LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL.
DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE AND LABOR,
Bureau of the Census,
,
Washington, D. C, July 31, 1905.
Sib:
I have the honor to transmit herewith a bulletin presenting financial and other
having a population of over 25,000.
official statistics
for cities
The
collection of social statistics of cities, statistics of public indebtedness, valuation, taxation, and expendiand statistics of births and deaths was authorized by the act of March 3, 1899, providing for the Twelfth
Census, and again by the act of March 6, 1902, establishing a permanent Census Office. These classes of statistics
had been' collected and published in connection with the Eleventh Census, and the act of 1902 provides for their
collection decennially.
At the time this legislation was enacted statistics of a similar character were being
collected and published annuallj^ by the Bureau (at that time Department) of Labor. This statistical inquiry had
been instituted by a clause in the act of July 1, 1898, which conferred upon the Commissioner of Labor the
authority to compile and publish annually an abstract of the main features of the official statistics of cities of the
United States having over 30,000 population
The prospect of having two similar or closely related lines of statistical inquiry carried on independently by
two distinct Government offices called attention to the need of a consolidation of the work. Accordingly, your
predecessor, under authority conferred upon him by law and in conformity with the recommendations of both
the Commissioner of Labor and the Director of the Census, issued an order transferring to the Bureau of the
Census the work on the statistics of cities which had heretofore been carried on by the Department (now Bureau)
of Labor. By a subsequent order, the Secretary, for reasons explained in this bulletin, authorized the postpone-
tures,
ment of the publication of the annual report for 1903, covering the year
1902.
Accordingly, the present report
covers two years, 1902 and 1903.
Thus, while the present bulletin is a continuation of the series of bulletins on statistics of cities heretofore
compiled by the Commissioner of Labor, it also forms a part of the decennial report provided for by the act
establishing the permanent Census Office.
Another bulletin is in preparation, presenting the statistics for cities
having a population of from 8,000 to 25,000; and it is expected that the decennial reports hereafter will include
all cities of over 8,000 population, while the annual bulletin will be confined to cities of 30,000 population or over.
The statistics herewith presented were collected by agents of the Bureau of the Census, who visited the various

STATISTICS OF CITIES HAVING A POPULATION
OF OVER
25,000.
INTRODUCTION.
This bulletin relates to a class of data covered by
investigations conducted at the censuses of 1880 and
1890 and included in the decennial inquiries authorized
bj' the present census law.
At the -same time it is virtually a continuation of the series of annual reports on
statistics of cities
heretofore published by the Bureau
(formerly Department) of Labor.

an abstract of the main features of the oflScial statistics of the cities
of the United States having over 30,000 population."
In accordance with this act a compilation was attempted from

Congress.
In the meantime Congress had passed the act organizing the Department of Commerce and Labor and
transferring to that Department both the Census Office,
previously in the Department of the Interior, and the
Department of Labor. ^ The transfer went into effect
on July 1, 1908, and on that date the Secretary of the
Department of Commerce and Labor, under authority
conferred upon him by the law, and in accordance with
recommendations of the Commissioner of Labor and
the Director of the Census, issued an order transferring
from the Bureau of Labor to the Bureau of the Census
all the work on the statistics of cities.
Under a subsequent order of the Secretary of Commerce and Labor,
dated September 11, 1903, the annual report of the
statistics of cities of 30,000 population and over was
omitted for the year 1903. This was done in order
that the statistics of
all cities,
irrespective of size, might
be collected as of the same date and ast a part of the
decennial report of the Census Bureau.
was believed that this transfer of the work and
the postponement of the partial report would add
materially to the value and comparability of the entire
inquiry. Another reason for postponement lay in the
fact that the largest and most important series of inIt
quiries included in this investigation related to munici-
pal finance, and was thus identical in character with
the investigation which the Bureau of the Census was
conducting upon the subject of wealth, debt, and taxation.
Therefore, in order to avoid extensive duplication of
work
utilize, in
in a
very
difficult field, it
was proposed
the reports on the social statistics of
to
cities,
information obtained from the general inquiry concerning wealth, debt, and taxation.
—
Cities included in the inquiry.
The inquiry conducted by the Department of Labor was by law limited
to cities having over 30,000 inhabitants.
The collection of social statistics of cities by the Census is not
limited to cities of any specified size so far as any pro-
permanent census act are concerned.
But the Eleventh Census inquiry on this subject included all cities of over 10,000 population, and it was
undoubtedly the expectation of Congress that the
inquiry provided for by the Twelfth Census act and by
the act establishing the permanent Census Office would
be equally comprehensive. Taking into consideration
the object and scope of the two inquiries now comvisions of the
—
bined the one an annual inquiry applying to cities of
over 30,000 and the other a decennial inquiry including
smaller cities the Bureau of the Census decided to

comprise all cities above 8,000, while the report to be
issued annually will be confined to the cities above

as the limit for the present report because, when the
question came up, the data relative to public wealth,
debt, and taxation—one of the special inquiries authorized by the census law— had already been collected for
above 25,000. It was thought
best, therefore, to apply the same limit to the other
classes of data which have usually been included in these
reports.
The collection of the data for 1902 covered
only those cities which had an enumerated population
of over 25,000 at the Twelfth Census, but that for 1903
was expanded to include all cities having an estimated
1902 and included
population of over 25,000 in 1903.

explicitly defined either in the law instituting the
inquiry conducted by the Commissioner of Labor or in

statistics" of cities
which tbe Commissioner of Labor
was authorized to compile and publish would comprise
the data commonly published in the official city reports
and would be compiled directly from those reports.
But for reasons already stated (see page 1) it was
found impracticable to obtain satisfactory results by
that method, and accordingly a schedule of inquiries
was prepared and agents were sent to the various cities
to collect information from city officials.

