REPORT on IRON AND STEEL.

The annual report of the Iron and Steel
Association. always most valuable and instruc-
tive. is unusually 50 in the instance of the re-
port for 1890. This report discloses one TACT
of extraordinory INTERESTINGLY, that in
1890 the United States not only surpassed
Great Britain in the production Of iron dur
Ing that length of time. but it made record
which Great Britain has never equalled IN the
whole course Of its history. The production
of iron in the United States exceeded that In
Great Britain in 1890 by 1000, 900 tons, and by
900 tons the greatest production OF the
latter country in any one year.
In spite of the enormous increase IN the
consumption of iron in the United States in
1890 there was a steady decline, not only in
the price of pig iron. but also of manufactured
iron and steel It is estimated that S,95s,679
gross tons of pig iron were consumed in 1890.
an amount which is double the amount which
was consumed in 1885,
The report of the Iron and Steel Associs-
ton furnishes the following figures, which
throw a very clear light upon the growth of
the United States at large, as we'll as Of its
iron industries in the course Of the last fifteen
years

ITALIAN 1MM1GRATfON.

The accurate information which the lnspec-
tors of immigration at our different ports are
able to obtain as to the exact character Of the
population which is flowing to our shores
from abroad discloses two very striking facts
in connection with the Italian immigrants.
First, there is among these immigrants
very notable disproportion between the
number of males and females, respectively.
II is estimated that at least nine-tenths are
men, a disproportion not observed among the
immigrants belonging TO the other nationall-
ties, there being in their case marked
numerical equality between the sexes.
Secondly, the Italian immigrants, with COM
paratiyely few exceptions when the great
mass is considered. have no intention OF
making permanent settlement in the United
States. As a rule they have families in Italy,
and they have removed TO this country for the
temporary purpose of accommodating sufficient
means to enable them to support these
families without having to work as formerly.
America has been held up to them as a land
where money can be made very quickly, and
only a few years in consequence are necessary
TO insure small fortune As the average
Italian immigrants conception of what con-
stitutes a small fortune is very modest and
restricted. larger proportion of them are
successful in obtaining the object OF their
ambition than would be supposed.
In his general character the Italian immi-
grant very strongly resembles the Chinese I'M
migrant. He abandons his native country
without the slightest intention or desire to
identify himself with the country TO which be
temporarily removes. He does not entertain
for moment the thought of citizenship, but
instead is seeking the means that will insure
a life of ease when he returns 10 the country
from which he originally came.
Like the Chinaman, he is prepared to live
upon the most degraded plane of economy
for the purpose of laying aside every tarthing
of his earnings that can be saved. The sum
which he accumulates in this way he with
draws from the country.
While the Italian immigrant has recently
made himself prominent as laborer on our
great public works, and has thus taken an
active part in the erection of public inn
provements, nevertheless the bulk Of the
race who have removed to this country have
remained in the towns and engaged in light
employments. The return of these TO Italy
with their accumulated savings is a drain on
the resources of the communities they
abandon for which there is no compensation
in any permanent results of the work which
they may have performed while in America.
The financial collapse in South America
has stimulated the immigration of Italians to
the United States, and the tide now flowing
into this country is far greater than it has
been at any time in the course of the past
The problems which the presence of Italian
immigrants in the United States creates are
only growing more and more complicated,
and IN consequence more and more difficult
Of solution.

init Even what remained of the kingdom
vas allowed to exist only under the
guarantee of Russia. The second division
was in 1893. when a Diet convened by the
victors was compelled to sanction the new
spoliation at the point of the bayonet. The
third and fual division occurred in 1875.
when. after the failure Of the gallant struggle
of the Polish people to assert their indie
pendence. Poniatowsky resigned his crown at
Grodno. No event in history called out the
execraton and reproaches of mankind in such
bitter terms la the United States especially

premier DI RUDrSI has given his ultimatum
30 the Marquis IMPERIAL to the effect that
the United States. having failed to make re-
paration for the deaths of the slaughtered
Mafans in New Orleans, are untrue 10 their
treaty obligations, and that, therefore, Italy
does not wish to continue diplomatic re-
lations with us. He says that his country
will make no further demand on the Federal
Government and it is time to break of the
bodies controversy. He, therefore, in
structs the Marquis TO confne himself here
after strictly TO the current business Of his
Office.
If Italy chooses TO stop speaking to the
United States because they refuse 10 amend
their Constitution 10 suit her views, we will
have TO try and get along without her In the

enough to stop the emigration of undesirable

sistent he should do 50, most sssuredly.

The Lord is smiling on the Kentucky
farmers this year with warmth and trendll-
ness that ought to drive even the inveterate
grumbler 10 the rear. There is every ludlca-
ton that the wheat crop is going to be some
thing immense. The fruit promises to break
down all the trees with its rich load. Tobacco
rasers have good start in nearly the entire
tobacco region. Cattle are away up yonder
in price. and hogs are higher than usual, though
has been fed into them. And il is said that
there never was such crop of lambs in the
State as we have this spdng. 1t is estimated
that there were at least sixty thousand on
seventy thousand Of them and in the sheep
raising counties the farmers are joyfully an
tlcipating relief from all financial pressure by
the sale Of lambs and wool within the next
thirty days. A good crop year IS worth a

The increase in the production of pig iron
during 1890. as compared with 1889. amounted
to t,599,0Gf gross tons, an increase Of Il per
cent At the points of greatest increase. there
was a very remarkable cheapening of the cost
OF production The increase i'll Southern pro-
duction, although it was not as great rela-
lively as it had been in 1889, was nevertheless
very large. In 1889 nine Southern States
produced 1858, 459 net tons, as against $50
7O2 in 1889, / 1872, 55S in 1888. and 712 1856 net
tons in 1885.
The introduction of so much of this cheap
er iron into the market is the generally ac-
cepted explanation of the depression which
is prevailing in 50 many branches of the iron
iade Another cause" according TO the
annual report, lis the increasing use Of coke
and bituminous fuel in production, as CON-
pared with anthracite or charcoal iron. The
increase in coke iron produced was over
!. 200 900 net tons, and in all iron only 1900
900 net tons. The number Of furnaces III
blast at the close of the year was actually
smaller than in any other year since 1885
only 81. against 344 at the close Of the year
1889, and 33l at the close of tho year
1886. This fact alone shows how great
has been the change, from the Use of many
comparatively small works to the great and
splendidly equipped establishments which
turn out the largest possible yield with the
utmost attainable economy. 1t appears also
that the stocks Of unsold pig iron increased
during the year from 277,40l net tons at the
close of 1889 to 6sl 1922 net tons at the close Of
1890, but allowance for this increase is made
in the statement already given OF the con-
sumption"
One of the most striking features Of the
past year has been the enormous demand for
steel in structural and other forms. The year
was a notable one for the amount of building
which went on during its course, a fact
further shown by the demand for steel nails.

The Louisiana Lottery.

The Louisiana Lottery Company has won
decisive legal victory which will greatly aid in
the perpetuation of that concern unless the
people of Louisiana show their appreciation
Of the disgrace which 1t brings upon the state
by voting against its franchise at the next
election. The Louisiana Company IS ready TO
spend millions of dollars to retain the adj
yantages it has long enjoyed, and large num-
bers of voters are already favorable 70 It.
With strong influences IN favor OF the per-
petuation of this harmful monopoly it will re-
duire all the earnestness Of It's opponents 10

ment as will result in the defeat OF the consti-
tutional amendment which was passed by the
