reau Thursday issued a bulletin which
gives the estimated population of the

ka and the insular possessions of the
United States, at 79,9OO,3S9 This is an
increase of 1905, 814 since the census of
1900. The population is estimated for
43S cities having 10000 or more inhabit-
ants in 1900. According to these esti-
mates New York is now a city of 3,716,-
1879 inhabitants; Chicago is rapidly ap-
preaching the two-milliOn mark, hav-
ing 1,S73,8S0 inhabitants; Philadelphia
has 1857 ,716; St. Louis has just passed
and Boston has almost reached the $780,
900 mark; Baltimore has 531 ,313; Cleve-
land is now a considerable distance
ahead Of Cincinnati, which cities have
414,95O and 332, 1874 respectively Buff
