Acceptances 10 the Review Coming in Slowly
From Abroad.

WAsuiSGroS, Dec. 2.--Acccptapces to
the invitations sen, ont by the state depart
men, to foreign countries to take part in the
naval review are coming in very slowly.
Only two of the tirst-ciass naval powers,
Great Britain and France, and three Of the
smaller ones. Portugal, the Netherlands and
iIayti. have signited their intention Of
sending vessels.
Mexico. China, Denmark and some OF
the South American republics have declined
on the ground that they could not make u
good showing with their small ships and
obsolete armament and equipment. Russia,
Germany, Italy, Spain and the other recog-
nized naval nations will no doubt, IN time,
accept the invitation and send ships com
mensuratc with their standing ~ naval
powers.

THEY'LL GET IN ANYHOW.
The Ocean Steamship Men Say Congress Can
not Stop immigration.

NEW YoRk. Dec, 2.--~The suggestion OF
the Senate committee ON immigration that
immigrant traffic be suspended for one yeaI
from March |, 1898, has raised hornet :
rest in steamship circles. Representatives
of the companies say their business here
will be killed, while the traffic will not
abate so long as there are Canadian ports to
enter by. The plan proposed by many OF
the companies will be to carry the immi-
grants to Montreal, giving the Canadian
railroads the traffic that now goes TO the
roads of this country.
r. j. Cortis, representing the Hamburg
American Packet Company said:
Cutting OF immigration for one year
would be most serious for the steamship
companies. Naturally the corporations
will look for some way of equalhzing and
will turn To Canada, where the immigrants
can be landed without difficulty. Instead Of
the proposed bill cutting OF immigration, it
will simply change the port of entry. A
few steamships may be run to this port to
carry freight, but it will be at u loss if they
cannot carry immigrants.
A. NJ. Underhll. agent of the Guion line
shutting off immigrants, instead of help
in 9 the country, will be- serious expendi-
of the country. AS well us the locality.
5. s. Cortis, White Star hnc-Alreaay
the lines feel the effect of the investigation
Many residents of the country, but not cit
izeDs, want to home to spend the holidays
with friends. but are afraid to do so, fear
ing they cannot return. Neither freight
nor passenger traffic makes big profits at
the present time, and TO cut of immigrants
would result in operating steamships at a
loss. Excitement in Europe is intense in
regard to the proposed law and many of the
agents will not consent to send their
passengers, lest they he sent back.
We have booked many passengers prior
TO September | who are still on the other
side We made contracts to carry them To
America but cannot do 40. A young man
who came to this country several wears ago
called at this office and purchased ticket
To bring his sweetheart here. He forwarded
the ticket to her. When she presented il
the agent refused to let her come over.
The Young man called on Col Weber and
that official saw no reason why the grl
could not land. She is not here yet and
cannot come because they are afraid that
she will be sent back.
Agents of the other steamship companies
all expressed similar views.
