Report OF the Commit ~ Which Yis-

WASHINGTON, Feb. (. The members
of the co., mission VIII ch visited Europe
for tne purpose of investigating the sub
ject Of immigration 10 the United States
have submitted reports to the Secretary
Of the Treasury. Statistics from trans
atlantic steamship companies are fur
nished by Commissioners Weber and
kempster. More than 90 per cent. Of
the Immigrants come upon tickets sent
by relatives or friends who preceded
them to this country
AS to whether the steamship companies
stimulate immigration, they report that
in the countries visited by them this is
forbidden by law. AS to the importation
OF contract laborers, they say Congress
slonal legislation largely stopped the
wholesale practice of such operations and
IL now exists to very limited extent.
Relative to the systematic shipment of
criminals, insane, etc., to this country,
/! tney report that in the countries visited
this is not now done, although there is no
doubtit was done formerly.
Inc large number of Jews efnigrating
from Russia determined thorough in
Yestlgatlon of the causes existing in the
country which produces this outflow. and
the commissioners spent most of their
Tune there, and give full account of the
methods produced, which, il continued,

In the countries visited by Commits

causes lncitlng emigration are concerned,
that the same general conditions exist as
above described. In Italy, he says, emil

Commissioner Cross says there is sys-

vlcts OF Great Britain, and he has pos
tive proof that from England. Ireland
aud Scotland during the last eleven years
there has been systematic, widespread
and thoroughly organized movement

MURDERED By DETECTIVES.

Padlowskf Believed to Have Been 81
Victim of the Cars Vengeance.
ST. LOUIS, Feb. IA Republic special
from San Antonio says: The death of
Padlowslzi, the Nihilist, grows daily III
mystery, and it is now almost certain that
the assassin of General Seliyerskof, in
stead of being suicide, was the victim
OF the Cars vengeance. 1t was supposed
that he committed snicide, but it is now
known that the wound in FadIowski's
head was inflicted by bullet of larger
callber than his pistol. Beside, the secret
papers which he was known to have car
ried were missing when the body was
found, as were subsequently official
papers concerning his death, which were
stolen from the District Clerks office.
These facts, together with the knowledge
that detectives were on the trail of
Padlowski, lead to the conclusion that
Padlowski was murdered by detectives
for the reward offered by the Russian
Government for his apprehension, dead
or alive. Attorney Wilson had the re-
mains exhumed. He is brother-in-law
of the Russia Consul at Galveston. 1t is
presumed that the investigation was
made at the instance of the Cars Gov
ernment.

the stage was stopped on the 9TH day of
January. The robber was masked with

leet ten inches in hight, and dressed in
dark clothes. The voice sounded the
same to the driver as the former highway
man. The driver was ordered to throw
out the express-box. The only passen-
ger was young man named Mailles,
who was asked by the road agentifhe had
any money in bis pockets. Answering
IN the negative, nothing more was said,
