men AND WOMEN
IN ALMSHOUSES
CENSUS REPORT SHOWS TWICE
AS MANY MALES.
FEMALES REMAIN PAuPERs
Once They Become Charges Upon the
Community They Continue to
Be Burdens Upon the Pub
lie Treasury.

Washington, July 11.-According to
o report issued by the census bureau
there were in the United States in
1904 163.176 persons in almshouses and
Of these 111,71S were males.
b Although the number of almshouse
paupers is increasing the increase has
not kept pace with the growth of
population, and consequently the ratio
Of alr1shouse paupers to population is
decreasing. In 1880 it was 1S2 per
100000 of population; It decreased to
lit in 1890 and to 101 In 1908.
While pauperism Is less prevalent
among females than among males, the
chief distinction between the two sexes
seems to be that females having once
entered an almshouse are there perma-
nently, while men are, to a large ex-
tent, only winter boarders.
Fewer Negro Paupers.
!, Negro paupers do not constitute SO
large a proportion of the almshouse
population as negroes form Of the
general population.
The foreign-born whites, whose eco
nomic position is not so high, show
a greater tendency towards pauperism
than the native whites Of native pa
rentage and native whites of foreign
parentage
Commenting on this fact, the report
says:
There is, however, no reason to
believe that many immigrants drift
into almshouses soon after their ar
rival in the United States, for only
two per cent. Of all the foreign born
in almshouses had been in this coun-
try less than five years.
National Tendency.
"Among the different nationalities
of foreign-born whites the degree Of
thrift, combined with racial charac-
teristics, seems to determine, in large
part, the tendency towards pauper-
ISM
OF the paupers. 4S per cent. had been
Iaborers and servants. 10 per cent. en-
gagged in manufacturing and mechan-
ical industries, and "a. per cent occu-
pied with agricultural, transportation
and other outdoor pursuits. More
than three-fourths of the female pau
pers had been servants.

CARELESS IN PAYING BILLS
Effort to Recover Large Sum Disbursed

of the Two Leading Polit-

New York, July 11.-Complaints
were served Tuesday in the suits
brought by the Mutual Life Insurance
company against Robert s. Grannis,
former vice president and trustee, and
Walter r. Gillette, former treasurer
and trustee of the company.
1t is alleged against Mr.. Grannis
that he omitted to scrutinize vouchers
which were submitted to him and neg.
ligently and carelessly approved many
vouchers which represented money
paid for services not authorized.
The damages suffered by the COM
pany because of these acts amounted.
it is believed. to 100000.
Campaign Contributions.
In another cause of action against
Mr.. Grannis it is charged that he par
ticipated in the making of payments
out of the assets of the company ag.
gregating the sum of $92, 800 to defray
the expenses of campaign contribu-
tions to political parties.
Altogether five causes of action
against Mr.. Grannis are set forth and
the total amount for which judgment
is asked against him is $s17.50O with
interest.
1t is alleged that the former vice
president participated in an arrange
ment by which money was taken out
of the assets of the company to es.
tablish a so-called confidential fund
which was expended for objects not
within the corporate purposes of the
company and beyond its lawful pow.

pose in sending these statements, is
to find out if you have received the
proper credit for what you have paid.
We somctices make mistakes but are
