vienna are the five larg-
est cities in the world on the basis of pop
ulation as ascertained by formal census.
In respect 10 the number Of houses the or
der OF the five largest cities of the world
Is as follows: London, Philadelphia, VI
emma, Brooklyn and Constantinople. The
estimated population Of the greater New
York is about 5000, 600, which will exceed
largely the prospective population in 1897
of the city of Paris and put the greater
New York second TO London. New York

HOME FROM EUROPE.

Return of Principal George L. Fox
 Features of His Trip Abroad-Hop-
 kins Grammar School Reopening.
 Principal George l.. Fox of Hopkins Grammar school, who is also lecturer on municipal law at Yale arrived home yesterday from very pleasant and interesting trip to Europe, occupying two months and half. He was, of course, at the Henley races and says that though defeated the Yale crew made a most favorable impression everywhere they went He found ev- anywhere in England the best of feel ing toward the United States. He vis- tied Paris, Vienna, Glasgow and Buda Pesth, making a special study of the respective municipal governments of each of the cities He was at Bay reuth and attended two performances of Wagner's Ring of the Nibelungen. ]" The two he witnessed were Die Val kure' and Die Goetterdaemmerung, ;" Twilight of the Gods" He returned by the southern route through the Med iterranean, touching at Gibraltar, on the Kaiser Wilhelm which was eight days on the trip
 The 237th year of Hopkins begins Thursday, September "A. This famous American cchool has prepared more boys for Yale including Shelf, than any other schools. Andover excepted. Rec tor Fox will be at his home, No. ' College street, for consultation with parents each day from 9 to l2 o'clock from to-day until the. school reopens.

in struggle for the only means of safety"
 Coming, however, to the details of the case before him, the judge distin- guished as follows; The sailor must encounter the hardships and perils of the voyage Nor can this relation be changed when the ship is lost by tenn pest and all on board have betaken themselves for safety to the small boats; for imminence of danger cannot absolve from duty. Should the emer- geney become so extreme as to call for the sacrifice of life, there can be no reason why the law does not remain the same; the passenger, not belng bound either to labor or to incur the risk of life, cannot be bound to sacrifice his existence to preserve the sailors, While we admit that sailor and sailor may lawfully struggle with each other for the plank which can save but one, we think that if the passenger is on the plank even the law of necessity justi- fies not the sailor who takes 1t from him."
 The judge then proceeded to consider what should have been done under the stress of circumstances existing in the long boat. He admitted that there was no rule of general application, but con- tinued as follows: "There is, however, one condition of extremity for which all writers have prescribed the same rule When the ship is ih no danger of sinh ling, but all sustenance is exhausted, a sacrifice of one person is necessary to appease the hunger of others. The selection is made by lot This mode Is resorted to as the fairest mode, and in some sort as an appeal to God for the selection of the victim. For ourselves, sonant with both humanity and just i ice and the occasion, we think, must be peculiar which will dispense with its exercise"
 1 Under this charge the jury brought in verdict of guilty, With a recommenda- tion of mercy. Holmes was sentenced to six months in the penitentiary and 1 to pay a fine of twenty dollars. But i the interest of the public did not cease with this. Indignation vanished and sympathy doubled. People maintained i that, sailor or no sailor, Holmes had acted naturally There was a general
 demand for his liberation, and though
 President Tyler refused a pardon, part
 of the penalty was remitted. And so
 Holmes went back to the perils of the
 sea, which he held as naught in com
 parison with those of the land.-New | York Sun

Speculation in stocks Yesterday Was
 Mainly Weak in Tone.

SpeCuiAliOH III stOeks 1T esIeraay was
 Mainly Weak in Tone.
 New York, Sept. Speculation at the stock exchange during the early trading to-day was weak in tone. The traders were all working for lower prices on the theory that;a reaction was overdue, and they met With fair de- gree of success in certain parts of the list, notably Manhattan
 Weak cables from London proved of some assistance to the traders, and in the first half hour or so of business prices declined from A to 25s per cent Manhattan was freely sold and sus- tained the heaviest loss, falling to S01s, against SSB at the close on Saturday,
 The street was flooded with rumors that the directors at the meeting to be held later in the day would reduce the dividend because of the poor earnings for the quarter.
 Manhattan's weakness affected the entire list but the losses were general ly confined to the fractions. Around midday the official announcement was made that the directors of the Man haitian had declared the regular divi- dend of 11a per cent, payable october 1. No official statement was given out, but it was estimated that the company had a big surplus and that the man. agement fully expected the road to earn it's dividend for the year on ac- count of economies recently introduce
