During the last year 3sS,541 immi-
grants have passed through Castle Gar
den New York. This, as compared with
1884,. shows a falling fin the immigration
at this point of 69, 1894. OF the immigrants
who arrived during 1883, about 10000
were Germans, little more than 1900
came from the British isles, and of
those over one-half were Irish. About
y, 900 came from Italy; Sweden followed
with about 10000, and Norway and
Hungary each contributed over 1000.
During the last year s5,496 cabin pas
sengers from Europe landed at this port

CONDENSED NEWS,


Chairman Morrison says he will soon re-
port tariff bill which will simply propose
an average reduction of from 20 to IS per
cent. in the W :ols tariff list. 1t will contain
beside, provisions to correct some Of the cru
uiuss OF the existing tariff, aud will propose
some additions to the tree list. The pro-
tecuonist demoeratn will not dare 10 pre-
vent the passage in the house of the bill;
wnec they See what it is. The bill wiii
pass the house, it will so to the senate, the
republicans will amend 1t by putting on
Tree sugar, and send il back to the house.
MT. MORRISON says he does not think the
mouse will concede to free sugar, but he IN
tends that his bill shall not offer an opror'
tunity for interests which are supported by
powerful Influences to receive special
consideration. The bill, indeed, will not
contain over 200 words.
The minority OF the house military COM
mittee, consisting ST Messrs, Steele and
Cutcheon, have decided to submit an adj
verse report to congress on the Fit. John
Porter case. They hare nothing new, but
have adopted HE adverse report of the forty
sixth congress. 1t is generally believed,
however, that the bill will pass at this SEES
sion. The democrats OF the house favor 1t.
Two republican senators, Hoar and Sc well |,
will also vote favorablv, which will prob
ably carry IT, as Don Cameron is not paired

He said there was much difference Of
opinion in regard to such dues and it was
not clear that they should be abolished.
With regard to the work of the committee
on commerce, Mr. M MILAN said that dur
ing the last congress it made eighty reports
on a great variety of subjects. The mer-
chant marine had not been neglected. With
regard to the river aud harbor bill, ne
thought it one of the most useful an bene.
fetal bills that congress has to deal with,
ant. criticisms made on river and harbOr
bills would apply to other bills also. Tie
proposition which was to create an inter-
national Improvement committee to take
away the Jurisdiction of the commerce COM
mittee over river and harbor bills was not
acted upon when it came time to so into
executive session.
HousE.-From the very warm discussion
over the preliminary disposition OF the
presidents message and the report Of the
Mississippi river commission in both houses
of CONGRESS il is evident that congress will
find some other work besides tlnkering
with the tariff. The house devoted almost
the entire day to the question OF reference.
Three committees claimed jurisdiction on
this subject-Reagan's committee on COM
merce. Willis committee on
rivers and harbors, and Kings
committee on Mississippi river inn
proysmeat and levees. The gtst OF the
| fight lay in the superstition that the refer.
ence to the Kine committee meant what
the president recommenoe0-s separate
bill and lineral appropriation for the Mis-
sissippi. A warm contest OF words ior su.
nrs,nacy over this important measure was
| the result. Over three hours OF the session
we're used up in disposing OF the matter,
