IMMIGRATION THROUGH CANADA.
Com missioner POwderly Has Secured
Promises to Stop 1t.

II V PoWderIy commissioner Of fmnd-
grafton. has returned from Canada, Where
he went with Assistant Secretary Taylor
of the Treasury Department to discuss with
Canadian officials and the managers of rail-
roads and steamship lines the question or
undesirable immigration to the. United
States through Canada. SO many immi-
grants are coming to this country through
that route now that the treasury has for
some time been alarmed and has threat
ened to put into execution stringent plans
to put stop to the influx. This plan, how
ever. gave promise of discriminating against
some of the railroads, and that this
might be avoided the railroads and steam
ship lines were given opportunity to say
what they would do to put stop to the
evil complained of. At the conference in
Canada the railroad and steamship au-
thorities made number of promises and
suggestions, all subject to the ratification
of their lines One Of these plans If finally
adopted, will permit the examination of all
immigrants destined for Canada or this
country at the port of Liverpool before
sailing, the shipping companies to refuse
to bring over all persons diseased and un-
desirable in some other ways. Another
plan will permit the examination of all i'm
migrants arriving atlQuebec or st. John 3,
unless 1t Is absolutely certain that they
are destined for points in Canada The
trouble now is that hundreds of Immigrants
arrive at Quebec, whose tickets read to
points near the Canadian border. 1t is
morally certain that their intention is to
come into the United States within a few
days after their landing and they DO come
in, but under the present Canadian laws
there is way these immigrants can be
reached by the officials of the United
States 1t Is felt that even IL an exami-
nation were permitted to the inspectors of
this country at Quebec and St. Johns the
purpose would be evaded. If a man were
found Objectionable and fit for deporta ton
he would refuse to be deported and there
are no laws in Canada to compel his return
This plan might accomplish something
where immigrants were ignorant of their
rights. but 1t Is not believed that it would
be effective. The examination at Liver
pool and other places of shipment would
1t Is thought, Sc somewhat effective IL the
steamship lines will agree to it.
Something definite is expected from the
transportation companies within a short
time and Assistant Secretary Taylor will
decide what position the treasury will take
