ESTIMATES OF POPULATION.
United States . Country Of $4,000, 900
According to Census Bureau.

Washington. April 27.-The United
States is now country of 100000. 900
people, according to the bulletin con-
tanning the estimates Of population for
the years subsequent to the thirteenth
census, soon to be published by the
bureau of the census.
As stated, the estimated population of
the United States for July /. 1914, will
be 109.021,982. The population Of the
United States and its possessions in
1910 was 101.74S.26s: so there will have
been an estimated gain Of over 1000, 900
persons in q little more than four years.
The corresponding estimated popula-
ton Of continental United States for
July 1, 1914. is ss.7s1.324, as compared
with the population Of 81, 972,266, as re-
turned by enumerators, April Is, 1910.
This bulletin also presents the esti-
mates Of population in 1910, 1911, 1912,
1913, and 1914, for the states and terri
tories, and for cities which had 5000 or
more inhabitants in 1910.
Estimates Of population are required
primarily for use in the census bureau
in calculating death rates and pc,
capita averages for years other than
the census year. The so-called arithme.
tical method was adopted for comput.
| ing these estimates. It is the simplest
! and it has been shown by experience tc
come nearer in accuracy in the major.
| ity of cases than any other formula. I,
rests on the assumption that the in.
crease in population each year since the
enumeration Is equal to the annual in.
crease from 1900 to 1910.

GREAT BRITAIN STANDS ~ U. 9
Will Not Permit Any Nation TO Inter-
fsrs With Plans in Mexico.

Washington, April 27.-Great Brit
ain will never permit any nation to
embarrass the United States in deal
ing with Mexico, according to Sir Rob
ert William Perks, noted contractor
in the British parliament. Sir Rob-
ert is In Washington ON his way to
Canada. where he has laid plans for
the construction of the Georgian Bay
canal
Come what may. Great Britain can
be depended on to prove her friend
ship for this country" declared Sir
Robert at the willard. There need be
no apprehension that England will
ever take sides with any nation
against the United States. have OBJ
served that it has been gravely sug-
gested that Japan may go to the aid OF
Mexico. That silly treaty tina: we made
with Japan. and which, I believe, has
been renewed in modified terms, would
not be worth the paper 1t Is written
on should Japan threaten America.
Furthermore, YOU may depend upon
the friendship Of France and Russia,
which, with Great Britain. would see
to 1t that no other power shows an
unfriendly attitude or attempt to be
other than neutral in this unfortunate
affair with Mexico. 1t occurs to me
that the United States is in a posi-
ton similar to that which we occupied
toward Egypt some years ago.
IF your government should fail to
repeal the exemption clause of the
Panama canal act, it might occasion
some uneaSiness, and there would be
English people who would take the
view that your government can not be
trusted to observe faithfully its bar
gains with foreign nations, but it is in
conceivable that even that should
threaten or disturb the cordially that
necessarily must exist between these
two great English speaking nations.
We are one people, of the same blood
and the same language.
There is only one European nation
from which this country has anything
to fear in this Mexican crisis, and
that Is Germany. I observe that the
tone Of the Berlin press is decidedly
unfriendly to America. But the three
great powers 1 have mentioned-Great
Britain, France. and Russia-would
not tolerate any unfriendly act on the
part of Germany toward the United
States. 1t is absurd, in my Judgment,
to have any apprehensions that Japan
will render assistance. financially or
morally, to the Mexicans. The posi-
ton OF all nations must be strictly
neutral"
Sir Robert saw several of the adj
ministration officials. and had a long
talk with John Lind, who was the
presidents personal representative in
Mexico.
