NEW YoRK.-Many interesting de-
~ tails regarding the work done by
the New York police department dur

annual report Of Police Commissioner
Bingham. The commissioner says
that there has been marked I'm.
provement In the efficiency Of the de-
partmeut during the year. According
to the statistics tabulated by the CON-
missioner. this was an exceedingly
careless and lawleSs town during the
~ months Of 1907.
The arrests for feionIes were twice
the number Of those In 1905. The
arrests made By the detective bureau
were several thousand greater than
those Of the preceding year, and al.
most three times those Of 1905. The
fines imposed by the courts were cor
respondingly greater. The pictures
added to the rogues' gallery were
twice those Of 1905, and treble the
number Of 1905. Twice as many per.
sons were reported missing in 1907
as In the preceding year. and a rela.

were found.

the ninth and tenth censuses. The cen.
sus to be taken in 1910 will be the FIRST
since the establishment of this porma.

The director. 8. N. d. North, who

tofore the enumeration has been taken
on June /. Mr.. North says that more
accurate statistics will be collected
by the proposed change Of date. This
change will have the effect, he thinks.
OF showing great gains in the popula,
ton OF the great cities like New York.
Boston and Philadelphia. He says that
the summer resorts begin to attract
