DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR, Census Office, SIE. Washington, D. C., September 1,1893. I have the honor to transmit the following special report upon the Vital Statistics of the District of Columbia and of Baltimore, Maryland, by Dr. John S. Billings, United States army, expert special agent of the Census Office. The statistics and illustrations presented have been prepared by Mr. William A. King, chief of the division of vital statistics. In dealing with this subject as one of the census inquiries it will be apparent that conclusions based upon the number of deaths occurring in but 1 year out of 10 may be erroneous, owing to peculiar conditions existing during the census year. To obviate this source of error and to add to the scientific value of the work it has been undertaken at the present census, for the first time, to present these statistics for some of the principal cities for a series of years ending May 31, 1890, the termination of the regular census year, and this report covers the record of deaths occurring in the District of Columbia and Baltimore during the 6 years ending on the date specified above. The source of information in these localities was the registration records of the local boards of health containing the certificates of death furnished by the attending physicians under a compulsory system of registration, and is therefore much more accurate as to the number and more reliable as to the data than any report based upon returns of the census enumerators could be. The labor of preparing these statistics, which even ordinarily is most extensive, owing to the amount of detail arising from the combinations of facts to be presented in relation to each other, has been greatly enhanced by the necessity of reducing population figures to represent the mean of the time covered by the deaths in order to obtain average annual death rates in relation to the living population, but the results more than justify the extraordinary labor involved. This report will be followed by similar reports relating to New York and Brooklyn, and Boston and Philadelphia, as now contemplated. Very respectfully, JAMES H. WARDLE, Acting Superintendent of Census. The Secretary of the Interior. VITAL STATISTICS or THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BALTIMORE, MARYLAND COVERING A PERIOD OF SIX YEARS ENDING MAY 31, 1890. The following constitutes a special report, with a series of tables and illustrations, relating to the vital statistics of the District of Columbia and the cities of Washington, District of Columbia, and Baltimore, Maryland, for the period of 6 years ending May 31,1890. The tables have been prepared under the direction of Mr. William A. King, chief of the division of vital statistics of the Eleventh Census. These two cities are reported together because the results of the comparison of their vital statistics are interesting, owing both to certain similarities and to certain differences in the circumstances which are likely to affect the health of their respective populations. Each is subject to nearly the same general climatic conditions, has a comparatively large colored population, presents considerable differences in surface levels in different districts, and has an abundant and good general water supply. On the other hand Washington is a sewered city and Baltimore is not, and there are considerable differences in the occupations of the majority of the inhabitants of the two places. The following table gives certain data for comparison between the cities of Baltimore and Washington. The figures relate to June 1, 1890. Table 1. SUBJECT. Baltimore. "Washington. SUBJECT. Baltimore.

It will be seen from this table that Washington is the more densely populated of the two cities, but that Baltimore has the greater average number of persons to a dwelling; that the amount of open space in the shape of streets and parks is proportionately greater in Washington, which has also a greater capacity of water supply, while Baltimore has relatively the greater proportion of saloons. A greater proportion of the business population of Baltimore lives outside the city limits than is the case for Washington. It should be understood that it is impossible to give accurate and detailed mortality statistics covering a series of years and strictly comparable for the two cities, since the areas both of each city and of its smaller subdivisions did not remain unchanged from 1880 to 1890, and also because population details at each census were not available for every subdivision, so that the mean population for the period could not be accurately calculated in the desirable details. The method used for determining the population to be used in computing rates will be stated in a future report. The difficulties referred to, however, do not materially affect the value of the statistics for comparative purposes. The returns of deaths from which these statistics have been made up were secured from the local registration records of the two cities based upon physicians’ certificates of deaths, showing in most cases the locality (street and house number) where the death occurred, and in order to locate the deaths in the proper sanitary subdivision complete street schedules were prepared showing in which subdivision each house in the city was located. In this manner all deaths located by the physicians were located in the proper subdivisions without regard to changes in numbering or in ward lines. The number of deaths for which the locality could not be ascertained, otherwise the “Unlocated7’, were in the compilation of certain of the rate tables distributed among the sanitary subdivisions in proportion to those of which the proper locality was known. This distribution of the unlocated is included in most of the tables giving rates for each sanitary district. Wherever practicable all unknown details concerning either population or deaths, such as unknown ages and unknown nativities, have been eliminated by distributing these factors among the other similar items proportionately in the preparation of rates. For this reason various details of population and deaths may appear not to agree with other statements of such details in which this distribution has not been made. In both Baltimore and the District of Columbia there is a considerable area of suburban territory, and since the returns for this portion of Baltimore (wards 21 and 22) were not obtainable for the whole 6 years, average annual rates based upon mean population can only be stated for the first 20 wards of that city, which will, wherever possible, be designated as “ Baltimore city”. Being, then, under the necessity of excluding the suburban portion of Baltimore in certain cases, the same distinction will be maintained in the District of Columbia in certain of the tables by omitting sanitary districts 28 and 29, which correspond in general character to the omitted wards of Baltimore, and where this is done the figures will be given as for “ Washington” (which includes Georgetown). Where the terms “ Baltimore” and “ District of Columbia ” are used, these will be understood to cover the whole area in each case. The population figures used in preparing these statistics are the results of two counts made in advance of the regular tabulation of population statistics. The figures stated for all details under 5 years of age are based on the first count and those for all details above 5 years on the second count. In some cases combinations of these two population counts have been necessary to give extended details of age. There are some slight differences between these counts in the numbers of white and colored, and also in the totals of different sanitary districts, but these are unimportant, and the slight discrepancies which may appear to exist in figures presented in different details are not sufficient to affect the rates, and therefore no attempt has been made to reconcile them. This fact, and the statement made above as to the distribution of the “Unknown” items, both for population and deaths, should be borne in mind in making comparisons. Population figures for wards of Baltimore, as contained in the preliminary population bulletins of this office, relate to the present wards and not to those treated in this report. The mean population of the District of Columbia for the 6 year period was 212,900 and that of Baltimore city was 375,034, both being computed by the usual geometrical progression formula from the population returns of the censuses of 1880 and 1890. Where wards 21 and 22 of Baltimore are mentioned the population figures represent the population on June 1, 1889, the rates being the average for 2 years. During the period of 0 years in question the average annual death rate in the District of Columbia was 23.41 and in Baltimore city 22.39 per 1,000 of mean population, but the excess of mortality in the District of Columbia occurred entirely among the colored population, and the mortality of the whites was greater in Baltimore city than it was in the District of Columbia, the figures being for the District of Columbia: whites, 18.55; colored, 33,25, and for Baltimore city: whites, 20.41; colored, 32.60; not including stillbirths. A comparison of these death rates with those of some other southern cities having a considerable proportion of colored population is shown in the table on the following page, which, however, gives the figures for the census year only and not for a period of 6 years, and includes stillbirths among the deaths.

The aggregate death rate has, upon the whole, been diminishing in both Baltimore and the District of Columbia during recent years. In Baltimore during the 10 years from 1850 to 1859 the average annual death rate was 2G.08 per thousand of population. For the next 10 years, 1860 to 1869, it was 22.79 j from 1870 to 1879 it was 25.10, and for the period of 1880 to 1889 it was 22.86 _ We have no trustworthy data as to death rates in the District of Columbia prior to 1875. The following table and the diagram on page 4 show the variations in the death rates of the two places for the 15 years ending with 1890. It will be seen that the lowering of the death rate was more uniform and progressive in the District of Columbia than in Baltimore from 1875 to 1883, and this may be connected with the fact that there were during this period more improvements in drainage, sewerage, paving, etc., going on in the former than in the latter place. Since 1883 the death rate of the District of Columbia has been above that of Baltimore. Table 3 shows for Baltimore and the District of Columbia the death rates per 1,000 of population for each year from 1875 to 1890, stillbirths being excluded. Table 3. 1 YE AES. DEATH BATES PEE 1,000.

The number of deaths in each year, upon which the preceding table and the following diagram are based, were taken from the annual reports of the boards of health. The mean population for each year was calculated by the geometrical progression formula from the figures of the censuses of 1870, 1880, and 1890. DIAGRAM SHOWING THE COMPARATIVE DEATH RATE PER 1,000 OF POPULATION IN THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BALTIMORE FROM 1875 TO 1890. Mere gross death rates, however, give us little useful information; we wish to know the death rates for different ages and in different parts of a city, and their causes. On comparing the accompanying maps of the District of Columbia and of Baltimore, which maps show by depth of shading the relative mortality of the white and of the colored population in the different districts, it will be seen that there are marked differences not only in the death rates in different localities in the same map but in the same localities for the white and for the colored. This is also shown in the table on the following page.

