SIX CENSUS DISTRICTS UNHEARD FROM

SYSTEM OF CLOSED HOUSE CARDS PROVED
HELPFUL IN THE ENUMERATION
The work of the enumerators who have been TAX
ing the census in New-York County is practically
mpleted, there being only six of the eleven hun
dred districts yet be reported on.
The system Of "closed house" cards, which was
used for the first time this year. has been a very
great assistance in securing a complete and correct
enumeration. When enumerator finds a house
closed in his district he reports the same at the
office. and blanks mailed to the address given,
with the request that they he filled out and re-
turned promptly to the Office.
Mr. Wilbur says that many thousands Of names
have been secured In this way. In one district
alone IN Fifth-ave. there seventy-two closed
houses and the secured by the card method
numbered nine hundred. Twenty-Five clerks
busy adding the names thus secured to
the books Of the enumerators, and Il IS expected
that the work will be completed and all books
shipped to Washington by the end of the week.
