POSTAL SAVINGS
BANK REAL SOON
FEW WILL BE ESTABLISHED IN
SMALLER PLACES AS AN
EXPERIMENT.

BEVERLY, Mass, Aug. 9.-Post
master General Hitchcock made pre-
Iimtrary report to President Taft to
day regarding the plans for the in
stitution of postal savings banks in
different parts of the country in the
near future. The experimental banks
will be located in the smaller cities,
as sufficient money to establish the
system In cities like New York, Chica-
go, Philadelphia, Boston and other
great centers of population is not
available yet There is also desire
to perfect the system through expert
ments In the smaller communities be-
fore an attempt is made to open up
the metropolitan branches. 1t is hop
ed that the experimental banks may
be in operation by October Is. Mr..
Hitchcock left tonight for New York,
where he is to consult with some of
the postal bank officials, and will re-
turin to Beverly Friday. There is a
likelihood that Secretary of the Treas
ury MacVeigh, who is also one of the
trustees of the postal banks, viii be
here at the same time.
The exact number of the expert
mental banks to be opened has not
been decided They will be distrib-
uted in different sections of the coun-
try.
Mr. Hitchcock and the President, |
it is said, also talked generally of the
political situation.
II am not the least bit pessimistic /
over the outlook from Republican
point of view," said Mr. Hitchcock
after his interview with the President.
The situation is improving all along
he line. On my return from Europe
found many letters awaiting me and
elling of the improved conditions, es-
,ecially in the West. The President
s growing stronger every day. The
magnificent record Of legislation he
made during the last Congress is grad
ALLY dawnine on the people and is
making itself felt everywhere" |.

AS the train was about to take one
of the many switches in the yards the

switches was unlocked. He slapped on
the brakes and the jar threw several

BROOKLYN CENSUS
IS l,634,35E n. Y.
FIGURES TONIGHT
Greater City Easily Second
Largest Municipality of
World, Close to London.

WASHINGTON, Sept. Following
its announcement of the population of
Brooklyn as 1,634,35 gain of 401 per
cent, at L O'Clock today, the census
bureau will tonight make a statement
of the population of Greater New York,
as developed by the recent census. No
intimation as to the exact figures has
been given out, but 1t is known that
the census bureau has prepared an es-
innate of growth, based upon the in
crease shown between 1900 and 1905,
which was something over 32 per cent,
by which the present population would
be over four and a half millions-in
exact figures, 4.563,604.
A gain of anything like 32 per cent.
for sucn a centre of population will
be almost marvellous and the result will
be not oniy to establish New York's
position as the second city of the
world, but to cause it to almost ap-
proach rivalry with London. In 1901
the population of London was 6,5s1, ,372.
1t is estimated that it now exceeds
seven and a half million.
London Still Largest.
Thus the British metropolis still sur
passes the American by about two
million people. Rightly, however, Jer-
sey City, Hoboken and Bayonne, N. j.,
are all parts of, New York city, as are
Yonkers and Noun Vernon, N Y. The
combined population of those cities is
almost half a million, and added to the
estimated total of the city proper would
bring the grand aggregate up to more
than five million.
If New York should exceed the 80
per cent. gain estimated, it would ex-
ceed, by more than 6 per cent, the aver
age 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 1906 of 2,763, 1893, and Ber-
lin follows with 2,04014S.
Brooklyn's increase since 1900 has
been 467,769.
Yonlxers's Gain 06.5 Per Cent.
The population of Yankers, NJ Y, is
79,S03, an increase of 31,S72, or 66.5 per
cent, as compared with 47,931 in 1900.
Elmira Growing Slowly.
The population of Yonkers, N. Y, is
