railways of the United States nearer a
complete standstill than that at any

lines built in the United States was
6S6 miles. the smallest figure ever re-
corded by this paper. Furthermore II
does not represent a net increase IN
mileage. During the year $50 miles OF
main line railway were abandoned for

Mrs. Burton was aboard the Sham
rock in her accustomed place and,
Judging from the way Shamrock made
in for the Jersey coast, with IT'S
proverbial fresh breezeS and far
tides. it was the impression that Capt.
AppIegate was aboard, but it turned
out that he was not.
The race was not without its spec
tacular and thrilling moments One
of them was when the TWO sloops
made for the Hook. and it was seen
that the tow might interfere. Wheth-
or it would cause both yachts to tack
or whether one would be more fortu-
nate than the other was subject
which aroused intense interest among
all who were out to see the, contest.
Another Thrill.
The other spectacular incident was
when. off Long Branch. the ReSoiute
attempted to cross the shamrock
bow. For a moment 1t looked as
though the two trim racing craft were
about to come into collision. but sud
denly the Resolute was seen TO bear
off on her old tack and all hands
knew that the Shamrock still held the
advantage of weather berth and a
slight lead.
The Resolute gybed around the outer
mark. and at the time afforded an
excellent example of quick and clever
sail handling as well as ANTICIPATION
of what was to be done. Tor her np-
topsail was lowered and a ballooner
run UP in stops while she Travelled
the last three or four lengths before
rounding the mark. In the case or
the Shamrock no attempt was made
to lower her jibtopsail until she was
nearly on the mark Then. much to
the surprise of all who have watched
her previous work under similar con-
ditions, the diminutive headsail was
doused and the ballooner run up and
broken out in what was record time
for her.
Seek Fresher Breezes.
Instead of gybing around the mark.
she wore around and made in again
for the Jersey shore. seeking fresher
her only one for possibly gaining an
over the fleeing white
sIoop. In the light breezes, which
threatened to die out at any moment.
one was as liable to be caught as
the other.
1t was a grave question as to
whether either one would be able to
finish in time. The Resolute soon fol-
lowed the Shamrock's example in
hugging the Jersey shore and passed
that she passed close to the Shrews-
bury Rocks buoy. From then on to
the finish it was a question of follow
my leader.
This. the thirteenth challenge for
cup. has cost the Irish
barenet more than 1000, 900, and the
New York Yacht Club or it's members.
in the construction and maintenance
of three sloops-the Resolute, the
Vanite and the Defiance-has spent
more than that to keep

MILLIONS SPENT
BY i. S. HERE IN
WORK OF CENSUS
Five Millions to Be Discussed
in District Before
Task Ends.

The greatest peacetime industry of
the nation. the decenuial census, is
| bringing to Washington and to thou
sands of its residents millions Of dol
lars which are not expended here in
! normal years.
By the time the census work is COM
pleted it is expected that in the
neiGhborhood of S5.o00,000 will have
been disbursed to residents of this
appropriation for the three-year cen
sus period ending June 80, 1922, Of
$22. 100000.
Disbursements to workers for the
census in the District of Columbia
during the fiscal year 1920. which
ended June 30 last, totaled little
less than $2.S00.000, according 10 an
estimate made today. During the year
the census bureau disbursed total
of $4,000. 900 throughout the coun-
try. During the present fiscal year
total disbursements will be approx
imately $6.000,000. of which Wash
ington Will get about 100000 or
Whereabouts.
Pay Roll of S235,OOO.
With the work of compilation of
both population and agricultural sta
tlstics now at it's peak, the pay roll
for workers in the census bureau re-
siding in the District of Columbia
totaled nearly S295.000 during the
first two weeks in July. This average
will be exceeded during the next five
months, officials say, as it is planned
to increase the staff of worker daily
until the work of punching the mill
lions of cards resulting from the
work of the census enumerators is
completed.
More than 5000 persons are en-
ployed at the census bureaus tenn
porary headquarters at 4 y and Mis-
souri, avenue, most of whom reside
in the District of Columbia.
Paying Nearly Completed.
The work of paying off census emu
merators is very nearly completed,
there being only about 1900 cotton
enumerators left in the field. accord
ing to officials. None of the money
disbursed to these enumera tors will
be paid to workers in the District. In
all, there We're about $4,000 enumer-
ators in the employ of the census
bureau during January, February
and March, the greater part of whom
have been paid.
The man who is charged with dis
bursting these enormous sums of
money is Fred A. Gosnell disbursng
officer for the fourteenth decennial
census, a permanent employe of the
census bureau.
