OPPOSED TO RESTRICTION.
Agents OF Steamship Companies Don't Want
immigration Stopped for a Year.

NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-The United States
Senate committee on immigration to-day
discussed the cholera aspect or the imml-
grafton question and at 1:S0 p. NJ. adjourned.
Several prominent physicians were exam.
ined. and all favor further restriction Of
immigration. The next meeting of the com-
mittee will probably be held in Washing
ton.
The proposition to restrict immigration
for one year Is not looked upon favorsbly
by the agents of the steamship companies
in this city. Mr.. A. NJ. UnderhIll. of the
Guion line. said that prohibiting immiRra.
ton was practically impossible as long as
Canadian ports were open. He thought the
country was not filled up and could stand
O few more million new citizens.
Mr.. Samuel COrtis. of the White Star
line, said the resolution would mean q TERI
Gus loss to the steamship com panies whose
chief source of income was from passeng ger
traffic. He thought the idea of one years
prohibition of immigration absurd. If 1t
was desirable one year 1t would be forever
30. The resolution, he said. would seri-
ously affect the Western railroads, who
made much money taking immigrants from
Eastern ports. The steamship companies
did less to encourage immigration than the
Western railroads and land agents who
sent tons of circulars to Europe inviting
immigration TO the West.
Mr.. r. j. Cortis, of the Hamburg-Ameri-
can line. said that the suspension of imml-
grafton would merely turn the tide to
Canada and tha5 American ports would
lose by the diversion of traffic. and the
Canadian lines would do the work former
ly done by the American lines.

Father CorriQan in opposition to the anti
American spirit OF the late German Catho-
lie congress. held in Newark. and its attack
upon the public schools. In the course of
his statement the Father says:

the church, and. second. the Remuneration
of the public schools as 'abominations.'

Wigger were not on speaking terms for

Father Corrigan then recites the history
of his dealings with Bishop Wigger at
length and continues: II received two
weeks notice of the coming trial and when
/ asked a reasonable extension Of time 1
was peremptorily refused. The refusal to
grant me ample time only shows how i'm
