ported from the 81 States East of the

were registered in the Middle Atlantic

over reported totals of year earlier
were shown in each major geographic
district, except the Southeast

uary total for the 81 States amounted
to 500 479,8 300 This was almost three

below the December figure. The jan
uary, 1886, volume of heavy public
