CENSUS FIGURES MUST STAND-I

CENSUS FIGURES MUST STAND.-Di-
rector OF the Census Merriam last
night, 10 reply to a question, said il
would make no difference, as far as the
United states census figures were con-
cerned, whether the police reported
more people liviog in Baltimore than
the census enumerstors found or not,
rs their figures would have to be ac-
cepted. There have been complaints
from a number of cities that the count
was inaccurate and doubtless all OF
them would like to have a new count.
Mr.. Merriam holds that every precau-
ton possible was taken to make the
census correct, and while it is admitted
that an average of about per cent. OF
the people in every city escaped the
enumerators, this, it Is claimed, was
unavoidable.
