A THOUSAND A DAY
Is the Rate at Which Immigrants Are
Coming Into This Country.

Is the Rate at Which Immigrants Are
Coming Into This Country.
Present immigration to the United
States AMOUNT to nearly 1000 a day. In
the last fiscal year the total number of
immigrants was $4,000 and the rate at
which immigration is increasing makes
likely a total for this fiscal year of about
365,O0O, or 1000 n day. though, of course,
immigration is larger in summer than in
winter, and varies according to the condi-
tons of the times and climate.
The general impression is that the great
bulk of immigrants to the United States
find homes 'in the great West" notably
those from England, Wales. Germany and
the Scandinavian countries. The con-
trary is shown, however, by recent figures
to be the case.
The States into which immigrants go by
preference are those on the Atlantic sea-
board. OF $4,000 immigrants who land
ed in this country during the last fiscal
year covered by the treasury report 127.-
900 meant to remain in New York State.
Some 61,O0O others had Pennsylvania for
their destination, and 10000 Massachu-
sets; SO that these three States absorbed
about two-thirds of the whole immigra-
ton to the United States. Minnesota,

navian and German farmers arriving in
the United States. got less than half as
many as went to Connecticut. For North
Dakota the number of immigrants was
only 1,OS0; for South Dakota, GLIB; for Ne
braska. lob; for Kansas, 600; for Mon
tana. 92O: for Wyoming, 22G; for Utah.
2O6. and for Idaho. 118.
On the other hand, nearly $500 immi-
grants found homes in Maryland, a State
which has not been in previous years re-
garded as Offering many inducements to
immigrants. Indiana got 1914 immi-
grants. and Missouri 2,4S5. Kentucky
attracted only 800, and North Carolina
only 81 immigrants. West Virginia abb
sorbed 437, but the number that found
homes in Florida was surprisingly large,
$50. The explanation of this increase
is to be found in the fact that consequent
upon the hostilities in Cuba, there was
an immigration of more than 5000 Gu
bans from that country to the United
States last year and a large number Of
them found homes in Florida. A consid-
cradle number of Cubans, too, went to
Louisiana, the foreign immigration into
which was 1916. The immigration into
Mississippi was SIS. !.
Among the States of the West info
which there was q considerable movement
of foreigners last year was Illinois, which
got $1,000. Nearly 5000 immigrants,
many of them Italians, settled in Califor.
mia, and the population of Colorado in
creased 1900 by immigration. In only
one State of the Union did the number
OF female immigrants arriving exceed the
number of male immigrants. That was
New Hampshire. Only 600 immigrants
went to Arkansas and 80 to Oklahoma.

augural ceremonies of the past. The cX-
ecutive committee in charge of the inau-
gural ceremonies of 1897 is composed of
men who thoroughly grasp the difficulties
of the situation that confronts them and
who are endeavoring to cope with them i'll
a manner that will make the inauguration
of Mr.. Mckinley the grandest and at the
same time the most perfect from the
standpoint of good sense and good taste
that has e been witnessed in this coun-
try. AT the head of this committee is
Charles j. Bell.
Gen. Horace Porter, of New York, will
be the grand marshal of the parade. He
Is perhaps the most successful organizer
of military parades in the country, the
latest example of his genius in this direc-
ton being his management of the great
sound money parade in New York. On
this occasion he succeeded in marching
$4,000 men over the entire route, accord
ing to arrangements, the rear files reach
ing the end of the route only seven min
utes behind schedule time. Gen. Porter
has the able assistance of Col. Corbin,
who had general charge of the ceremonies
on the occasion of the Inauguration of
President Garfield and was adjutant gen
eral of the last two inaugural parades.
AT Gen. POrter's% suggestion it has been
decided to condense the exercises at the
capitol as much us possible, and the pa
rude will start at once on the conclusion
of the Inauguration ceremony proper, and
will proceed Immediately to the end of the
route, the usual interruption to allow the
outgoing and incoming Presidents to
lunch together being avoided. The pa
a will be dismissed this year ut Wash
ington circle, instead of the White House,
MS formerly, and Gen. Porter expects that
the procession will be able to pass at the
rate of 1900 an hour. Twenty-four
files of foot will march in close column,
and there will be no change in formation
en- route.
Sixty Thousand Men in Line.
The first division of the procession will
be divided into three brigades, the first
to be composed of regular United States
troops and the National Guard of the
District of Columbia, the second of the
National Guard of Pennsylvania and the
third of the National Guards of other
States, headed by their Governors and
their staffs, their places in the line being
assigned according to the date of their
adoption of the constitution in the case
of the thirteen original States. md with
reference to their admission to the Union.
The second grand division will be COM
posed of civic organizations in the order
of their establishment. 1t will be divided
into two sub-sections, the first conlpris-
ing uniformed clubs, the second ununi-
formed organizations. While it is pro-
posed that the parade shall be of sufi-
cient length md of a character that shall
adequately represent all classes of Amer
leans, military. naval and civilian, the
committee on the parade are exercising
the greatest discrimination in it's compo-

IS 1T GULDENSUPPE'S HEAD?
Report Of Sensational Find Near Branch
port, n. ].
Boys Reported to Have Found Z
Plaster Of Paris Cast With HUI
man Hair Embedded.

NEW YORK. July 13.-The head of Will
liam Guldensuppe is said to have been
found by some boys in Branchport, N. J.
Acting Inspector O'Brien is said to have
received this information last night. The
head was incased in Oil cloth and plaster of
Paris.
The story told by Thomas Cooper to
his mother is that while playing with some
other boys in clump of trees at Branch
port. they picked up. in long grass, a
package, on the outside of which was a
newspaper They removed the newspaper,
and inside discovered some Oil cloth.
When they bad unfolded this they dis
closed large lump of what seemed to be
plaster of paris and through this stuck out
a number of hairs.
The boys were so frightened by the fin,!
that they took the thing, not knowing
what 1t was and threw it into a pond near
by. Then they went back to join the other
memters OF the party.
This boy. Tom Cooper. and his mother
were stopping with a family named McIn-
tyre. In Branchport. The mother said little
about 1t at the time, as she had no thought
OF the hurdle having any connection with
the GIdensuppe affair.
When she came back to this city, how
ever, she talked with persons employed in
the factory in which she worked on I'd
avenue. and in this way it came to the ears
of Acting Inspector O'Brien.
A dispatch from Branchport, N. j., saws:
Deputy Coroner Morris of Long Branch

William Guldensuppe had been found near
This place. started out to make an investi-
cation. He has not yet discovered any
thing to confirm the rumor
r. {. Bl rtt, proprietor of the Norwood
Hotel. WI !ch is near the Mcintyre home,
said he had heard nothing of the finding
OF mans head in the Shrewsbury. The
MCINTYRE home is a refuge for friendless
boys from New York. No one here could
be found who had heard of mans head
having been discovered.