appropriately it was such information as could be deThe scope of the inquiry

the scope of the investigation authorized
by the act providing for the Twelfth Census and by
the permanent census act, it is to be presumed that
Congress, in specifying the special inquiries to be conducted by the. Census, intended that these inquiries
should include substantially the same topics as they
included at previous censuses.
No report on social statistics of cities was published
in any census prior to the Tenth.
But the law under
which the Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth censuses were
taken (act of May 23, 1860) provided for the collection
for the entire country of certain statistics designated
consumption of water,
number of persons to each mile of sewer, etc. The
report made a quarto volume of 138 pages.
The present report includes statistics relative to the
following subjects: Population, area, police,
fire
depart-
ment, public schools, public libraries, cost of municipal
water, gas and electric light plants, streets, street
lighting, street railways, public parks, building per-

the Tenth Census a report on Social Statistics of

Cities
over 1,700 pages. It consisted mostly of descriptive
text and was something in the nature of a gazetteer,
being a collection of monographs on the several cities,
prepared by different writers and varying somewhat in
style of treatment.
There was usually a
historical
sketch of each city, followed by a description of conditions in 1880,
which touched upon such features as
climate, topography, railroad communications, streets,

the great majority of cases, however, they are accounts
with cash and not with revenue and expense, and hence
show cost of operation or
maintenance, as are revenue and expense accounts in
commercial accounting.
The differences here noted between the accounts of
most cities and those of the commercial world have
their origin in the varying character of the transactions
which they record. The object of the transactions of
the ordinary business man or corporation has always
been profit; hence the primary purpose of his books of
account is to show the cost of conducting his business
and the resulting gain or loss. On the other hand, governments, state and municipal, were originally organare not primarily designed to
ized for and engaged exclusively in providing for the
common defense or in promoting the common weal.
Naturally, under such circumstances, governmental
accounts were originally designed to show the fidelity
and honesty of the fiscal officers, rather than the ends
sought by commercial accounting.
The establishment within the last century by municipal governments of such quasi priwate undertakings as
waterworks, electric light works, gas works, tramways,
etc. has brought into the administration of cities many
problems akin to those met with in the conduct of pri,
vate business. This fact does not, however, change the
essential character of municipal governments, which
still
have as their primary object the securing of the
defense and the promotion of the common
common
weal.
The
principal ends of municipal accounting, as
pointed out by many writers on public finance, must
therefore remain somewhat different from those of
commercial accounting.
The commercial character of the transactions connected with the management of municipal enterprises,
such as waterworks, etc., and the business problems
that have arisen in connection therewith have, however,
led in Great Britain to the quite general introduction
of revenue and expense accounts in the administration
of these enterprises.
This has been followed in a less
degree by the use of similar accounts in the ordinary
governmental transactions of those cities. A few cities
in the United States have also introduced such accounts.
Their further extension will undoubtedly depend upon
whether they prove to be of as great practical value in
the domain of municipal finance as in that of private
business.
As has been pointed
out, the first municipal accounts
introduced were merely records of the flow of cash into
and out from the public treasury. They were designed
solely to

In such cities the aggregate of warrants drawn in settleschools

of claims more nearly represents the cost of governmental operation and maintenance and expenditures
for fixed assets than does the aggregate of those paid.
Yet the tabulation of warrants drawn, combined with a
statement of receipts, does not furnish a complete exhibit of the financial transactions of a given year; it
does not include a statement of the payment of warrants
or bills payable drawn in previous years but liquidated
during the current year; and hence, from the standpoint of municipal accounting, it is as imperfect as
would be a trader's accounts from which were omitted
outstanding liabilities for purchase of merchandise.
To make an approximately complete exhibit for a given
fiscal year of the financial transactions of cities of the
class referred to in this paragraph, not only must the
comptroller's record of warrants drawn during the year
be presented, but the treasurer's statement of warrants
paid or liquidated during the year must distinguish
those outstanding at the beginning of the year from
those drawn during the year.

the cost of operating the municipal government or of
maintaining any of its functions for any given fiscal
year, and will also show the relation between expenditures and results, provided all the bills are presented
when due and settled at once by the issue of warrants
to be paid in the immediate future.
The problem of securing from the treasurer's or
comptroller's books a statement of the cost of governmental operation and maintenance and expenditures for
the acquisition or construction of fixed assets, is more
difficult in the case of cities in which large numbers of
warrants, or orders having the authority of warrants,
are paid in a year subsequent to their issue. Under
such conditions the classified exhibit of the treasurer's
transactions for any given year may show no payment

municipal activities and transactions are of two radiOne includes those municipal

without compensation, the expense being met by revenue obtained principally from compulsory contributions levied without regard to the benefits which the
contributors may individually derive from any or all
municipal activities; the other includes those activities
from which a revenue is derived that represents a partial or full compensation or return for the privileges
granted, commodity or property sold, or specific service rendered.
The activities and transactions of the first class are
here classified as arising from the governmental functions of a municipality; those of the second class as
commercial functions. The two classes
be divided as follows:
Governmental functions. The term governmental
functions as here used includes those municipal functions which are as a rule performed for all citizens
alike without any attempt to measure the amount of
benefit con f erred or exact compensation theref o r. Most
of them are essential to the existence and development
of government and to the performance of the governmental duty of protecting life and property and of
maintaining a high standard of social efficiencj'. Chief
among such activities are those of general administration; the protection of life, health, and property; the
care of the defective, delinquent, and dependent classes;
the education of the young, and the performance of

In the same category are included the opening, grading, paving, and curbing of streets, and the construction of sewers,
made
where such public iuiprovements are
at public expense, without, in the opinion of the
proper authorities, conferring upon particular individuals measurable special benefits, for which compensation is exacted by the city.
To the same general
group belong the making and paying of loans and the
payment of interest thereon, when such loans are made
in connection with the other activities and transactions
before mentioned.
The general governmental functions of municipalities
may be classified in a great variety of ways, according
to the point of view from which considered.
For
example, they may be classified with reference to the
name or character of the office through which they are
exercised, or the class of transactions to which they
give rise. The most desirable method of classification
for statistical purposes has been the subject of considerable discussion and agitation in the United States
during the last ten years. One of the first American
studies in this field was a paper by Prof. Frederick E.
Clow, published in the Quarterly Journal of Economics
in July, 1896, which makes large use of the results
of the researches of Professor
Wagner,
set forth in his

brought the subject to the attention of all interested in
good municipal government and in the securing of
comparable municipal statistics. In the last two years
a further study of the subject has been made by a large
number of men connected with the National Municipal
League, the American Economic Association, the various associations of American accountants, and by the
fiscal officers of a large proportion of our cities.
In accordance with the basis of classification referred
to in the preceding paragraph, governmental functions
are subdivided by the Bureau of the Census into nine
general divisions, as follows: 1. General administration;
II.
Public safety, including protection to
life,
health,
and propertj'; III. Public charities and corrections;
IV. Public highways and sanitation; V. Public education, including libraries and museums; VI. Public rec-