It is a matter of great interest to the residents in these districts, to the health authorities of the city, to the owners of real estate, and to the life insurance companies and business men generally that the causes of these great differences in death rates should be determined as far as possible, in order that wise action may be taken to reduce the number of those deaths which are due to preventable causes. 6 VITAL STATISTICS. To determine the causes of differences in the death rates of two cities, or of different parts of the same city, is a difficult matter, for these causes may be many and various. The statistical method of research for this purpose is an imperfect one, partly because the data are imperfect and more or less inaccurate, partly because it can not take into account temporary and local conditions. It should be clearly understood, therefore, that the differences in death rates of different wards and districts shown in this report do not prove that those districts having the highest death rates were necessarily the most unhealthy, nor do they furnish satisfactory indications as to the causes of the differences; they merely indicate the localities where it is probable that special causes of sickness and death existed, and may thus furnish the foundation for a special investigation of such localities by persons familiar with their topography and peculiarities; in short, they should be considered as statements of problems rather than as answers to them. Among the remote or predisposing causes of sickness and death which should be taken into account in attempting to ascertain whether a particular locality is healthy or unhealthy may be named race, age, sex, and occupation; and the variations in death rates connected with these circumstances may be to a considerable extent ascertained by statistics and serve as a basis for special inquiries into the more immediate causes, such as the poverty and ignorance of the people, the dampness or pollution of the soil, the water supply, house drainage and sewage disposal, and the presence of collections of filth or other special dangers to health and life, all of which are matters to be ascertained by the local authorities. Taking first the influence of race, the question arises, are tin#marked differences in the mortality of the white and colored, indicated in the preceding table, due to differences in the physical structure of the two raees, giving rise to special liability to, or special mortality from, certain forms of disease, or are they due to differences in the character and place of residence, the food, occupations, or habits and inodes of life ? As the death rates of infants and young children and of old people are much higher than those of persons between 15 and 45 years of age, a comparatively high death rate in a city or any particular district may be due mainly or entirely to the fact that that city or district contains a relatively large proportion of children or of old persons ; hence it is important to study the death rates by groups of ages. Table 5 gives the data for a comparison of the death rates of Baltimore and the District of Columbia for the year ending May 31, 1890, with broad distinctions of ages. Table 5. AGE AND COLOR.

For example, the death rate of the colored population from 15 to 45 years of age was 2.21 per 1,000 greater in the District of Columbia than it was in Baltimore, while for whites of the same ages it was only 0.30 per 1,000 greater in the District. Table 6 shows for the District of Columbia and for Baltimore the average annual death rates during the 6 year period in the different districts, with distinction of color and of children under 5 years of age, the still- births being excluded.

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BALTIMORE. 9 An examination of this table and of the appended maps, which show for the two cities by depth of shade the relative mortality of the white and of the colored children under 5 years of age, will reveal some important facts. In the first place, it is evident that the higher mortality of the colored race is mainly due to the excessively high death rate among the young children of that race. In the District of Columbia the average annual death rate among the colored children under 5 years of age was 187.20 and in Baltimore city it was 197.62, while among the whites in the District of Columbia it was 74.92 and in Baltimore city 88.22. Among the whites there is also a perceptible relation between mortality and race differences. Thus in the native born whites of native born parents in the District of Columbia the average annual death rate during the 0 years was 16.48, while in those having one or- both parents of foreign birth it was 18,39 per thousand. In children under 5 years it was, for those of native born parents, 72.53, and for those having one or both parents foreign born, 86,23. In Baltimore the system of registration of deaths does not require the statement of the birthplace of the parents but merely the birthplace of the person, which is a matter of much less importance from the point of view of vital statistics. During the census year the death rates of children under 5 years of age were: in Charleston, South Carolina, for whites, 92.34, for colored, 227.79; in Richmond, Virginia, for whites, 75.27, for colored, 222.58; in Savannah, Georgia, for whites, 83.93, for colored, 166.20; in Mobile, Alabama, for whites, 73.75, for colored, 190.58. But this excessively high death rate among the colored children does not seem to be a necessary thing; it is not due simply to the fact that they are colored, because it varies greatly in different localities, ranging in Washington from 466.67 in district 18 to 143.85 in district 8, and in Baltimore from 642,86 in district A of ward 2 to 70.23 in district B of ward 12. So also during the census year the death rates of colored children under 5 years of age were: in Atlanta, Georgia, 163.50; in Chattanooga, Tennessee, 164.83; in Galveston, Texas, 104.23; in Memphis, Tennessee, 116.44; in Montgomery, Alabama, 57.44; in Nashville, Tennessee, 103.07; in New Orleans, Louisiana, 118.17; in Raleigh, North Carolina, 109.35, which rates may be compared with those given for Charleston, Richmond, Savannah, and Mobile. Before proceeding further in this discussion it may be well to caution those who are not familiar with statistical methods and statistical fallacies that all the death rates or other ratios given must be considered in connection with the actual numbers from which they are derived, because in many cases it will be found that extraordinary and unusual ratios are due merely to the smallness of the data from which they have been calculated. For example, in the preceding table in district B of ward 2 in Baltimore the death rate of the colored population over 5 years of age is given as 1,222.22 per 1,000; that is, as being greater than the mean population of this class; but this mean population was only 3 and the total number of deaths of this class during the 6 years was 22, a large proportion of the deaths in this district being due to drowning; hence this ratio is a defective one, and it is quoted as a striking example of the fallacy referred to. It is also to be noted that the death rates for children under 5 years of age are probably given as greater than they really were, owing to the fact that the population under 5 years of age is probably stated as less than it really was, partly because all the infants were not counted, partly because some of those between 4 and 5 years old were reported as 5 years old. The errors thus arising appear to be about the same in character and amount in the population data for the two cities, and hence the death rates are comparable, although not absolutely correct. It is also to be remembered that if each death is accredited to the locality in which it occurred, those districts containing hospitals will be credited with more than their fair share of deaths and the others with correspondingly less. To avoid this source of fallacy as far as possible, all deaths occurring in hospitals have been credited to the district from which the person was sent to the hospital, where this could be ascertained, and those deaths which could not be thus referred to a particular district have been distributed proportionately among the different districts. The districts here referred to are certain divisions of the area of each city made for the purpose of this report each district presenting some peculiarity in location, altitude, density, or character of population. The political divisions of the cities, such as police districts or wards, were found to be of little use as units of area for comparisons of death rates of different localities. The area of the District of Columbia was divided into 29 such districts, without any reference to wards or police districts, but in Baltimore the ward areas were used as a basis and the districts were made within the wards, being lettered A, B, etc., the total number of districts being 52. The boundaries of these districts are shown on the maps appended, and brief descriptions of the peculiarities of each district as to topography, population, and mortality are also given hereafter. It will be seen that there are great differences in the death rates of these districts; that in each city the mortality has been two or three times greater in some localities than in others; that the greatest variations in the death rates occur among the children under 5 years of age, and that these variations correspond in the main with the variations in aggregate death rates. It appears also that, as a rule, the death rate has been highest in the low lying districts, those nearest the streams or harbor and having the highest level of subsoil water. 10 VITAL STATISTICS. ALTITUDE. The following tables show the relations between altitude and death rates. Table 8 shows for the District of Columbia the average altitude of the different districts and their average annual death rates, exclusive of stillborn, during the 6 year period per 1,000 of mean population, with distinction of color and of those under 5 years of age; also the average annual death rates per 100,000 of mean population due to certain specified causes.

Thus, in Baltimore city in those districts under 25 feet in altitude the average annual death rate was 26.13, in those between 25 and 50 feet in altitude it was 23.69, from 50 to 75 it was 23.48, from 75 to 100 it was 19.79, and 100 and over it was 19.92. In Washington the death rate was 27.61 in the localities under 25 feet in altitude and 21.86 in those 100 feet high and upward. Tables 8 and 9 also show the relations of altitude to the three forms of disease which are usually connected with defective drainage, namely, malarial fever, consumption, and diarrheal diseases, the death rates from each of these being greater in the districts of lower altitude. • For example, in Baltimore in those localities below 25 feet in altitude the death rate per 100,000 of population was from diarrheal diseases 385.61, while in the districts 100 feet and upward in altitude the rates were: malarial fever, 30.09; consumption, 293.12, and diarrheal diseases, 208.39. DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BALTIMORE. DENSITY OF POPULATION. The effects of density of population upon the death rates in Baltimore and the District of Columbia are not manifest, being overridden by the effects of altitude and of character of population, as will be seen by the following tables. Table 11 shows for the District of Columbia the area and population and the average annual death rates, with distinction of color, by sanitary districts and groups of sanitary districts according to density of population.

