DIRECTOR MERR1AM's REPORT.
Work of the Census Bureau Described
in Detail.

William r. Merriam has submitted his re-
port as director Of the census to the Secre-
tary of the Interior.
Some space is given up to reviewing the
organization of the bureau for the actual
taking of the census and the reorganiZa-
ton of that force into a permanent Office
both of which features were fully reported
In earlier issues of The Star Other fea-
lures of the report of general interest fol-
low:
1.-The total number Of different bulletins
issued by the census Office was go, repre-
senting in all 1910 O89 bulletins. One mono
graph on popula ton. consisting of $4,000
copies and ten volumes of census reports,
aggregat ting 1O4 600 copies, were issued
1.-The office has already begun the colec-
ton of the data required for the reports on
the deaf, dumb and blind; on wealth, debt
and taxation; on mines and mining; on
transportation by water and express bust
ness, and on social statistics Of cities. Some
of this information will be obtained BIZ
schedules and letters of inquiry sent out
through the post office, but much of it re-
quires a certain amount Of field work
1.-THE census office dispensed with the
services of large number of clerks on
June 80. 1t was unavoidable, however, that
some clerks not to be permanently retained
should be carried into the reorganization
of the office following June 30, as the final
verifcation handling of hundreds of pages
of proof and shipments of tons of bound
reports, as we'll as the great amount of de-
tail incident to the close of such an enor-
nous undertaking, made impossible an alb
rupt transition from temporary to perma-
nent organization.
with the completion of most of the work
of this character reduction of the clerical
force was made on September 80 As the
work of the various divisions of the census
office In connection with the remaining in
quiries takes shape It is likely that econom-
ical organization VIII permit reductions of
the clerical force below the estimate upon
which the permanent organization of July
l was based"

Special DISPATCH to The Evening Star
NEW YORK, November 6.-London's
prices were generally higher this morning.
but the local market failed to reach the
same level, although prices were above
those of yesterday. The selling of some
1900 shares of various stocks by a pronli-
nent commission house was regarded as an
indication of a determination to break
prices in the interest of the short account.
The room sold freely for time and here
and there evidences of liquidation were re-
corded The western party sold freely at
one time making Nashville. Norfolk and
Western and Baltimore and Ohio look
heavy. The entire Gates party seem to
have determined to sell stocks as the re-
suit Of the vigorous discipline threatened
them had they persisted in booming Nor
folk and Western and other specialties.
If the banks wanted to arrest an advance
the western party saw an opening for maxi
ing turn on the short side, and with Gus
tomary promptness began to sell the mar
ket. The Keene party was also disconcert-
ed with the course of the money market.
and, somewhat chagrined with its inability
to realize on Reading before the compet-
tive buying ceased, has now turned toward
the short account.
Reading was weak today under vigorous
selling, and an attempt was made to keep
all the hard coal shares under pressure.
Erie was erratic. but seemed to attract a
good demand around the lowest level, and
several times sharp rallies We're recorded.
The Gould group was given some support
from the inside, prices rallying under a
mixed demand later in the day. Standard
Oil buyers were said to be in the market
for few specialties, notably ST Paul, and
this fact caused a moderate covering move
ment during the last hour
A cut In beet sugar rates to somcthing
more than 10 points under The American
Companys rates for Missouri river points
led to an attack on the stock of the latter
company. The steel shares were dull and
heavy and the entire Industrial list lacked
new business. Commission houses had a
moderate demand for a few low-priced
shares. but the market Il whole was
narrow and professional
The money rate ruled around per cent,
but the banks did not encourage loans to
any considerable extent. The sterling mar
ket reflected few changes from yesterday.
sufficiently near to warrant a further sell
ing of stocks on that prospect.
Earnings were mixed in character during
the day, the coal roads showing decreases
and western properties showing an active
and profitable business. Sentiment was a
trifie more cheerful than yesterday. but the
material for a higher market is still lack
ing

IN PALMA'S DESK
DRAFT OF TREATY is STILL AT
HAVANA.
Reconstruction Ascribed as the Rea-
son for Delay in Sending
the Document.

Contrary to the common understanding
here, it appears that the draft of the Cuban
reciprocity treaty has not yet left Havana
on its return to Washington, but instead is
now calmly reposing in a pigeonhole in tho
desk Of President Palma. The misunder-
standing as to the location of the treaty
arose from a statement to the Department
of State from Minister Squers at Havana
to the effect that he expected the treaty to
be dispatched to Washington the day fol-
lowing the sending of his message. How
ever 1t did not start then. nor has II yet.
Habits Of procrastinatton rather than any
disposition to actually refrain from enter
ing into treaty relations with the United
states are supposed to be the reason for the
delay.
Changes Wanted by Cubans.
In view of the fact that the treaty has
not yet come here. nor has Mr.. Squiers had
look at it, it follows that the United
States government is officially ignorant of
the nature Of the changes that the Cubans
desire to make in the convention. OF course,
generally these are known to be connected
with the increase of the rebate to be al
lowed on Cuban sugar and tobacco entering
the United States, and there are indications
that the administration may be willing to
yield slightly on that point If no unreason-
able delay is exhibited in the negotiations
on the part of the Cubans.
The rate of rebate proposed in the origi-
nal convention is 20 per cent, and it is gath
cred that the Cubans want 80 per cent. This
rate will hardly be allowed in view of the
belief that Congress would certainly not
sanction such a cut in duties, but between
these figures there is so wide a margin that
there is room for compromise on base
that might be acceptable to both sides.
Coaling Station Matter.
The coaling station matter is for the time
held in allegiance again The 1000 tons of
coal belonging to the United States navy
now lying in warehouse at Trscornia are be-
ing diminished according to the needs Of
the navy in gulf waters. SO that the Cuban
complaint of the existence of an American
naval station in Havana harbor Is adjusting
itself without friction, and, indeed. it Is
said that the mater has not been officially
mentioned lately.

OBJECTIONS FILED.
Citizens Complain Of Dumpage on 9Th

The Commissioners have recently received
a number of complaints against the dump

the ground near the end of the asphalt
pavement on 9th street northeast, Ecking-
ton. Health Officer Woodwad has recon-
mended to the Commissioners that the Pc

tions do not forbid the maintenance of
compost heaps in locations such as that in
which the compost heap in question Is To-
Gated that is, more than 300 feet from any

bred therein constitute material danger

sonable care avoid. they Will doubtless be
able, to secure relief through the grand
jury upon proper representation of the facts
to the district attorney, or through injunc-
ton procured through ordinary channels.

SPARRING IN THE ARMY.
It's Regulation Left to Each Post
Commander.


The War Department is reluctant to COM
nit itself upon the subject Of so-called
sparring exhibitions in the army. Some
time ago the commanding general Of the
Department of Missouri requested a de-
cision of the department upon the question
of the right Of an enlisted man in the army
to participate as a principal in an athletic
boxing contest In reply he was informed
by the assistant adjutant general that
There are some subjects as to which 1t is
impossible for the War Department to pre-
scribe a uniform rule, and that this is one
OF them. But apart from the strict law
In the case 1t is a matter Of common infor-
nation that local sentiment is divided in
respect to contests Of the kind described,
and this adds to the difficulty Of framing a
rule. were there no legal obstacles in the
way of it's preparation.
There being no legal power in the de-
partment to establish rule on the subject
the acting secretary of war decides that the
question presented be left where it is, to the
regulation of the post commander under
the supervision vested in departments COM
manders by the army regulations"
