New Orleans and Chicago Rank Next
to New York in Land Area and Ho-
boken Has Distinction of the Small

tho Total Expenditures.

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE census

lation of over 10000, the cities covered
numbering ISL. OF these New York
he. the largest land area, 209,21S

Chicago with 1882 ranking next.
Hoboken, with S25 acres. had the
smallest area The total corporate ex-
penditures of the Isl cities for the tis-
cal year of 1904, exclusive OF payments
by one department of the city to an
other, were 1854, 100000, of which those

or three-tenths. The total expenditures
showed an increase of s27, 100000, or SIS
per cent. over 1908. The increase for a
single city, New York, during the two
years ending 1904, was $37,964,000, or
44.6 per cent total increase.
In the 151 cities, the amount spent
for permanent works, increased almost
per cent over 1903. Tho New York
has only twice the population of Chi
cago, it's current expenses are nearly
four times as great The next six
largest cities of the country together
expend less than New York, and tho
Philadelphia, the latter's running ex-
penses are slightly greater. OF the total
running expenses of the 151 cities. 61.7
per cent went for salaries and wages,
and 1873 for all other objects.
The total receipts $594,176.0O0, OF

were from taxes and other revenues,

and increasing Indebtedness. Receipts
and water works, and other CONNER
cial revenues, amounted to $112,2S7. 900.
OF the municipal industries, by far the
most important are the waterworks.
They are reported by 10S of the 151
cities, and their value constitutes g. 8
per cent of the aggregate value of all
municipal industry properties. Four
cities are shown to be in irregulation
business; three had bridges toll, two
operating municipal ferries, one is run
ming a stone quarry and crusher, and
one having a municipal asphalt plant.
The aggregate value Of the properties
of all the municipal industries as here
reported, was s790.571 900. The aggre-
gate debt Of the 151 cities at the close
Of the year, was 1881, ,463,OOO. The
debt less the sinking funds is $1,22S,-
217,0O0, more than one fourth greater
than the national debt. The per capita
debt less the sinking funds, was
$56.97.

PLANS A cHILD,s CHURCH.
Kansas City Pastor Proposes New and
Novel Idea.

Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. IA church
for children, with children constitut-
ing the official board, child organst,
children as officers, deacons, ushers,
and congregation, is the plan of Rev.
Harry A. King, pastor of the Oakley
Methodist Episcopal church. The Rev.
Mr.. King would have the children
church organization as perfect as in
any congregation, following the forms
and discipline laid down by the general
conference for the churches formed by
adults.
The. Rev. Mr.. King said he hoped to
have his plans so far matured by the
time the public schools reopened this
fall that he could start the new church
He said services would be held weekly,
probably Sunday afternoon.
The details of the project he has not
yet worked out The new plan will not
supplant the Sunday school or interfere
with it in any manner. He believes
the project will attract the children of
the neighborhood. There is a large
minor population there.
In the Rev. Mr. Kings monthly chill
dren sermon, preached at the Oakley
Methodist Episcopal church yesterday,
his text was THE Two Fishes" from
the story of Christ feeding the $4,000
with the five loaves and two fishes,
taken from a child's basket. Following
the sermon each of the children was
given a candy fish as a reminder of the
sermon.

ming, under circumstances that point
to suicide. Physicia S who attended
him attribute his death to morphine
poisoning. Coroner F. M. Robinson is
investigating and may conclude to hold
an inquest, but so far says he has no

Huffmire became Ill yesterday morn.

worse and last night was taken to the
home Of a friend, where he died thii

a bottle Of Spanish Fly, poison used
as liniment and sometimes in the
preparation Of Knockout drops"
Some of this had been removed from
the bottle, but Huffmire claimed be

treating horse. There is no evidence
to show that Huffmire took the poison
with suicidal intent, and he purchased
no morphine at any of the local drug

knowledge of the looting of the bank.
The $4,000 depositors in the bank are
gradually losing hope of recovering the
$4,200,000 they entrusted to Stensland's S
care. Detectives are now seeking
Cashier Henry w. Herring, an alleged
enlbezzler, and they assert they have
information to the effect that HeriEs
left for Detroit Saturday night with;
Canada as an ultimate destination.
There was crowd of several hun
dred working people around the bank
this morning Their evident misery
was accentuated by drizzling rain.
The following message has been sent
broadcast over the country by the
police: Arrest for embezzlement

waukee Avenue State Bank. 40 to 40
years old; 8 feet 2 inches tall; 275

The superior court today appointed
John G. Fetzer receiver for the closed

mismanagement by the officials. The
{ rumor that Theodore Stensland, son of
the president of the bank, had also dis
appeared, grew today out of his failure
to keep an appointment with the Of
ficials of the police department. and
