 MATHEMATICS 
 
 ITHACA, NEW YORK 
 1883 
 
This list of works relating to Mathematics (reprinted from “The Li- 
 brary of Cornell University,” Nos. 2 to 6) includes such allied subjects as As- 
 tronomy, Engineering, and Physics. 
 
 In the scheme of classification the general divisions of the subject are 
 placed first, followed by collective works and miscellaneous applications, and these 
 in turn by special subjects arranged in alphabetical order. 
 
 The Library is indebted to Professor J. E. Oliver for aid in the classifica- 
 tion of titles; but, owing to the circumstances attending the publication of the 
 list in serial form, some inconsistencies will doubtless be found.

REFERENCES ON MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT IN THE 
 
 UNITED 
 
 The municipal reports of American cities form the 
 original material for a study of their government. 
 Lists of such reports as are to be found in the Uni- 
 versity Library have been printed in vol. ii. pp. 
 39-42 and 61-2 of the Library Bulletin. As there is 
 no comprehensive work relating to the subjeet of 
 our munieipal institutions, it has been thought that 
 a list of sueh literature as exists in the form of arti- 
 cles in periodicals and occasional lectures and ad- 
 dresses might be useful. The references are divided, 
 so as to correspond to the lectures in the course on 
 this subject given during the spring term of 1887. 
 Nearly all are to books and pamphlets in English, 
 to be found in the University Library. The titles 
 of articles printed in periodicals before January, 1882, 
 may be found in Poole’s Index. 
 
 Local Government Generally. 
 
 An outline sketch of local administration should 
 precede the special study of city government. 
 
 .Short accounts of the systems of local government 
 of the principal countries of continental Europe are 
 given in the Cobden Club Essays: Local Government 
 and Taxation (London, 1875), edited by J. W. Pro- 
 byn. See also E. Pechard’s De Id administration de 
 la France (2 v. Paris, 1851), with ai^pendix on muni- 
 cipal organization in Europe. 
 
 The best short description of English local gov- 
 ernment is iM. 1 ). Chalmers’s I.ocal Goz-ernment 
 {“ English Citizen ” Series, London, 1883). ^ce 
 also I.ocal Administration (“Imperial Parliament” 
 Series, London, 1887) by Win. Rathbonc, Albert 
 Pell and P'. C. Montague. P'or still shorter account 
 read chap. xv. of May’s Constitutional History, and 
 article on “Local Government in Phigland” by E. J. 
 Giddings in the Political Science Quarterly for Decem- 
 ber, 1887. Supplement Chalmers with Cobden Club 
 Essays : Local Government a 7 id luxation in the United 
 Kingdom (London, 1882), edited by J. W. Probyn. 
 The most exhaustive work on Phiglish local offices 
 is Riulol[)h Gneist’s Self-goi'ernment : Commuiialver- 
 fassung u. Verwaltungsgerichte in England (untrans- 
 lated, 3d ed., 1876). P'or cpiite full bibliograjdiy see 
 Gomme’s Literature of Local Institutimis (London, 
 1886). 
 
 The best short outline of local government in the 
 United States is an article by .S. A. Galpin on 
 “Minor Political Divisions of the United States” 
 in Gen. P'. A. Walker’s Statistical Atlas of the United 
 States. The papers on the local institutions of sev- 
 eral of the .States in the Johns Hopkins University 
 
 STATES. 
 
 Studies m Historical and Political Scieiice are es- 
 pecially valuable. John Fiske’s lecture on “ The 
 Town Meeting,” delivered at the Royal Institution, 
 was printed in Harper’s Magazine, vol. Ixx. pp. 
 265-272, and in his American Political Ideas (N. Y. 
 1885). For comparison of American and foreign 
 methods, read R P. Porter’s article “Local Govern- 
 ment : at Home and Abroad,” Princetofi Revieiv 
 (July, 1879, N. s. vol iv. p 172), and reprinted sep- 
 arately. For further references on local self-gov- 
 ernment see W. F. Foster’s Monthly Referetice Lists, 
 vol. ii. pp. 23-29, and his pamphlet of References oti 
 Political and Economic Topics, p. 24. 
 
