“5. How many kept mistresses?

“Answer. Sixteen.

“6. What is your population?

“Answer. Seventy-five thousand seven hundred and fifty (75,750).

“The above is arrived at from the personal knowledge of some of our police-officers; no doubt the number is much greater.

“At the last census our population of the city proper was over sixty thousand (60,000). The population at that time of Pittsburgh, Alleghany, and the suburbs of Pittsburgh, was nearly one hundred thousand.

“Wm. Bingham, Mayor.”
