and a half. The sociological and indus
announced as rule in special bulletins
prepared by the bureau itself.
| Up to date. population figures have
| been given on two states only. Rhode
| Island and Oklahoma, but many an
| rouncements have been made for cities.
towns and counties in various parts of
the country. All the returns so far given
Ito the public have been prepared to meet
the especial demands of the localities af-
| fected. In Rhode Island. for instance,
there is to be a reapportionment for leg
| islative purposes, and in Oklahoma the
| franchise is involved. Texas has state
laws. affecting county administration,
and has made a special demand upon the
bureau. There also have been some eX-
actions of a legal nature from various
cities in Illinois, as from some other
states. From this time forward, however.
these requests will receive comparatively
| little attention, and as a consequence the
regular work of the bureau will proceed
| more rapidly.
The directors intention is first to tab
ulate the population of the large cities,
and after the announcements for those
centers of population shall have been
made, the figures for the states will be
given out as they are ascertained. The
returns for all the counties of each state
will be announced as the same time that
the state figures are made public.
Many of the announcements are liable
to be delayed beyond the time when they
may be expected by the public. This de-
law. if it occurs, will be due to the me-
cessity for careful scrutiny of all the
schedules. All of the enumeration sheets
are counted from three to four times.
and if there is any error, or even If there
is any circumstance indicating a posi-
bility of an error. an investigation is or
dered, and If necessary a correction Is
made. In two cities evidence of fraud
has been discovered. and in one, Great
Falls. Mont, a prosecution has been I'M
dertaken for fraudulent enumeration In
Massachusetts all of the figures have
been withheld to accommodate the state
in some of it's own statistical work.
Contrary to the general opinion. all the
counting of the people is done by hand.
The tabulating machines. of which sew
eral hundred are employed in the office.
| are used only in classifications as to race.
sex and other conditions.
The census Office is a busy place. The
present force of clerks will be increased
eventually to about 1000. There are two
shifts of them. one working from 9 A. NJ
until 4.3O P. NJ. the other taking up the
work at the latter hour and going for
ward until II p. M.
Counting enumerators, special agents
nd s,lnerviSorS M Tower than 70 0En DeO-
pie will have been employed in the work
| of the 18th census by the time it is COM
pleted. So far about 100000 have been
expended upon it and it is probable that
the total cost will be about s15.0O0.000. OF
this sum $12.OOO.OOO has been appropriated
by Congress.

Weather Will Rule
Cotton Exchanges,

N
st. Louis, Aug. lit will be wealth
er market on the Cotton Exchange.
Interest In the new crop is fast re-
placing that in the other, especially
since the bull clique Is reported TO be
resting on its oars. Although the
weather from now on to the end of the
season in the eastern half Of the cot
ton belt will be of great Importance.
Texas this week will be in the center
Of the stage because Of the imperative
need of showers there. Last week
comparatively little rain fell. Should
any great amount of rain be reported
over Sunday when the market opens
the advantage will all be with the
short side. Fluctuations will be mar
row and nervous and traders will put
in their time gathering Information
from different localities in Texas and
all other futures will pass unnoticed.
The movement of new cotton in Tex
az UP to the end Of last week was larg-
er than usual, but spot people collect
ed Information showing that this week
it would greatly increase. If this is
&c. the market may benefit by it, no
matter what the ultimate crop promise
may be. The situation at present is
such as to stand large receipts from the
Held and because of all this Texas will
probably dominate future of the cot
ton market. n t.t

owner of Lou Dillon. has gone to
Cleveland to drive his trotter Uhlan,

rujttee to Abandon Demonstration q

Madrid. Aug 1.-THE decision of the
Catholic committee to abandon the
enforcement demonstration which
was to have been made on Sunday at

The members of the committee had
been threatened with arrest and pros
ecution for issuing an insulting rebel
lious manifesto against the govern
ment. III
Canalejas does not conceal his be-
lief that the religious agitation is be-
ing used largely as a cloak to shield
political and revolutionary movement.
He reiterated this view at meeting Of
the cabinet He told his colleagues that
he was determined to pursue q strong
policy, and that he was confident OF
the support of the ma jority in Parlia-
ment and among the people of all
shades of liberalism throughout the
country.
He made similar statement to the
newspapermen later. saying that the
present movement, which was ostensi-
oily a religious one, was merely an at
tempt at a revolutionary reaction on
the part of the extreme Conservatives
and Carlists.
Senior Sagasta, minister of the inte-
rior. added that in. addition to the po-
litical agitation there was a certain ell
cnent interested in speculation on the
Bourse. the members of which would
stop at nothing to hammer down the
prices of Spanish securities.
There is an unconffrmed rumor here
that Don Jaime de Bourbon, the Carlist
pretender. Is at Biarritz awaiting the
event of revolt in the Basque prov
inces. +

King George wrote to the British am
bassador at Madrid. approving of the
Spanish governments attitude on the

sonally expressed the same city to

Interstate GOOD ROADS
CONVENTION FOR SPOKANE
IN l9lI' is SLOGAN

F. w. Dewart, of Spokane, and w.
J. Sutton, Cheney; o. E. Stevenson,
Espanola; John l.. Smith, West
Spokane; A. B. Crane, secretary of
Kettle Falls commercial club; r.
B. Davis, formerly of Hartford,
Conn, and Fred ID. Culver, of
Methow valley, comprise the dele
cation to leave here tonight from
this immediate vicinity. A special
rate of fare and third is being
given to them over the Northern
Pacific.
I'VE are going over there for
the purpose of threshing out
practical working plan for state
road building" said Secretary J.
A. Perry of the Spokane County
Good Roads association this morn
ing. The state aid law as admin
istered in the past has not been
effective or practical, and it is the
purpose of this convention to de-
wise ways and means by which>we
can get good roads builded, wheth-
er it may be by state eaid, by the
bonding of counties or by the as
sessment of districts"
Yakima county is much opposed
to the state aid law and a strong
delegation from that district will
likely be in the state convention
in an effort to bring about radical
changes in the law. Commission
ers met in North Yakima last
week and adopted resolutions ex-
pressing themselves as opposed to
having any of that county's money
expended on the roads outside the
borders of the county.

SMITH WILL
MARRY GIRL
CASE so STRONG THAT HE
CONCLUDED FURTHER RE-
SISTANCE USELESS

Benjamin F. Smith, the seducer
of Roselma Smith, will not go to
prison for his crime, for he inform
ed Deputy Prosecutor A. c. Clau-
sen this morning that he will mar
ry the girl he wronged.
The case against Smith, a well
known employee of the John w.
Graham company, was strong
one and he had little chance of win
ming his case, but his present atti-
tude puts an entirely new COM
pleXion on the matter and his SEN
tence will be suspended
This makes the seventh case of
the kind Mr.. Clausen has handled
within II months, and he declares
that all of the parties are living
happily together. The law under
which these suspensions are given
is that if within three years the
man abandcns and fails tC provide
for his wife, or otherwise mistreats
her, he may be sentenced under the
original plea of guilty.