Was this due to a really greater proportionate number of deaths among infants during the last census year or to a more defective enumeration of the population under 1 year of age in the last census % Examination of the population figures shows that the proportion of children under 1 year of age and under 5 years of age reported as living at the end of the census year was less in 1890 than in 1880. Table 14 shows the number and Table 15 shows the proportion of the population at these ages in 100,000 of all ages for Baltimore and for the District of Columbia according to the censuses of 1890 and 1880, with distinction of color and sex.

In the District of Columbia the total population increased 52,768 in the 10 years, while the number of infants under 1 year of age actually diminished 127 during the same period. This decrease in the District of Columbia was wholly among the colored, and in Baltimore the actual decrease in the number of infants was also wholly among the colored. This decrease may have been due to a diminished birth rate or to a greater death rate among the infants in 1890 than in 1880, or to a combination of these causes. There is some reason to think that the birth rate was less in 1890 than it was in 1880, but this question will be discussed in a future report, when the data from other parts of the country are available. In both the censuses of 1880 and 1890 there were errors in the count of infants under 1 year old, as there were in previous censuses, owing in part to actual omissions and in part to the fact that children 10 and 11 months old are often reported as 1 year old, just as children 4 years and 9, 10, or 11 months old are often reported as 5 years old. The censuses of 1880 and 1890 were taken in the same manner, and the probabilities would be that the proportion of error in this direction would be about the same in each. Is the high infantile death rate in 1890 sufficient to warrant the setting aside of these probabilities'? If the proportion of infants had been the same in the District of Columbia in 1890 that it was in 1880, the number of deaths remaining as reported, the infantile death rate for 1890 would have been 230.95 per 1,000 of population under 1 instead of 307.98, while it was 277.68 in 1880. Making the same supposition for Baltimore the infantile death rate would have been 256.75 instead of 299.62. Table 16 shows for Baltimore and for the District of Columbia for each year from 1879 to 1890 the number of deaths of those under 1 year and under 5 years of age per 1,000 of total deaths, the figures being obtained from the annual reports of the boards of health.

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BALTIMORE. 17 Table 17 shows for Baltimore and for the District of Columbia the comparative number of deaths from infantile diseases in 1,000 total deaths from all causes, stillborn excluded, during the census years 1890 and 1880.

How much of this was due to a greater mortality and how much to a diminished birth rate during the year 1890 will be discussed in a future report when more extended data are available. 18 VITAL STATISTICS. MONTHS. Some data for estimating' the influence of month or season upon the death rates of Baltimore and Washington are given in the following tables. So far as temperature variations are concerned the two cities present nearly the same conditions, the chief difference being that the warm weather of spring appears to affect vegetation from one to two weeks earlier in Washington than it does in Baltimore. The hot months, that is, July and August, are those of the highest mortality in both cities, as will be seen from Tables 18 and 19. Table 18 shows for Baltimore, by months, the proportion of deaths from certain specified causes in 1,000 deaths from all causes for the 0 years ending May 31, 1890, with distinction of color.

It will be seen, for example, that in both cities diphtheria especially prevails from August to February, enteric or typhoid fever from August to December, malarial fevers in September and October, diarrheal diseases in June, July, August, and September. Suicides were most frequent in the District of Columbia in February, March, and December; in Baltimore in March, August, and December, while accidents and injuries caused the greater number of deaths in Julv and August in Baltimore and in June and July in the District of Columbia. Sunstroke was more fatal in Washington than in Baltimore. The higher death rate in the summer months is due entirely to the higher infantile death rate; the minor increase of death rates in the colder months is due maiuly to increase of the death rate among those 60 years of age and upward. The greatest variation in monthly death rates occurred among the colored in Baltimore city ranging from 2.49 in November to 4.32 in July per 1,000 of population. The effects of season in producing variations in the proportion of deaths due to certain causes are shown in Table 05, The following diagrams give a graphic representation of the death rates due to diphtheria, diarrheal diseases, and typhoid fever in the District of Columbia and Baltimore during the 6 years, by months, per 1,000 deaths from all causes in each month. 20 VITAL STATISTICS.

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BALTIMORE. 23 CONJUGAL CONDITION. In the population over 15 years of age the proportion of single persons is greater in the District of Columbia than in Baltimore, and this is true for each sex of both the white and the colored. The proportion of widowed is also greater in the District of Columbia than in Baltimore for white males and females and for colored females. Of white males 15 years of age and upward almost exactly half of those li ving in the District of Columbia were married at the date of taking the census, while in Baltimore the proportion was 541.50 per 1,000. For the white females 15 years of age and upward the proportion of the married was in Baltimore 491,52 and in the District of Columbia 462.05 per 1,000. The proportion of married was greater among the colored males than among the white males in each city, but for those 45 years of age and upward the proportion of married males in Baltimore was greater among the whites (799.32) than among the colored (772.34). The proportion of widows is greater in the District of Columbia than in Baltimore, except among the colored 45 years of age and upward, of which one-half the women in each city were widows, being 521.21 per 1,000 in Baltimore and 505.97 in the District of Columbia. These and other points for comparison are shown in Table 20. Table 20 shows for Baltimore and the District of Columbia the number of single, married, and widowed in each 1,000 of population, with distinction of sex, color, and certain age periods. Table 20.

For males between the ages of 15 and 45 the death rate was greater among the single than among the married, as is shown by Table 22. Table 22. CONJUGAL CONDITION. 1 DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. BALTIMORE.

For females between the ages of 15 and 45 the death rate is greater among the married than among the single, as shown by Table 23, this being due to the perils of childbirth. Table 23.

At ages above 45 years the excess of the death rate among the colored becomes less, except for the single males. Table 25 shows the differences in death rates in the District of Columbia between the whites of American mothers, the colored, and those of Irish and German descent, with distinction of conjugal condition and two age groups, to which has been added, for purposes of comparison, the corresponding death rates for Prussia, Belgium, and Bavaria. 15 TO 45 YEARS OF AGE. 45 YEARS OF AGE AND OVER. 0 LOCALITIES AND BIRTHPLACES.

From this it appears that in general the death rates of white persons whose mothers were of American birth •were less than those of persons of Irish or German descent, and less than those in the foreign countries named. The death rates of Irish adults were greater than those of Germans, except for unmarried females over 45 years of age. Among the married females from 15 to 45 years of age the death rate of those of Irish descent was 19.81; of American descent, 7.53; of German descent, 6,50; and of the colored, 16.72. The death rates of those of Irish descent approximate throughout those of the colored race. DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BALTIMORE. OCCUPATIONS. The influence of occupation is a special predisposing cause of sickness and death which should be taken into' account, when it is possible to do so, in comparing’ the death rates of different localities. As the population data are not yet compiled by occupations it is not possible to give death rates based upon the number of persons engaged in each specified occupation at this time. This will be covered in greater detail in the census report upon vital statistics in general. Table 26 shows the number of deaths of those 15 years of age and over, reported as due to certain causes, in 1,000 deaths among males of corresponding age who were engaged in the specified occupations.

The differences in rates for the two cities indicated by the above tables are for the most part within the limits of the probable error due to the smallness of the figures under the individual heads. In each city consumption causes one-fourth of all the deaths among males having specified occupations and more than one-fourth among females. The proportion of deaths from this cause in males was. as usual, very high among compositors and printers, and marble and stone cutters, but in Baltimore it was highest among barbers and in the District of Columbia among plumbers and gas and steam fitters. In females it was highest among accountants, school teachers, and dressmakers, and lowest among nurses and midwives. Typhoid fever caused a greater proportion of deaths among mechanics and laboring men than it did among the professional class. Among females it is curious that the proportion of deaths from this cause should have been below the average in laundresses and nurses, as it is in plumbers among males. DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BALTIMORE. 27 CAUSES OF DEATH. Tables 51 and 52 show for the District of Columbia and Baltimore, by sanitary districts, the number of deaths which occurred during the C years ending May 31,1890, from certain specified causes, and Tables 53 and 54 give the corresponding average annual death rates per 100,000 of population in each district. The relation of certain causes to the death rates in certain districts will be given hereafter in the description of the several districts. Table 28 gives a comparison of the death rates from certain causes in Baltimore city and Washington for the 6 year period. Table 28. CAUSES. AVERAGE ANNUAL DEATH RATES PER 100,000 OF POPULATION.

Taking the census year only, the death rates per 1,000 of population from certain causes, with distinction of color and of certain groups of ages, are given for the two cities in Tables 29 and 30, VITAL STATISTICS. Table 29 shows for the District of Columbia the number of deaths for certain groups of ages in 100,000 of population of corresponding ages, by causes and classes of causes, during the census year ending May 31, 1890,, with distinction of color.

