LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL.
DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE,
BtJKEAU OF THE CeNSUS,
Washington, D. C, December 18, WIS.
Sir:
I have the honor to transmit herewith a report on the benevolent institutions of the United States.
This report contains statistics relatmg to institutions for the care of children, societies for the protection and
care of children, homes for the care of adults or adults and children, hospitals, dispensaries, and institutions for
the blmd and deaf, showmg the name, location, and supervisory agency of each institution for which data was
secured and the class of inmates received by each, the movement of institutional population, the number of
employees, and certam statistics pertainmg to equipment, financial transactions, and property valuations, the
whole forming a handbook and directory for use m organized or individual philanthropy as complete as it has
been possible to prepare.
The report was prepared by Dr. Edwhi M. Bliss, under the supervision of Dr. Joseph A. HUl, expert special
agent in charge of the special census on institutions and institutional population. The list of institutions included
in the canvass was prepared by Mr. John Koren of Boston, formerly special agent of the Census Bureau.
Very respectfully,
Director of the Census.
Hon. WiLLi.\.M C. Redfield,
Secretary of Commerce. (7)

BENEVOLENT INSTITUTIONS, 1910.
INTRODUCTION.
The Report on Benevolent Institutions is one of a
series of reports, issued by the Bureau of the Census,
on institutions for the relief and care of the dependent
and delinquent classes. The other reports of the series
cover almshouses, penal institutions, and institutions
for the insane and feeble-minded, while this report in-
cludes homes of various types for adults or children,
organizations for the protection and care of children,
and institutions for the sick or disabled and for the
blind and deaf. The institutions covered by the other
reports are mostly public in character, while those cov-
ered by the present report are chiefly private. In the
other reports the emphasis is on the inmates, the infor-
mation furnished corresponding closely to that pro-
vided in the census reports on population; the present
report, on the other hand, emphasizes the tjrpe of insti-
tution, giving in each case its location and describing
its purpose, the class of inmates received, and its finan-
cial status, and might thus be designated as a direc-
tory of benevolent institutions.
PREVIOUS REPORTS.
Apparently the first effort to present a survey of the
charities of the United States was made in connection
with the Seventh Census taken in 1850. That report
showed the number of paupers supported wholly or in
part at pubhc expense within the year preceding, and
the actual number in institutions on June 1, 1850,
together with their nativity, and certain other par-
ticulars. It was felt, however, that as this took no
notice of those supported or reUeved by individual
charities, it was not complete, and a special effort was
made in 1854 to supply the lack. The returns, how-
ever, were imsatisfactory, and were never presented
infuU.
The Eighth Census (1860) confined itself to a report
on the iimaates of almshouses.
The Ninth Census (1870) took the same course, on
the ground that the "framers of the Census law did
not have it in contemplation that the beneficiaries of
hospitals, dispensaries, and asylmns distinctly for the
blind, sick, or insane would be embraced in the
returns," enforcing this conclusion by a reference to
the eleemosynary character of educational institu-
tions, due to their large endowments, which would
necessitate their inclusion in any complete review of
benevolences.
The Tenth Census (1880) recognized the very close
relations existing between institutions for public and
private reUef of the poor, but the difficulty connected
with a similar enumeration of the inmates of the two
classes of institutions resulted in the decision to limit
the investigation of private benevolences to institu-
tions for homeless children. The report in regard to
these was quite complete, giving the number of
" Homeless children in almshouses, in families of out-
door paupers, and in all institutions of a benevolent
or beneficent character, including orphan asylums,
homes for children, homes for the aged, friendless,
etc., also those having no given habitation.'- These
were also classified according to sex, race, and
nativity.
The Eleventh Census (1890) placed the statistics of
benevolent institutions on the same basis as those for
almshouses, prisons, etc., and called for, as nearly as
possible, the same information as to their inmates as for
the population at large. While the arrangement was
by classes of institutions, probably as the most con-
venient way of securing retiu-ns, the results were set
forth by characteristics of inmates and the institutional
element practically dropped out of sight, the emphasis
being upon the inmates.
The classification of institutions was as foUows: (1)
Those for children, with an occasional adult element;
(2) those for adults, with an occasional child element;
(.3) hospitals and infirmaries; and (4) miscellaneous,
such as homes for discharged prisoners and for mag-
dalens, inebriate asj'lums, etc.
The inmates were classified by sex, age, color, na-
tivity and race, naturalization, legal residence, liter-
acy, education, ability to speak English, marital con-
dition, health (whether in good health, ill, insane,
blind, deaf-mutes, idiots, crippled), occupations prior
to admission to institutions, and cause of depend-
ence. The classification of children in institutions was
further extended to cover the questions of legitimacy,
orphanage, abandonment, and institutional births.
The statistics were arranged in a great variety of
combinations, so as to make the presentation as com-
plete as possible. It appeared, however, that the
replies were by no means satisfactory, and although
the percentage of error, in the view of the writer of the
report, was not such as to invalidate conclusions, it was
large enough to raise a question as to the real value
of the investigation, in view of the labor and expense
involved and the degree of coilipleteness attained.
Under the law governing the Twelfth Census (1900),
the enumeration of special classes could not be under-
(11)

taken until the census of population, vital statistics,
agriculture, and manufactures had been completed.
By that time the permanent Census Bureau had been
established, with authority to conduct these investi-
gations, and the reports on paupers, insane, feeble-
minded, prisoners, and inmates of benevolent institu-
tions, were made as for the year 1904. All except the
last were conducted along the same lines that had been
followed in previous censuses, classifying the inmates
by age, sex, nativity, race, etc.
For the report on Benevolent Institutions, however,
an entirely different plan was adopted. The regular
census enumerators were not available, the appoint-
ment of special agents for a large number of small insti-
tutions would have involved an expense out of pro-
portion to the value of the results obtained, and it
was decided to gather the information by correspond-
ence with the institutions themselves. This method
made it especially difficult to secure the type of in-
formation set forth in the reports for the Eleventh
Census. Comparatively few private institutions keep
any records of race, nativity, literacy, etc. In many
cases those in charge, while excellent superintendents,
matrons, etc., are entirely unfitted for preparing a
detailed report as to the inmates, and not infrequently
seem to resent a request for such information. The
result was that the report became a "Directory of
Benevolent Institutions," with merely enough of sta-
tistics to give an idea of the size of each particular
home or hospital. The items covered included the
name and location of the institution ; how it was super-
vised and maintained; the year of establishment;
its specific object; the number of inmates at the com-
mencement and close of the year, and the number re-
ceived during the year; the number of paid employees;
the amounts received from public funds and from pay
inmates; and the total annual cost of maintenance.
In the tables for orphanages and homes there was a
classification by sex, and the distinction between
adults and children was recognized, but there was no
effort to show age periods, so that the term "child"
covered the period from infancy to majority, and an
adult might be 18 or 70 years of age. Furthermore,
the period covered by the financial statement was
different from that covered by the record of inmates.
THIRTEENTH CENSUS REPORT (1910).
Period covered by the report. — The law providing for
the Thirteenth Census reverted to the original plan
and made the institutional census contemporaneous
with the decennial census of population. Accordingly
the period covered by the present report is the calendar
year 1910. It appeared, however, in the case of a num-
ber of institutions, that the fiscal or institutional year
did not coincide with the calendar year, so that it was
exceedmgly difficult to secure exact figm-es for the cal-
endar year. In such cases, reports were accepted for
the fiscal or institutional year when it closed in the
early half of 1911, which was found to be sufficiently
accurate for the pm-poso of the report.
Scope of the report. — The scope of this report is essen-
tially the same as that of the report for 1904, and is
indicated by the classes of mstitutions included and
the nature of the information furnished in regard to
them.
Cldsses of institutions included. — The institutions
covered by the investigation may be classified under
the following general heads:
I. Institutions for the care of children.
II. Societies for the protection and care of children.
III. Homes for the care of adults, or adults and children.
IV. Hospitals and sanitariums.
V. Dispensaries.
VI. Institutions for the blind and deaf.
Certain changes from the report of 1904 should be
noted. Day nurseries, included then with orphanages
and children's homes, have been omitted; societies for
the prevention of ci-uelty to children, children's aid
societies, and other similar organizations have been
brought together as a distinct class; dispensaries,
formerly mcluded with hospitals, have been classed
by themselves ; and the distinction between permanent
and temporary homes for adults and children has been
dropped and both classes have been united under the
head of homes for the care of adults, or adults and
children.
Thii classification, while perhaps the best available,
is not completely satisfactory. Many mstitutions
might easily be placed in either of two classes; others
have developed quite differently from their avowed
purpose; and stUl others seem to fit into no class.
There are foundling asylums and children's hospitals
which might be mcluded imder either Class I or Class
IV; homes for incurables, convalescents, and the like
which might be included under either Class III or
Class IV; societies included under Class II which are
practically of the same type as institutions included
under Class I.
Confusion arises also from the difficulty of deter-
minmg the line between adults and children; strictly,
all minors are children, yet to include under Class I a
rescue home merely because the inmates are under their
majority is scarcely fitting. Accordingly, in general,
the principal object of an institution has determined
the class to which it was assigned.
iVnother perplexhig problem arose in connection with
the decision as to what are the distinctive charac-
teristics of a "benevolent institution." The ordinary
use of the term is sufficiently clear, even though an
exact definition that is also inclusive is scarcely pos-
sible. The report for 1890 made no attempt at defini-
tion, merely calling attention to some of the incon-
sistencies in its use. The report for 1904, after stating
that an mstitution was considered benevolent "if sup-

