IMMIGRATION.
Valuable Information Being COL
leoted in Europe.
Mormons Are Told That if They
Come TO America They Cannot
Practice Polygamy.
MUST OBEY OUR LAWS.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-Dispatches
from the United States Immigration
commission now in Europe to the treas
ury department state that the chair
man, Col. Weber, and DR. Kempster
have gone to Russia b., V ay of Ger
many, where they are now prosecuting
their inquiries. Commissioners Cross,
Powderly and Shulties will carry on
their inquiries in Great Britain and the
southern portion of the continent. The
dispatches indicate that a large amount
of valuable information is being col
lected, no obstacles being interposed
officially or otherwise to the investiga-
tions.
In an interview between the COM
missioners and the Mormon elder in
charge of Mormon emigrants at
Liverpool that official, who is acting in
the place of Brigham Young, Jr,
stated that while he and all Mormons
believed polygamy to be right, yet as
the United States supreme court had
decided the anti-polygamy law to be
constitutional, the Mormon church had
adopted rule against it's practice in the
United States, and that all Mormon
converts abroad are SO informed be-
fore their embarkation for America.
He further stated that whenever the
question was asked converts were as
sured of the rightfulness of polygamy,
but of the legal impossibility of its
being practiced at present in the
United States or Great Britain; also
that they must not go to America ii
they do not intend to obey the law and
abstain from polygamous marriages.

A letter was received yes terday from
Newmark & Edwards by Secretary
Willard, Of the chamber of commerce,
in answer to request for data on the
grain production of Los Angeles and
Orange counties.
This document, which contains many
valuable statistics. reads as follows:
''In answer to your request we give
herewith some data on the grain pro-
duction OF this and Orange county.
These figures are taken from reports
made to us by threshing machine men.
Some few failed to report, but we have
obtained from other sources very nearly
the correct figures. The result is as toll

Total number of bags used ......l ,47O, ,857.
About one-third of the wheat crop was
grown by the Los Angeles Farming and
Milling Co. on their rancho in the San
Fernando valley.
Wheat averaged 1885 lbs. per sack,
making a total of about 4S6, 900 centals,
Cor cwt. } average value, ST. 40 per CEN

data on, being shelled and marketed

as may suit the farmers convenience.
We think the two counties produced
this year 100000 centals; average value,

This makes a grand total Of cereals,
raised in two counties, Of 80, 122, 300.
We are quite certain these are con-
servative figures. There was, perhaps,
a considerable quantity OF both wheat
and barley in the Antelope valley not
: included in our report from there.
We also give you the amount OF grain

out. Most warehouse men are very
prompt to assist us in gathering these
figures; others for some reason are
backward, possibly fearing the results
may be used by spectators. We regard
the matter of gathering and publishing
statistics as the only intelligent way tc
l ascertain the value of any product

The committee from the chamber Of
commerce to formulate a plan for the
construction of boulevard from Los
Angeles to the Soldiers home met yes
terday afternoon at $50 o'clock. There
were present G. M. Wells, T.. Germain,
A. II. Denker, E. f. G. Klokke, Charles
Forester. r. McGarvin, J. B. Lanker-
shin, City Engineer Dockweiler, County
Surveyor Stafford and d. F. Donegan.
1t was decided that committee to
consist of Messrs. Lankershim, Denker
and Forester be appointed to ascertain
what could be done toward securing q
right of way for boulevard from this
city to the Soldiers home, and that the
committee be instructed to look over the
various routes which had been proposed
for this boulevard and report which was
the most feasible, and also that the COM
mittee be instructed to secure the right
of way for boulevard 100 feet wide if
possible, but in no case was the right to
be asked for less width than so feet.
Mr.. Donegan suggested that width
of 100 feet should be secured, but
that not more than thirty feet of this
be used for the road bed, the remainder
being worked into riding and bicycle
roads and park. He stated that boule-
ward of that size could be sprinkled
over it's entire length for about $4,000 a
year, which would be considerably less
than it now costs to keep the present
road in decent repair.
Mr.. Dockweiler explained what the
committee must look out for in the mat
ter of grades and gave some interesting
suggestions in the methods of construct
ing roads.
Mr.. Germain moved that the city and
county engineers be requested to act in
conjunction with the committee on the
right of way.
The committee then adjourned.
