Italian immigrants Returning Home
After a Hard Experience.
MARsErLLEs. May 19.-Ths steamer
Beam, from Brazilian and Argentine ports,
arrived here to-day, bringing back about
700 utterly destitute Italian emigrants who
had sought a fortune in those countries.
During the passage from South America
there we're five deaths from yellow fever
among the disheartened emigrants. They tell
startling stories Of the hardships they have
suffered, and 1t is expected that their return
is to stop the tide of immigration flowing
from Italy toward South America, and on
the other hand increase the number of Ital-
ian emigrants who will seek employment in
the United States-in fact, the recent In
crease in the number of Italian emigrants
who have started, or are on the point of
starting, for the United States, is attributed
in some quarters to unfavorable reports
received from the Italians whg
have been induced to try their luck in
South America 1t is thus concluded thaa
when the Bearn's passengers reach Italy and
personally tell Of the privation and sickness
endured by them in Brazil and the Argen-
tine Republic there will be a great falling
Off in the number Of Italians who have been
looking towards those countries as likely TO
furnish them in the future with new homes
and fortunes.
