PRESIDENT Reinhnrt VIII Look Into
the Atchison's Claims,

By Associated Press.
Chicago, ILL.,, June 2l.-More trouble
is likely to arise for the Western pas

days. The question Of the grantlnf
Of side trips at Denver by the Union

De able TO prove without doubt, has
been submitted to President Reinhart
and 1t is expected that he will take
some action within the next few days

IL is hardly likely. however, that any
thlng VIII be done until after the re-
turn of Passenger Traffic Manager

New York In consultation with Presi-
dent Reinhart.
The Rock Island and one or two 9TH

In conflict with those of the AtchIson
and the Union Pacific are a little un-
easy lest the trouble should become
more esrious than at present. and are
using what effort they can to keep
matters short of q rate war. There Is
SO little passenger traffic moving at
present that II is hardly worth fighting
about, but each road seems determined
to get what share of the business 1t
can drag off.
Chairman Caldwell of the Western
passenger association called meeting
OF the appointment committee OF the
emigrant clearing house today to con-
slider some changes in the division of
business, some Of the lines complain
ing that they were not receiving their
proper amount of traffic. The matter
was informally discussed, but no ac-
ton was taken, as all the lines recog-

has been made to work with complete
success. None of the complaints made
today were of serious character.

PORTUGUESE IN NEW YORK CITY.
or the I6. 600 In the United States the Me
tr0uoiia Has hnf yR.

4@------
or the ne. 600 In the United states the mo-
tropoiis Has but 70.
The other day John Gubbins, a Portu-
guese, was held for trial by Justice
Grady at the Yorkville police court un-
der charge of stabbing q policeman.
There is nothing strange or peculiar
about the arrest Of q man charged with
stabbing or attempting to stab a police
man, but the oddity connected with
Gubbins is the fact that he is a Portu-
guese.
How many Portuguese do you think
there are among the Z, O00, 900 inhabitants
of New York city? just 76. There are 76
of them, and it is said in police circles to
be o fact that Gubbins il the first Portu.
guese ever under arrest in this city This
would be q very creditable showing If
there were more than roof them. As it is,
the only wonder is that there are so few.
Tnthe whole United States there are 1e, 600
Portuguese. Nine thousand eight hun
dred and ffty-nine Of them are returned
by the last census as residents of Cali
fornia, 3,051 as residents of Massachu-
sets, 1913 as residents of Rhode Island
and 76 as residents of New York city.
They are a maritime people, most nu-
merous in such seaport cities as San
Francisco. Boston, Providence, New Or
leans and New Bedford, but curiously
enough almost unknown in New York,
the greatest center Of in the
western hemisphere.
Emigrants from the lands of Camoens
and the Braganzas are famous as sailors
and n~avigators, and their descendants
are scattered in many lands, notably in
Hawaii, where the Portuguese popula-
ton is considerable, and the East Indies,
where the Portuguese colonies are nu-
merous. New York is a cosmopolitan
city. Men of every race and nationality
are to be found here. The total immi-
grafton to the United States through
Ellis island from Jan. l, 1893, to Dec. 10
was 233. 597, and toward this total Por-
tugal contributed thealmost intinitesimal
total of 10 persons. The Portuguese are,
generally speaking, thrifty, hardy, in
dustrious and matter of fact. They have
little of the sentiment of their Spanish
neighbors. They are law abiding AM
administrative, and Gubbins appears
to be a backslider, stimulated perhaps to
deeds of unruly violence by New Jersey
whisky or Medford rum, both poor sub
stitutes for the fine wines of the Oporto
district shipped from Lisbon and famous
the world over.-New York Sun.
