immigration to this country has been
decreasing mt very rapid rate during
the last few years, though we are siill
receiving u considerable number OF
foreign born citizens each month. The
government statistics show that there
has been n steady decline in immigration
since 1892. Thus during thc fiscal year
ending June 30, 1892, there arrived
56G, G63 immigrants. The same period
OF the succeeding year show but 42S,-
652 arrivals and in 1891 the number
had sunk to 275, 76i. The prospect is
that the twelve months ending June 80,
1895, will show a still further reduction.
The statistics for nine months al this
year give the number OF immigrants
arriving as l10,9S0. 1t is probable that
the immigration during April, May and
June will not bring the total figure up
to 100000. AS compared with three
years ago the volume al immigration
has heretofore shrunk by considerably
more than onehnlf. 1t IL also the
smallest number OF immigrants that
have landed in this country for period
81 fifteen years past.
The hard times are doubtless RESPONSE
BILE in large measure for the remarkable
falling of in immigration. Thousands
have probably been deferred from seek
ing their fortunes in this country by
reports OF the difficulty to obtain en-

period Of depression is over, there is
likely TO be nm unprecedented rush
toward this country. All those who
have postponed the time Of coming will
be addet! To the regular number, so that
the increase in immigration at that time
should be even more remarkable than
the present decrease.
AT the present time, however, our
foreign born population is not growing
very rapidly. Not only is it receiving
fewer accessions than usual, but accord
ing to the Philadelphia Press there is n
considerable emigration taking place.
Many thousands OF Europeans are said
to he returning to their native country.
being disappointed in their expectations
OF acquiring wealth more rapidly than
at home. The Press figures the total
immigration likely to be recorded dur
ing the present decade mt 100000.
During the decade from 1880 TO 1890
tho total immigration was 6,23S.72S.
Therefore the ratio OF increase in the
country's population is likely to suffer
somewhat from the diminished immgra-
ton received during the present decade.

Bcsscmers are going rapidly, and the
price at which they are sold is not
equivalent TO tho real worth OF the ore.
II seven millions tons Of Bcssemer ore are
demanded from Lake Superior this sea-
son, where is II to come from? A con-
servativc estimate would place one
million tons with the Marquette range,
hall million with the Menomincc, two
millions with the Gogebic. This would
leave something like three and hall
millions tons to come from the Mesabi.
With the change TO Besscmcr that has
been SO pronounced within the past two
years, the finding Of additional Bcssemcr

The Mesabi win be needed, as the older