ported, wholly or in part, by public taxation, private
endowment, or subscriptions, donations, and other
forms of gift, for the benefit of the sick, aged, and
needy," elaborated exceptions to such an mterpreta-
tion, untn the criteria of admission to the list became
more or less uidefinite.
In the preparation of the present report the same
difficulties were met, and it was deemed best not to
follow any rigid rule, but to rely upon the best obtam-
able testimony and to exercise judgment in each indi-
vidual case.
In general, it may be stated that the benevolent
institutions included in this report are those for the
benefit of the sick, the needy, and the dependent,
exclusive of those covered by the special reports on
paupers, the insane, and the feeble-minded. The
great majority are conducted by private persons or
corporations both with and without financial assist-
ance, whether from public authorities or private bene-
faction. Some are charitable in the sense that inmates
are cared for free of all charge; others are benevolent
rather than charitable, in that they provide succor
and relief for persons who are not destitute, but whose
means or circumstances are inadequate for the fuU
provision for their need. In most cases the income,
from whatever source received, is applied to the pur-
poses of the institution.
Information furnished. — The scope of the informa-
tion furnished in this report has been determined
largely by the fact that, as in 1904, the correspond-
ence method of conducting the canvass was adopted.
It was recognized as impracticable to expect the
officials in charge of an orphanage, asylum, or hospital
to undertake to furnish facts not provided in then- own
records. Consequently only such questions were asked
as would naturally be readily answered by those officers.
The classification by sex has been extended to
include all persons under the care of institutions,
patients in hospitals or treated in dispensaries, nurses,
agents, and other employees; and in the statistics for
hospitals children under 15 years are shown separately.
The financial reports have been elaborated to include,
in addition to the items previously presented, the
receipts from donations, the amount of invested funds,
and the value of property; and inqunies have been
made as to the date of incorporation, if incorporated,
the admission of colored persons, the number of beds
in hospitals, and the adoption of the cottage plan in
the conduct of institutions for the care of children.
Special features. — The most important new feature
is the presentation of a new phase of activity involv-
ing the enumeration of a distinct class of benevolent
organizations. Up to 1904 the care of dependent
children, of which a census investigation could legiti-
mately take cognizance, was limited to that exercised
in homes where they were resident inmates. The
conception of a family home for each child as the ideal
solution of the dependent-chUd problem had only
recently become famihar, and comparatively little
progress had been made in putting it into practice.
The report for that year covered a number of chil-
dren's aid societies, societies for the prevention of
cruelty to children, and similar organizations, but only
those which conducted homes with resident inmates.
The succeeding years, however, witnessed a remarka-
ble development along these fines. There was a large
increase in the number of societies specially organized
for the purpose of finding homes for children; institu-
tions, orphanages, and homes added this to their hst
of activities; and juvenile courts, pubhc officers, alms-
houses, reformatories, and very nearly every kind
of organization or institution that had deaUngs with
children shared in the new impulse. In order to
give to this development recognition in the present
report, a special classification of "Societies for the
protection and care of children" was made, and ques-
tions as to the number placed in families were intro-
duced into the schedules for institutions for the care
of children.
Another important feature of the report is the classi-
fication of the inmates of institutions according to the
cause for their admission. In the report for 1904 the
institutions were described as for orphan, destitute,
homeless, deUnquent, or other children; for aged,
infirm, disabled, wayward adults; incurables, epilep-
tics, etc. In this report the institutions are described
m the same way, but in addition the number of inmates
of these difl'erent classes is shown, so that a clearer idea
of the institution is furnished; and there is a partial
basis for a study of the conditions indicated by the
facts. For inmates of institutions for the care of
children there is a further classification according to
the agencies through which they enter the institution.
STATE LEGISLATION AND SUPERVISION.
An important factor in the development of benevo-
lent institutions is the changing attitude of the state
toward all classes of dependents, manifest in the or-
ganization of systems of supervision of charitable
institutions, and the enactment of laws governing the
treatment of dependents, especially children and
dehnquents. Seldom does a year pass without the
enactment by some state of elaborate statutes pro-
viding for the better care of orphans and dependents,
the establishment of juvenile courts, and the placing
of all rehef institutions under the general supervision,
and sometimes the authority, of a state board. One
result has been a new emphasis upon the close relation
between the different classes of dependents. In many
states children are no longer allowed in almshouses,
but must be provided for in benevolent institutions;
and juvenile dehnquents, pending fuU trial, are cared
for in detention homes, classed as benevolent institu-
tions, and when committed by the courts are, except
14

in cases of serious crime, intrusted to benevolent insti-
tutions. Furthermore, the poor officers or other au-
thorities charged with looking after the poor in many
states are specially instructed to keep in constant
communication with private institutions, not merely
that private relief may assist pubUc rehef, but that
the recipients of rehef may receive attention which
the pubhc institution could scarcely give.
State boards of charities. — Probably the most pow-
erful influence in tills direction has been that exerted
through the state boards of charities. Under various
names and with differmg status these exercise a gen-
eral supervision over the entire field of charity, often
adding to it that of correction. They are generally
charged with the duty of immediate inspection of in-
stitutions with a view to the prevention of abuses and
the adoption of the best methods, but in the later
and more elaborate codes they are required to make
careful study of the entire problem of the care of the
"wards of the state." Originally their duties were
simply supervisory and the members gave their serv-
ices for the public good, although necessary office or
traveling expenses were paid. Of late it is becoming
the custom to recognize them as an integral part of
the state government, and the members are salaried
and give their entire time to the work. In the latter
case the board generally has administrative as well as
supervisory authority and is frequently termed a board
of control. In many cases, a supervisory board has a
salaried secretary who acts as an executive officer.
The following list describes the situation in each state:
Alabama No state board. Inspector of jails, alms-
houses, cotton mills, and factories (sala-
ried).

trative (salaried).

Wisconsin State Board of Control, administrative and
supervisory (salaried).
Wyoming State Board of Charities and Reform, ad-
ministrative and supervisory (all salaried
executive officers of the state).
As will be seen these boards in most cases include
under their supervision poorhouses and general poor
rehef, hospitals for the insane, reformatories, and not
infrequently prisons, as well as what are generally
regarded as more properly benevolent or charitable
institutions, and tliis increasingly close interrelation
of the different branches of their work will have an
undoubted effect upon the development of distinctly
charitable or benevolent work. That it has already
had an influence is certain, though it is not as yet easy
to de&ie, and any interpretation of the figures for
county homes for dependents in such states as Ohio
and Connecticut for rescue homes under the care of
Sisters of the Good Shepherd and similar organizations
all over the country, and for boards of guardians in
Indiana, must take into consideration the increasing
influence and activities of organized charity.
GENERAL SUMMARIES.

GENERAL SUMMARIES OF STATISTICS OF BENEVOLENT INSTITUTIONS.
The principal statistics of the benevolent institu-
tions included in this report are summarized in Tables
I to 16, inclusive. Tables 1 to 3 give the aggregate
number of institutions, of inmates at the close of the
year, and of persons received during the year; and the
total income, expenditure, and value of property, for
all classes of institutions; Tables 4 and 5 give a com-
parative summary of such statistics in this report and
in that for 1904, as are fairly comparable; Tables 6 to
II show the number of institutions, of inmates at the
close of the year, and of persons received during the
year, in the diflferent classes of institutions ; and Tables
12 to 16 present the total income, expenditures, and
value of property of these classes of institutions.
INSTITUTIONS, INMATES, AND FINANCES OF INSTI-
TTJTIONS.
A general summary of the statistics included in this
report is given in Table 3. The first column of the
table shows the entire number of institutions given in
the general tables. Under each succeeding head is a
column giving the number of institutions reporting
that particular item, which differs very materially from
the number in the first column. This is due to the
exclusion from these columns (1) of all institutions
which were not in operation during 1910, or on Decem-
ber 31 of that year, and which consequently furnished
no statistics, but which, for different reasons, it was
deemed wise to include in the general tables; and (2)
of those institutions which for any reason made no re-
port of the particular item. This latter condition
seems to have been due in some cases to the absence
of the necessary records, in others to the fact that the
item was not pertinent to the institution. Thus, dis-
pensaries and a number of societies for the protection
and care of children made no report of inmates at the
close of the year, but did report the number of persons
received under their care during the year. In addi-
tion, the financial reports of a number of institutions
are included in those from other institutions under
whose supervision they are operated. This is espe-
cially true of dispensaries and of some branch hospitals.
The distribution of these various items by geo-
graphic divisions is illustrated by the following table:

COMPARATIVE SUMMARY: 1910 AND 1904.
The diffeiciiccs in j)lan botweeii the present report
and that for 1904 make it difficult to present a fair
comparison between the statistics for the two years.
Day nurseries, reported in 1904, have been dropped from
the list of institutions co^ ored, while societies for the
protection and care of children have been added, and
though the resulting change in the aggregate number
of institutions is not great, the totals for inmates and,
to an even greater extent, for persons received during
the year are considerably increased. The inclusion,
under the head of inmates at the close of the year, of
persons not resident in institutions but under their care
or protection, and the inclusion, under the head of per-
sons received during the year, of patients treated in
dispensaries also materially affect those totals.

BENEVOLENT INSTITUTIONS, 1910.
The financial items, as is explained on page 22, are
so different that no attempt is made to present com-
parative statistics, and Table 4, which gives figures for
both 1910 and 1904, is thei'efore hmited to the aggre-
gate number of institutions, the number of inmates
at the close of the year, and the number of persons
received during the year. Detailed statistics are
presented in connection with the different classes of
institutions.
Keeping the above-mentioned facts in mind, the
following table showing by geographic divisions the in-
crease under the different heads, together with the
percentage of increase, makes it evident, in regard both
to the institutions and the number of persons under
their care, that there has been a marked increase, either
in the need of the communities or in the faciUties for
meeting the need. It is certainly contrary to general
observation that there has been any such increase in
the need as would be indicated by an increase of 164.6
per cent in the number of persons received into insti-
tutions, so that the conclusion seems inevitable that
the increased facihties for meeting the need are largely
responsible for the increased number of persons re-
lieved.

DISTRIBUTION OF INSTITUTIONS, INMATES, AND

The entu-e number of institutions of all classes, in-
cluding those which for any reason did not furnish
statistics, but combining hospitals and dispensaries
under the head of institutions for the care of the sick
is given in Table 9, while, for purposes of comparison,
the followmg table shows the number of institutions
in each class and the per cent which this number
represents of the total:

In connection with these tables it should be
borne in mind that, as will be explained more fully in
the text accompanying the descriptive tables on hos-
pitals, page 46, the number both of mmates of hospi-
tals and of persons received mto them includes a
large number of persons who can not fairly, e-xcept
perhaps in an indirect way, be considered as recipients
of benevolence, beuig pay uunates who meet all regu-
lar charges for treatment and who do not consiiler
themselves as under any special obligations to the
hospital authorities. In a somewhat similar man-
ner the inmates of institutions for the blind and deaf
are, for the most part, regarded m the same light
as pupils m educational mstitutions which are sup-
ported by the state. Keeping these conditions in
miml it is noticeable that while the hospitals and
dispensaries far outnumber the other classes, forming
46.1 per cent of all the mstitutions reported, and also
report a considerable majority of the number of per-
sons received during the year (66.0 per cent of the
GENERAL SUMMARIES.
19
total), in respect to number of inmates at the close of
the year they have a much lower standing, reporting
only 28.4 per cent of the total.
As will bo seen from the descriptive text ui comiec-
tion with the summary for homes for adults or
adults and children, page 38, a considerable number
of adults mcludcd m those tables can scarcely be
regarded as recipients of benevolent relief or assistance
in the usual sense of the term, while the children
hicluded in that class may all legitimately be so
regarded. It appears, therefore, that notwithstanding
the comparatively small number of children received
mto homes for the care of children, it is practically
certain that children occupy first place, numerically,
among the classes of persons receiving benevolent
care. A full presentation of the situation in regard to
children is given on page 26.
It should be said that the small number of children
received into institutions, as compared Avith the
number of adults received, is due to the large and
rapid movement of population in hospitals and in
homes for the temporary care of adults.