 For Canada, see J. G. Bourinot’s “ Local Govern- 
 ment in Canada : an historical study,” in Transac- 
 tions of the Royal Society of Canada for 1886, vol iv. 
 sec. ii. pp. 42-70. Printed separately by the pub- 
 lishers, and reprinted, with a letter on the municipal 
 system of Ontario, in the 5th series of the Johns 
 Hopkins Studies. 
 
 European Cities. 
 
 For the purposes of comparison, a short study 
 should be made of the governments of typical Euro- 
 pean cities. Foreign experienee is of very little 
 assistance in the solution of the general inoblem of 
 municii)al government in the United .States, but it 
 may be useful in indicating improved methods of 
 administration in particular departments of a eity 
 government. Several cities that illustrate different 
 forms of municipal government may be taken as 
 exam[)les. 
 
 London. 
 
 .Si)eclally excepted from the operation of the Mu- 
 nicipal Corporations Act of 1835. For outline of 
 government read Chalmers, chap. x. For full de- 
 scription see J. F. B. Firth’s Miuticipal London 
 (1876) and his Reform of I.ondon Govcriimcnt and 
 of City Guilds (“ Imperial Parliament” .Series, Lon- 
 don, 1888). For history of the corporation consult 
 W. J Loftie’s History of London (2d ed., 1884), and 
 the same author’s smaller work, I.ondon, published 
 in 1887 in I'Veeman’s series on “English Historic 
 Towns.” Both books are based on new material, 
 part of it recently discovered by Bishop Stubbs. For 
 additional referenees, see Gomme, ])p. 122-134. 
 
 'I'here have been a great many articles on the 
 municipal government of London in recent periodi- 
 cal literature. Among them may be cited those by 
 W. Newall, Contemporary Review, vol. xxii. p. 73

 CORNELL UNLVERSLTY. 
 
 (1873), and vol. xxv. p 437 (1875) ; W. M. Torrens, 
 Nmeteenth Century fi88o), vol. viii. p. 766; Aider- 
 man Cotton, Benj. Scott, City Chamberlain, and Sir 
 Arthur Hobhouse in Co 7 itemporary Review, vol. xli. 
 (1882), pp. 72, 308, and 404 respectively; and the 
 Westniijister Rei'iew (January, 1887). Reference 
 may also be made to S. C. Buxton’s LLandbook to 
 Political Qnestio 7 is of the Day (6th ed., London, 1888). 
 The London Government Bill, introduced in 1884, 
 was dropped, owing to pressure of other business. 
 A paper on “ The Government of London,” read by 
 Prof. A. M. Wheeler at the meeting of the American 
 Historical Association in Boston, May 24, 1887, will 
 probably be printed among the papers of the Associa- 
 tion. For a good review of the attempts since i860 
 to regulate the London gas supply, see an article in 
 the British Quarterly for January, 1879. 
 
 A Royal Commission on the City Livery Compa- 
 nies reported May 28, 1884. See the discussion by 
 Sir R. A. Cross, one of the dissenting members of 
 the Commission, in the N'i 7 ietee 7 ith Ce 7 itu 7 'y for 1884, 
 vol. xvi. p. 47, and by Sir Arthur Hobhouse in the 
 Co 7 ite 77 ip 07 ’ary Review for 1885, xlvii. p. i. The 
 most important work on the London guilds is 
 William Herbert’s Llistory of the Twelve Great 
 Co 77 ipa 7 iies of Lo 7 ido 7 i (London, 1837). The latest 
 contribution to the subject is Price’s Desc 7 'iptio 7 i of 
 the Guildhall (London, 1887). 
 
 Berlin. 
 