Commercial functions. The commercial functions of

from the exercise of such functions are those involving
money at interest, the use of public
property for compensation, the sale of any commodity
or article of commerce, or the performance of any work
or service for pay. All these transactions involve the
the loan of public
performance by the city of some service or the grant
of some favor for special compensation, whether such
service is undertaken or favor granted primarily for
the service to be rendered or favor bestowed, or for the
revenue to be secured. None of them is essential to the
existence and development of the government, although
they majf be made to contribute to its support.
Commercial functions, together with commercial and
semicommercial transactions which arise from them,
may be grouped into three subclasses, here designated
as rmmicipal investments, municipal industries, and
municipal se7'vices.
(1) Under "municipal investments" are included all
transactions of municipal governments connected with
the purchase, sale, or possession of real property or
securities held exclusively for investment purposes,
and the loan of public money to individuals, corporations, or other civil divisions.
Such transactions are

Hence the Bureau
of the
Census uses the term municipal industries to include
not merely those properly designated as quasi private,
as defined above, but all departments, offices, or activities
organized by cities to furnish utilities to their
compensation but without regard to the
citizens for a
question of profit.

and in addition to the regular work of the various departments and offices. Receipts therefrom are always

In governmental accounts and reports, the three words
most frequently employed in referring to the movement of money from the public treasury, or to the issue
of orders upon that treasury by the comptroller or
auditor, are, in the order given, expenditures, payments,
and disbursements; in Great Britain usage is divided
between payments and expenditures.
The three words were used at first with varying signification, according to their derivation.
The original
meaning of disbursement was the taking of money from
a common purse by one having authority to do so.
In
like manner, a payment was at first the settlement of a
claim or debt, or the compensation for value received
in goods or services; and an expenditure, the taking
from a common stock for use, i. e., the consuming or
exhausting of that stock. But although these three
words differ in derivation and in fundamental meaning,
as applied at the present time to the transactions of the
treasury they are interchangeable and synonymous, all
being used to describe what is technically known as the
"movement of cash" (i. e., money and "current credits," such as checks, etc.) from the treasury.
In the language of governmental finance, and in common speech, disbursement is always limited to the going
out of "cash," as above defined, from the supply on
hand. Expenditure is sometimes employed with the
same meaning, but in public finance it is generally used
in referring to the issue of orders upon the treasury by
the comptroller or auditor; no case has been found,
however, either in public financial reports or in books
relating to commercial accounting, in which the word is
used to include at the same time both the disbursement
of " cash " and the settlement of claims

ment and payment are especially appropriate in the
report of the treasurer in speaking of the movement of
cash from the common fund, and the words expenditure
and payment in the statement of facts shown in the
result
in the
reports of comptrollers or auditors.
In the United States, when comparisons are made
between the reports of one city or state and those of
•another, great confusion often arises from the fact that
public finance does not show any uniform usage with
reference to these three words.
This confusion
is
increased by the occasional use of the word expense
with the meanings commonly attached in governmental
reports to expenditure., as explained above. Such use
of expense is unknown in commercial accounting, and
it is hoped that its use in this sense will soon disappear
from public finance. It should be used only with the
single signification given it in commercial accounting,
to which attention is called below.
Seeking to adjust its classification and terminology
as closely as possible to the existing usages of public
and private accounting, the Bureau of the Census has
adopted the word receipts to signify the aggregate
receipts in cash and in goods and services, and the
word payments for use in speaking of the aggregate
liquidation of claims and outstanding warrants by cash
and by the issue of warrants, orders, bonds, or other
evidence of indebtedness.
It has already been stated that in a very few American cities, and in quite a large number of those of Great
Britain, there has been introduced a system of accounts
modeled upon that in use in commercial houses, and
kept on what is generally referred to as the "revenue
and expense basis." This system of accounts has as its
central aim the determination of the cost of governmental maintenance and operation.
To denote such cost there are two terms, expense and

United States and in Great Britain, the former is
almost universally employed. In the British cities
which have adopted revenue and expense accounts,
usage is divided between the two words. In the United
States, where but few cities keep books on the revenue

word in public finance for the purposes mentioned, but
preference is given to expense. The almost universal

municipal finance corresponds to the income or earnings
of a private individual or corporation, the majority of
the cities which present revenue and expense accounts
in their published reports make use of either income or
revenue.
As American lexicographers have appropri-
ated the latter for use in governmental finance with the
meaning which they, in common with American account-
with the words income and earnings in
private business, the Bureau of the Census has adopted
ants, associate
revenue rather than income.
The use of income or earnings in private business
and of income or revenue in the accounts of British
municipalities excludes receipts
from
loans, receipts as
agent or in any private trust capacity, and all kindred
or related receipts.
The use of the word expense, in
the same way, excludes payments on loan account or
in any fiduciary capacity.
The Bureau of the Census
thus employs these words, even though by so doing it
departs to a slight extent from the meanings assigned
to them by fiscal reports of many cities and other civil
divisions in the United States.
It is sought to use
these and all other technical words in public finance in
strict conformity with the universal usage of commercial accounting where the same differs from that of
individual cities or other governments, unless there is
some essential difference in public finance and private
business calling for a different choice of technical terms.
In commercial accounting the costs of acquiring what
are generally
known as
'
'
fixed assets," the lands, build-
and equipments to be permanently used in business, are referred to as capital expenditures and capital
outlays, i. e. expenditure or outlay for what is designated "capital." The same terms have been, and are
now to a limited extent, employed in public finance.
Many fiscal officers and economic writers have, howings,
,
ever, objected to the use of the
word "capital"
in
governmental accounts. They urge that governments,
unlike individuals, do not have capital. None of the
are "capital liabilities," as that term is used
commercial accounts, and their assets should not,
therefore, be referred to as "capital assets." In view
of these objections, the Bureau of the Census has
adopted the word "outlays" as the term to be used
liabilities
in
in referring to the cost of the fixed properties, public
works, and equipment of cities. The word "outlays"
is chosen rather than "expenditures," owing to the use
of the latter with a number of different meanings, to
which attention has already been called.