BENEVOLENT INSTITUTIONS, 1910.
DISTBIBXITION OF FINANCES OF INSTITUTIONS, BY
CLASS OF INSTITUTION.
The schedules sent out to the uistitutions called
for financial information as follows: (1) Receipts from
state, county, or municipal appropriations, from
mvcsted funds, from donations, from care of inmates,
and from other sources; (2) expenditures for general
rumiing expenses, and for permanent improvements;
and (3) value of property at close of year, including
land, buOdmgs and apparatus, antl invested funds.
Infonyiation furnished. — From the returns it became
clear that it would be unpossible to obtain the deshed
information, at least in detail. Some institutions
evidently did not keep the necessary financial records,
others objected to making public their private finances.
This latter difficulty was overcome in some instances
by including the figures in the summary tables where
the identity of the institution was not disclosed and
not presenting them in the detailed general tables.
It became apparent also that Mmitations of space for
the tables necessitated some consolidation.
Tables 14, 15, and 16, on pages 23, 24, and 25, show,
by geographic divisions and states, the income, expendi-
tures, and value of property reported by the different
classes of institutions, together with the number of
institutions making a report as to each item. In each
case the figures cover all the varied sources of uicome,
the different forms of expenditure, and the different
classes of property.
The foUowuig table shows the distribution of the
tln-ee main financial items among the different classes
of uistitutions:

In similar manner. Table 13 gives the average
income, expenditures, and value of property for the
different classes.
Significance of figures reported. — The fuU significance
of these figures, of course, depends upon the relative
importance of the different classes of income, expentli-
ture, and property, the amount received from pay m-
mates, from public (federal, state, etc.) appropriations,
from invested funds, etc., respectively. This is shown
in subsequent tables, pages 73 to 78, and it is sufficient
here to call attention to a few items of special signifi-
cance. The relatively high rank of institutions for
the bUnd and deaf in the fuiancial items, as compared
with their rank in number of uistitutions and of in-
mates, is due cliiefly to the fact that the great majority
of them are state institutions, then expenditures bemg
on a scale commensurate with this fact. Hospitals
share in the same source of mcome, although theii'
prmcipal source is the amount received from pay m-
mates. Their property also includes a large amount
of invested funds or endowments. Among the homes
for adults and children are the large soldiers' homes
conducted by the federal and state governments, which
raise the totals and averages for this class of uistitu-
tions. On the other hand, as already stated, a consid-
erable number of dispensaries own no property apart
from the hospitals under whose auspices they are con-
ducted, and frequently their mcome and expenditures
are covered by the hospital statements. A similar
situation exists in regard to societies for the protection
and care of children.

The items that enter into these financial statistics
are of wider scope than those included in the report
for 1904, so that comparison between the two reports
is difficult. In 1904 the items called for were "Annual
subsidy from public funds," "Receipts from pay in-
mates," and "Cost of maintenance." As will be set
forth in fuller detail m connection with Tables 64-69,
pages 73-78, these do not appear to correspond with
the items covered by the present report. It was in-
tended to cover the item "Cost of mamtenance" by
the question calling for expenditures for general run-
ning expenses. As a matter of fact, the average "Cost
of maintenance" in 1904 was $13,211, while the aver-
age total expenditui'es in 1910, as above, were $26,008,
and the average runnmg expenses were $22,220. An
average increase of $9,011 per institution in sLx years
seems so unlikely as to render mevitable the con-
clusion that the elements entermg into the two reports
were so different as to make comparison impossible.
The situation is similar in regard to the receipts from
public funds and from pay inmates.

BENEVOLENT INSTITUTIONS, 1910.
STATISTICS FOR INDIVIDUAL CLASSES OF INSTITUTIONS.
The statistics of benevolent institutions are pre-
sented for ttie different classes of institutions sepa-
rately in summary and analytical Tables 17 to 49,
inclusive.
Tables 17 to 25 give the statistics for institutions
for the care of children; Tables 26 to 28, those for so-
cieties for the protection and care of children; Tables
29 to 36, those for homes for the care of adults, or
adults and cliildren; Tables 37 to 39, those for hospi-
tals and sanitariums; Tables 40 to 42, those for dis-
pensaries; and Tables 43 to 49, those for institutions
for the blind and deaf.
Class I.— INSTITUTIONS FOR THE CARE OF CHILDREN.
The institutions covered by this classification are
those especially designed for children. They include
orphanages, children's homes and asylums, receiving
homes for societies for the protection and care of
children, detention homes connected with juvenile
courts, and similar institutions wliich receive children
as resident inmates, sometimes for a very short period,
but do not mclude day nurseries or homes open for only
a part of the year.
CLASSES OF CHIXDREN RECEIVED.
The children received are primarily those who are
destitute and dependent upon the public for support.
Of late years, however, the state has come to recog-
nize its responsibility not only for the material welfare
of its children, but also for their protection from evil
influences, and in many states under the head of ' ' de-
pendent or neglected children" are included, not
merely orphans and children deserted by their parents
or guardians, and thus without visible means of support,
but also those who live in xmfit or disreputable surround-
ings, who are growmg up in the, habit of begging or
receiving alms, who frequent vicicus places, or who
in any way give indication of devylcping into unde-
sirable citizens. Such children, if they actually trans-
gress the law, are amenable to, the juvenile courts,
wherever such are established, and may be committed
to refonnatories, or if the offense is slight, to some
orphanage or other institution of tl/is class. If there
is no infraction of the law, the jiivendr "court may stiU
take cognizance of the case and comMit"the child to
some benevolent institution, or to the guardianship of
some person or persons, with a' ppecial" view to its
being placed in a family home. ' In mariy states offi-
cers in charge of poor relief are ' instructed to keep
careful watch for such children, and to see that they
are provided for in homes for chjil'dren, or in families,
detention m almshouses, except iii; the case of infants,
being forbidden in an increasing number of states.
Children's aid societies, humane societies, societies for
the prevention of cruelty to children, and similar or-
ganizations are also vested with rights of guardiansliip
of dependent children but are expected to direct their
energies toward the finding of a home for each one
in some family. Individual action along these lines
is generally discouraged, and in many states it is illegal
for any person or any institution to "place" a cliUd
except by authority of the court, of the state board of
charities, or of some similar body.
METHODS OF MANAGEMENT.
This development in the general purpose of child
care has residted in the development of different types
of institutions find of different methods of manage-
ment. There are still many orphan asylums of the
old type, but there is an increasing number of state
detention homes where dependent and delinquent
children are cared for pending final disposition by the
juvenile courts; of receiving homes under the conduct
of home-finding organizations; of state pubUc schools,
intermecUary between the orphanage and the reforma-
tory ; and of framing homes and schools of many kinds
wliich fi'equently are practically educational institu-
tions. The distinction between these classes is not
always easily drawn, yet, in general, they stand, as in-
dicating the different efforts to solve the child problem.
The general methods of conducting institutions for
the care of children have developed along three lines
which deserve special note: The extension of super-
visory care by institutions over cliildren placed by
them in family homes or elsewhere; the adoption by
cliildren's homes of the cottage system; and the
assumption by some state authority of supervision
over benevolent institutions.
The responsibUity of an institution for the well
being of a child committed to its guardianship does not
cease with its placement in a famUy home, except in
case of legal adoption. In all other cases the institvi-
tion is expected, and in some states is required, to
keep a careful watch of the concUtions in the family
where the cliild is placed, with o. view to change, should
it seem desirable. The result is that to record merely
the number of children resident in an institution at a
given time does not give an accurate presentation of its
work, and a column has been added to the tables
showing the number outside of the institutions, but
under theii' care or supervision.
The introduction of the cottage system in the conduct
of cliildren's homes is the residt of the conviction that
the old-time orphanage, with its scores or even hun-
dreds of uniformed children, was not well adapted to
the securmg of the best results in individual character.
The assumption by state authority of supervision
over benevolent institutions has already had notable
results in the betterment of conditions in those institu-
tions, in the preparation of new laws, in the inaugura-
tion of new methods (including the two already noted),
and in the emphasis laid on more complete and accurate
INSTITUTIONS FOR THE CARE OF CHILDREN.

reports. Wliile ultimately it will doubtless extend to
all classes of institutions, its chief application has
lutherto been to those for the care of chUdi'en, and the
Bureau of the Census is under obligations to the various
state boards for much of the completeness of the present
report.
The information secured by the census canvass in
regard to the different institutions for the care of
children included in this report, together with their
addresses, is shown in detail, by states, on pages 86
to 157. Table 19 gives the principal statistics by
states and geograpMc divisions.
The institutions covered by tliis table are mostly of
the old type, where orphan or dependent children are
gathered in a single building under the care of a j)rivate
association. There are, however, 92 county homes
(50 in Oliio, 17 in Indiana, and 7 in Connecticut); 18
state homes, several of these being for the orphans of
soldiers or sailors; and 5 municipal homes. There are
also 9 detention homes for dependent and deUnquent
children under the care of the juvenile courts, and
a number of receiving homes for societies for the pro-
tection and care of children (Class II). The cottage
system has been adopted by 168 homes.
The total number of homes reported, 1,151, repre-
sents an increase of 76 over the number reported in
1904. The following table arranges the states accord-
ing to the number of institutions reported in 1910:

TAnnp.iqpA
Tlie rank of the states, as shown in this table, is
determined by varying conditions. The liigh rank of
New York and Pennsylvania is natural, in view of the
size and peculiar type of their population; that of
Oliio is due chiefly to its system of county homes,
wliicli also figures largely in Indiana and Connecticut.
The following statement showing the number of
homes in proportion to the population in the different
geographic divisions is of interest, especially as intU-
cating the result of the activities of the charitable
organizations on the Pacific coast, wliich place that
division in the lead, above even the New England and
Middle Atlantic divisions:
Pacific division One liome to every 55,162 inhabitants.
New England division One home to every 55,531 inhabitants.
-Middle .\tlantic division One home to every 62,511 inhabitants.
East North Centrai division One home to every 70,195 inhabitants.
South Atlantic division One home to every 80,229 inhabitants.
Mountain di\ision One home to every 94,054 inhabitants.
West North Central diiision One home to every 122,504 inhabit ants.
West South Central division One home to every 151,457 inhabitants.
East South Central division One home to every 152,907 inhabitants.
COTTAGE SYSTEM.
The following table shows, by states, the average
number of inmates per institution and the number of
institutions reporting, and the extent to wliich the
cottage system has been adopted; the states are ar-
ranged accorchng to the average number of inmates
per institution. It is noticeable that the extension of
the cottage system has had a close relation to the em-
phasis laid by the states on county homes and general
state supervision. Thus Oliio, with its system of
county homes, leads in the adoption of the cottage
system, with New York, Illinois, Pemisylvania, and
CaUfornia following closely, while Indiana and Con-
necticut, also with county homes, surpass other states
of even greater size.

BENEVOLENT INSTITUTIONS, 1910.
PLACEMENT IN FAMILIES.
The degree to wliich the method of placement of
children in famihes has been carried by institutions
of this class is illustrated by the accompanying table
giving, by states, the number so placed during the year.
Detailed statistics as to this phase of work are given
in Table 57.

Table 22 shows, by states, the distribution of the
children reported, including both the inmates of the
institutions and those under their care in families.
COMPARISON WITH REPORT FOR 1904.
Comparison with the report for 1904 is materially
affected by the inclusion in tliis report, as already
noted, of the children outside of institutions but still
under their care, whereas the report for 1904 was
limited to those resident in the institutions them-
selves. Thus, of a total of 151,441 children reported
by these institutions as under their care, 39,927, or
26.4 per cent, ■were outside of the institutions. A
comparison of the cliildren resident in institutions
alone shows an increase over the figures for 1904 of
19,225.

