Shaun Rhue will be seen for the first time

the use OF rolling stock belonging 10 other
people while their own cars are lying idle on
side tracks. A short time ago the Alton
found a way 70 utilize it's idle cars. IL en-
tered into deal with the American Live
Stock Commission company, n wealthy Texas
Atoms stock cars. numbering over FIVE hun
dred. BY this move the live stock company
escapes paying big price for the use OF cars
owned by private concerns, and the Alton de-
rives revenue from property that was pre-
viously yielding nothing. Tho deal, of
course, aroused the indignation OF the COM
mission companies controlling the patent
cars, and caused some feeling among rail-
roads that are In competition with the Alton.
II is understood that the proposition OF the
st. Paul TO mako less rate on cattle, when
shipped In its own cars, Ia ono OF the consc-
quences OF the above mentioned deal, and Is
intended to Offset, IN measure, the advant-

pTvERsfoN or EMfGRATroN.

III hHDfON OF
Treasury statistics show that emigra-
tion to The United States is decreasing.
One explanation OF this is doubtless the
fact that the inducements TO foreign
la5cr- to come TO this country have not
been very strong fora year past, and
particularly during the present yyear.
The large amount Of idle labor on the
American market, and the consequent
decline OF wages in most industries, are
facts which do not escape the
knowledge OF the more Intelligent
class of foreigners who may
be contemplating emigration. How
well informed Europeans man
age to keep regarding the industrial
conditions in this country can easily be
learned by reference to the circum-
stances under which the United States
have received tho greatest immigra-
tion. 1t was in the years OF our great
est industrial activity, when wages were
high, that the largest additions were
made to the population from the inflow
of European labor, skilled and un-
skilled.
But there Is another fact In the situ-
alton which is perhaps more important
as explaining the decrease OF emigrn-
tion to this country, and that is the di-
version TO South American countries by
reason OF the very favorable induce
ments offered by several OF those coun-
tries. For year or two past the Ar-
gentine Republic has followed most
liberal policy for attracting immigra-
tion, and it has drawn from nearly all
the European countries. Other countries
OF South America, while not pursuing a
quite similar course, are acquain ting
| Europeans with their advantages and
benefitting accordingly in the matter Of
gaining population. There is no lessen
ing Of the extent of European emil
grafton, but the seekers after
new homes are more generally turning
their attention to the southern conti-
| nent. How long this will last will OF
course depend upon the period of con-
| tinuance of the favorable inducements
that now attract immigrants to that
| continent, but there must be room there
for great many more Of them. Mean
while there Is probably no danger that
the United States Will not get suffi-
| cient share of European labor, and 1t
may be remarked that there are some
who would be we'll pleased II the diver
sion OF emigration were greater than
| it is. Those, for example, who share
] the apprehensions of Bishop Coxe re-
| garding the influence upon our
institutions of the infusion of Eu uropean
ideas into our political and social life
would very heartily welcome the com
plete stoppage of immigration into this
country. From the practical point OF
| view the diversion Of European emigra-
tion to South America is matter by no
| means unfavOrable to the United States,
sincei il we are to enlarge our CONNER
cial relations with the southern conti-
nent, its development in population and
| productive power is to be desired.

THE Interstate Commerce Railway

THE Interstate Commerce Railway
association has filed a complaint against
the Chicago & Alton with the inter-
state commerce commission, and an
other complaint has been filed against
the same road by the Chicago, Rock
Island g. Pacific. This action, so far at
least as the railway association is con-
cerned, was not unexpected. The ma
ture of these complaints is not yet made
public, but it is to be presumed they in
volve charges of violations of the inter
state commerce law since the Alton
withdrew from the association. The
management of the Alton has appeared
to invite investigation, and it will now
have an opportunity to show whether it
has been conforming to the law.
