Total. 178, 700 l, l90,050
These figures show gain in Baltimore OF
5,42l over the Federal returns and the coun-
ties show a loss of 16, 726. This was expected,
because it had been shown that the lists IN
number of counties had been padded and the
Federal census was fraudulent. The loss IN
Kent was 999, in St. Mary's 1,126, in Anne
Arundel 5,21S, in Charles LIZA, IN Prince
Georges 1893, in Montgomery l.3Ol and
Washington county 633. In these counties,
where the returns were suspected OF beng m
accurate, II, $50 of the loss of 16, 72G in popu-
lation, is accounted for. In the other coun-
ties, except Baltimore, where there IS a loss
of 2,T55, the State and Federal returns vary
but little. The State paid its enumerators
per diem, and the Government paid so much
name. This difference may have stimulated
some Federal enumerators to extra eXertion.
Want of knowledge of district lines could &C
count for variations also. In st. Mary
county, it appears, the Federal enumeraiors
did their work we'll, at first, but the population
was not large enough. then the Republican
politicians reported to the Census Bureau that
many persons were omitted, and new blanks
were sent to the enumerators, and the fraud
was committed upon the supplemental blanks,
deliberately and purposely, as confessed IN
court by Abelfs counsel last week.

taking advantage of the bright moonlight

THE STOCK MARKET.
Rapid Progress Made in Reestablishfng
Confidence.

New York, May 10.-Rapid progress
was made in establishing confidence
in Wall street to-day and there was
natural rebound in prices. The re-
bound was very natural after the extent
of the declines of yesterday, but the
range of the recovery was surprising.
Large progress was made toward WHIP
! ing out the net losses which remained
| last night after the recovery had al
ready set in on the exchange. In
number of stocks which were not acute
,ly affected yesterday to-day's prices
rose above Wednesdays closing lever
and in Missouri Pacific yesterdays net
loss was recovered with points 10
spare, the extreme advance reaching 10
points There was a good deal OF ire
pidation still evident this morning oW-
: ing to the vague dread that there might
be stock exchange houses which would
be unable to meet their obligations az
! ter yesterdays drastic experience. Inc
market was therefore unsettled and fe-
verish, even after the strong opening.
But when the official announcement
was made that the clearing sheets OF an
the members of the stock exchange had
4
ing house perfectly and that all their
checks had been honored, a feeling OF
relief was manifested and steadily grew
throughout the day. During the latter
part Of the day there was Tesump-
ton of what looked like speculative
movement for the rise led BY Union IA
cific. The buoyancy of this stock and
the accompanying strength OF the
1 southwesterns were based upon runlors
and assumptions of the benefits to ac-
crue to Union Pacific from change IN
control of Northern Pacific, which was
still stoutly claimed by the Union Pa
cifc party.
Undoubtedly there were very many
speculative losers in the collapse OF
Thursday who retained their nerve and
determination and who set about to re-
coup themselves by new speculation IN
the market. Other buyers We're those
who had gotten out early in yesterday 9
slump and who still saw profit In
getting back at the prices ruling to-
day. The bargain hunters were also on
hand in considerable force and there
were many cash transactions both In
bonds and stocks, representing their
purchases This outcome of affairs was
pretty well assured when the news was
learned this morning of the settlement
effected with the shorts In Northern Pa
cific on the basis of $3.50 per share. This
removed the overshadowing fear from
the market and the quotations fol
Northern Pacific on the tape at 100 still
further allayed the apprehension. The
stock so1d at 300 for cash afterward
