Rapid Growth Leads
to Crowded Schools,
Lack of Offices

Washington's population h S
grown by some 80 per cent in
the last six years, an estimate
by the Bureau of Census revealed
today, and now stands at approx
mately $4,000, gain Of some
132,131 persons.
While washington was showing
this increase of population, the
country at large showed an in
crease of about 51a per cent for
the same period, the estimate
shows. The gain places Washing
ton twelfth in size among cities
of the nation.
But the city directory for 1885
gives the population OF the Dis
trict as 349, $50, an increase Of
about $4,000 persons over 1885
and an increase Of about $4,000
over 1884.
In making up the directory,
however, wives are not included
and neither are children under
the age of IS.
AMCredSc CApCCCCU
The directory figures for 1884
gave the population Of the Dis
trict as 286,197; for 1895 as 1913,
STA. An increase of around 49,
900 is expected in the 1897 dlrec-
tory. .
When the new 1887 directory
appears it will be in new form.
Instead Of two columns Of names
to a page as in the past, there
will be three columns as IN Oil
rectories of other major cities
throughout the country.
This will result in the new vol
ume being not so thick as in the
mast, but wider and longer.

now greater than each Of 10 States

In Talk to Miners
President RoOsevelt's Wilkes
Barre speech on page 10.
By GEORGE DURNO

WILKES-BARRE, Pa, Oct. 20
U.N.SD.-President sevelt
used fighting language this morn
ing in a denunciation OF pay
envelope propaganda" by en-
ployers opposing him in the cleo
ton.
He charged that employers
were attempting to force their
workers to vote for the Landon-
Knox ticket in a selfish desire to
scuttle the social security act be-
cause it would cost the employer
three dollars for every one the
working man puts up.
The President delivered his
challenge to the opposition party
in friendly Pennsylvania territory
here, addressing a big gathering
of anthracite miners who were
paying tribute to their pioneer
leader, John Mitchell. The Wilkes
Barre speech was the first Of a
fast series of final appearances in
the hotly contested Keystone
State.
Hits Propagandists
Denouncing "the latest attempts
of handful of employers to mis-
lead and coerce labor with regard
to the social security act" Mr..
Roosevelt, after being introduced
by John L. Lewis, president of the
United Mine Workers, said:
mo employer has a right to
put his political preferences in
the pay envelope. That is CO.
erciOn even if he tells the whole
truth.
"TheSe prOpagandists are
driven in their desperation to
the contemplate, unpatriOtic
suggestion that some future
Congress will steal these insur-
ance funds for other purposes.
If they really believe what they
say in the pay envelopes, they
have no confidence in our form
of government or its perman-
ence. 1t might be we'll for them
to move to some other nation in
which they have greater faith"

mo; sorry, but haven't. I'm hop
ing Bob will bring some. Think once
more" Stone said. ''You are sure Mr..
Maiden didn't eat or drink anything
questionable that day?"
"He didn't eat anything at the tea
place. We had a delicious dinner.
Unless his portions were sdoctored'
he could not have been harmed. AS
to drinking, all present drank the
same things, for all / know. But this
is possibility. # some one intended
to poison him, that was very good
opportunity"
"And I am beginning to think this
is what happened"
She looked at him doubtfully.
II don't know much about such
things, MFR. Stone, but is there a
poison that could be administered at
the tea or at the dinner, which
would leave him quite his usual self
for several hours, and then bring
about his sudden death-death with
out sound or a CULVER, merely a
quick passing?"
II know Of no such poison. have
found no one who knows Of such,
but what else is there to assume?"
''Why assume anything? Why not
get facts?"
ITO do that, in this case, would
necessitate a post-mortem examina-
ton"
"And have I objected to that?"
Madame Maiden objects so siren
uously that the question has been
dropped"
"Then take it up again. I command
it, if / have right to do so. If not,
I beg of you that it be done, though
I regret the necessity. Ignore Ma
dame Malden's wishes, and employ
the best talent available for such
work"
Perilla was pale but determined,
and she did not waver at her own
distressing thoughts.
'Then," and Stones voice was
serious, IF a trace of some such
poison is found, you know, I sup
pose, what the immediate reaction
will be-"
"You mean suspicion will be
strengthened against me. I expect
so, but I prefer that to this entire
lack of knowledge. If we have a
crime to deal with, then we know
where we stand; we know, at least,
we have something to look into. You
must know, by this time, Mr.. Stone,
that I didn't kill my husband. You
must know I want his murderer

on this trip will in any way retard