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BALTIMORE. 31 DIAGRAM SHOWING THE NUMBER AND PROPORTION OF DEATHS FROM DIFFERENT CAUSES IN BALTIMORE CITY DURING THE 6 YEARS ENDING MAY 31, 1890. Let ns now consider briefly a few of the more important causes of death as shown by the figures in the tables, just referred to. CONSUMPTION. During the 6 year period consumption caused 7,141 deaths in Baltimore city, or 317.35 deaths, annually per 100,000 of population. During the census year it caused 1,168 deaths, or 295.06 per 100,000, the rate being below the average. In Washington the death rates from this cause were greater; 4,393 deaths from it occurred during the 6 years, or 390.45 per 100,000 of population, and 738 deaths during the census year, or 363.59 per 100,000, being, also below the average for the 6 years. 32 VITAL STATISTICS. Table 31 shows the death rates from consumption during the census year for two groups of ages per 100,000 ©f population of those ages, with distinction of color. Table 31. LOCALITIES. DEATH RATES.

Table 32 shows the number of deaths from consumption during the census year per 100,000 of population in Baltimore and in the District of Columbia, with distinction of color, nativity, and parentage.

Tables 8 and 9 give the death rates from consumption in each sanitary district according to average altitude, from which it appears that the rates become less as the altitude of the district increases. Tables 20 and 27 show the different proportions of deaths due to consumption out of the total number of deaths in persons of certain occupations, and Tables 51 to 54 show the number of deaths due to consumption d uring the 6 years and the average annual death rates per 100,000 of population in each sanitary district in Baltimore and in the District of Columbia. The highest and the lowest rates due to this cause occurred in Baltimore city, the first mentioned being 877.19 in sanitary district B of ward 9 and the last mentioned being 98.91 in sanitary district C of ward 2, In Washington the rates from this cause varied from 220.70 in sanitary district No. 10 to 543.38 in sanitary district No. 5. PNEUMONIA. During the 6 year period pneumonia caused 3,782 deaths in Baltimore city, or 108.07 deaths annually per 100,000 of population. During the census year it caused 831 deaths, or 210.35 per 100,000, the rate being above the average for the 0 years. In Washington the death rates from this cause were greater, the number of deaths during the 0 years being 1,892, or 108.10 per 100,000 of population. For the census year the number was 430 and the death rate was 214.80 per 100,000, being also above the average for the 0 years. Table 33 shows the death rates from pneumonia during the census year for four groups of ages per 100,000 .C. SHOWING AVERAGE .ANNUAL DEATH IRATE S DUE TO MALARIA. FETE R S In different districts DURING THE SIX YEARS K XDING JUNE Ist MAP OF THE 1890 ELEVENTH CENSUS-OF THE UNITED STATES ROBERT P. PORTER, SUPERINTENDENT BALTIMORE, MARYLAND. Baltimore is situated at the bead of tide water and navigation, on the Patapsco river, 14 miles from Chesapeake bay and 170 miles from the Atlantic ocean. The site of the city is rolling, the variations in level being from 4to 420 feet above mean sea level. The soil is loam and sand underlaid by red clay, the latter celebrated for brickmakiug. The underlying rock, which rises to the surface in the northern portion of the city, is compact gneiss, very hard and close grained. Four streams traverse the city and empty into the harbor. Of these Jones and Gwynus falls are the largest, are open, and receive the drainage of that portion of the city contiguous to them. Harford and Chatsworth runs have been covered in to some extent and used as storm water drains. The land area of the city includes 29.48 square miles, or 18,867 acres, and the harbor has 2.05 square miles, or 1,312 acres. The land area only is used for all purposes of calculation herein. For the whole city the number of persons to an acre is 23.03; houses to an acre, 3.82; persons to each mile of streets and alleys, 556.97; and persons to each dwelling, 6.02. There are 780 miles of streets and alleys, and of those 459 miles, or 58.85 per cent, are paved. The water supply of Baltimore is ample and is distributed through 407 miles of mains. No record could be obtained as to the number of taps or the number of wells. Baltimore has no system of sewers. House wastes are carried into large cesspools, while the water from the kitchen and butler’s pantry pours into the gutters. Owing to the large amount of cobblestone pavement in the city nearly all this matter percolates into the soil. Where houses are without plumbing privies are used, many being surface. There are 28 miles of storm water drains in Baltimore, which are theoretically used exclusively for the removal of surface water. They vary in diameter from 4to 16 feet, the proportion over 30 inches being- -92 per cent. As the ward boundaries of the city of Baltimore have no relation to surface topography and include areas which are very irregular in form and which are very unsatisfactory for statistical purposes, certain sanitary districts within these ward lines have been outlined for the purposes of this bulletin. The ward lines of the city have been changed several times since 1880 and the apparently unequal changes in ward population between 1880 and 1890 are therefore probably due to the shifting of boundary lines more than to actual variations in the ratio of increase in different wards. Some such variations no doubt occurred, but probably not to the extent of working a decrease of population in any ward during the decade, as might be inferred from comparison of the ward figures for 1880 and 1890. There were also changes in several of the wards of the city in the month of March, 1890, when the work on these vital statistics had progressed to a considerable extent upon the ward lines prior to that date. It being- inadvisable, if not impracticable, to make changes in the work done up to that date, the changes in ward lines referred to were ignored, and the data contained in this report therefore relate to the wards as they existed prior to March, 1890. Owing to the changes referred to, the population of each ward as given at the Tenth Census could not be used to compute mean population for the ward areas as they existed March 1, 1890, upon which to base average annual death rates for the 6 years, and such rates are therefore based upon mean population for wards and sanitary districts obtained by assuming a uniform ratio of increase. In the following detailed statement concerning wards and sanitary districts, the altitude, area, number of dwellings, population and density figures given, and also the characteristics mentioned, relate to the Ist day of June, 1890, while the rates (unless otherwise specified) are the average annual rates for 6 years. The following is a brief description of the wards and districts WARD 1. This ward was in the extreme southeastern porti6n of the city. At one time two main branches of the Harford run united near the northern limit of the ward and flowing through the center entered the harbor. Total area, 595 acres; total population, 22,102, of which 21,737 were whites and 425 were colored; total number of dwellings, 3,003. There were 37.25 persons and 0.00 dwellings to each acre of total area, and 0.15 persons to each dwelling. The elevation ranged from 4 to 120 feet above mean sea level. 56 VITAL STATISTICS. Sanitary district A.—Bounded by Baltimore street, the city limits, Patapsco, Lancaster, and Burns streets, Essex, Collington, and Eastern avenues, and Ann, Gough, Durham, Pratt, and Castle streets. Area, 529 acres; population, 20,333, of which 19,913 were white and 120 were colored. The average population density was 38.14 persons to the acre. The ground rose rapidly toward the north, the lowest point being 6 and the highest 120 feet above mean sea level. This district contained mostly residences of laborers and mechanics, many of whom owned their homes. There were large iron works and two large parks in the district. The death rate for the 6 years was greater than the average among the whites and somewhat less among the colored, but the comparatively small number of the latter class may account for this. The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. Total. Under 5 years. Malarial fever. Diphtheria and croup. Diarrheal diseases. Typhoid lever. Consump- tion. White. Colored. White.

Sanitary district B.—Bounded by Canton and Essex avenues, Burns, Lancaster, and Patapsco streets, the Northwest branch of the Patapsco river, and Chester street. Area, 66 acres; population 1,829, of which 1,824 were white and 5 were colored. The average density was 27.71 persons to the acre. The elevation varied from 4to 20 feet above mean sea level. This was low land lying along the harbor, with canneries, warehouses, coal yards, and wharves of railroads and deep sea vessels at the lower extremity. The population was largely composed of longshoremen and employes of the canneries. The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: LOCALITIES. IX 1,000 OF POPULATION. IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. Total.