 An excellent short account of the government of 
 Berlin is given by Dr. Rudolph Gneist, a member of 
 the municijial council since 1848, in the Co 7 itet 7 ipo- 
 ra/y Review, vol. xlvi. p. 769, December, 1884. See 
 also the report on the “ Administration of the City 
 of Berlin” in F'oreig 7 i Relatio 7 is for 1881, j). 487, 
 made by Assistant-.Secretary of Legation Coleman at 
 the recpiestof Hon. Andrew D. White, then Minister 
 to Germany. Also the articles by Prof. R. T. Ely in 
 the Natio 7 i for March 23 and 30, 1882, vol. xxxiv. 
 pp. 145 and 267. The same writer printed an article 
 on street cleaning in Berlin in the Eve 7 ii 77 g Post for 
 April 6, i88r. Reference may also be made to a 
 lecture by E. Eberty entitled Die Aiifgabe 7 i der Be 7 '- 
 lincr Co 77 i 77 i 7 i 7 ialve 7 -iaaltii 7 tg nnd die ErJwhiaig der 
 stddtische 7 i Steiier 7 i (Berlin, 1878). The Magistracy 
 publish reports at irregular intervals. The first, 
 Bericht iiber die Verwaltit 77 g der Stadt Berli 77 , /;/ de 7 i 
 Jahre/i 1829 bis incl. 1840 (Berlin, 1842), and the 
 second, /« de 7 i yahre 7 i 1841 bis i 7 icL 1850 (Berlin, 
 1853), are in the University library. A third, ]nib- 
 lished in 1863, covers the period from 1851 to i86o, 
 and a fourth, printed in 1882, covers the period from 
 i86r to 1876. The Director of the Statistical Bureau 
 of the city publishes annually Das Sti/tistische Jahr- 
 buch der Stadt Berli 7 i.

 P'or a comparison of the provisions of the state 
 constitutions relating to municipal corporations see 
 F. J. Stimson’s A 77 ierica 7 i Statute Law (Boston, 1886), 
 vol. i., articles 34, 37 and 50. Note the classification 
 of municipalities in Ohio. On the relation of munici- 
 palities to the states consult the chapter on ” The 
 flrades of Municipal Government ” in Judge T. M. 
 Cooley’s Co 7 istittitio 7 tal Li 77 iitatio 7 is (5th ed., Boston, 
 1883). Judge J. F. Dillon’s Treatise oti the Laiu of 
 J/u 7 iicipal Co 7 p 07 'atio 7 is (3d ed., Boston, 1881) is the 
 standard authority on this subject. Note the intro- 
 ductory historical sketch. Reference may also be 
 made to the same writer’s L.aw of I\lH 7 iicipal Bo 7 ids 
 (Chicago, 1877), and to A Treatise on Mii 7 iicipal Police 
 Ordi 7 ia 7 ices (Chicago, 1887) by N. T. Horr and 
 A. A. Bemis, of the Cleveland bar. The authors of 
 the last work say in their preface that" The necessity 
 for it arises from the fact that, except in those cities 
 and towns where the municipal council has the as- 
 sistance of regularly employed legal advisers, the 
 limits of lawful legislation are apt to be exceeded.”

 Statistics. 
 
 The following Reports of the Tenth Census treat of 
 this subject: vol. i. Population; vol. vii. Valuation, 
 Ta.xation, and Indebtedness ; vol. xviii. Social Sta- 
 tistics of Cities: New England and Middle States 
 (reviewed in the A'otion, vol. xliv. p. 256) ; vol. xix. 
 Social Statistics of Cities: Southern and Western 
 .States (not yet printed). 
 
 Scribner’s Statistical Atlas of the United States 
 (N. Y., 1883), exhibits the figures of the census 
 graphically ( p. xlv, statistics of population ). Plate 2 1 
 illustrates the growth of American cities since 1790. i 
 There were then only eight cities of eight thousand I 
 inhabitants, and the population of New York was | 
 33,131. Plate 30 gives ratios of different national!- j 
 ties to total population in the fifty largest cities. I 
 Plate 76 gives net per capita debt in the hundred 
 largest cities. 
 
 On statistics of population see an article by j 
 B. G. Magie, Jr., in Scribner's Monthly, vol. xv. 
 p. 418 (January, 1878), and another by Prof. Rich- 
 mond M. Smith in the Independent, vol. xxxviii. 
 p. 553 (May 6, 1886). Cf. work by E. Levasseur, I 
 entitled Les Populations Urbai}ies en France, coniparees 
 a celles de I Etranger (Paris, 1887). lecture de- 
 livered by Gen. F. A. Walker in the Lowell Insti- 
 tute Course for 1886 on “City Population in the 
 United States ” has not yet been printed. 
 
 The Annnal Statistician for 1887, published by 
 L. P. McCarty, San Francisco, gives the following 
 statistics for seventeen leading cities: number of 
 votes registered and polled ; number of voting pre- 
 cincts; strength of police; losses by fire and number 
 of fire engines and firemen ; value and caj)acity of 
 gas and waterworks ; number and character of street- 
 lights ; vital statistics; number of murders, suicides, 
 and executions ; length of street railroads and cost 
 of motive power; telegraph and telephone mileage; | 
 number of saloons and cost of licenses ; attendance 
 and cost of schools ; annual tax-rate, expenditure 
 and the public debt. Similar statistics are being pre- 
 pared by the .American Economic Association. 
 
