266 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK

JEWISH STATISTICSThe statistics of Jews in the world rest largely upon estimates.

In Russia, Austria-Hungary, Germany, and a few other countries,official figures are obtainable. In the main, however, the num-bers given are based upon estimates repeated and added to byone statistical authority after another.

For the statistics given below various authorities have beenconsulted, among them the " Statesman's Year Book" for 1911,the English " Jewish Year Book" for 5671-72, " The Jewish Ency-clopedia," Jiidische Statistik, and the Alliance Israelite Uni-verselle reports.

THE UNITED STATESESTIMATES

As the census of the United States has, in accordance with thespirit of American institutions, taken no heed of the religiousconvictions of American citizens, whether native-born or natural-ized, all statements concerning the number of Jews living in thiscountry are based upon estimates.

The Jewish population was estimated—In 1818 by Mordecai M. Noah at 3,000In 1824 by Solomon Etting at 6,000In 1826 by Isaac C. Harby at 6,000In 1840 by the American Almanac at 15,000In 1848 by M. A. Berk at 50,000In 1880 by Wm. B. Hackenburg at 230,257In 1888 by Isaac Markens at 400,000In 1897 by David Sulzberger at 937,800In 1905 by "The Jewish Encyclopedia" at 1,508,435In 1907 by " The American Jewish Year Book "

The Industrial Removal Office made an estimate in 1910 of theJewish population in fifty cities as follows: Akron, O., 1,400;


Atlanta, Ga., 4,200; Augusta, Ga., 600; Buffalo, N. Y., 14,000;Canton, O., 1,000; Charleston, S. C, 1,500; Chattanooga, Tenn.,600; Chester, Pa., 500; Cincinnati, O., 28,000; Cleveland, O., 45,-000; Colorado Springs, Colo., 400; Columbus, O., 4,200; Daven-port, la., 350; Dayton, O., 3,500; Denver, Colo., 8,000; Des Moines,la., 3,500; Detroit, Mich., 14,000; Erie, Pa., 600; Evansville, Ind.,900; Fort Wayne, Ind., 500; Grand Rapids, Mich., 400; Harris-burg, Pa., 1,700; Indianapolis, Ind., 7,000; Jacksonville, Fla.,1,000; Joplin, Mo., 175; Kalamazoo, Mich., 400; Kansas City, Mo.,8,000; La Crosse, Wis., 200; Leavenworth, Kan., 400; Lincoln,Neb., 1,000; Lynchburg, Va., 250; Madison, Wis., 200; Minne-apolis, Minn., 6,500; Montgomery, Ala., 1,500; Norfolk, Va., 3,200;Omaha, Neb., 6,500; Portland, Ore., 5,500; Quincy, 111., 150;Rochester, N.

This shows an increase of 37,220 over the figures for the samecities given in the AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK for 5668, or notquite 15 per cent. On this basis the Jewish population of thewhole of the United States should have increased, since the lastestimate, made in 1907, from 1,777,185 to 2,044,762.

IMMIGRATION

The total Jewish immigration to the United States, through thethree principal ports of entry, New York, Philadelphia, and Balti-more, from 1881 to June 30, 1911, is stated to have been 1,559,445.

JEWISH STATISTICS 269

To the totals given above should be added 1400, the numberwho arrived at Galveston, and 3545, the number who arrived atother ports, making a total Jewish immigration of 91,223, out ofa total general immigration of 878,587.

For the year 1909-10, the Jewish immigration was: New York,66,153; Philadelphia, 5,896; Baltimore, 3,695; Boston, 1,403; otherports, 7,113; total, 84,260. From this should be deducted 5,689emigrating aliens recorded, and a considerable number not re-corded. Thus the total increase of the Jewish population by im-migration for the year 1909-10 was less than 78,571.