The colored element was so extremely small that the rates for this class have no value. In the causes of death specified diphtheria and croup and diarrheal diseases caused more and malarial fever, typhoid fever, and consumption caused less than the average number of deaths per 100,000 of population. ward 2. This ward was situated west of ward 1 and south of ward 3, its southern boundary being the upper part of the northwest harbor and Jones falls forming its western limit. Total area, 250 acres; total population, 16,813; white, 16,530; colored 313; total number of dwellings, 2,388. There were 67.37 persons and 9.55 dwellings to the acre, with 7.05 persons to each dwelling. The elevation varied from Ito 20 feet above sea level. Sanitary district A.—Bounded by Bank street, Broadway, Gough and Ann streets, Eastern, Collingtou, and Canton avenues, Chester, Alice Anna, Wolff, Lancaster, and Bond streets, and Central avenue. Area, 129 acres5 population, 10,853, of which 10,551 were white and 303 colored, giving an average of 84.13 persons to the acre. The variations in level were slight, the lowest point being 10 feet and the highest 20 feet above sea level. DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BALTIMORE. 57 The population was mostly laboring in canning establishments, and was largely composed of Polish Jews, Swedes, Norwegians, and Hungarians. There were many old houses along the southern part of the district. The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. Total. Under 5 years. Malarial fever. Diphtheria and croup. Diarrheal diseases. Typhoid fever. Consump- tion. "White. Colored. White.

For the whites the death rates were considerably greater than the average for the city during the 6 years. The death rate among white children was particularly large. Consumption and typhoid fever caused less than the average number of deaths, but the death rates due to malarial fever, diphtheria and croup, and diarrheal diseases were very high. The death rate due to measles (71.11) was also much above the average rate due to this cause. Sanitary district B.—Bounded by Canton and Central avenues, Alice Anna, Bond, Lancaster, Wolif, and Chester streets, the Northwest branch of the Patapsco river, and Jones falls. The area of the district was 96 acres and the population 3,506, 3,503 being white and 3 colored, making an average of 36.52 persons to the acre. The variations in level were slight, there being about 6 feet between the highest and lowest points. The drainage was faulty and the general sanitary condition bad. Much of this district was occupied by wharves, large warehouses, and canning establishments. The city dock occupied quite a large portion of the district into which Jones falls emptied its filth, the dock being surrounded with tenements. The dwellings were old and generally crowded, many of them being in bad condition. The population consisted mostly of the laboring class, engaged in canning establishments, and was composed largely of Polish Jews, Swedes, Norwegians, and Hungarians, with the addition of quite a large floating population ot sailors. It would be well to remember that during the berry and fruit picking season, from May to July, a large proportion of the people of this district go to the country. The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. LOCALITIES. Total.

For the whites the proportion of children under 5 years of age was quite large, but the death rate among them was nearly three times the average. The rate for the total whites was also very high, due in part to the excessive mortality among the children. Consumption alone caused less than the average number of deaths, the rates for the other causes specified being excessively high, as was also the rate for measles, which was 184.96, while the average rate for the city due to this cause was but 32.17 j>er 100,000 of population. Sanitary district 0 Bounded by Stiles, Albemarle, Pratt, and Exeter streets, Eastern, Central, and Canton avenues, and Jones falls. Area, 25 acres; population, 2,484, of which only 8 were colored, the average number of persons to the acre being 99.36. The variations of level did not exceed 16 feet between the highest and lowest points. The population comprised many Italians and Polish Jews crowded into dilapidated rookeries, hanging over the falls, which was here an open cesspool. The sanitary condition was bad. 58 VITAL STATISTICS The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: LOCALITIES.

There were no deaths from malarial fever, and the number due to diarrheal diseases, typhoid fever, and consumption were very much below the average. Diphtheria and croup combined was the only cause in which the average rate was exceeded, and in this but slightly. WARD 3. There were no special features in this ward that required subdivision. Total area of the ward, 154 acres; total population, 15,762, of which 13,737 were white and 2,025 colored. The total number of dwellings was 2,605, there being- an average of 102.35 persons and 16.92 dwellings to the acre, and 6.05 persons to each dwelling. The surface of the land rose toward the north, with a difference of 80 feet between the highest and lowest points. The inhabitants were mostly of the middle class, living in from fair to good houses. A good many Bohemians of the better class were in the southern part of the ward. The death rates in this ward as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. Total. Under 5 years.

The average annual death rate per 1,000 of mean population was somewhat higher than the average for both white and colored. Of the causes specified the rate due to malarial fever was about the same as the average per 100,000 of population, and those for diphtheria and consumption were above, while those from diarrheal diseases and typhoid fever were below the average. This ward had Jones falls for its western boundary, and lies south of ward 5, west of ward 3, and north of ward 2. It had a total area of 154 acres and a total population of 15,777,13,563 being white and 2,214 colored. The total number of dwellings was 2,410, and the average density 102.45 persons and 15.65 dwellings to each acre of area, with 6.55 persons to each dwelling. WARD 4. Sanitary district A.—Bounded by Hilleu, Exeter, Gay, Colvin, Low, East, Douglas, and Holland streets, Central avenue, May, Spring, Mullikin, Dallas, Fayette, Caroline, Baltimore, Pratt, Eden, and Gough streets, Eastern avenue, and Korth and South High streets. Area, 118 acres; population, 12,312; white, 10,299; colored, 2,013; number of persons to the acre, 104.34. The variations of level ranged from 20 to 75 feet, the upward slope being eastward. The district contained many residences, with small stores. The inhabitants were mostly of the middle class, with some colored and a few Bohemians scattered here and there. DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BALTIMORE. 59 The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OF POPULATION.

The death rate due to consumption per 100,000 of population was about the same as the average, and the rates for malarial fever, typhoid fever, diphtheria and croup, and diarrheal diseases were all well below the average. Sanitary district B.—Bounded by Hillen, JSTorth and South High, Pratt, Albemarle, and Stiles streets, and Jones falls. Area, 30 acres, with a population of 3,465, of which 3,204 were white and 201 colored, giving an average of 90.25 persons to the acre. The variations in level were slight, and the district received the wash of most of the streets in the fifth ward. This district was between Jones falls and district A, and did not go back from the falls, which was here an open, foul ditch for more than 2 squares. Most of the buildings along the falls were used as tenements, with here and there a manufacturing establishment sandwiched. The people were mostly Polish Jews, with some Bohemians of the lower class. The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. l IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. LOCALITIES. Total.

For the whites, both the total rate and the rate for those under 5 years of age were considerably above the average. Malarial fever caused about the average number of deaths; diphtheria and croup and typhoid fever less than the average number, while the number due to diarrheal diseases and consumption was considerably above the average. WARD 5. This ward was very irregular in shape and bordered on the third, fourth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth wards. Total area, 141 acres; total population, 15,809; white, 12,551; colored, 3,258; total number of dwellings, 2,791; density, 112.12 persons and 19.79 dwellings to the acre, and 5,60 persons to each dwelling. The land rose rather abruptly from 10 feet, the lowest point at Jones falls, to 110 feet, the highest point in the extreme eastern part of the ward. Sanitary district A.—Bounded by Monument, Aisquith, and Jefferson streets, Central avenue, Holland, Douglas, East, Low, Colvin, Gay, Exeter, and Hillen streets, Jones falls, and Foundry, Front, and Forrest streets. Area, 64 acres; population, 0,865, 5,258 white and 1,007 colored, there being an average of 107.27 persons to the acre. The variations in level were 35 feet, the land rising toward the northward with abrupt changes. Only a small portion of this district, about one square, touched Jones falls, here a little clear. The inhabit- ants were mostly railroad men, railroad employes, and mechanics. A railroad depot with its freight yards, fine parish schools, several asylums, and one large market occupied considerable space. 60 VITAL STATISTICS.

Malarial fever caused about the average number of deaths, diphtheria and croup and typhoid fever less, while the number due to diarrheal diseases and consumption was considerably above the average, the rate from consumption being particularly high. Sanitary district B.—Bounded by Eager, Somerset, Madison, Wolff, and Monument streets, Broadway, and McElderry, Eden, Jefferson, Aisquith, and Ensor streets. Area, 77 acres; population, 8,944, of which 7,293 were white and 1,651 were colored; density, 116.16 persons to the acre. The altitude ranged from 25 to 110 feet above mean sea level, with many deep ravines that have been filled to grade. The district was occupied by residences of the middle class, many of modern construction. A large amount of building had been going on in the district and much of it was made land that had not only not had time to settle but was largely mixed with ashes and garbage. Some of these fills were over 20 feet in depth. The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: IN 1,000 OF POPULATION.

