SOME CENSUS CURIOSITIES

The census bureau has issued
bulletin on statistics for 1904 of cities
having a population of more than 3d.
600, the cities covered numberign
151. OF these New York held the
largest land area. 2O9,21S acres: New
Orleans, with 125,6OO acres, and Chi
cago, with 114.932, ranking next. Ho-
boken, with S25 acres, had the small
est land area.
The total corporate expenditures of
the 151 cities for the fiscal year 1904
were $554,44O,215, o; which those of
New York constituted S167,O6O,171,
or three-tenths.
Though New York has only twice
the population of Chicago. its current
expenses are nearly four times as
great.
The next six largest cities of the
country together expended less than
New York. Though Chicago is one
third as large as Philadelphia, the
latter's running expenses are slightly
greater. Though about equal in size
with Baltimore. Boston's current ex-
penses are nearly three times as great.
Washington spends more than any of
the next eight largest cities of the
country, and twice that of other cities
of about the same population. Only
one-half of its expenditures are met
by local taxation. the other half being
paid by the United States government.
OF the total running expenses of
the Isl cities. 61.7 per cent went for
salaries and wages. and 1873 for all
other objects.
OF the municipal industries, by far
the most important are the water
works. They are represented by los
of the ISL cities, with over 10000
population, and their value consti-
tutes 63.6 per cent of the aggregate
value of all municipal industries as
reported.
The cities of over 100000 popula-
ton not owning water works were
San Francisco, Denver, New Orleans.
New Haven, Omaha, st. Joseph,
Scranton, and Paterson.
Four cities were shown to be in
the irrigation business-Denver, Los
Angeles, Salt Lake City and San An
tonic. Three had toll bridges-New
York, Covington and La Crosse, and
two were operating municipal ferries
Boston and Portland, ore. The
only city running a stone quarry and
crusher was Auburn, n. Y, and the
only one having municipal asphalt
plant was Detroit.
