the immigrants who are now coming to
this country. He was told by one of
the officials of Castle Garden that if
the American people really under
stood the character of the isnmi-
grants who are now landed at the port of
New York, congress would undoubtedly
take some very radical measures to pre-
vent the introduction of so undesirable
an element into our population. 1T is
very probable that congress will have
better official information upon this sub

pected to be very thorough, and will I'M

timated in the morning papers. He said
to reporter this morning; '"rhe Broth

Nothing definite was done nt the con-