Payments. The payments of a municipality are the

out by it in its fiscal transactions. The word payment
is used also in two other closely related senses: (1) The

important object of the investigation of municipal
finance, as was pointed out in the beginning, is the
ascertaining of the total and relative cost of municipal
government. To show that and allied facts in their
proper relations, municipal payments and receipts
must be separated so as to distinguish those which are
vitally related to meeting the expenses and outlays of
the government, and to the administration of the various governmental and commercial functions of the city,
from those which are not so related. On that basis the
Bureau of the Census recognizes two general classes of
payments and receipts: (1) Those which it designates
as corporate, meaning thereby those which are vitally
related to the aggregate activities of the various
branches or departments of the municipality, as already
^defined;
and

Payments for municipal investment expenses are those made to meet the expenses
incurred in the administration of sinking, investment,
and public trust funds.
They are given in Table 22,
but are not separated into those for the three classes of
funds.
For the great majorit}' of cities the expenses
given are those connected with the administration of
sinking funds. The paj^ments for debt reduction, both
corporate and temporary, are given in Table 36. The

The revenues from licenses and permits include, according to the analysis of most writers on public

analysis, the fees from the taxes connected with the
granting of licenses and permits. Inasmuch, however,

They are of three general classes:
(1) The first general class of temporary payments
and receipts are met with in revenue and expense
accounts.
They are the payments in those accounts
that represent no part of the cost of municipal opera-
and the receipts which constitute
no part of the contributions from revenue for meeting
such costs. There are three subclasses: (a) Payments
by and receipts of the city in correction of error, to
which the Bureau of the Census applies the specific
designation " refunds," and the previous counterbalancing receipts and payments in error; (J) receipts
from any interest on city bonds sold that has accrued
at the time of sale and the counterbalancing payments
at the next interest settlement; and (c) payments by
sinking, investment, and public trust funds of interest

(3) The third general class of temporary payments
and receipts are those made or taken by the city acting
as agent or trustee for private individuals or for other
civil divisions.
They include the

should be noted that of the moneys received from
special assessments or as deposits in
service performed or to be

city,
through a contractor, only such
amounts as are later returned to the contributors, and
thus belong to class (1) mentioned above, constitute
temporary or accounting receipts and payments; the
amounts actually expended in payment for such service
constitute corporate receipts and payments.
Balances for corporate uses and for temporary
accounts.
The amounts in the treasury of a municipality at the end of any given year, thus available for
meeting its expenses, outlays, or indebtedness, are
designated by the Bureau of the Census as balances for
corporate uses, while amounts available only for meeting temporarj' payments are called balances on tempoeither directly
or
—
rary accounts.
In this connection attention
is
called to the fact that
no attempt is made by the Bureau of the Census to
report separately the balances on temporary accounts,
because the entries appertaining to such accounts are
frequently associated on city books with those relating
to accounts with corporate payments and receipts, only
one balance being shown.
Commercial surplus or deficit. In the great majority
of cities only a portion of the municipal investment
income and the municipal industrial income is consumed in meeting the corresponding expenses. The
surplus, which is available for meeting general expenses and outlays, may properly be referred to as
commercial surplus. Similarly, the occasional excess
of expenses over income may be designated commercial
—
deficit.

debits
and

—The
accounting
debits and credits of a municipality are the debit and
books which do not represent
actual financial transactions between the city and its
creditors or debtors, but- which arise from accounting
requirements. The most common accounting debits
and credits are those called transfers. Among others
are those which record abatements of and discounts on
such revenues as taxes and licenses and discounts on

or credit between any two branches, departments, offices,
funds, or accounts of a municipality not involving the
performance of any services such as are associated with
service transfers as above defined.
Among general
transfers are included the sale of city securities to the
sinking, investment, or public trust funds; the sale/of
any securities or other property by one branch, department, office, fund, or account to another; and the payment of interest on, or the cancellation of, city securities
held as investments by the sinking fund or by any other
independent branch or fund of the municipal government. When special reference is made to the general
transfers last mentioned, they may be designated as

of such sinking funds consist of the taxes and special

with any cash which has been received for the payment
of such taxes and assessments but not utilized for liquidating the loans. Taxes and assessments levied or
authorized are in the technical language of accountants said to be "revenues accrued" and are held by
the courts to be assets of the city.
Loans for whose
payment such "accrued revenues" are pledged are in
American legal decisions viewed quite differently from
unfunded loans or from funded loans for which a
portion only of appropriated or pledged revenues are
accrued.

Most
private trust funds are of a very temporary
nature and do not involve any special investments by

kept separate or as a part of the genei-al cash of the

In the great majority of cases in which the Census

each of these branches is the same. Occasionally, especially in the case of schools, the territory is somewhat larger, but there is usually very little difference
between the population of the school district and that
of the territory subject to the "city government."

The Census tables present from the auditor's or comptroller's report a record of all payments of claims by

—
There are included among receipts from debt obligations issued, amounts equal to the face of all warrants
issued during the year which are outstanding at its
close.
They also include among the payments for
liquidation of debt all disbursements
made by the treasurer during the year for warrants outstanding at the
beginning. In this way the settlement of claims is always reported in the year when made, and. cash payments and receipts are reported in the year when the
money is disbursed or taken in. Thus, the Census report approximates in character the books of a business
house which pays for goods and services in part by cash
and in part by duebills and other forms of bills payable.
The extent to which the books of the comptroller or
auditor of any given city differ from those of the city

Classification of cities iy population.
In all of the
general tables of this report relating to financial transactions, assets, and liabilities, the cities are arranged according to the Census estimates of the population on June
1, 1903, the number assigned each representing its rank
according to such estimates. The tables for 1902 give

mates mentioned, had that population on June 1, 1903.

population of 100,000 to 300,000; Group III, 43 cities,
with a population of 60,000 to 100,000; and Group IV,