This was one of the largest wards in the city, and before annexation was the extreme northern ward. Its eastern edge was the city limits, with the twenty-second ward on the north, the first and third on the south, and the third, fifth, and seventh on the west. Total area, 1,024 acres; total population, 26,322, of which 22,717 were white and 3,605 were colored; total number of dwellings, 4,631. This gave an average density of 25.71 persons and 4.52 dwellings to each acre, and 5.68 persons to each dwelling. The variations in altitude were from 40 to 140 feet above sea level, the original topography including many deep ravines running from the east branch of Harford run that traversed the center of the ward from north to south. Much of the land was vacant and there were many brickyards and pipe works in the northern part. WARD 6. Sanitary district A.—Bounded by North avenue, the eastern city limits, and Monument, Wolff, Preston, and Washington streets. Area, 680 acres; population, 6,933; white, 6,456; colored, 477; average number of persons to each acre of area, 10.20. The variations in level ranged from 60 to 140 feet. This district contained much vacant land, two large cemeteries, the German Schuetzen park, several large brickyards and terra cotta works, and the old potter’s field of Baltimore. The authorities seem to have adopted the plan of raising the grade of potter’s field by filling rather than going to the expense of first removing the bodies buried there. The inhabitants were mostly of the laboring class, dependent on the several large works. Surface of the ground broken. DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BALTIMORE. 61 Tlie death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: LOCALITIES. IN 1.000 OF POPULATION.

Among the whites the death rates both total and for those under 5 years of age were less than they were for the city. Malarial fever, diarrheal diseases, and consumption all caused less than the average number of deaths, the rate for the last named being very low. For the other causes specified the rates were about the average. Sanitary district B,—Bounded by Monument street, the eastern city limits, and Baltimore and Chester streets. Area, 231 acres, with a population of 5,840, there being 5,050 white and 790 colored. The average density was 25.31 persons to the acre. The variations in level, which were quite abrupt, ranged from 20 to 120 feet above sea level. This district had much vacant land, some streets were not yet fully opened, and one cemetery was in the eastern portion. The western branch of the Harford run traversed the center of the district, while its eastern branch cut through the southeastern corner. The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. LOCALITIES. Total.

The average rates due to all of the causes specified were well under the average excepting that for diarrheal diseases, which was above the average. Sanitary district C.—Bounded by McElderry, Broadway, Monument, Chester, Baltimore, Wolff, Fayette Mullikiu, and Bethel streets. Area, 80 acres; population, 9,822; white, 8,591, and colored, 1,231; average density, 114.21 persons to the acre. The ground was high, the lowest point being 80 and the highest 120 feet above mean sea level. This district was largely resident, with quite a large colored settlement in the western end, most of the houses being good. The location of the Johns Hopkins hospital in the district has given an impetus to the building of a better grade of residences toward the east. The vacant land was being rapidly improved, but most of this new building was on made land that not only had not had time to settle but was largely mixed with garbage and ashes. The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows; LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. Total.

VITAL STATISTICS. 62 Malarial fever, diarrheal diseases, and consumption caused less and diphtheria and croup and typhoid fever caused more than the average number of deaths. Sanitary district D.—Bounded by Jefferson, Eden, McElderry, Bethel, Mullikin, Spring, and May streets, and Central avenue. Area, 27 acres, with a population of 3,721, of which 2,614 were white and 1,107 were colored; the average density, 137.81 persons to the acre. The ground was high, with abrupt changes of level, the variations being- -65 feet between the highest and lowest points. This district was mostly resident, houses medium, some small stores, and a large negro population, mostly in alleys. The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. Total.

For malarial fever, diphtheria and croup, and diarrheal diseases the rates were well below the average, while typhoid fever and consumption caused more than the usual number of deaths. WARD 7. This ward was located in the northeastern part of the city, north of the fifth ward, south of the twenty-second, west of the sixth, and east of the eighth, and covered an area of 326 acres. Total population of the ward, 25,083; white, 23,825; colored, 1,258; total number of dwellings, 4,386; average density, 76.94 persons and 13.45 dwellings to the acre, with 5.72 persons to each dwelling. The ground was high, the lowest point being 60 and the highest 100 feet above mean sea level, with changes between the extremes often occurring within a distance of 3 blocks. Sanitary district A.—Bounded by North avenue, Washington, Preston, Wolff, Eager, Bond, Madison, Somerset, Ensor, Chase, Valley, Hoffman, and Eden streets, and Harford avenue. Area, 296 acres, or 91 per cent of the total area of the ward; population, 20,737, of which 19,986 were white and 751 colored, giving an average density of 70.06 persons to the acre. The extremes in level were 40 feet. This district contained some vacant land, which was being rapidly improved with very fair houses. As much of the land in the district was below street grades, the new buildings were in many cases placed on the filled land, which not only had not had time to settle but was largely mixed with ashes and garbage. Besidents were mostly of the middle class, living in small houses. Laborers lived north of the railroad track. The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. IN 100,000 OP POPULATION. Total.

For the whites the average annual rates were considerably below the general rate. causes, diarrheal diseases and consumption being particularly so. All of the causes of death specified were considerably below the average in the number of deaths due to such DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BALTIMORE. 63 Area, 30 acres; population, 4,346; white, 3,839; colored, 507; average density, 144.87 persons to the acre. The variations in level did not exceed 20 feet. Sanitary district B.—Bounded by Eager, Wolff, Madison, and Bond streets. The district was quite well built up, the negro population being in alley houses. There had been some deep fills here, old dumps for ashes and garbage, on which houses had been built before the new ground had time to settle. The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. 1 IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. Total.

The proportion of colored population was too small to render the rates for this class of any value. Typhoid fever caused slightly less than the average number of deaths, while the rates due to malarial fever, diphtheria and croup, diarrheal diseases, and consumption were all slightly above the average. The average annual rate due to scarlet fever (32.28) was exceptionally high in this district, but the actual number of deaths from this cause was not large. WARD 8. This ward occupied the north central portion of the city and was divided nearly in half by Jones falls, which was here fairly clear. The total area of the ward was 480 acres, with a total population of 24,688, of which 20,752 were white and 3,936 were colored. The total number of dwellings was 3,911, and the average density of the ward 51,43 persons and 8.15 dwellings to the acre, with an average of 6.31 persons to each dwelling. The variations in level were abrupt, covering from 20 to 140 feet above mean sea level. Sanitary district A.—Bounded by North and Harford avenues, and Eden, Hoffman, Lanvale, Hunter, and Cathedral streets. Area, 211 acres; population, 7,177, there being 6,479 white and 698 colored; average density, 34.01 persons to the acre. The variations in level were extreme, the lowest point being 20 and the highest 140 feet above mean sea level. This was mainly a residential district, with a fine class of buildings in the western part and some vacant ground in the eastern. Greenmount cemetery, one of the oldest and largest in the city, was entirely within this district. Jones falls touched the western edge. The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OP POPULATION. IN 100,000 OP POPULATION. Total.

For the whites the rates were much below the average. This was also true of all the causes of deaths specified. The rate due to consumption was about half of the average rate for the city, and for diarrheal diseases it was about two-thirds of the usual rate. Sanitary district B.—Bounded by Hoffman, Valley, and Chase streets, Harford avenue, Ensor and Monument streets, Greenmount avenue, and Eager and Hunter streets. Area, 103 acres; population, 8,608; white, 8,017; colored, 591; average number of persons to the acre, 83.57. The elevation varied from 20 to 100 feet above mean sea level, with abrupt changes as one receded from the falls. 64 VITAL STATISTICS. The eastern part of this district was mainly occupied by people of moderate means. There was much vacant ground in the northern part and along Jones falls, which runs through the western part of the district, with here and there washouts and deep ravines. The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. LOCALITIES. Total.

All of the diseases specified caused less than the average number of deaths, excepting consumption, for which the death rate was slightly greater than usual. Sanitary district O.—Bounded by Holfman, Hunter, Eager, Cathedral, and Richmond streets, Linden avenue, and Preston street. Area, 79 acres, with a population of 4,800, of which 3,057 were white and 1,743 were colored, giving an average density of 00.76 persons to the acre. The extremes of altitude ranged from 40 to 100 feet above sea level, the ground attaining its highest point at Biddle street, from whence it sloped rapidly to the falls on the north. South of Hoffman street, west of Hunter street, north of the eleventh ward boundaries, and east of the twelfth ward lines this was mainly a residential district, with some of the finest dwellings in the city. There was much made ground, some of the fills being over 30 feet; there was also quite a colored population in alleys in the western part. The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. LOCALITIES. Total.

The proportion of children under 5 years of age was exceptionally small and the mortality of children of both races was particularly low. The number of deaths due to each of the causes specified was much below the average. Sanitary district D.—Bounded by Lanvale, Hunter, Hoffman, and Cathedral streets Area, 40 acres; population, 475; white, 377; colored, 98; average number of persons to the acre, 10.33. The variations in altitude ranged from 40 to 100 feet above sea level. This district was mainly occupied by the Union depot and the tracks entering and leaving it. Jones falls flowed through the center of the district, the land rising rapidly from the falls, the grade being about the same on both sides. The population of this district was too small to permit reliable deductions to be made from the death rates, and they are therefore omitted. Sanitary district E.—Bounded by Eager street, Greenmount avenue, Monument, Forrest, Front, and Foundry streets, and Jones falls. The area of the district was 41 acres, and it contained a population of 3,028, of which 2,822 were white and 806 were colored, there being an average of 88.49 persons to the acre. The elevation varied from 20 to 75 feet above sea level, the surface rising rapidly from the falls. This district comprised the southern extremity of the ward, and was mainly occupied by the penitentiary and jail, with their grounds, and the network of railroad tracks along Jones falls. Outside of the inmates of the penal institutions the inhabitants were mostly of the laboring class. DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BALTIMORE. 65 The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows; LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OF POPULATION.

