their efforts to get storage passenger, and to swell the
cml-raton b. advertising In any way
except by the simple notices that their
ships are about 10 SAIL rates. etc. (ip
plauscJ How, this law can be easily enforced here
In many ways: hy sending back immigrants without
mercy by luing the agents II the lines here and by
alug proceeding, against the shiis. Tie other PRO
vision Of tho submitted law Is that the steamships shall