In this connection it should be remembered that
the custom of placing cliildren in homes, as already
stated, is of comparatively recent origin. Massachu-
setts, New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut had
led the way, and by 1904 a considerable number of
states had adopted this method of caring for depend-
ent cliildren. Either because the work was poorly
organized, or because it was judged that that class of
cliildren did not properly come within the scope of
the report, there was no effort in 1904 to learn the
number of cliildren so provided for. It becomes there-
fore impossible to make any complete or exact state-
ment as to the relative situation in the two years.
In some states, as in Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee,
and South Dakota, while the total number of chil-
dren under care of institutions has increased, there
has been a decrease in the number resident in the
institutions. This would appear to indicate not so
much a change in the actual conditions as a change
in the efficiency of the methods of meetuig those
conditions.
That dependency increases witth the population is
undoubtedly true, but whether or not it increases in
the same ratio can not be ascertained without more
careful and thorough study than can be given at this
time. The next comparative summary presents the
facts for the different states.

In accordance with the modern tendency to regard
inmates of institutions, or other "wards of the state,"
as individuals, each with distinctive characteristics,
rather than in the mass, an effort has been made to
classify the children reported by the institutions into
certain broad groups. The results have not been
wholly satisfactory. In many cases the superin-
tendents or others in charge of the mstitutions evi-
dently had no exact records, in others there was
apparent uncertainty as to the class in which the par-
ticular children should be included. Table 24 presents
the results so far as it has been possible to interpret
the schedules. The distmction between orphans and
half-orphans was made in very few cases, and it was
found to be impracticable to separate even the found-
ling.^, so that all these classes are included under one
head. The children included under the heading "News-
boys and other working boys or girls" represent for
the most part the mmates of several newsboys' homes,
but this classification is incomplete because a number
of similar institutions are included in Class III (Homes
for adults, or adults and children) . The majority of
the children reported as "Defective or mvalids" are
cripples in homes for such children. Those classed as
delinciuent, wayward, or truant are reported chiefly
by the detention homes, 45 per cent of the total for
this class being reported by an institution in Chicago.
In the final column are included all children regarding
whose classification the officers of the institutions
were in doubt.

Incomplete and unsatisfactory as this table is, it
marks an advance in the i-ecoguition of llic necessity

INSTITUTIONS FOR THE CARE OF CHILDREN.
33
The following table, classifying the children received
into institutions according to the agencies through
which they were received, is indicative of tho,ie agencies
rather than exact in its specification of them. The
term "Public official" includes municipal, township,
county, or state officers; the "Agents of institutions"
are the representatives of the institutions themselves.
It is manifestly not always easy to distinguish between
these difl'erent agencies, and the figures given can not
be considered complete or exact, but they are of m-
terest, especiallj' those showing the number of children
brought to institutions by relatives or friends.

BENEVOLENT INSTITUTIONS, 1910.
Class II.— SOCIETIES FOE THE PROTECTION AND CARE OF CHILDREN.
The organizations covered oy this classification
include societies for the prevention of cruelty to chil-
dren, humane societies, children's aid societies, chil-
dren's friend societies, and home-finding societies,
and, in brief, any organizations which receive children
under their care for the special purpose of finding
homes for them, and wliich place them in such homes,
by boarduig, adoption, or indenture. In the strict
sense of the term, these organizations can scarcely be
called institutions, yet their woi'k is frequently so
thoroughly institutional in character, so closely alHed
to that carried on by many orphanages, homes, etc.,
that to omit them from this report would eliminate
from it a most important element. It was therefore
decided to obtam statistics for societies as a separate
class, but to hmit the number included to those which
actually receive children under their care. A con-
siderable number of such societies, especially of
humane societies, oonfine their efl'orts to the prosecu-
tion, in the com"ts, of cases of cruelty to children,
while some are siniply agencies for cliild-protection,
but are not in any sense responsible for the subsequent
well-being of the children; aU societies of this char-
acter are excluded.
INFORMATION FUBNISHED.
The facts shown by the tabulation are the number
of paid and voluntary agents m service, the number
of receiving or temporary homes under the control
of the society, the number of f amihes m which cMldren
were placed during the year, the mmiber of children
so placed, and the number imder the care of the
society at the close of the year. In addition to these
data regarding the organization and work of the
society, its receipts, expenditures, and property valua-
tion are shown. The cluldren placed during the year
are classified according to their location in famihes or
in institutions, being grouped in each case under the
same general heads as the cliildren m institutions of
Class I. Those imder the care of the society at the
close of the year are classified as in the receiving or
temporary homes, in families, \vith or without pay-
ment of board, and m custody elsewhere.
The receiving or temporary homes \mder the care
of the societies, together with their inmates, are also
included in Class I, which fact should be noted in any
consideration of the figures for the total number of
children in various classes of institutions. The infor-
mation obtained in regard to the societies covered,
together with their local addresses, is presented in
detail, by states, on pages 158 to 173. Table 28
summarizes the more important figures.
From this table it appears that the majority of these
societies are found m the Middle Atlantic and East
North Central divisions. Among the states Indiana
leads with 33, and is followed by New York with 28,
Pennsylvania with 25, Ohio with 16, New Jersey with
12, and Massachusetts with 10. Vermont in New
England, Georgia, Mississippi, and Louisiana in the
South, and Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and Wyoming in
the West, reported no organizations of this ty])e.
A noticeable featm-e of these societies is the extent
to which they employ voluntary agencies. Of the 205
organizations enumerated only 163 reported agents,
the inference as to the other 4^ being that the regular
officers of the societies carried on whatever business
might be necessary in caring for the cMldren. Those
societies which employed agents reported a total of
3,135, of whom 977 were paid, and 2,158 served with-
out compensation. It is noteworthy that voluntary
service is practically confined to the eastern states
(including the East North Central division), Missouri
being the only southern state, and Cahfornia and Colo-
rado the only western states reporting an appreciable
amount of voluntary work. Of the paid agents a
majority are women, while of the volmitary agents
the overwhelming majority are men.
As already intimated, there are two quite distinct
departments of work conducted by these societies:
protection of children, through the courts, from cruel
treatment or from evil influences; and provision for
their care. As this report is necessarily hmited to
children who come directlj' under the care of the
societies, those organizations wliich confine their
acti\'ities to the first-named department are excluded,
while for those whose work includes both protection
and home finding only the last-named branch is pre-
sented in these tables.
The children cared for are tabulated under two
heads, ''Children placed during the year" and "Chil-
dren under care of societies at the close of the year."
The first head is subdivided so as to show children
placed during the year in families and in institutions,
respectively; the second shows the number at the
close of the year in receiving homes controlled by soci-
eties, and those under their supervision in families,
other institutions, or elsewhere.
In this connection an explanation of the terms used
in these tables in regard to the placing or care of chil-
dren will assist in interpreting their significance. A
child is placed in a family, by assignment by the soci-
ety, with or without payment of board; by adoption
into the family; or by indenture. The term "insti-
tution" is applied to an orphanage, childi-en's home,
or other home that receives children as inmates; and
the institution is usually one that is recognized by the
court or by the state board of charities as providing
proper care for the child. A child is placed in such an
institution when it is committed to its care with
approval of the court or state board of charities, or is
temporarily intrusted to it by the society, pending
further disposition. A receiving home under the
control of the society, and in which children are pro-
vided for temporarily, is not included under this
definition.

From this table it appears that New York placed
6,177 children (72.1 per cent of the total reported for
that state) in institutions and only 2,389 (27.9 per
cent) in families; Massachusetts placed 89.6 per cent
in families and only 10.4 per cent in institutions; and
Washington placed all but 6 of 536 children in famiUes,
while Colorado placed all but 4 out of 368 children in
institutions. The explanation of this marked differ-
ence between certain states is found chiefly in the
type of society that conducts the principal amount of
child-placing work in the particular state. In general,
societies originally or primarily protective in their
character place the majority of childi'en in institu-
tions, while the children's aid societies, home-finding
societies, and those of that type place the majority
of their children in famiUes. Thus, out of the total
number reported from New York 6,046 were reported
by 3 societies, the New York and Brooklyn Societies
for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, and the
Mohawk and Hudson Humane Society, all three organ-
izations being primarily protective rather than home
finding in their character; in Massachusetts almost all
were reported by children's aid societies and similar
organizations; while in Colorado, two humane socie-
ties, and in Washington a children's home society,
were the only ones reported.
As in the case of institutions for the care of children
(Class I), so with these societies the assumption by
state authority of supervision over benevolent insti-
tutions has resulted in requiring child-placing and
home-finding societies to continue their guardianship
and supervision over children placed by them until it
is clear that the right home has been found.
RECEIVING HOMES.
Another development lias been the establishment
by a number of societies of receiving homes, where
cliildren who come under their care, but for whom as
yet no appropriate family or institution has been found,
may be temporarily placed, or to wliich they may be
returned should the experiment of family placing in
any instance prove a failure. Some home-finding
societies, instead of establisliing such a home, make
arrangements with some neighboring orphanage or
home, but the tendency is to have separate homes for
the care of these cliildren.
The following table gives the cUstribution by states,
of the total number of cliildren reported by such socie-
ties as under theu* care at the close of the year, accord-
ing to their location in family homes, receiving homes,
or elsewhere. Tliis last column covers a great variety
of arrangements, some of the cliildren included being
in institutions where they are kept tentatively, some
in places where they are held on indenture, and some
being self-supporting, but still under supervision.

A comparison of this table with the preceding one

longer than do those of other states.

Thus New York, -wliicli placed 8,566 children during
the year, reported only 4,971 as under care at the close
of the year; but Pennsylvania, which placed 3,106 dur-
ing the year, reported 7,515 as under care at the close of
the year. Sunilar contrasts occur elsewhere. The ex-
planation is probably that in New York the societies
are prunarily protective rather than home finding in
their character, while in Pennsylvania the children's
aid societies are more prominent.
The same contrast appcai-s in the financial reports.
Only 1 65 of the 205 societies made any report of their
finances, and only 81 made any report as to the value
of property owned. It should, however, be remem-
bered that as the work of the societies in many cases
is yet in its infancy, and therefore not fully organized,
future reports will undoubtedly show considerable
increase along these lines.
Class III.— HOMES FOE THE CARE OF ADULTS, OR ADULTS AND CHILDREN.
The institutions covered by this classification are
primarily for adidts, and include homes for the jier-
manent care of the aged, infu'm, or destitute; for the
temporary shelter of the homeless, the unemployed,
or wayfarers; for the protection and relief of the un-
fortunate, wayward, or fallen; and for special classes,
as convalescents, incurables, epileptics, and others.
Cliildren are received when they accompany their
parents or when, for any reason, they can not appro-
priately be received into the institutions specially for
the care of cliildren (Class I), particularly in the case
of self-supporting, delinquent, or wayward minors.
In the report for 1904 these institutions were in-
cluded under two separate classifications, (1) "Per-
manent homes for adults, or adults and cluldren" and
(2) "Temporary homes for adults and children." In
the present report, cliiefly because of the fact that
many institutions seemed to belong sometimes to
both classes, all are included in one class, although
the distinction between permanent and temporary
homes is recognized in sqme of the analytical tables
which follow.
In a general way the institutions of tliis class are
distributed over the country according to the density
of the population rather than the area. The geo-
graphic divisions, however, show mdely divei-gent
ratios between the number of institutions and the
population. The ratios for the respective divisions
are as follows:
\ew England One to every 28,740 inhabitants.
Middle Atlantic One to every 43,406 inhabitants.
Pacific One to every 53,067 inhabitants.
East North Central One to every 68,611 inhabitants.
South Atlantic One to every 79,187 inhabitants.
West North Central One to every 93,364 inhabitants
Mountain One to every 125,405 inhabitants
East South Central One to every 137,867 inhabitants.
West South Central One to every 159,719 inhabitants.
The information secured in regard to the various
institutions of this class, together with their local ad-
dresses, is pi'esented by states in the general tables,
pages 174 to 267. Table 29 summarizes the principal
statistics by states and geographic di^^sions.