The number of deaths due to the causes specified were much below the average, excepting consumption, in which the number was very close to the usual rate for this cause. The rate due to typhoid fever was remarkably low in this district. The colored population was small, and the rates for this class are omitted. WARD 9. The total area of this ward was 330 acres; the total population 12,360, of which 9,753 were white and 2,607 were colored; the total number of dwellings, 1,663. There was an average density of 37.45 persons and 5.04 dwellings to the acre, with 7.43 persons to each dwelling. The variations in altitude were from tide water to 100 feet above, the surface rising toward the northeast corner, both from the basin on the south and Jones falls on the east. This was practically the center ward of the city and included all phases of social conditions. Sanitary district A.—Bounded by Center, North, Franklin, Davis, Saratoga, Gay, Frederick, Pratt, Eutaw, and Fayette streets, and Park avenue. The area of this district was 219 acres, and it contained a population of 7,628, of which 5,758 were white and 1,870 were colored, there being an average of 34.83 persons to the acre. The variations in level ranged from 10 to 100 feet above tide water, the ground rising from Pratt street to Pleasant and then dipping to Center street, with an eastern dip toward Jones falls nearly the whole length of Charles street. This district comprised the principal business part of Baltimore, the city and government buildings being located therein. There was a fair class of trading houses in the northwestern part. The death rates for this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows; 0 LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OF POPULATION IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. Total.

The number of children under 5 years of age was only about half the usual proportion for each race, and considering which the rates for this class were very high. Diphtheria and croup, diarrheal diseases, and consumption caused more than the average number of deaths, malarial fever considerably, and typhoid fever slightly less than the average number from these causes. Sanitary district B.—Bounded by Pratt street, Jones falls, and the Basin. Area, 46 acres, with a population of 160, of which 155 were white and 5 were colored. The population density was 3.48 persons to the acre. This district was flat and low, and was composed mainly of docks and wharves, with small warehouses. The fish and market vessels landed here, and their refuse, combined with the street wash from the larger part of the ninth and fifteenth wards, in addition to the sewage contained in Jones falls, resulted in a condition of filth upon which the tide seemed to have no effect, and left a deposit that increased so rapidly that constant dredging was necessary. VITAL STATISTICS. 66 The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows : LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OF POPULATION.

Of themselves they are misleading, and have only been stated for indication and explanation of the necessity for proper consideration of the relative numbers of the living population and the dead, as well as the peculiarities of the conditions existing. As stated above, the number of people in the district on June 1, 1890, was very small. The mean population (June 1,1887) was 152, the number of whites being 147 and the number of colored 5. Ordy 9of the total population were under 5 years of age, all of them being white. The aggregate number of deaths during the 6 years was 106, giving an average annual death rate of 110.23 per 1,000 of population. It is probable that the number of persons in the district June 1, 1890, was less than usual, although at no time large. The large number of deaths indicates some unusual cause, and the location of the district raises the presumption that a considerable portion of these may have been due to drowning. A special analysis shows this to be correct, the number of deaths from drowning during the 6 years being 48, or an average annual rate of 526,32 per 100,000 of population. There were no deaths from malarial fever, diphtheria and croup, or typhoid fever, and but 8 deaths in 6 years from consumption, although the death rate from the last mentioned cause (877.19) would appear to be excessive. During the 6 years there were 2 deaths from each of the following named causes: scarlet fever, diarrheal diseases, measles, childbirth and puerperal diseases, and old age, each of which would therefore have an average annual death rate of 219.30 per 100,000 of population, which would be excessively high for some of the causes mentioned if the small number both of deaths and of population were not taken into consideration. Area, 23 acres,* population, 2,045; white, 1,974; colored, 71; average density, 88,91 persons to the acre. The land was low, drainage bad, and the district submerged each time Jones falls overflowed its banks. Sanitary district C.—Bounded by Gay street, Jones falls, and Pratt and Frederick streets. This was probably the worst district in the city in all respects. Center market occupied a large portion of the district, while the foul water in the falls reached its eastern edge and the equally foul water of the basin touched its southern limit. The inhabitants were mostly of the lowest class of Italians and Polish Jews, with the refuse of the sailor element from the small trading vessels, crowded into old rookeries overhanging the falls or small dilapidated houses. , The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: IN 1,000 OP POPULATION.

The colored population was insignificant, and the rates for this class are omitted. Of the causes specified the rate due to diarrheal diseases was exceptionally high; that for diphtheria and croup was less than the average, and the rest caused about the average number of deaths. Sanitary district D.—Bounded by Center street, Jones falls, and Gay, Saratoga, Davis, Franklin, and North streets. Area, 19 acres; population, 658; white, 381; colored, 277; average density, 34.63 persons to the acre. The land was low and the variations in altitude but slight. DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BALTIMORE. 67 This district was mainly occupied by houses of prostitution, lowering in grade from North street toward the falls. The population was too small to base reliable conclusions from the death rates per 1,000 of population, which were all high, particularly that for the white children under 5 years of age. Of this class the proportion of children living June 1,1890, was only about one-third of the usual number, which practically explains the excessive rate. Malarial fever caused nearly four times the average number of deaths. The rate due to consumption was excessively high. Diarrheal diseases and typhoid fever each caused a higher rate than the average from these causes, and the death rates due to pneumonia, heart disease and dropsy, childbirth and puerperal diseases, stillbirths, and diseases of the nervous system were also excessive. Area, 23 acres; population, 1,869, of which 1,185 were white and 384 were colored; average density, 81.26 persons to the acre. The ground was low and variations in level did not exceed 15 feet between the highest and lowest points. Sanitary district E.—Bounded by Pratt, Sharp, Camden, Hanover, Barre, and Howard streets. The inhabitants of this district were mostly Polish Jews and Italians, living in old and small brick and wooden houses. The death rates of this district as compared with the average* for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. Total.

The proportion of children under 5 years of age was considerably less than usual, and the death rate for the whites of this class was somewhat above the average. The number of deaths due to all the specified causes was well below the average; the death rate for typhoid fever was exceptionally low, being less in but two other districts. WARD 10. There were no special features in this ward necessitating subdivision. It is treated as a sanitary district. The total area was 109 acres, with a total population of 15,760, there being 11,529 white and 4,231 colored. Total number of dwellings, 2,592; average density, 144.59 persons and 23.78 dwellings to each acre, with 6.08 persons to a dwelling. The changes in level were abrupt, there being a difference of 60 feet between the highest and lowest points; the rise of the land was toward the northwest. This was a central ward, principally residential, the population being mainly people of medium means living' in fair houses, with here and there small colonies of negroes living in alleys, and occasionally an isolated house of bad repute. The death rates in this ward as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. ' IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. Total.

The proportion of children under 5 years of age was less than usual, this being most marked among the whites, The death rates due to all of the causes specified above were lower than the average, excepting that for consumption, which was somewhat above the average. 68 VITAL STATISTICS. WARD 11. The total area of this ward was 211 acres; total population, 15,700; white, 8,939; colored, 6,761; total number of dwellings, 2,451. There were 74.41 persons and 11.62 dwellings to the acre, with 6.41 persons to a dwelling. The greater part of this ward was high ground, though the variations of level were abrupt in some parts, the difference between the highest and lowest points being 80 feet. This was also one of the central wards and largely residential in character. Sanitary district A.—Bounded by Union street, Druid Hill avenue, Preston street, Linden avenue, Garden street, John alley, Franklin, Pine, and Mulberry streets, Myrtle avenue, George street, and Pennsylvania avenue. Area, 79 acres : population, 9,350; white, 4,409; colored, 4,941; average number of persons to the acre, 118.35. The variations in altitude were abrupt, there being 40 feet between the highest and lowest points. The dwellings in this district were largely of medium grade, with boarding houses and some small stores. There was a large negro population, mostly in alleys.

