The "rates of Castle Garden" have
been swinging outward In recent
months In a striking way. In HOT
there were 73,7 IS alien arrlvals;and
155.792 departures, in 10. the half
year, there have been 18,5R arriv
als and S77,6l departures. Never be
fore in a whole year did so many
people of the laboring class leave this
country as left In this half year. More
than this, the Immigration adds to the
total it wh 70 per cent, less than a
year ago. And this also breaks the
record for panic effects.
. The gprlngfleld Republican quotes
the figures of 1893. showing that the
decline In lmmlratlnn then was from
(23,000 In the ".seal year to June,
1802. to 502.00tn 1 sag. sd from
114,467 in 1894 to 179. 948 in 1I9S.
8o the relative decrease Jn those years
was le!s than this ear. After 1271
the falling off was about one-half In
the two following years and about
twd-thlrds I . nthree yeara. Hitherto
the greatest decline was from 7KS.9O0
arrivals, in 132 to 3S4.200 in 1881
a smaller relative shrinkage than the
present year,

theory seems to be borne out by the

mark. - ,
The Commoner's Jaw set like a

stranger waa quickly hustled out of the
room. . .
"He was a stranger. Mr. Brysn.

"Never mind me,' said Mr. Brysn,