•A minus sign {— ) denotes decrease.
From this table it appears that there has been a
total increase of 233 institutions' Five states — Colo-
rado, Florida, Maine, Mississippi, and North Dakota —
report a decrease in the number of institutions, and
seven — Idaho, Montana, New Hampshire, Texas, Ver-
mont, Virgmia, and Wyoming — report the same num-
ber as in 1904, while Nevada remains the only state
that has no institution of this class. The largest
increase reported is in Pennsylvania (36), followed by
Illinois (24), New York (21)," Ohio (15), Indiana (13),
Minnesota (11), and Georgia, Massachusetts, New
Jersey, and Washuigton (10 each).
The increase m the total number of inmates reported
at the close of the year is 10,416. Eight states — Ari-
zona, California, Kansas, Maine, New Hampshire,
Ohio, Vu-ginia, and Wisconsm — show a decrease. The
largest increase is reported from New York, followed
by Pennsylvania, lUmois, and Minnesota.
The number of inmates at the close of the year and
the number of persons received during the year per
100,000 of the total population are shown by geo-
graphic divisions in the following table:

It should be borne in mind that the table deals with
data that are far from homogeneous either as to class
of institutions covered or type of persons included.
Among the institutions are federal and state soldiers'
homes. Masonic and other fraternal homes, homes for
the aged under the care of Catholic sisters or private
coi-porations, municipal lodging houses for transients,
associated charities' shelters, rescue homes for way-
ward or fallen women, shelters for the unemployed,
homes for incurables and convalescents, etc. Pri-
marily, all these institutions are supposed to be de-
signed for adults, yet a large number of children are
provitled for, some with their parents, and some tem-
porarily, because no other suitable homes are open to
them, while in many cases persons classed as children
because legally minors are to all intents and purposes
adults, being mdependent and self-supporting, and
only temporarily in need of relief.
PERMANENT AND TEMPORARY HOMES.
Totals made up of such diverse elements evidently
can not be regarded as fully satisfactory, yet the dis-
tinction between the two classes of homes (permanent
and temporary) is important and is frequently used.
Tables 32 and 33 give, with what is believed to be sub-
HOMES FOR ADULTS, OR ADULTS AND CHILDREN.
41
stantial accuracy, the situation in this respect, showing
for each class the number of homes, the number of
inmates at the close of the year, and the number of
persons received during the year. Under the head of
"Permanent homes" are moludcd those whose maui
purpose is to receive persons who have no prospect of
ability to care for themselves; under the head of
"Temporary homes," those which aim simply to supply
rcUef or shelter for those in immediate or temporary
need. The distinction between the two is not always
easily drawn, but the classification is sufficiently accu-
rate to bring out a general itlea of the conditions.

iSTumerically and in number of inmates at the close
of the year, the permanent institutions exceed the
temporary institutions; in the number of persons
received during the year, however, the temporary
homes far outclass the permanent homes. Both
classes are distributed over the country in about the
same proportion, the Middle Atlantic division being
followed by the East North Central, New England,
South Atlantic, West North Central, Pacific, East and
West South Central, and Mountain divisions, in the
order named, which order couicides closely with that
in the ratio of inmates to total population.
HOMES FOR ADULTS, OR ADULTS AND CHILDREN.
43
As was to be expected, adults outnumbered children —
73,177 to 4,873 in the permanent homes and 25,669
to 12,509 in the temporary homes — although it is to be
remembered that in the temporary homes the great
majority of the children arc independent minors
classed as children simply because they are under age.
Among the adults reported as inmates at the close of
the year, males greatly outnumbered females, and the
same is true in regard to those received into institu-
tions (lining the year. Among the children or minors,
however, the reverse is true.
PERMANENT HOMES.
A more detailed analysis of these figures is made in
the followmg table, which shows the more important
types of permanent homes and their inmates:

BENEVOLENT INSTITUTIONS, 1910.
Yvoia this table it appears that of the 808 perma-
ment homes, 63 are Soldiers' Homes and 74 are fi'a-
ternal beneficiary homes (Masonic, Odd Fellows, etc.),
lea\'ing 671 of a general type. Of the general homes,
42 are conducted by a single central organization, the
Little Sisters of the Poor. Of the 78,050 inmates of
these 808 permanent homes, 40,200 are in the Sol-
diers' Homes, 5,701 in the fraternal homes, and 8,362
in the homes of the Little Sisters of the Poor, leaving
23,787, or 30.5 per cent of the total, in all the other
classes of homes. The average number of inmates
per institution for all the permanent homes is 97; for
the Soldiers' Homes, 638; for the fraternal homes, 77;
for the homes of the Little Sisters of the Poor, 199;
and for the other homes, 38.
It is apparent, then, that if homes that are restricted
in their reception of inmates to certain limited classes
are eliminated from the number of permanent homes,
the balance represents a much smaller amount of re-
lief rendered to adults in general than would appear
from the totals. This, is especially noticeable in cer-
tain sections of the country. Thus, by excluding the
Soldiers' Homes alone, the number of inmates of
permanent homes in the East North Central division
is reduced fi'om 22,903 to 7,284, and in the West
North Central division from 9,521 to 3,384. The same
situation affects the statistics as to sex. The total
number of adult males reported as inmates of insti-
tutions at the close of the year was 59,677. In the
Soldiers' Homes there were 40,200, of whom 37,583
were males and 2,617 females (mves or widows of
veterans). If these figures are deducted from the
respective totals, there remain 22,094 males and 35,-
232 females. Viewed from the standpoint of the in-
stitutions of general character, therefore, the females
are in the majority, and while strictly correct, it is
misleading to say that more men than women are per-
manent recipients of public charity. Another signifi-
cant fact is that in five states — Mississippi, North
Dakota, South Dakota, Idaho, and Wyoming-^the
Soldiers' Homes are the only institutions for adults,
while in Oldahoma, of four institutions reported, three
are fi-aternal homes and one a rescue home.
TEMPORARY HOMES.
The temporaiy homes may be loosely divided into
three classes: Shelters for transients, rescue homes for
the wayward or fallen, and homes for the friendless
providing rehef for respectable persons ordinarily
self-supporting but temporarily in need. The first
class includes municipal lodging houses, Salvation
Army industrial homes, immigrant homes, and simi-
lar institutions under the care of associated charities
or other pliilanthropic societies; the second class in-
cludes the Florence Crittenton Missions, Houses of
the Good Shepherd, and similar institutions; and the
third takes in all that are not represented in the other
two classes, particularly homes for women out of
work, homes for working boys and girls, convalescent
homes, etc. With regard to the homes for working
people, only those are included which, so far as could
be learned, are distinctly benevolent in character.
Witliin the past few years a large number of homes
have been established by the Young Women's Chris-
tian Associations and by private corporations wliich
furnish board to working girls at a lower rate than
is usual in boarchng houses. As a rule these houses
are provided rent free and there is no expense for
general superintendence or for interest on investment,
and the sums charged the inmates are intended to
cover no more than the actual cost of running expenses.
In general these homes have not been included,
although the mere fact that such a home meets its
ruiming expenses by receipts from inmates has not
been regarded as the decisive factor.
A better view of the work carried on by these dif-
ferent classes of institutions is obtained from the
record of the number of persons received during the
year than fi"om the number of inmates at any particu-
lar date, and this is set forth in Table 35.
The reports for municipal shelters, immigrant
homes, and private shelters for transients were not
entirely satisfactoi-y and the statistics presented prob-
ably do not represent accurately the full amount of
work done by those classes of institutions. In some
cases officials of municipal shelters refused information
on the ground that the institutions were really a part
of the police system rather than conducted for benev-
olent purposes. The information received from other
institutions also proved to be somewhat vague.
There were 15 immigrant homes reported — 1 in
Maiyland, 4 in Massachusetts, and 10 in New York —
sheltering in all 45,221 persons. Of the 57 homes or
shelters included under this head, 36 homes report-
ing 572,000 persons received during the year were
under private auspices. The Salvation Army indus-
trial homes, being under one centi-al organization, are
shown separately.

BENEVOLENT INSTITUTIONS, 1910.
SEX AND AGE OF INMATES.
When estimates arc reported to the extent to which
they have been by some of these institutions, it is
difficult to obtain accurate statistics for sex. As nearly
as can be ascertained, however, the following repre-
sents' the situation with substantial accuracy:
Table 36