To this last rule, however, one
exception is noted: Where the close of the fiscal year
of the general government falls between January 1 and
June 30, 1903, the fiscal years closing next prior to
June 30, 1903, are chosen for the subordinate branches.
Where the fiscal year of any department of a municipality differs just six months from that of the general
city government, the fiscal year chosen for that department is the one closing six months prior to the end of
the fiscal year of the general government.
Table 19 gives the date of the close of the fiscal year

these tables two objects were kept constantly in view:
To provide the maximum
of information to students of
municipal finance, and to present the data in a form
that would enable local officials to detect all errors of
the Census agents and so secure in succeeding years a
correction of the imperfections in this compilation.
The character and arrangement
of these 26 tables
may
be briefly stated as follows:
Tables 19 and 20 are summaries of transactions and balances; the former presents the total receipts, payments,
and balances classified for each city, by independent
departments, branches, and funds; and the latter presents the total corporate and temporary payments to
and receipts from the public, together with the total
service and general transfers between independent
departments, branches, and funds.
Tables 21, 22, and 23 present the detailed exhibits
of the corporate payments for expenses and outlays,
together with the temporary payments and transfers
vitally related thereto.
Table 21 is an exhibit of the
payments for general and municipal service expenses.

these two classes of expenses, since the books of but

Table 25 for 1903 presents an exhibit of receipts by

the imperfections of the schedules used in 1902, the

municipal service income and are tabulated in Table 29.

Population and area, with date of latest incorporation.—T\x\s table gives for each city the population
enumerated at the Federal censuses of 1890 and 1900
and the estimated population for 1901, 1902, and 1903.
The estimates are those adopted and used by the Bureau
of the Census whenever it is necessary to compare data
collected in intercensal years with the contemporary
population, as in the computation of death rates or of
per capita statistics. For this purpose it is assumed,
in the absence of any state census, that the annual increase of population since the last Federal census is
equal to one-tenth the decennial increase between the
last
two Federal censuses.

Police and arrests. This table shows the number of
employees in the police department and the number
of arrests. The employees are classified according to
the character of their work. Patrolmen and officers, as
the expression implies, include roundsmen, sergeants,
lieutenants, etc.
Special policemen, watchmen, etc.,
include market masters, city employees, guards for
chain gangs and cemeteries, custodians, sentinels, court
bailiffs, temporary appointees as sanitary inspectors,
school janitors, and others with limited police powers.
Park policemen and supernumeraries, substitutes, and
reserves are defined by their titles.
Other employees "
include messengers, janitors, drivers, matrons, clerks,
police telegraph operators, surgeons, etc. In Baltimore
the clerical and miscellaneous force of the police department is classified under patrolmen and officers, since, in
accordance with the law, the members have full police
powers and may be called upon to serve as patrolmen,
if necessary.
In Washington, D. C. desk sergeants are
included under "other employees," since they are not
subject to patrol duty. In other cities they are included
with "patrolmen and officers."

most cities many of the streets are swept more than

number of yards swept per week is not equivalent to
the total area of the streets which are swept, but is
considerably more than that.

months, thus reducing the averages for the year.

In collecting the data for this table a departure was
made from the method followed by the Department
of
Labor, since, under the authority of section 8 of the
permanent census act (March 6, 1902) providing for an
annual collection of mortality statistics, a transcript of
the record of each death occurring in registration areas
had been secured and was on file in the Bureau of the
Census. This made it unnecessary for the special
agents to copy or compile returns from city records
and permitted the entire preparation of the tables
within the Bureau, thereby insuring conformity with
the International (formerly Bertillon) Classification,
which has been adopted for the Census mortality statistics and is given in full in the "Manual of International Classification of Causes of Death," published by
this Bureau.
The tables presented, therefore, correspond, so far as
the details given are concerned, with the results compiled for the regular annual Census reports on mortality

and accurate to afford comparable results, and a few

The
excess in some cases repre-
changes in departments made by the cities. A number,
however, merely represent differences in the judgment
of the Census agents as to the proper method of making
reports.
As a rule, the later report is the one to be

A
will disclose all these differences.
In Table 19 investment, sinking, and public trust
funds are uniformly treated as independent branches or
departments of the city. For the very few cities which
include the transactions and balances of their permanent funds with those of the "city government," the
figures for that government, as given in Table 19, are

amounts of the transactions and balances of these funds.
This applies to any independent branch of government
which includes reports of sinking, investment, and
public trust funds with those of
in 1903, but for
which the
agents for one reason or another failed to make report
in 1902, and in others, the cash belonging to civil divi-
its
general treasury.
To make as condensed an
exhibit as possible in Table 19,
investment funds are included with sinking funds,
although shown separately, in Tables 32 and 33.
In comparing the balances and transactions of the
sinking, public trust, and private funds, as given in
Table 19, with those shown in Tables 31, 32, 33, and 34,
certain variations will be noticed.
In most cases these
differences represent moneys held in the general city
or departmental treasury that belong to these particular
funds.
Such moneys are given in the tables last mentioned as belonging to these funds, while in Table 19
they are shown as in the general treasury.
Another fact concerning the figures in Table i and
those of Tables 19 and 20, for both 1902 and 1903, should
be observed. The total of receipt transactions and balances at the beginning of the year does not equal the
payment transactions and balances at the close of the
year for the city of Pittsburg, Pa., for the group in
which it is found nor for the grand total. This discrepancy arises from the fact that in that city the agents
of the
Bureau were unable to secure reports of the finan-
transactions during the year of a certain sinking
fund.
It represents the difference in the cash balances
of that fund at the beginsing and close of the two fiscal

which reports were secured
The former
very largely represents the properties of obscure private
trust funds for which the records in the earlier year
were in such shape that to compile a report would call
for the expenditure of more labor than the agents were
authorized to make.
In addition to the excess cash reported in Tables 19
and 20 at the beginning of 1903 over that reported in
the corresponding tables for the close of 1902, those
tables exhibit for some cities a number of other variations.
As a pule, they all arise from consolidation and

Among payments for "statistical offices" are included all payments for the collection and registration

certain of the divisions attempted in 1902 involved a
statistics.
classification of certain items of
all
expense quite different
from that employed by the majority of cities, thus necessitating the expenditure of much labor on the part
of the Census employees without adequate return in the
shape of satisfying statistics, a somewhat different treatment was adopted in 1903. For example, expenses for
"public printing," "light, other than for streets," and
"water for general purposes," which in 1902 were tabulated separately and included under "general administration," in 1903 were tabulated just as reported by
the several cities, the great majority of which include
these payments with those of the respective departments or offices. For the few cities which segregate
these items of expense the payments made in 1903 are
included in the column " miscellaneous general accounts," under "general administration."
A
study of Table 21 suggests that many exceptional
payments may be included in the first six divisions that
should be brought into Division VII. Future Census
reports will doubtless show an increase in amounts tabulated as "miscellaneous general expenses," not because
of any increase in such payments, but by reason of the
demand for more accurate classification. An increase
of this kind will make the statistics for the other group's
more comparable, and will bring out the real significance
of the table in all respects.
Oeneral administration.
—In 1902 the payments, ex-
clusive of service transfers, reported under "general
administration" for the 160 cities aggregated $26,407,The corresponding figures for 1903 are: Total,

The payments for the "mayor's office" and "execu-
which are shown separately for 1903, are

Among

general offices that can not be identified with any
one of those specifically mentioned in the table. The

occupations, and for the expenses of municipal civil

Taken as a whole, the statistics for this division
are fairly comparable for the two years.

