There are Many Americans Abroad.

Over $4,000 Americans have gone
abroad this year. In March and April
the departure for the exposition" be-
gan in earnest, and it is believed at the
various lines that at least 10000 pas
sengers sailed each month. This
would make 10000 for the two months.
Adding the estimated total for Feb
ruary at 5000, the total would be
72,947. Adding to that, according to
the opinion Of the good judges at the
offices who know what frst-class
"second-class passenger" is, 10000
passengers Of this class on pleasure
bent who sailed from the LIST of Feb
ruary, make total of s2,947.
"Now," said gentleman connected
with one of the big steamship lines,
taking it for granted that the number
who sailed since February first as cabin
passengers was 1891, and that nine
tenths of these had to pay from 800 to
$50, and say the lowest average would
be $50, taking the different rates of
different companies, picture to
yourself the money the
Americans put in the compa-
MES here before they went away. Then
nine-tenths of those who went away
bought return tickets. Add the sum
paid for return tickets, even going as
low as $3.50 apiece for the round trip
for the sake of looking at the matter
low down on the scale, and what is the
total?"
The reader will at glance see the
result
