Growth is In Small cities.

Washington.-Care though unof.
fetal analysis OF the returns from the
thirteenth census on cities thus far
announced, reveals that the increased
rate OF urban growth for the last dec
ade over that of 1890 to 1900 has been
confined largely to places having a
population of less than $4,000. While
universally there has been a healthy
increase in large majority of cities
exceeding $4,000, the rate of the pre-.
vlous decade has not been maintained.
In no instance so far has an actual
loss OF population been shown and
present comparisons are only on the
rate OF growth.