In 1903 the reported payments for these cities, including such transfers, were $18,422,144, or exclusive of
them, $18,277,895. This is an increase during the year
of $625,463, or 3.6 per cent.
Public highways and sanitation. To the fourth division of departmental functions is given the designation
"public highways and sanitation." Neither the name
nor the classification is wholly free from objection. The
statistics for sewers are included with those for highways because in the smaller cities they are under the
same supervision and have the same engineering officer,
whose expenditures can not be assigned to either branch
of the service.
Only in a few of the larger cities do we
find a scientific arrangement by which health departments, street cleaning, sewers and sewage disposal,
—
refuse disposal, and other lines of sanitary
work are
brought into one group of offices and accounts. Until
such arrangement becomes more common the illogical
classification employed in the Census tables must be
followed, notwithstanding the objections that may be
legitimately urged against the same.

rendered it difficult to separate salaries and wages from
miscellaneous expenses, great difficulty was experienced

greater detail for 1903 than for 1902. The headings
for both years fully set forth the classes of payments
included in each column.
'Of the 160 cities whose statistics are presented in

General property taxes. The receipts from general
property taxes are at the present time the most important single source of municipal revenue. These receipts
are presented in Table 24 in two columns, marked
"general levies" and "specific levies." The general
significance of these terms
is
shown by the following
definitions or statements:
General levies of the general propert}' tax are those
general property taxes levied by a government in all
parts of the territory within its jurisdiction and upon
all classes
of property not specifically exempt.
Specific levies of the general
property tax are those
general property taxes levied by a government either
upon certain classes of property or upon all property,
not specifically exempt from all taxes, in a portion only
of the territory within
its jurisdiction.
35
The
object of this separation
is
the column B, "specific levies,"
to bring together in
all
receipts
eral property taxes that are levied
from gen-
under conditions
meriting the special consideration of students of public
finance.
They comprise receipts from (1) levies of general property taxes made under circumstances that
cause them to approximate in character special property taxes, special assessments, privilege taxes, licenses,
these taxes which arise from the
etc.; (2) levies of
overlapping of governmental areas which
retain a
still
amount of autonomy; (3) levies growing out of
the absorption, partial extinction, or combination of
previously independent governmental units, and the
continuing under the new order of old obligations; and
(4) levies arising from the embryonic development of
certain
units which may become, or are, parindependent for certain governmental functions.
General levies of the general property tax. Under
this head are included all receipts from taxes levied
upon property on the basis of the ordinary general
property tax paid by private individuals. Taxes on

These
franchises are assessed in that state as real property
and they contribute taxes to the city for local purposes,
but not for state purposes. The tax is levied at the
same rate ad valorem as upon all other real and personal property of the city.
Similar contributions from
taxes on the franchises of public service corporations
are included with general levies of the general property tax in the cities of Kentucky.

general property tax for a number of other states.

purposes constitute, in theory, a mean between the
extremes of general taxes and special assessments.
Such taxes are, as a rule, levied by wards or groups of
wards to cover the cost of making local improvements
in streets or parks or maintaining local systems of
street lighting, sprinkling, etc.
These, also, are reported as "specific levies of general property tax."
Specific levies of still another kind are reported for
a number, of cities, which, for one reason or another,
impose a lower rate of taxation for general purposes
upon certain outlying wards or districts. This represents the converse of the conditions involved in the
taxes first described.
In one case a heavier burden is
imposed upon the more highly improved sections; in
the other, the burden of the less improved sections
is
reduced by taxing them at a special lower rate. In
such cities the Bureau of the Census reports as specific levies of general property tax" the entire proceeds
of the lower rate.
Conditions peculiar to Pennsylvania. In Pennsylvania certain conditions attending the assessment and collection of taxes in cities of the second and third classes
require special mention. Taxable property is divided
into three classes and each class is taxed at a different
rate.
No distinction or separation is made in the collection of these taxes, the aggregate proceeds therefrom being designated "receipts from taxes." The
Bureau of the Census, therefore, reports these taxes
under "general levies of the general property tax,"
even though they are levied upon different classes of
property at different rates, and under the foregoing
definitions might properly be classed as " specific levies

Poll taxes for local pwrjoos&f.— Under this head the
Bureau of the Census has sought to secure as complete

every state there is a gi'eater margin of possible
inaccuracy in the Census figures for poll taxes than for
any other class of municipal receipts. This inaccuracy
arises from the defective local records with reference
to the subject.
The records of assessment in practically all cities give a complete exhibit of the amount of
poll taxes levied.
In contrast, but few cities have any
account of the amounts received from such taxes, the
receipts commonly being included with general property
taxes and other taxes under the general head "receipts
from taxes." As a result the agents of the Census in
the great majority of cases were able to obtain only
approximately correct returns of poll taxes, and the
amounts shown in Table 24 as receipts from that source