 Wm. W. Goodwin’s Directory of the Gas Light 
 Companies (N. V., A. M. Callendar & Co.) and the 
 same writer’s paper on “ Statistics regarding the Gas 
 Comj)anies of America,’’ read at the Fourteenth 
 Annual Meeting of the American Gas Eight Associ- 
 ation, held in Philadelphia in October, 1886. printed 
 in the American Gas Ldght fonrnal for Dec. 16, 1886, 
 and reprinted separately, gives the number of gas 
 companies, number of public lamps, price of gas, 
 method of manufacture, &c. Five cities in the 
 United .States f)wn their gas works: Philadelphia; 
 Wheeling, West Virginia; and Alexandria, Dan- 
 ville, and Richmond, Virginia. Dresser’s “Report 
 on the Gas Industry,” compiled for the tenth census, 
 will not be published. 
 
 J. J. R. Croes in his Statistical Tables of American 
 Water Works (Engineering News Publishing Co, 
 
 5 
 
 N. Y., 3d issue, 1887) gives for each city the owner- 
 ship and date when water works were built ; the 
 source and mode of supply ; cost, debt, and rate of 
 interest ; annual expense and revenue from con- 
 sumers and the public; the number of miles of pipe 
 and kind of pipe for main and services; the number 
 of taps, meters, and hydrants ; the ordinary and fire 
 pressure and the daily consumption. The first 
 works in the United States for public supply were 
 built at Bethlehem, Pa, in 1754. New York was 
 first supplied in 1799, and Philadelphia in 1801. 
 Water in both cities was pumped by steam-engines 
 and distributed through bored wooden logs. 
 Finance. 
 
 Vol. vii. of the Reports of theTenth Census, compiled 
 by Robert P. Porter, gives statistics of local taxation 
 and indebtedness, and a summary of the provisions 
 of the several state constitutions limiting the rate of 
 taxation, the amount of municipal debts, and the 
 purposes for which they may be contracted. See 
 p. 674 for an analysis of the purposes for which the 
 debt outstanding in 1880 was contracted. Mr. Por- 
 ter published an article on municipal debts in the 
 N. Y. Banker's Magazine for Sept., 1876, and 
 another in Lalor’s Cyclopcedia of Political Science, 
 vol. i. p. 730. Cf. also his article in the Princeton 
 Reviezo, x. s., vol. iv. p. 172. For a further study 
 of this subject, read Prof. 1 1 . C. Adams’s Public Debts 
 (N. Y., 1887), Part III , chap. iii. See also G. W. 
 Green’s article on “Municipal Bonds” (Lalor’s 
 Cyclopedia, vol. ii. p. 920); C. Hale’s “Debts of

 Wm. M. Ivins cited below. A Statement of Pacts 
 Concerning the Financial Affairs of the City of Eliza- 
 beth, A\ J., which has the largest per capita debt in 
 the United States, was jniblishcd by some of the cit- 
 izens of that ])lace in Jan., 1886. 
 
 On the subject of local taxation the Reports of the 
 Commissioners Appointed to Revise the Laws for the 
 Assessme)it and Collection of I'axes in N'ew York (1871 
 and 1872) contain much valuable material. 'I'he

 General Discussions. 
 
 d'he Report of the Com?nission to devise a Plan for 
 the Government of Cities in the State of N'eiv YorJ^ 
 (.\ssembly Doc. no. 67, 1877) is very important. 
 The Commission was appointed by Governor Til- 
 den, with \Vm. M. Evarts as chairman. The consti- 
 tutional amendment proposed by the Commission 
 was discussed by E. L. Godkin in the A\ition, 
 vol. xxvi. p. loS. See also the Report of the Commis- 
 sion to devise a Plan for the Gcn'ernment of Cities of

 has published a pamphlet on The Municipal Debt 
 and Sinking-Fund of the City of Neiv York, contain- 
 ing an argument on hearing before the Governor, 
 June 2, 1885, and an historical review of the funded 
 debt and of the operations of the sinking-fund since 
 their foundation. In an article on “ Municipal Gov- 
 ernment,” Political Science Quarterly (June, 1887), he 
 shows that the changes in municipal organization 
 have been incident to the extension of the general 
 functions of government, and gives an analysis of 
 the system of government in New York City. His 
 Machine Politics and Money in Elections in Nezv York 
 City (Harper’s “Handy Series,” N. Y., 1887) de- 
 scribes the working of the election laws, and advo- 
 cates the adoption of the essential features of the 
 English system. For the English law in full, see Lely 
 and Foulkes’s Parliamentary Election Acts (London, 
 1885).

