The TARIFF" Ion," the Washington cor
respondent of the Baltimore Sun, says: :" The
friends of revision of the Tariff, with view to
the establishment of moderate and judcious sys-
tenn of revenue, have great confidence in the sue
cess of their policy during the present Congress, if
not at the present session. There is no doubt that
the Tariff might, with benefit to some interests,
and perhaps with due regard to the general in
terests, modify the present system. The cotton
and iron and wooden interests are it is said, much
depressed, and, at the same time, freights are
ruinously low. There is to be, according to some
financial predictions, a panic about next January
and, in that case, there will be considerable tnk
ering of the revenue-especally should the Secre-
tary of the Treasury insist upon supplying his an
ticipated deficiency, about which so much was said
| while ago.

cause, the amount-of foreign immigration has ex-
perienced within the present month, sudden and
unexpected decrease. The total number of passen-
gers arrived at New York for the present month of
May is set down at 40 259, which is an increase of
near 5000 that Of the same month for 1919.
The number of immigrants arrived from the COM
mencement Of the present month up to the 18th
inst, is only 1904 not more than one-third the
amount stated for the half month beginning on the
