POPULATION OF
 NEW YORK STATE

Washington. November 23-New York city for the first time has become great CT in point of population than all the remainder of the state of New York out side the greater city limits. Statistics giving the population of the state as enumerated in the thirteenth census and made public today show that the people or the eountry's greatest city forms more than half of the inhabitants of the most populous state in the union.
 The population of the state Is 9113,27s This is an increase of 1,S44, 1885 or PA per cent over 7,26s,S ,S94 in 1900. The increase from 1890 to 1900 was 1,265,257 or 21.1 per cent
 Almost as remarkable fact is the rate of growth of the Empire state Since 1870 it has doubled in population and the rate of increase in the last ten years, 25.4 per cent, is the greatest since the decade between 1S40 and 1850 when the percentage of increase was 275. With this increase in population will come a larger representation in the lower branch of Congress where New York now has 37
 
 representatives will be 10 if the present ratio of apportionment is retained by Congress.
 Of the s,113,27s people in New York state. as shown by todays statistics, 4,766,sS3 are in New York city and 4.346, 39G in the state outside, making the city 420,4S7 the greater in population
 The drift of population from the agri- cultural districts to the cities was also clearly indicated in the census returns made public today.
 In New York 15 of the 61 counties show ed a decrease in population, while oth- CTS made only meager increases. Only the counties containing the larger cities made any considerable gains in popula- tion. The movement was more marked in Ohio than in New York for there 30 of the SS counties showed decreases, while in 2 other counties the increase was less than 2000 inhabitants.
 The population of the state of Ohio is 4,767,1 ,121 according to statistics of the thirteenth census made public by Director Durand today. This is an increase of eos, 47s or 147 per cent over 4,l57,545 in 19oO The increase from 1890 to 1900 was 4s5,229, or 132 per cent.
 The population of the state of Kansas is 1,690,949 according to the statistics of the thirteenth census made public today by Director Durand. This is an increa SC of 220, 454 of 15 per cent over 1,470, 495 in 1900 The increase during the previous decade from 1890 to 1900 was H,373 of 2.9 per cent

along the street was wet as they watched the few old women shaking hands with the veterans.
 A policeman noticed the congestion in the parade and hurried to find the cause He started to advance on the women to ask them to retire to the sidewalk and allow the parade to pass by unimpeded He realized what was going on, saw the tears in the old ladies' eyes, the eager and gallant grasp with which the old soldiers shook hands, he caught himself and turned away. And the handshaking went on, went on until they had grasped the hand of every one of the old soldiers who formed the line of march,
 The hundreds who saw the sight will never forget it. It will survive for the same reason that the emotions which prompted it had survived. It was the aged living in the past, the revival of sentiments that have ruled human hearts since time began, portrayal of a wom- ans part in the fate of nations and an example of the truth that the great bonds which bind human hearts will never sever

SPURIOUS DIPLOMAS
 OF COLLEGE FOUND

New York. November 23.-Grand jury proceedings today disclosed that 20 spu- rious diplomas of graduation, which pur- port to have been issued by the College Of the City of New York, have been ut tered and sold for about $50 each since last July. and 1t is thought they are in the hands of medical, dentistry and law students who needed them to present in lieu of regents certificates. The grand jury took the matter up today.
 A warrant was issued tonight for a. former assistant in the college registrars office, but detectives failed to find him at home. The method by which the al- legged fraud was perpetrated was ex- ceedingly simple. In the rush of office work at the college certificates were hurriedly thrust upon the registrars desk for signature and he unwittingly signed some blanks which were filled in and sold The certificates in question are not those of graduation, but are forms certifying that students have passed in the branches called for in the state re- gents examinations.