The classification of minors, even up to 18 or 21
years of age, as children renders any satisfactory
age grouping even more difficult than that by sex.
The total number of cliildren reported as inmates
of the institutions was 17,382. Of these, 4,873 were
in permanent homes and 12,509 in temporary homes,
including 5,954 in rescue homes. Of tliis entire
number only 1,986 were rejDorted as received with
parents. There were 2,067 reported as dehnquent,
leaving 13,294 dependent. In view of the fact that
a great majority of the females in rescue homes are
under age and may legitimately be classed as delin-
quents, it is evident that there has been considerable
confusion in makmg the distinction between adults
and children and also between dependent and dehn-
quent children.
Class IV.— HOSPITAIS AND SANITARIUMS.
The institutions included in this class are those
hospitals and sanitariums wliich may be regarded
as benevolent institutions in distinction from those
which are conducted on a distinctively business basis.
In regard to no other class has it been so difficult
to decide the principle on which selection should be
made. Broadly speaking, those hospitals are included
which are open to persons who need treatment, but who
for any reason are unable to meet the full cost. This
has not, however, been the sole basis, for with hospitals,
as with physicians, there is a great deal of charity which
is nevertheless not of a type to cause the institutions to
be classed as benevolent m any such sense as is used
in this report. The element of self-support through
income from pay patients has entered into considera-
tion, but tliishasnotbeen aconclusivetest,fornot infre-
quently a prosperous hospital with a good balance on
its ledger is the one to which the poor or needy may
go with greatest assurance of relief and is popularly
looked upon as really a benevolent institution.
CLASSES OF INSTITUTIONS INCLUDED.
In general tlic following classes of Iiosj)itals and
sanitariums have been included: (1) Public hospi-
tals and sanitariums supported and conducted by
federal, state, county, or municipal authorities, except
those county hospitals which are connected with
pauper asylums; (2) hospitals and sanitariums sup-
ported and conducted by ecclesiastical, missionary,
or philanthropic organizations; (3) hospitals and
sanitariums supported by fraternal or beneficiary
associations; (4) hospitals and sanitariums owned
and conducted by private corporations, but held
under the auspices of some ecclesiastical or benevo-
lent body; and (5) hospitals and sanitariums which
are owned and conducted by private corporations, but
wliich receive patients for free or part-pay treatment,
of their own motion, on contract with public authori-
ties, or in behalf of some benevolent organization.
It is of course recognized that with hospitals as
with educational institutions, the fees charged seldom
cover the full value of the service rendered. This,
however, must be taken for granted, and it is believed
that the Ust as it stands, if not absolutely complete,
fairly represents the benevolent contribution of that
class of institutions.
The mformation obtained concerning the hospitals
and sanitariums covered by this report is presented
in detail, together with the local addresses of the
institutions on pages 268 to 375. Table 38 sum-
marizes the principal statistics by geographic divisions
and states.
MEDICAL AND NURSING STAFF.
It is noticeable that only 60 per cent of the hospitals
and sanitariums make any report of resident physi-
cians. Tliis is due partly to the failure of a large
number to make any full report and partly to the
fact that a considerable number, especially of the
smaller hospitals, have no resident physicians, but are«
each under the care of a superintendent or head nurse,
medical supervision being given by physicians who
were resident in the locality, and who might be and
sometimes were designated as visiting physicians.
There were, however, a number of cases in which the
entire medical fraternity of a town or city were re-
turned as visiting physicians, so that to give a total
under that head would be misleading. It will be
noted that the average number of resident physicians
for each hospital and sanitarium was nearly 5, while
according to the report for 1904 the average, if all the
hospitals made reports, was only 2.
The number of hospitals maintaining training
schools for nurses has increased from 867 to 1,118,
representing the same proportion of the entire num-
ber of hospitals as in 1904. The average number of
nurses per hospital or sanitarium, however, has ad-
vanced from 15 to 20.
HOSPITALS AND SANITARIUMS.
47
The number of beds was reported for the first time
at the census of 1910, so that comparisons with 1904
can not be made for this item.
PATIENTS REPORTED.
It is noticeable that 202 of the hospitals reported
gave no report of the number of inmates at the close
of the year. A considerable number of these, espe-
cially municipal hospitals for contagious diseases, had
no inmates, but in the great majority of cases the lack
was evidently duo to a failure to make returns. The
report for 1904 states that a number of institutions
failed to report inmates at the close of the year, but
does not give any figures, so that comparison in this
respect is scarcely possible. The fact that the num-
ber of hospitals reporting the number of persons
treated during the year is much larger than that of
the hospitals reporting the number of inmates at the
close of the year is explained partly by the fact that
even those that had no inmates at a given date treated
patients at some time during the year, and is also
partly due to the fact that wliile hospitals usually
record the mcoming and outgoing patients a current
daily report is seldom kept.
The returns for the financial items are the least
satisfactory of any obtained. Only 79.5 per cent of
the total number of hospitals and sanitaiiums reported
gave the amounts received, only 78.6 per cent gave
expenditures, and only 73.8 per cent gave the
value of property. Some of the federal Iiospitals did
not make any separate reports under the different
heads, and in the case of the army post hospitals it
was often impracticable to give any valuation to the
hospital projjerty as distmct from the other property
of the post. In other cases also hospital property
seemed to be so mvolved mth other property that a
separate statement was impracticable.
The following statement shows the distribution by
geograpluc divisions of the number of hospitals and
sanitariums, the number of beds reported, the num-
ber of inmates at the close of the year, and the number
of patients treated during the year, the averages per
hospital also being given for the last tlireo items:

The ratio between the number of hospitals and
sanitariums and the population for the respective
geographic divisions was as follows :
Mountain One hospital or sanitarium to every 23,725 inhabitants.
New England One hospital or sanitarium to every 28,244 inhabitants.
Pacific One hospital or sanitarium to every 36,775 inhabitants.
Middle Atlantic One hospital or sanitarium to every 38,631 inhabitants.

West South Central . - One hospital or sanitarium to every 125,493 inhabitants.
East South Central. . . One hospital or sanitarium to every 135,644 inhabitants.
The high rank of the Mountain and Pacific divisions
is noticeable.

DISPENSARIES.
Among the questions asked- of each hospital was one
as to the operation of a chspensary in connection with
the hospital. Wlienever the answer was in the afFu-ma-
tive, special inquny was made to learn (1) whether the
dispensaiy was practicaUy distinct m its operation
from the hospital, in which case a separate report was
called for; (2) whether it was practically the out-
patient department of the hospital, and so identified
with it as not to permit of a separate report, in which
case the number of persons treated in the dispensaiy,
if given, was put in a footnote; or (3) whether it was
really only a pharmacy, in wliich case it was onutted
from the report. In a number of cases it appeared
that no exact distinction was made by the hospital
between bed-patients and out-patients. So far as
possible, especially when the number of persons re-
ported as inmates at the close of the year exceeded the
number of beds, special effort, was made to learn the
exact situation, but not always with satisfactory re-
sults. In the main, however, the figures in the general
tables and the accompanying summaries for inmates
and for persons received during the year refer to bed-
patients, the out-patients being reported in connection
with the dispensaries.
TREATMENT OF TXIBERCULOSIS.
A most important feature of hospital development
has been the special attention given to the treatment
of tuberculosis. Table 39 shows the number of hos-
pitals and sanitariums and of dispensaries which
reported special arrangements for such treatment.
The most noticeable smgle feature is the number of
dispensaries m Pennsylvania, most of these bebig re-
cently established state dispensaries.

Class v.— DISPENSARIES.
In this class are included those institutions, vari-
ously termed dispensaries, clinics, or infiimaries,
where medical or surgical treatment may be obtained
gratuitously or at a nominal price, but which do not
receive resident patients. Such institutions are oper-
ated either independently or in connection with some
hospital or medical coUege. In the case of those
connected with hospitals the dispensary, or clinic as
it is usually termed, is practically the out-patient
department of the hospital, i. e., the department
which treats patients who do not occupy beds in the
hospital. Sometimes these cluiics are so thoroughly
organized and so distinct from the hospital with
which they are connected as to be practically separate
organizations; on the other hand, they are often so
intimately comiected, not only occupying the same
building, but served by the same medical and nursing
staff, that hospital and dispensary are practically one
institution.
There are also cases where the dispensary or clinic,
as it is often called, is little more than a pharmacy,
where patients can obtain medicines on the order of
some physician, whether connected with the hospital
or not. Dispensaries of this type are not included.
The questions asked covered the number of persons
on the medical and nursing staff at the close of the
year, the number of treatments given, the number of
different persons treated durmg the year, and the
same financial inquiries as for the other classes of
institutions covered by the present report.
The returns, so far at least as statistical presenta-
tion is concerned, can scarcely be considered as satis-
factory. Only about one-third of the dispensaries
made any financial report at all. This is due partly
to the fact that in the case of many dispensaries
identified with hospitals, the financial reports for the
hospitals covered the dispensaries also; a notable
instance being the case of the Pennsylvania State
Dispensaries for treatment of tuberculosis, whose
financial statistics are included in the report of a
single sanitarium, in the hospital table. In other
cases the dispensaries seemed to be on such an informal
basis that records of any kind were very incomplete.
In reporting the number on the medical staff at the
close of the year there appears to have been no imif orm
basis adopted by the dispensaries, one institution
reporting 245, while in other cases the numbers re-
ported were 183, 174, 121, 80, etc. The majority of
these dispensaries were connected with medical col-
leges, and the students seem to have been registered as
attendant physicians.
The greatest difficulty, however, came in connection
with the effort to distinguish between treatments given
and persons treated. It was impossible, even with
DISPENSARIES.
51
repeated correspondence, to obtain satisfactory in-
formation on this point. In many cases but one of
these two questions was answered — sometimes one,
sometimes the other — and not infrequently the same
figures were given in answer to both questions. So
verj' unsatisfactory was the result that no column
showing "treatments during the year" has been given
in the general tables, though such information as the
schedules furnished has been included in the summary
table. Table 40 presents, by geographic divisions, the
total number of persons reported as treated, and the
total number of treatments given.
Another difficulty arose from a doubt in some cases
as to whether the hospitals reporting always made
the distinction between out-patients and bed-patients.
Some undoubtedly made tliis distinction, others ap-
parently did not, but the situation was not sufficiently
clear to warrant a distinct statement. In the main,
however, as stated in connection with the summarv
for hospitals, the figures there given are for bed-
patients, while those in this table are for out-patients^

INSTITUTIONS FOR THE BLIND AND DEAF.
53
Class VI.- INSTITUTIONS FOE THE BLIND AND DEAF,
In this class aro included those institutions for the
care, education, and training of blind and deaf persons
which make special provision for those who are unfitted
for or unable to meet the expense of purely educa-
tional institutions, whether boarding or day schools.
The great majority of these institutions are supported
and conducted by the different state governments,
and the remainder are mostly under the auspicies of
benevolent organizations, private or ecclesiastical.
Day schools and ordinary boarding schools conducted
on a distinctly business basis are not included.
The report for 1904 gave simply the total number of
persons received into and resident in the institution,
by sex. As wiU be seen from the following summary,
this report gives also the number of adults and chil-
dren, classifying them as "Blind only," "Deaf only,"
and "Blind and deaf," and further noting the dis-
tinction between the deaf who were able to speak
and those who were unable to speak.
Seven states — Arizona, Delaware, Nevada, New
Hampshire, Vennont, Washington, and Wyoming,
reported no institutions of tliis class. All these states,
however, make provision for the training of blind and
deaf residents of the state in such way as the state
authorities may judge best. Vermont and New
Hampshire send most of those for whom they provide
to private institutions m Massachusetts and Con-
necticut. The western states named frequently make
arrangements with state institutions of contiguous
states. There is probably no one class of persons for
whose education and training such complete provision
is made as for the blind and deaf.
The foUomng tables show the number of institutions
under state and private management, respectively,
together with the number of inmates at the close of
the year, the amount expended during the year, and
the value of property at the close of the year for each
class; also the percentage under these heads. It
should be said that a considerable number of the
private institutions, includmg some large ones under
the care of the Roman Catholic ecclesiastical bodies,
declined to furnish the financial information called
for. In one case the value of property is included in
the summary tables, though it is not shown in the
general tables, where it would be identified with the
particular institution.

A review of this table shows that the institutions
under private management arc almost entirely in the
eastern states, chiefly Massachusetts, New York, and
Illinois, and that they report a large proportion of the
inmates and finances for those states. One institution
alone in Massachusetts, the Perkms Institution for the
Bluid, reported 292 of the 794 inmates, $165,699 of the
$378,341 expended, and $3,299,627 of the $4,217,907
reported as the value of property for private institu-
tions in that state, and the situation is similar in regard
to some of the institutions in New York City. In the
West and South almost tlie only private institutions
are those carried on under the auspices of ecclesias-
tical bodies.

1 Percentage not shown for persons both blind and deaf, as base is less than 100.
From these tables the following general facts ap-
pear: (1) The number of deaf persons under care and
training is more than double the number of those who
are bUnd only; (2) the number of those who are both
blind and deaf is so small as to be practically negli-
gible for purposes of percentages or comparison; (3)
the deaf persons able to speak outnumber those
unable to speak; (4) the children outnumber the adults,
forming 63 per cent of the entire number under care,
54.9 per cent of those who were blind only, and 66.9
per cent of those who were deaf only, but including
only 13 of the 54 who were both blind and deaf; and
(5) of the two classes of deaf persons the children
number 73 per cent of those able to speak, and 59.7
per cent of those unable to speak; of the adults, how-
ever, 27 per cent only were able to speak and 40.3 per
cent were unable to speak.
The geographic distribution depends to a consid-
erable degree upon the emphasis laid on different
forms of training by the different states. Some states,
as Indiana, give special attention to the industrial
training of adults, both blind and deaf, and in those
states the percentage of adults is naturaUy greater.