The proportion of children under 5 years of age was less than usual, the deficiency being greatest among the whites. The death rates per 1,000 of mean population were about the same as the average for each race. The death rate due to diphtheria and croup was particularly low, being but little over one-third of the average rate, while the number of deaths due to consumption per 100,000 of mean population was high. On the other hand, the number due to pneumonia was considerably below the average. Sanitary district B.—Bounded by Eager street, Jones falls, and Center, Davis, and Hunter streets. Area, 15 acres, with a population of 243, of which 214 were white and 29 colored, the average number of persons to the acre being 16.20. This was mostly low ground and the variations in elevation did not exceed 10 feet. This district was occupied by car tracks, and the few houses were used by the laboring classes. The mean population of this district was very small, and the rates are of no value. Sanitary district C.—Bounded by Richmond, Cathedral, Eager, Hunter, Davis, and Center streets, Park avenue, Mulberry, Howard, Saratoga, Eutaw, and Franklin streets, John alley, Garden street, and Linden avenue. This district embraced an area of 117 acres, and contained a population of 6,107, of which 4,316 were white and 1,791 were colored, this giving an average of 52.20 persons to the acre. The variations in level were 80 feet, the highest point being about in the center of the district, the ground receding rapidly toward the east and south, mostly high ground. This district was occupied by fine residences, good boarding houses, churches, hotels, places of amusement, and a few stores scattered here and there. The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows:' IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. LOCALITIES. Total.

The rates among the children under 5 years of age were also below the average, the greatest decrease again being among the colored children, although the number of colored children was only about half and the number of white children about one-third of the usual proportion. The death rate in this district due to malarial fever was the lowest in the city, and the rates for the other causes specified were all much below the average. DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BALTIMORE. 69 WARD 12. The total area of this ward was 41G acres; total population, 28,341; white, 20,397; colored, 7,944; total number of dwellings, 4,564. There was an average of 68,13 persons and 10.97 dwellings to the acre, with 6.21 persons to a dwelling. The variations in altitude ranged from 20 to 115 feet above mean sea level, the main portion of the ward being on high ground. This was mainly a residential ward, occupying the northwestern section of the city. Sanitary district A.—Bounded by North avenue, Wilson, John, Dolphin, Brevard, and Iheston streets, Druid Dill avenue, Union street, Pennsylvania avenue, and Eobert street. The area covered by this district was 257 acres, and it contained a population of 21,535, of which 15,238 were white and 6,297 were colored, there being an average of 83.79 persons to each acre of area. The variations in altitude did not exceed 20 feet. This district was mainly residential in character, with houses from fine to good. There was a large negro population in the alleys. Fine buildings had been erected upon a large area of made land in the center of the district. A sewer laid here some years ago had to be put down 30 feet before the original level was reached; it was designed for storm water only, and had a wooden bottom, so its present condition can only be a matter of conjecture. A cave-in took place a few years ago directly over this sewer at the corner of Linden avenue, nearly engulfing a street car with the horses and passengers. The death rates in this district as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. Total.

All of the causes specified caused less than the average number of deaths, the rates due to diphtheria and croup and diarrheal diseases showing the most marked decrease. Sanitary district B,—Bounded by North avenue, Eobert street, Pennsylvania avenue, and Preston and Carey streets. Area, 113 acres; population, 5,964; white, 4,492; colored, 1,472; average density, 52.78 persons to the acre. All of this district was high, especially that portion which touched the old city limits.

For the whites under 5 years of age it was also the lowest of any district having any considerable population of this class, and the same may be said of the colored under 5, the rate for this class being less than one-third of the average. Of the causes specified the rates were all very much below the average, being about uniformly so. Sanitary district C.—Bounded by North avenue, and Cathedral, Preston, Brevard, Dolphin, John, and Wilson streets. This district covered an area of 46 acres, containing a population of 842, of which 667 were white and 175 were colored, there being an average of 18,30 persons to the acre. The elevation ranged from 20 to 100 feet above mean sea level. This district occupied the eastern part of the ward, just touching Jones falls. There was considerable vacant ground, also large car stables, and some good residences. The population was quite small, and the rates are of no value. 70 VITAL STATISTICS. WARD 13. This ward covered an area of 173 acres, containing a total population of 14,601, of which 12,353 were white and 2,248 were colored. The total number of dwellings was 2,340 and the average density 84.40 persons and 13.56 dwellings to each acre, with 6.22 persons to each dwelling.

The death rate due to malarial fever was much below the average. Diarrheal diseases, typhoid fever, and consumption each caused less than the average dumber of deaths per 100,000 of population, and diphtheria and croup caused more than the average number. Sanitary district B.—Bounded by Fayette, Paca, Baltimore, and Pine streets. Area, 12 acres; population, 906; white, 655; colored, 251; average number of persons to the acre, 75.50. The ground was high. This district had quite a large negro population, with some white prostitutes scattered here and there. The mean population was too small to entitle the death rates to much consideration. The mortality among the whites was about the same as the average. For the colored it was considerably above the average, but this may be due to the small number both of population and deaths. Area, 13 acres; population, 629; white, 495; colored, 134; average density, 48.38 persons to the acre. The variations in altitude were about 40 feet. Sanitary district C.—Bounded by Fayette, Eutaw, Pratt, and Paca streets. This district was composed almost entirely of stores and warehouses, with one hotel. The mean population was also too small to base reliable deductions upon the death rates in relation to population. The comparative mortality of the white and the colored races was about the same as in the preceding district. Sanitary district D.—Bounded by Pratt, Scott, Eainsey, and Amity streets. This district covered an area of 18 acres and contained a j)opulatiou of 1,410, of which 1,398 were white and 12 colored, there being an average density of 78.33 persons to the acre. The surface of the ground was fairly regular, the difference in the elevation not exceeding 20 feet.

The number of white children under 5 years of age reached about the average proportion, and the death rate per 1.000 of population of this class was considerably above the average. Diphtheria and croup caused 31 deaths in the 6 years ont of a mean population of 1,339, and the average annual death rate per 100,000 of population from this cause (385.80) would appear to be excessively high but for the relatively small numbers involved.

For the colored the total rate and also the rate for those under 5 years of age were both somewhat above the average. 76 VITAL STATISTICS. All of the causes specified caused less than the average number of deaths per 100,000 of population, excepting typhoid fever, in which case the rate was slightly above the average. WARD 20. The total area of this ward was 330 acres, and the total population 23,168, of which 18,507 were white and 4,661 were colored. The total number of dwellings was 4,042 and the average density 70.21 persons and 12.25 dwellings to the acre, with 5.73 persons to a dwelling. The land was high, the difference in level 100 feet. This was a residential ward in the northwestern section of the city, the inhabitants mostly living in good dwellings. There was some vacant land in the extreme northwestern section. The death rates in this ward as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. Total. Under 5 years.

All of the causes specified above produced considerably and about uniformly less than the average number of deaths due to each. WARD 21. This ward is erroneously designated on the series of maps as ward 22, the numbers being reversed. It was not subdivided and it constitutes a sanitary district in itself. Area, 6,973 acres; total population, 16,054; white, 15,148; colored, 906; average density, 2.30 persons and 0.39 dwellings to the acre, and 5.86 persons to a dwelling. The variations in level were extreme, ranging from tide water to the highest point in the city, 420 feet above. This was a suburban ward and occupied all of the new territory lately acquired to the west ot Jones falls. The northern part was occupied by Druid Hill park, with handsome dwellings surrounding it. The western part of this ward was traversed by Gwynns falls and was mainly vacant land, with several market gardens, 5 large cemeteries, and a house of refuge. The death rates in this ward as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OP POPULATION. IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. Total. \ Under years.

The number of deaths due to malarial fever was exceedingly low, the death rate per 100,000 of population being only about one-fourth the usual rate from this cause and considerably lower than in any other district. Of the other causes the number of deaths due tb diphtheria and croup and typhoid fever was much above the average number from these causes. Diarrheal diseases caused slightly more and consumption considerably less than the average number of deaths. DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND BALTIMORE. 77 WARD 22. This ward is erroneously designated on the series of maps as ward 21, the numbers being reversed. It was not subdivided and it forms a sanitary district in itselt. Area, 3,904 acres; total population, 23,338; white, 21,142; colored, 2,196; average density, 5.98 persons and 1.04 dwellings to the acre, and 5.73 persons to each dwelling. The land was high, the variations in level ranging from 80 to 320 feet above mean sea level. This ward had also been recently added to the city and was strictly suburban, with many fine villa residences, a large park, two lakes, and in the eastern part several cemeteries. The death rates in this ward as compared with the average for the city, exclusive of stillbirths, were as follows: LOCALITIES. IN 1,000 OF POPULATION. IN 100,000 OF POPULATION. Total. Under 5 years.
