Wicked Palm
Up to Boston,
Says Chicago

CHICAGO. Dec. 12.-The wickedest
large city in the United States is not
Chicago. It Is Boston. Hugo Grosser,
Chicago's retiring municipal statistician,
makes the claim IN his valedlctory re-
port, made public yesterday. The bulle-
tin is the result Of three days of strenu-
Gus figuring.
In Boston S3.7 persons out OF each 1000
of it's population were arrested for
various crimes in 1906, whereas the pro-
portion in Chicago was only AS. Not
only that. but during the present year
Boston has grown more wicked while
Chicago has improved morally more
than so per cent.
. The statistician also has discovered
that in Boston, where the saloons are
strictly regulated, there is twice as
much drunkenness as in Chicago.
Chicago is also the leading city for
honesty, and has achieved this enviable
reputation purely through the goodness
OF its citizens.
Chicago has only 17.6 policemen to every
square mile. whereas wicked Boston has
29.5; New York q. and Baltimore 30.
