NEW YORK STANDING

SN CENSUS WILL BE ANNOUNCED TONIGHT (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON. June 5. Population cf New York, the metropolis of the United States, as recorded In the 1920 census, will be announced Saturday night by the census bureau. The population of Boston, which In 1910 was the fifth largest city of the country, will be given out at the same time. The population of Buffalo will ejso be announced. Indications are that New York will show a total population larger that the last available figures for London. The race for largest city in the world, how ever, will be undecided until London's official census of 1921 is announced. More Than Six Million. While no official intimation has been given as to the growth of New York Curing the last 10 years, as will be shown by the numeration made in January, estimates of the city proper , place the total population at about 6,100,000, and for the metropolis district of New York, consisting of the city proper and the territory 10 miles from its boundaries, at about 8,200,000. London's population, according to the latest available statistics which are estimates for 1917, give the population for registration London as 3,026,901, and for Greater London, covering a radius of 15 miles from Charing Cross, as 6,276,753. Comparison Difficult. New York's metropolitan district, as shown by returns of 22 New Jersey cities and towns whose population alicady have been announced, will not. ariow so heavy a growth as it did in the decade ending with 1910. These cities and towns, including Newark, Paterson and Jersey City, show an increase only four-fifths as large as was shown 10 years ago. Fair comparison of the population of the world's two largest cities is difficult owing to the areas covered by the various designations. New York City proper, composed of the boroughs of the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and Richmond, covers about 287 square miles. Its population U 1910 was 4,766,883. City Learned To Eat Fish During War; Keeps Habit Up, Says Local Fish Man Richmond has learned to like fish. And it came about during the war. F. G. Essenmacker, fis merchant on South Fifth street, said Saturday. Since all restrictions were lifted on meat, Richmond having tasted fish, continues to eat it. According to Essenmacker, the small white fresh herring is the most popular with Richmond. The pickerel is second and the catfish, halibut, salmon and mackerel third. Bass and trout are placed in1. the same class as chicken and turkey. Practically all the fish eaten here came from the Great Lakes. The fish are caught and sent to Chicago. They nre then placed in ice and sent throughout the country. The most popular fish in Richmond, white herring, is caught In Lake Michigan. The pickerel and cat fish come from Lake Erie. Bass and trout are caught in the rivers emptying into the Great Lakes and also in the lakes proper. Essenmacker says that except for ,.n occosional bass and carp, no fish are caught around here. He is at present selling "home caught" turtles, however. More fish are consumed in Richmond on Friday and Saturday than during the other five days. Lien and Mouse" Ready For Presentation at E.

Claessens Links Lincoln ! Up With Socialists; Will Speak in City Tonight "Socialists have undergone a series of shocks," said August Claessens, one of the five Socialists who were ousted from the New York legislature, in an interview Saturday, "and one of the main stands against them was their attitude toward the war. We were against the war on principle, and not because we had any sympathy for the kaiser. "Of all the men who have been thrown into prison, none indicted were found guilty of helping the enemy. Our attitude was the same as that taken by Abraham Lincoln when he both spoke and voted against the war of 1S47. We are not happy in stiring up discontent just for the sake of trouble, but we do believe in intelligent discontent, for it is the mother of progress. "The main reason why men like myself were thrown out of the legislature was that it was alleged that our platform was inimical to the state and government. We were raised to the belief that our government was a representative one and that we could take our troubles to the ballot box; when the people elected us as their choice that was what they did." Claessens is an instructor of public speaking and economics in the Rand school of social science, New York City, and was to speak here Fri day afternoon and night on the corner of Sixth and Main streets.