I Percentages not shown for persons both blind and deaf as base is less than 100.
In goneral, admission to these institutions is limited,
except under special conditions, to those under 21
years of age, which accounts to a considerable degree
for the preponderance of children. The distribution
by sex of the mmates of institutions for the blind
and deaf is given in Tables 48 and 49.
The tables show a notable uniformity. Of the total
number of inmates 52.9 per cent were males and 47.1
per cent females; of the blind only, 51 per cent were
males and 49 per cent females; for the deaf only, the
corresponding percentages were 53.9 and 46.1, respec-
tively. Of those who were both bhnd and deaf, how-
ever, 33 were females and 21 males; but, as already
stated, the numbers involved are too small to furnish
the basis for any satisfactory conclusions. The geo-
graphic distribution follows, ^vith no important excep-
tion, the general proportions indicated above.
SPECIAL SUMMARIES.
Under this heading are presented summaries of cer-
tain special phases of the statistics of benevolent
institutions, together with descriptive text and ana-
lytical tables. Persons imder the care of institutions
and adults and children in institutions at the close of
the year, and persons received into institutions during
the year are presented by classes of institutions and
sex in Tables 50 to 56; Tables 57 to 59 show the
statistics of the placement of children in homes and
institutions; Tables 60 to 63 give the number of in-
stitutions of the different classes and the inmates
of these mstitutions grouped according to the char-
acter of the supervisory agency ; Tables 64 to 72 pre-
sent the income of institutions during the year under
the head of public appropriations, donations, and
receipts from care of inmates; the expenditures dur-
ing the year for running expenses; the value of land,
buildings, etc., and of invested funds at the close
of the year; and Tables 73 to 77 give the number of
different classes of institutions with the number of
inmates under federal, state, county, and municipal
care.
SEX AND AGE OF INMATES.
The value of a classification by sex of the persons
cared for or reUoved by benevolent institutions varies
considerably according to the character of the different
classes of institutions. There is, for example, little, if
any, value in such classification for the imnates of
hospitals. Except for the purposes of medical inves-
tigation in regard to certain types of disease, whether
a general hospital receives more men or women is a
fact of Uttle significance, and such medical investiga-
tion belongs to a different department of census work.
It is of interest, however, to know- whether the majority
of adults who receive the benefit of general relief are
men or women, and whether more boys or girls appear
in the records of the dependent classes. So, also, it
is of interest to know whether sex is an important
factor in the constitution of the transient element in
the population of these institutions.
The conditions as to sex have been set forth and
discussed in connection with the summaries of the
statistics for the different classes of institutions. In
Tables 50-53 they are summarized for all classes of
institutions. Table 50 gives statistics for aU persons
under the care of benevolent institutions at the close
of the year. Table 51 for persons received into insti-
tutions during the year, and Tables 52 and 53 for
children and adults in the institutions at the close of
the year.
It should bo noted that Table 50 includes both
resident inmates of institutions, and those outside of
institutions but under their care or supervision, wliile
Tables 52 and 53 are confined to those adults and cliil-
dren actually resident in institutions, and Table 51
includes all persons, adults and children, received
into institutions, except patients treated in dispen-
saries and cliildren received by societies under their
general care, aside from those received into receiving
homes. The sex records for the two classes excluded
are in the maui incomplete and unsatisfactory; the
children received into the receiving homes of societies
for the protection and cure of children are, however,
already accounted for under the head of institutions
for the care of children.

SEX AND AGE OF INMATES.
65
The lack of exact classification by age and the indefi-
inite use of the terms "adults" and "cliildren" make
any general comparison with the population unsatis-
factory. The foUowuig statement, however, compar-
ing the sex percentages of the general popidation with
the percentages for the persons included in the tables
of the report will be of interest:
Table 54

124.8
The dividing lines of age in the two statements are
not identical. As ah'eady stated, under the head of
adults are included a considerable number of females
from IS to 21 years of age and even younger, and prob-
ably some males under 21. It is not probable, how-
ever, that the percentages would be materially affected
were the exact figures available, and the proportions
shown may be accepted on the whole as fairly correct.
The figures indicate, therefore, that the number of
males who for one reason or another are recipients of
general benevolence is considerably larger than the
corresponding number of females.
It is noticeable, however, that this preponderance
of males is more evident in the figures for persons
received into institutions during the year than in
those for persons under their care at the close of the
year, as is shown by the following statement giving
the percentages of males and females falling under
these two heads for the several classes of institutions,
and also the number of males to every 100 females:

The exceptionally large percentage of males received
into homes for adults or adults and children is due
chiefly to the fact that, as stated in a previous section
of this report, of the transients provided for in munici-
pal shelters. Salvation Army mdustrial homes and
similar institutions, the overwhelming majority are
men. So also the predominance of males iia the figures
for hospitals is due in large measure to the number of
soldiers and sailors treated in the marme and post
hospitals. It is also to be remembered that the pres-
ence in homes for adults, or adults and children, of a
large number of pensioned soldiers and sailors helps to
raise the percentage of males for that class of
institutions.
The following table shows, by geographic divisions,
the percentage of each sex under the various heads:

PLACEMENT OF CHILDREIT.
As already stated, probably the most important
feature distinguishing the present report from that for
1904 is its record of placement of children in homes.
That work, as conducted by institutions for the care of
children, and by societies for the protection and care of
children, is set forth m detail for each class of institu-
tions in Tables 19 and 28, pages 28 and 36.
Table 57 gives a general survey of the entire work,
as conducted by these two classes of organizations.
9531°— l:? 5
Institutions which care for adults are omitted, because
except pei'haps in individual cases they do not engage
in this line of work.
It is to be remembered also that the totals given do
not by any means represent the aggregate number of
children placed, for no mention is made of the number
placed by officials or organizations not included in this
report, as officers of the poqr, almshouses, reforma-
tories, etc.

PLACEMENT OF CHILDREN.
67
Of the entire number of institutions specifically for
the care of chUdron, practically aU the societies and
45.4 per cent of the homes for cliildren are engaged in
this work. Of the total number of chihh'en placed by
them 72.1 per cent were placed in families and 27.9
per cent in institutions, these latter being placed en-
tirely by the societies for the protection and care of
children. Of those placed in families, 51.8 per cent
were placed by institutions for the care of children
and 48.2 by societies for the protection and care of
children, the average for the institutions being 29 and
for the societies 71.
The statistics in regai'd to the sex of the cliildren
placed are not fuUy satisfactory, as a number of organi-
zations (12.9 per cent of the total) made no report on
this point. Of the children whose sex was reported
55.8 per cent were boys and 44.2 per cent girls.
Of those placed by institutions, the boys and girls
were almost equal; of those placed by societies in
famihes, 54.6 per cent were boys and 45.4 per cent
girls; and of those placed by societies m institutions,
65.5 per cent were boys and 34.5 per cent girls.
The following comparison of the number of boys
and girls reported as placed in famihes and in institu-
tions is of interest as showing the much greater pre-
ponderance of boys among children jjlaced in institu-
tions as compared with those placed in families. Were
it possible it would be interesting to know just the
type of institutions in which the children were placed.

• Includes those whose sex was not reported.
The distribution by states of the number of organi-
zations engaged in this work is given in Table 59, to-
gether with the number of children placed, and the
average per organization.
New York is far in the lead in the number of chil-
dren placed, owing very largely, as explamed m con-
nection with Table 26, to the work of tliree large child-
placing societies. Pennsylvania comes next, followed
by Massachusetts, Ohio, New Jersey, Indiana, Califor-
nia, Illinois, Iowa, and Michigan. It is noticeable that
the largest averages per institution are found in the
North Pacific states, due to the fact that the principal
effort in each state is made by an organization which
has state-wide jurisdiction.

A fact which should be kept in mind in connection
with these statistics is that there is a certain amount
of replacing of children. If the home selected for a
child does not appear to be the best place for it, the
society which selected the home is required to remove
it and find another home. It is probable, however,
that this has not been done to any great extent, at
least to such a degree as to affect materially the totals
or proportions.
In general it should be said that this class of work
is by no means thoroughly organized. There are a
considerable number of organizations whose existence
as yet is merely formal, and which have not commenced
active operations. Even in states which, like Indiana,
have an elaborate system of boards of guardians,
comparatively few are well established, and some seem
to have acquired but a limited conception of the work
they are organized to do. Of those that are in opera-
tion, many seem to have considerable difficulty in
realizing the necessity, or even advisability, of keeping
exact and complete records. It is doubtless due to
this that so many failed to make any report of sex.
In a single state, out of 533 {^•hildren reported as placed
in institutions, the sex was reported for only 69.

SUPERVISING AGENCY OF INSTITUTION.
69
In the report for 1904, there was a general classifica-
tion of institutions as pubUc, private, and ecclesiasti-
cal. As stated m that report, "the fh'st group com-
prised all those du'ectly supervised and maintamed by
the Federal Government, individual states or civil
divisions of the latter; the second, all those managed
by private corporations not subject to the control of
any general body or organization, though a few estab-
lishments mamtauied by fraternal orders were in-
cluded; and the thu-d, all mstitutions directly super-
vised and supported by religious denominations,
orders, or groups of churches."
The present report has adopted the general classifi-
cation of institutions into public and private, including
imder the former head institutions operated under
federal, state, county, and municipal authority, and
under the latter head, other institutions operated imder
the laws governing private corporations, associations,
or individual enterprises.
The private institutions have been subclassified into
those mider the supervision of Protestant, Roman
CathoUc, Jewish, and other private organizations,
respectively. Under the head of Protestant are in_
eluded all mstitutions that are tUstinctively Protestant
in character, as indicated by their title, description, or
avowed purpose, whether under the dhect control of
an ecclesiastical body, or merely affiliated with one.
Under the head of Roman Catholic are included both
those institutions wliich are operated directly by the
Roman Cathohc Church or a rehgious order of that
church, and those conducted by members of some
Roman Cathohc order and popularly recognized as
Roman Cathohc, although not owned by the order.
Under the head of "Other private institutions" are
included all private organizations not specifically bo-
longing under one of the other heads. Among these
last are the majority of private hospitals, and homes
and hospitals under the control of fraternal or bene-
ficiary organizations.
Dispensaries and societies for the protection and care
of children have been omitted from this classification.
In many cases it is difficult to decide whether the so-
cieties should be regarded as pubUc or private, while
the majority of the dispensaries are either idenftfied
•with hospitals already included in the classification or
are of very vague and uncertain type in this respect.
The following tables show the per cent distribution,
according to supervising agency, of the institutions
and of their inmates:

A comparison of Tables 61 and 62 shows a marked
difference in the rank of the different classes of agen-
cies in respect to the number of institutions and of
inmates. In total number of institutions "Other"
private mstitutions lead, followed by Protestant, Ro-
man Catholic, Public, and Jewish. In total number of
inmates Roman Catholic institutions lead, followed by
"Other" Private, PubUc, Protestant, and Jewish.
The public institutions form only 13.7 per cent of the
total number, but report 27.2 per cent of the inmates.
Protestant institutions number 19.6 per cent of the
total, but report only 11.6 per cent of the inmates;
while the Roman Catholic institutions number 18.9
per cent of the total, but report 30.4 per cent of the
iimiates. Of the total number of adults reported, 37
per cent are in pubUc institutions, 21.8 per cent in
Roman Catholic institutions, and 10.4 per cent in
Protestant institutions; of the children 15.8 per cent
are in public, 13.1 per cent in Protestant, and 40.7
per cent in Roman Catholic institutions.