 Special Topics. 
 
 Prof. E. J. James’s monograph. The Relation of the 
 Modern Municipality to the Gas Supply (Publications 
 of the American Economic Association, vol. i, nos. 2 
 and 3, 1886), advocates the public ownership of gas- 
 works. Cf. the references under the head of statistics, 
 and the article on “ London Gas ” in the Quarterly 
 Reviejv for Jan., 1879. the subject of education 
 
 see John 1 ). Philbrick’s City School Systems [Ca\ z\\\-^x 
 of Information no. i, 1885, issued by the National 
 Bureau of lulucation). On sanitary cpiestions con- 
 sult I'hwin F. Smith’s Injluence of Sewerage and 
 PVater-Supply on the Death-Rate in Cities (a jiaper 
 read at a Sanitary Convention in Ypsilanti, Mich., 
 July I, 1885, and reprinted from a Supplement to the 
 Annual Report of the Michigan State Board of Health 
 for the year 1885) and the numerous references given 
 in the notes. Cf. also Dr. L. L. Seaman’s Social 
 Wade of [.urge Cities, a paper read before the Amer-

 Charities ” [Johns Hopkins Studies, vol. v. no. 8). 
 
 Particular Cities. 
 
 Many of the papers already cited, especially the 
 Johns Hopkins Studies and the articles in the Eortim 
 
 relate to particular cities, but have been referred to 
 above because of their more or less general ap])lica- 
 tion. A special study may be made of New York, 
 and a few notes on other cities added. 
 
 New York City. For a brief account of the 
 system of government see the article on “ New 
 York ” by E. L. Godkin in the Encyclopccdia Britan- 
 nica (9th ed., vol. xvii.). Dr. J. F. Jameson’s “ Origin 
 and Development of the Municipal Government of 
 N ew York City ” [Magazine of American History, May 
 and September, 1882), gives a sketch of municipal 
 government down to 1821. A portion of each volume 
 of the Alanual of the Corporation (28 v., 1841-7 1 ), after 
 that for 1846, is devoted to a history of the city. The 
 fact that James Parton in Oct., 1866 [North Ameri- 
 can Rrview, vol ciii. p. 413), attributed the growing 
 evils in the government of the city to the abolition 
 of household suffrage is interesting in connection 
 with the recommendation of the Commission of 1877. 
 See also in the N'orth American Revieiv, “ The Judi- 
 ciary of New York” (July, 1867, vol. cv. p. 148), and

 (Oct., 1871, vol. cxiii. p. 321). An account of the 
 Tweed ring may also be found in the N'orth Ameri- 
 can Revirw, in a series of articles by C. F. ingate, 
 entitled “ An Episode in Municipal Government,” 
 beginning in the number for Oct., 1874, and ending in 
 the number for Oct., 1S76. On the same subject cf. 
 A. II. Green’s Three Years' Struggle with Municipal 
 Afisrule in New York City, a Rejoort made by the 
 Comptroller to the Board of Aldermen, Feb. 18, 1875,

 Magazine and Reznew, N. S. vol. ii. P- 525 (London, 
 1873). Geo. II. Andrews’s Tzoelve Letters on 
 
 the Euture of Nezv York (N. Y., 1877). The entire 
 second volume of the Statutes of APzo York for 1882 
 is devoted to the present charter of the City of New 
 York, or the “ Consolidated Act,” as it is called. 
 The Investigation of the Department of Public Works 
 in 1884 was i)rintcd in Senate Doc. no. 57, 1884 ; and 
 the investigation by the committee, of which 'I'lico- 
 dore Roosevelt was chairman, was reported in As- 
 sembly Docs. nos. 125, 153, and 172, 1884. 'I'he 
 Report of the Investigation of the A^ezv York Consoli- 
 dated Gas Company iowws, Senate Doc. no. 47, 1886.
