There is some variation in factual information--for example, the amount
held in the Mint. These occurrences have all been preserved as printed.
There is some variable spelling; this has been repaired where there
was an obvious prevalence of one form over the other, but is otherwise
left as printed. There is a reference on page 112 to "gambling hells",
which seems to be a genuine term, although it could be a typo for
"gambling halls". Since there is no way to be certain, it has been
preserved as printed. Archaic spelling has been preserved as printed.
Typographic errors in punctuation and spelling (omitted or transposed
letters, etc.) have been repaired. Hyphenation has been made
consistent where there was a prevalence of one form over the other.
The following errors have also been repaired:
Page 18--John amended to James--"Former Mayor James D.
Phelan"
Page 47--aids amended to aides--"It was not without a
struggle that Mayor Schmitz and his aides let this, ..."
Page 93--omitted word 'he' added, for sense--"Kanaka
Pete chased the man he had marked ..."
Page 160--omitted 0 added to tabular entry for
Connecticut.
Page 317--damage to the bottom of the page has left one
word partially obscured. From the visible letters and
available space, the word is most likely 'gradually',
which has been used in this e-text.
Page 372--Callas amended to Callao--"... producing a new
bay at Callao; and in several mountains ..."
Page 373--XXXII amended to XXXI--"CHAPTER XXXI."
Page 382--XXXI amended to XXXII--"CHAPTER XXXII."
Page 401--omitted word 'if' added following 'as'--"It
was as if St. Pierre had been just dipped ..."
The frontispiece illustrations have been moved to follow the title
page. Other illustrations have been moved where necessary so that they
are not in the middle of a paragraph.
