Excerpt from Third Annual Report of the Bureau of Industrial Statistics of Maryland, 1895 This report presents the results of investigations made by this Bureau during the year 1894. The subjects of which it treats are seven in number: Manufactures, Agriculture, Mortgages. Personal Property Values, Sweat Shops, The Unemployed, and Strikes. The statistics of manufactures, agriculture and mortgages are taken from the United States Census, and have been supplied through the courtesy of the Hon. Carroll D.Wright, who has charge of the completion of that work. The presentation of these figures serves an important purpose, in that it puts into convenient form for general use, the tabulations of the Eleventh Census for the State of Maryland, and brings them more readily within reach than would otherwise have been possible. These three subjects contain the facts of leading interest gathered by the Census Office for Maryland, and the idea here is to make a compendium of valuable information, which it would be difficult to sift from the mass of material contained in the Census reports, even could they at all times be obtained. The complete report of the Eleventh Census will consist of twenty-five volumes, containing 22, 290 pages, treating with great comprehensiveness the various subjects of investigation, and thus making the search for information relating peculiarly to the State of Maryland a very laborious one. Some of the figures here given have been published by the Census Office in bulletin form, but not with the same completeness of detail, while others have not heretofore been made public, for the reason that the completion of the Census being so near at hand, the issuing of bulletins was discontinued and the work held over for incorporation in the final report. For instance, neither the statistics of manufactures, nor of agriculture, in their entirety, have been published by counties.
