Railroad BujIdinu.

Statistics just gathered by the Rail-
way Age show hat there are 46G, 500
miles of railroad in the world, OF
enough to go around the earth nineteen
times. The United States has lSG, 900
miles, or considerably over one-third of
the total mileage. Germany comes sec
ond, with 80, 776 miles. Then Russia.
with 26.490 miles; France, with 25,S91
miles; British India, with 1880 miles;
Austria, q sos miles: Great Britain and
Ireland, with q. 52S miles.
All of Europe has only 1G7, 500 miles.
or less than the United States. The to-
tai increase of railroad lines last year
was only 1880 miles. Great Britain and
Ireland have seventeen miles of rail-
way to each 100 square miles of terri
tory, while the United States has only
six miles. But the United States has
2,645 miles per 1000, 900 inhabitants,
while Germany has only 563 miles, and
Japan only siXty-eight miles. 1t will be
seen, therefore. hat there is still plenty
of room for railroad expansion. and
railroad building will continue for
many years to come.

HOW FINAL COUNT IS MADE
Census Director Merriam Explains Why In
formation Already Asked for by Anxious
Inquirers Can Not Be Furnished
At This Time.

Director of Census Merriam gave out
the following statement for the infor-
nation of the public:
THE census office is now in receipt of
many letters daily asking for informa-
ton as to the result of the census in
particular localities, especially in the
larger cities. 1t does not appear to oc-
cur to the writer's that the census has
yet been taken. The law allows I'M
til June Is in cities of 5000 inhabitants,
and in rural districts until the LIST of
July for its completion; and after that
the schedules have to be examined by
the supervisors of the census before
they can be forwarded to Washington,
in order that the supervisors may de-
termine whether the work has been sat
isfactorily done and may be in position
to certify to the correctness of the
enumerators' accounts for service rem
dered under the law.
I'm order to appease the Impotence
of the public, the following statement
has been prepared, showing what has
to be done with the census returns
when received at Washington, and why
it must be weeks or even months before
tn figures can be given out in their en-
tirety.

GRAFTON, therefore, Santa Fe had the
