yne Immiarnnt rrafiic bureau.

The Western Immigrant bureau may be
taken out of the Western Passenger as
ISOLATION and run as an entirely lnde-
pendent organization. Some of the lines
insist that tine change will be made out
it is of far too important character to
be passed upon hastily. The Immigrant
bureau has grown faster and larger tnap
any of its promoters ever imagined woula
be possible. It is now contemplating ths
establishment of EuroDean branches ana
factor among the Western roads. While
strong enough to stand alone, its separa-
ton from the association, it is thought,
would probably add little or nothing 10 us
efficiency. and on the other hand, might
tend to weaken the association.
