Two thousand two hundred immigrants
who reached New York Saturday were
landed on Ellis island Sunday. There
were 4S5 from the French liner La
Touraine, 554 from the Gellert from
Hamburg, 635 from: the Augusta Vic
toria and 500 from the Rus
sian. The Ellis island physician
said the immigrants were a remark
ably clean and healthy lot. The
opinion was expressed by one Of The
old standing doctors that cholera
would reach New York soon Hessaid
| the immigrants coming to this country
now were OF Il character to bring the
scourge, as they represented the very
poorest of the European peasantly The
doctor was sure the cholera would not
get into the city. ~

otto and must be imported in order to

save through. the persons and personal
effects of immigrants. 1t is the con-