This total in 1902 was.
$831,537, and for the .same cities in 1903 was $815,865,
a decrease of only 1.9 per cent.
The receipts from sales for the 160 cities increased
from $826,872 in 1902 to $942,234 in 1903. This is an
42
increase of 1115,362, or 13.9 per cent. The receipts
from these sales have been tabulated as "revenue."
Undoubtedly some portion of these sales represents
receipts from the disposal of worn-out equipment or
property, the acquisition of which had previously been
included among outlays, and under a correct system of
accounting should be included with sales from real estate
as temporary'- receipts.
But these sales constitute onlj'
a small portion of the minor sales of cities, and as it has
been found in practice impossible to separate the two
classes of such minor sales, all the proceeds have been
included in Table 29 as revenue or corporate receipts,
and not
in Table 30 in the same class with those from
the sale of real property.
There was no appreciable change in the amounts reported as from miscellaneous sources in the two years.
Theoretically, there should have been no such receipts.
Their existence marks some failure of the clerks to secure data for the proper segregation of this minor city
income.
A part should undoubtedly have been returned as "miscellaneous" and tabulated in Table 26 as
general revenue. The greater portion should have been
tabulated under the various heads of Table 29. The
amounts not thus segregated, but tabulated as miscellaneous in Table 29, in 1902 aggregate $240,024; in 1903
for the same cities the aggregate was $209,737. The

The total receipts from special assessments for outlays reported in 1902 for 160 cities were $26,089,658.
The corresponding
total for
1903 was $33,558,828.
A
part of this difference, $7,469,170, represents an actual
increase of municipal revenue from this source. Another part represents the results of the persistent labor
of the agents of the Census in securing reports of such
receipts for cities which do not carry them in the
accounts of the ordinary treasury balances and transactions.

In 1903 there were secured separate reports of these
funds and accounts for onl}' 71 of the 175 cities. In
1902 such accounts were obtained from only 56. Many
of the reports for that year were only partial, and when
the balances in the 1902 report differ from those of
1903 the latter is more nearly correct. The difference
marks the imperfections in the 1902 report. For 1902
many receipts and payments on account of these private trust accounts were tabulated under appropriate
heads in Table 30. The payments and receipts were
shown on the city books, but no separate statement
of balances was procurable, hence the disposition of the

1902 was 11,409,585,642. The per capita debt for these
cities was $66.38. For the same cities in 1902 the total

These transactions with reference to debt obligations

The net
re-
which the cities realized from debt obligations
for meeting other municipal expenditures are the excess
of receipts from the public over payments to the
public on account of such transactions. In like manner, where cities reduce rather than increase their indebtedness the net payments for debt reduction are the
excess of payments for such reduction over the corresponding receipts from new securities issued. Of the
ceipts
160 cities tabulated in 1902, 64, or 40 per cent, made
greater payments to the public for the cancellation or
redemption of their debt than they received from the
public for new debt obligations issued. The cities
which increased their obligations to the public during
the year number 96, or 60 per cent of the total. In
1903 the cities whose payments for debt reduction exceeded their receipts from new obligations issued numbered only 51 in a total of 175. They were, therefore,
only 29.1 per cent of the total number, while those receiving more for new debts incurred than paying for
old ones redeemed made up 70. 9 per cent of the aggregate.

sought to secure the separation of outstanding obligations into six classes designated as follows: "General

General londs. Under "general bonds" the Bureau
of the Census instructed its agents to report all long
term loans, however designated in law, not specifically
assigned by the instructions to the other classes of
public debt obligations.
Many difiSculties were met
with in carrying out this instruction, and the separation
—
intended has not in all cases been fully made. The
proportion of public debt included under this designation is greater than it should have been, and the other
classes of debt securities, as shown, are correspondingly
smaller.

was intended by the Census instructions. In like manner, some cities designate as "bonds" loans to be met
from the proceeds of the current tax levy already made.
In such cities the Census group of "general bonds"
has been improperly increased at the expense of the
two classes of tax loans designated as "temporary
loans" and " revenue loans." It is hoped that with an
appreciation on the part of local officials, as well as
Census agents, of the importance of the classification,
tax levies and special assessments correspond to sinking fund assets for other loans of the
municipality.
Few cities, however, show this fact on
the balance sheets or have any trustworthy data relating
to the collectible special assessments that should be included among their assets. For cities that properly
classify their debt exhibit and fully separate the tax
loans and special assessment loans from all other loans
the assets above referred to should approximate the

Temporal^ loans and revenue loans. Under "temporary loans" and "revenue loans" the Bureau of the
Census sought to tabulate exhibits of all short term

for which the Census agents failed to secure the proper
revenue already provided for but not

Such loans are made with the expectation, and in most cases with the distinct legal pledge,
that their amortization will be met from the current
tax levy. The character of these loans is such that on
a complete balance sheet at the close of the year outstanding loans of the two classes here mentioned would
always be balanced by credits in the form of "collectible taxes" levied but not paid.
The distinction between the "temporary loans" and
"revenue loang" under the instructions to the Census
agents is as follows: Under "temporary loans" were
to be reported all "notes," so called "tax certificates;"
"tax warrants," and other "short term loans" whose
amortization is provided for from the proceeds of a
tax levy made and also collectible within the fiscal year

Under these two heads the agents of the Census were

special assessment assets than they are entitled to.
In
like manner the net debt, i. e., the total or gross debt
less ordinary sinking fund assets and the special sinking fund assets in the form of uncollected tax levies
and special assessments, is made to appear too large.
In general it may be said that the foregoing remarks
apply to the great majority of cities for which Table 36
shows but relatively small amounts of special assessment loans outstanding. It also applies to such cities
as levy taxes in one year and collect them in the next,
and in this table are given but relatively few temporary
or revenue loans.
In this connection mention should be made of the
fact that in most states tax loans and special assessment
loans are not considered as belonging to that part of
the public debt that is taken into consideration when
determining whether the city has reached its borrowing
however designated in
law, whose ultimate payment was to be met from the
proceeds of special assessments levied upon property
specially benefited by the expenditures for meeting
which these loans were issued. Such loans were to be
classified under the first of these two beads if the expenditures referred to were in the nature of outlays for
special improvements, and under the second if the expenditures were incurred in the performance of some

day of the following j^ear. Such warrants are not, as
a rule, paid until the first day of the succeeding year.

A glance at Table 36 in connection with Table
19 shows that many cities have independent park, school,

and other boards, so far as relates to the custody or
management of current funds, that do not give such
boards the power to borrow money on long-term loans.
Of the total debt outstanding at the close of 1902, and
also of 1903, only 4.5 per cent was reported as issued by
independent brandies, which, under the Census
defini-
tion, are treated as parts of the municipality.

