Census Of New York Tonight.
Following its announcement OF the pop
ulation of Brooklyn. the census bureau will
tonight make a statement of the popula-
ton Of Greater New York as developed by
the recent census. No intimation as to
the exact figures has been given out.
1t is known, however. that the census
bureau has prepared an estimate OF
growth, based upon the increase shown
between 1900 and 1906, which was some
thing over 80 per cent. The present pop
ulation would, by this computation, be
over four and q half million-in exact
figures 4.563, ,6O4.
a gain OF anything like 80 per cent for
marvellous. The result will be not only
to establish New Yorks position as the
second city Of the world, but to cause 1,
to almost approach rivalry with London
In 1901 the population Of London was
1851, ,372.. 1t is estimated that 1t now
exceeds 100000. Thus the British me-
tropolis still surpasses the American by
about 100000 people.
Suburbs Of Half Million.
Rightly, however. Jersey City. Hoboker
and Bayonne. N. J., are all parts OF New
York city, as are Yonkers and Mount
Vernon, N. Y. The combined population
Of these cities is almost half q million,
and added to the estimated total Of the
city proyer would bring the grand aggre-
gate up to more than five millions.
II New York should succeed in making
the 30 per cent gain estimated. 1t would
exceed. by more than per cent. the
average gain Of eleven cities of over two
hundred thousand people whose figures
have been compiled.
In any event no other city will ap-
proach the figures for New York. OF
the foreign capitals Paris comes next
with a total In 1905 Of 2, 763. .30S, and Ber-
lin follows with 2,OaO. 14S.

Checks Found Worthless.

When the wedding breakfast was over
he ordered the chauffeur to drive him to
the garage where he had hired the ma
chine. There he told the man in charge
that he wanted another machine and q
new chauffeur, as the man who had been
driving him was tired.
This request was readily granted, and
Frank gave the manager q check for $so
Later he presented the chauffeur with q
check for SIS. They had scarcely left
the garage when the suspicious OF the
manager were aroused and the checks
were taken to the bank for investigation.
1t was found that Frank was not de-
positor. The police were Immediately
notified and Detectives Pratt and Howiett
were sent to find Frank. Coming down
town, the soldier had stopped In Har
vey's long enough to cash another check.
and he and his bride were soon on their
way to the ball game.
The detectives obtained Information OF
their whereabouts, and the game had
hardly begun before Frank was on his
way to the station house and his wife TO
her home. She had been visiting her
brother In this city and is from Phila-
delphia- The police communicated with
the hospital authorities and were In
formed that Frank had been practically
declared sane. Capt. Boardman then an
nounced that he would hold the soldier
for the bad checks which had been Is
sued. The hospital authorities then de-
cided that they would send for Frank
and recommit him.

From there he telephoned Miss Strouse.

hours the couple started for Baltimore,
and arrived there in time for luncheon
and for the matinee. Frank proposed to