BENEVOLENT INSTITUTIONS, 1910.
FINANCES OF INSTITUTIONS.
The general summary of the income, expenditures,
and value of property of institutions is given in Tables
12-16 preceding. Tables 64-69 show for each class of
institutions the amount of income from public appro-
priations, from donations, and from care of inmates;
the amount disbursed for running expenses; and the
value of land, buildings, and equipment owned.
Under the heading "Public appropriations" are in-
cluded all funds received from federal, state, county,
or mimicipal authorities, whether in the form of regular
appropriations or subsidies or of specific grants.
Under the heading "Donations" are included per-
sonal gifts, legacies, pubhc collections, receipts from
entertainments, appropriations by philanthropic or
missionary societies, assessments by fraternal or bene-
ficiary organizations, and other receipts of this type.
Under the heading "Care of inmates" are included
all sums paid into the institutions for the care of indi-
viduals, whether by the individuals themselves, by
friends, or by organizations.
Under the heading "Other sources" in the general
tables are grouped aU receipts not classified by the
institutions themselves, together with those which it
was impracticable to include under any one of the other
three heads — "Public Appropriations," "Donations,"
or "Care of inmates." Income from invested funds
rentals, interest, proceeds of labor of inmates or sales
of products, and loans are some of the receipts so
included. In regard to the last-named, it should be
stated that wherever the amounts were known, loan
transactions have been eliminated. Cash balances
were also eliminated from both receipts and payments,
wherever it was possible to ascertain the amount of
such balances. In general, therefore, the term "Other
sources" was of necessity so elastic as to render it
inadvisable to present separately the receipts included.
In dealing with expenditures, it was also found
difScult to distinguish between "Running expenses"
and "Permanent improvements." The cost of a new
building, of an annex to an old one, or of a new piece
of land could be easily classified, but it became evident,
from an examination of the schedules received, that in
a number of cases considerable amounts representing
costs of improvements had been included under
"Running expenses." The statistics, therefore, are
not as exact as could be wished. In many cases the
total expense only was given, and when further in-
quiry failed to elicit specific information, it was
assumed that the entire amount expended was for
" Running expenses." Because of the resulting incom-
pleteness of the returns, no special summary for "Per-
manent improvements" is given.
With regard to the value of property, certain con-
ditions must be kept in mind. There is no uniform
basis for appraisal or estimate of the value of land,
buildmgs, etc. In a number of cases, a hospital, an
orphanage, or a home for the aged is only a part of a
great institution, and to decide what part of the entire
property should be regarded as belonging to the par-
ticular benevolent institution under consideration is
practically impossible. This is true of a considerable
number of the Roman Catholic homes, and of practi-
cally all of the United States post hospitals. Another
factor to be considered is the difference between origi-
nal cash cost and present market value, some insti-
tutions apparently giving the original cost, others the
market value. As far as the requisite data were
obtamable the valuation given in this report for
properties belonging to an institution represents the
equity of the institution in such properties, being the
total valuation less such obligations as are secured by
mortagages or deeds of trust pledging the properties
for the payment of debt obligations. The amounts
given under "Invested funds" seem to be limited in
some cases to bonds, stocks, etc. In other cases they
apparently include the value of investments in real
estate whose rentals are reckoned as income.
Another, and possibly even more important, phase
of the subject is the evident lack of careful accounting
by the institutions. In many cases the figures given
on the schedules apparently bore little or no relation
to the questions asked, and considerable correspond-
ence was required in order to secure a statement that
should fairly represent the situation.
Comparison ivitJi report for 1904- — These conditions,
combined with apparently different bases of inquiry,
make any satisfactory comparison with the report for
1904, as aheadymtimated, difficult and unsatisfactory.
That report made no reference to receipts from dona-
tions, to value of property, or to expenditures for per-
manent improvements. It reported "Annual subsi-
dies from public funds," but apparently did not include
.special appropriations under this head, as is done in
the present report. Income from pay inmates also
seems to have been limited in the 1904 report to pay-
ments by inmates, whereas under the corresponding
head in this report are mcluded, not merely direct
payments, but receipts for this purpose from relatives
or friends, benevolent organizations, etc. That there
is a radical difference in the basis of report is evident
from a comparison of the averages. According to the
report for 1904, the total income from pay inmates
for 4,207 mstitutions was $14,848,508, an average per
institution of $3,529. Out of 5,408 institutions covered
by the present report, 2,710 reported their total in-
come under this head as $30,320,289, an average per
institution of $11,188. Even assuming that in 1904,
as in 1910, only haK the total number of institutions
reported receipts from this source, the average for
1904 would be $7,057, showing an average gain per
institution of $4,131, an increase which could scarcely
be possible if the statistics in the two reports were on
the same basis.
The situation is essentially the same in regard to the
amounts given m the two reports for ' ' Runnmg expen-
ses" and "Cost of mamtenance," which would seem
to be comparable. The total amount reported in
1904 for "Cost of maintenance" was $55,577,633, an

average per institution of $13,211; or if tlic same
allowance be made as in 1910 for institutions not
reporting (22 per cent), an average of $16,939. In
the 1910 report tlie total given for running expenses
is $94,658,836, an average per institution reporting of
$22,220. That there should have been a gain of $5,281
in the average cost of maintenance, or running expen-
ses, for so largo a number of institutions of such dif-
ferent types, is scarcely possible, and it seems clear,
as already indicated, page 22, that the terms "Cost
of mamtenance" and "Running expenses," as used in
the two reports, are not identical in meaning, and that
the statistics given under these heads are therefore
not comparable.

FINANCES OF INSTITUTIONS.
n
Table 70 gives by classes of institutions the number
and per cent distribution of institutions reporting the
receipt of income from public appropriations, dona-
tions, and care of inmates; Table 71 gives the amounts
reported under these heads; and Table 72 gives the
average per institution of the receipts under these
heads, of the amounts expended for rumiing expenses,
and of the value of property m land, buildings, etc.
Certain general facts call for specific reference, these
being (1) the large number of institutions receivmg
public aid and the proportionately still larger amount
of aid received; (2) the comparatively small amount
actually received for "Care of inmates" (except by
hospitals) notwithstanding the considerable precen-
tage of institutions reporting such income; and (3)
the large percentage of institutions reportmg the
receipt of donations, contrasted mth the small per-
centage of the total income formed by thus class of
receipts.

In general, these facts seem to indicate an increased
sense, on the part of the state, of its responsibihty for
the care of those who are sometimes called "wards of
the state." In the past benevolent institutions have
been generally regarded as representmg the element
of personal or private sympathy for mdividual dis-
tress. There appears to be arismg, however, a reali-
zation that even where distress does not necessarily
go so far as pauperism, it involves detriment, if not
danger, to the welfare of the community, and that
dependents of all classes may properly come witliin
the scope of public supervision and control. This has
already been indicated in connection with the statis-
tics for the different classes of benevolent institutions,
but it comes out still more clearly in these tables,
which show that 35 per cent of the total number of
institutions are recipients of public aid, as distin-
guished from private donations; that 31.8 per cent of
the total income of all institutions is from public
appropriations, and that the highest average receipts
per institution from any source are from such appro-
priations.
Attention has already been called to the large num-
ber of institutions for the bHnd and deaf which are
practically supported by pubUc appropriations, but
it is noticeable that 46.3 per cent of the societies for
the protection and care of children, 45.6 per cent of
the hospitals and sanitariums, and 39.8 per cent of
the institutions for the care of children receive pubUc
aid. On the other hand, the donations, which ordi-
narily are regarded as the expression of the benevo-
lence of the community, represented only 16.6 per
cent of the total income of the institutions, figuring
largely only in the returns for societies for the protec-
tion and care of children, and for dispensaries.
The lack of material for comparison in these respects
with the situation in 1904 makes it impossible to
speak very positively, but there appears to be suffi-
cient basis for the behef that the tendency is toward
the placing of all types of benevolent institutions
under governmental care, and the gradual elimination
of private support and thus of private control.
80
BENEVOLENT INSTITUTIONS, 1910.
INSTITUTIONS UNDER GOVERNMENTAL CARE.
The increase since 1904 in the number oi benevolent
mstitutions under public, or goveriunental care, and
the even greater increase in the amounts appropriated
for their maintenance, is significant of the changing
attitude on the part of federal, state, county, and
mimicipal governments toward the dependent classes
or "wards of the state."
In 1904 the total number of institutions classed as
public was 485; in 1910 it was 636, an increase of 151,
or 31.1 per cent. The total amount reported in 1904
as amaual subsidies from public funds was $6,089,226 ;
in 1910 the total pubhc appropriations amounted to
$37,677,802, an increase of $31,588,576, or 518.8 per
cent. As abeady stated, page 72, it seems probable
that some items are included in the present report
wliich were not included m 1904, but with all due
allowance for such differences of method, it is eviilent
that there has been a great advance in the amount of
aid given to benevolent institutions from pubhc funds.
Tables 74 to 77 show those under federal, state,
comity, and municipal care, respectively, with the
number of inmates at the close of the year classified
as adults and cliildren, together with the income and
expenditures during the year and thevalueof property
at the close of the year, for all institutions under each
form of governmental contract.
It will be noticed that there are only two classes of
histitutions imder federal care — homes for the care of
adults, or adults and children, and hospitals and
sanitariums. The former are confuied chiefly to
homes for soldiers, sailors, and marines; the latter
include marme, naval, and army post hospitals, and
certain institutions for the treatment of soldiers and
sailors who suffer from tuberculosis.
Institutions under state care include four classes;
institutions for the care of cliildren, homes for adults,
or adults and children, hospitals and sanitariums, and
institutions for the bhnd and deaf. Among the insti-
tutions for the care of children are a number of sol-
diers' and saUors' orphans' homes, some state public
schools, and a few general homes; the homes for adults,
or adults and cliildren are chiefly soldiers' homes ; and
the hospitals and sanitariums include a number of in-
stitutions for the treatment of tuberculosis, and sev-
eral miners' hospitals, especially in Pennsylvania and
West Virginia.
Institutions under county care are chiefly county
homes for cliildren and institutions for the treatment
of tuberculosis.
Institutions under municipal care include detention
homes for chilch-en, municipal lodging houses, and
municipal hospitals, the last-named class being chiefly
for contagious diseases.
The following table shows the number of federal,
state, county, and municipal institutions reported,
with the total number of inmates and the average
number per institution reported at the close of the
year; and the expenditures and value of property,
with the averages under each head per institution

The relatively low expenditures and liigh value of
property of municipal institutions are due largely to
the fact that the municipal hospitals for contagious
diseases require a heavy outlay for buildings, etc.,
but as a rule cost comparatively little for rumiing ex-
penses owing to theu' infrequent use. The inclusion,
among state institutions, of the majority of the insti-
tutions for the bUnd and deaf, raises aU the figures in
that class, wliUe the sokhers' homes, both state and
federal, are all large mstitutions.