Assessed valuation of property
The valuation given
Table 38 is the reported valuation of property which
is subject to taxation for city purposes.
In some states,
notably in Pennsylvania, this varies somewhat from the
valuation on which taxes for state purposes are levied.
The reported basis of assessment in practice is the per
cent of estimated true value of property which the city
officials state that the assessed valuation constitutes.
A
slight study of the figures and a comparison of those for
the two years 1902 and 1903 will demonstrate how untrustworthy the percentages for the great majority of
cities are as in dices of the true value of property.
The
figures of the table should not be used as a basis of estimates or statements concerning the true value of propin

They are valuable only as exhibits relating to

APPENDIX.
SPECIAL FEATURES OF THE TAX SYSTEM IN CERTAIN SPECIFIED CITIES.
SPECIFIC LEVIES OF
THE GENERAL PROPERTY TAX.^
—
Los Angeles, Cal. Los Angeles reported small amounts in 1902
1903, the proceeds of a specific levy applied only to property
within the limits of former Rosedale school district.
New Haven, Conn. In New Haven certain outlying districts were
taxed at a special lower rate in 1902 and 1903. The table gives the
proceeds of the lower rate.
Memphis, Tenn. Specific levies were collected in Memphis in
and
Practically all specific levies oi the general property tax are
levied under municipal enactment rather than under state law.
Their object is usually to meet local needs of a temporary nature,
hence the wide variety of such taxes reported even by cities of the
same
state.
Baltimore,

were collected in 1902. These taxes were called "lamp taxes"
and were levied upon all property in proportion to the assessed
valuation, except property in certain districts where the streets
are not lighted. The proceeds of the taxes were used to meet the
expense of street lighting.
Pittsburg, Pa.
Specific levies were collected in Pittsburg in 1902
and 1903. Of the amounts reported the greater portion represents
—
the proceeds of the taxes levied by the various school subdistricts,
which are independent of the city. The city makes an appropriation for "Central board school expenses," but levies no general
school tax separate and distinct from city taxes. In addition, a
small amount of specific levies was reported, the character of which
was not
definitely ascertained.
Milwaukee, Wis.
—Milwaukee realized $622,027 from specific levies
in 1902, divided as follows:
Forward
purposes, 1531,000; for inter-
sewerage bonds, $19,031; for sinking fund, sewerage
bonds, $28,500; joint district school taxes (sixth, eighth, and sixteenth districts), $3,496; for sewerage purposes, $40,000. The city
is divided into three sewer districts, the rate of taxation varying
in each. Further, each ward raises a tax for the use of that ward
only, the rates varying according to the requirements of each ward.
The purposes for which the §625,016 reported in 1903 was raised
est fund,
were substantially the same as in 1902.
Minneapolis,
Minn.—The
specific levies
collected in
Minneap-
1902 and 1903 are made up of special ward taxes for street
maintenance, the rates in the several wards varying according to
their respective requirements.
Kansas City, Mo.— In Kansas City the amounts reported were
collected from a specific levy of 3 mills on certain districts of the
olis in
city for
St.
Minn.—'No

The amounts reported represent the proceeds of a
levy at an additional rate upon property in 11 wards of the city.
These 11 wards comprise the more densely populated portion of
the
city.
—
Albany, K. Y. In Albany portions of the eighteenth and nineteenth wards do not have fire and police protection and are subject

upon the assessed
valuation of the second district.

a special sprinkling tax levied at the rate of three-fifths of a mill.
The
special water tax was originally imposed for fire protection
purposes before the city purchased waterworks, and was a tax upon
realty within certain limits.
Subsequently the limits were extended to include the entire area of the city, but the tax is still
imposed upon realty, and in order to keep it alive it has been applied to the waterworks bond account. The sprinkling tax, also,
is levied upon real property values only and is limited to five districts comprising about one-fourth of the area of the city.

in 1903, $43,601, $60,232, and $3,001; and Nashua in 1903 received
$12,450, $7,353, and $1,239 from the same sources.
Pennsylvania. The state insurance commissioner is required by
statute to collect from each agent of a foreign fire insurance company doing business in the state a tax of 2 per cent upon the gross
premium receipts of the preceding year. One-half of the amount
collected is paid to the treasurers of the several cities and boroughs
to be used by them as a fund for disabled firemen.
The amounts
received by the several cities in 1902 and 1903 from this source are
given in the table. The city of Reading was entitled to $1,267 in
1902, but this amount was not paid over by the state until 1903.
In addition to the taxes mentioned, Reading received $8,358 in
1902, and $6,190 in 1903, and Allentown $4,407 in 1902, from frontage taxes for maintenance of waterworks. The aggregate amount
of special property and business taxes received by all cities in the
state in 1902 was $71,562, and in 1903, $73,394.
Maine.— The city of Portland received from the state in 1902 the
sum of $38,291, and in 1903, $41,464, as its proportionate share of
the state tax on the corporate stock of railroad and telegraph companies.
Railroads are taxed under a law similar to that described

New Jersey. The only instance of special property and business

Inasmuch as poll taxes, wherever they exist, are always based
upon general state laws and are uniform in all municipalities of a
given commonwealth, the discussion which follows is arranged by
states instead of by individual cities.
Massachusetts.— In Massachusetts the laws relating to poll taxes
are more or less involved and are variously interpreted by the local
officials.
In practice the tax is a source of revenue for the local

not collected for the benefit of the schools. (2) In
districts the occupation tax, if less than $1 for any person, is increased to that sum, but if it be $1 or more it is collected
as levied.
(3) In certain other districts the dollar per head is
added to the regular occupation tax, treating the law as authorizing an additional tax for schools of $1 for each male inhabitant.
No separate record is anywhere kept of the amount of poll or occupation taxes collected. The figures given in Table 24 are in a few
cases the result of careful compilation from the tax warrant register, and in others represent estimates of local officials.
In seven
cities no poll taxes for municipal purposes were reported by the
agents for 1902. It is very probable that such taxes were collected,
to a limited extent at least, in all of these cities and included with
general property taxes.
New .Jersey. Of the ten cities in New Jersey containing over
25,000 inhabitants, the agents of the Census secured reports of poll
taxes in 1902 and 1903 from seven. The state law permits a poll
tax not to exceed $1 per adult male to be levied each year for local
purposes. The figures of Table 24 show that only two of the ten
cities, Newark and Elizabeth, secured from this tax all the income
that might reasonably be expected therefrom, and that in the other
cities either little use was made of this source of revenue, or else the
