A CENSUS OF MANUFACTURES.
Plans to Ensure Rapid TabuIation
of Industrial Statistics.

The following is an Official statement OF
the plans of the Census Office with refer
ence to the industrial census;
The Census act provides that the sta
tistics of manufactures may be collected
by enumerators or by special agents, at
the discretion of the Director. He may
designate certain cities towns. or other
manufacturing centres in which the manu-
featuring schedule shall be withheld from
the enumerators and placed in the hands
of special agents. list Of such cities
and towns has been prepared, numbering
in the aggregate over coo, and a careful
estimate shows that all OF the manufacture
ing establishments included in the locali-
ties 10 be withdrawn from the enumerators
can be visited and returns from them Sc
cured within the brief space OF thirty
days by the employment of 1000 special
agents, who will be paid by the day. The
compensation which it is proposed TO allow
them is 81 per day, except in special cases
but ii can in no instance exceed Sc.
In the collection of manufacturing sta
tistics the Director proposes to utilize as
far as possible the organization created for
the general enumeration by placing the
supervisor of census of the proper district
in charge by grouping the localities with
drawn, and by employing the best of the
enumerators for an additional month as
special agents.
IT win thus be seen that the opportu-
mites for the employment of men not en-
ployed as enumerators will be limited. and
that the amount to be earned by the spe-
cial agents is not large.
The reasons for adopting the system here
outlined are TWO, economy in expenditures
and the desire to meet the wish Of Congress
for a quick Census

Halt in Proceedings.
Counsel for the contestants announced
that they had no other witness present
and the chairman called on Mr.. Faulkner
to put on his first witness. Mr.. Faulkner
protested against having TO do so, as he
had not conferred with any of his wit
nesses ard as they had all been subpoc-
naed for February by an understand
ing with The subcommittee. Senator CAT
ferry said Mr.. Bickford and Charles W.
Clark were in the city and might be eX-
amined at once as witnesses for Senator
Clark The chairman said he had fixed
when witnesses for the defence would be
compelled to be present, but that did not
preclude the examination OF witnesses who
were in the city.
Mr. Faulkner said he was not prepared
to put on any witness, and it would be an
outrage TO require him TO do so, as the
other side had not finished its case. and
he had not analysed the testimony already
in. Senator Caffery said there was no
ground for the statement that his sus-
gestion was in the slightest degree unfair
1t was unfair to prolong the examination,
when witnesses could be examined with
out detriment TO anybody Mr.. Faulkner
said that he might be ready in few days
10 put on any witness that was accessible
but he thought that the prosecution should
be made TO close its case before he was
compelled to open. He thought 1t unfair
to Senator Clark that his attorney should
not have the privilege of preparing his
defence. As 1t was he tMr. Faulkner) had
not had time to analyze the testimony
already in. He offered TO go TO work and
study the testimony and be ready TO pro-
coed on Monday
The committee then adjourned until

jurisdiction of the courts and the influence
OF certain transactions upon the financial

to show that the drift of the testimony for
the defence was 10 establish justification

toes than usual. and not so many
dragon flies, fact OF particular inter-
est in view of what has lately been
printed in the newspapers about the
dragon flies keeping down the mos
quitoes by feeding on them. had
often wondered what could bring drag
on flies into this district. I couldn't
see what attraction there could be to
them in solidly built-up blocks Of
brick and stone, but l imagine now
that when seen in these streets they
we're simply in transit, going to and
tro between Riverside park and Gen.
tral park, after mosquitoes in those
two localities. This year, l imagine,
more Of the dragon flies are staying in
Jersey killing mosquitoes there, and
this gives the mosquitoes a little more
chance here"

supposed to belong only TO the Gagged

must be Of interest to the naturalist,
perhaps the Spectator would not think
its narrative unworthy Of its pages. A
