The Trackmen's Strike.

The Lehigh Valley trackmen's strike
situation remains unchanged today
The officials express the opinion that
all OF the men will resume work on
or before Monday OF next week.
About fifteen of the strikers return
ed to work yesterday and n number
Of new men were put to work today.
At present there is no urgent work and
the strike does not in any way inter-
fere with the road or its operations.
The roadbed Is in good shape and
though nc new work can be COM
menced the company is satisfied to
await the return OF the men.
On the mountain cutoff one Of the
trackmen who remained at work was
mobbed by a crowd of the strikers at
on early hour yesterday. The man
Immediately quit work and left his
boarding house.
The men employed on the cutoff are
principally foreigners. They are deter
mined to allow no one to resume work
and there may he trouble unless the
strike is ended before new men are
put to work. A large crowd of strik-
ers gathered near the depot last even
ing. They talked quietly and made no
demonstration.
The company Is anxious to fill the

the number Of them born in each OF
the great countries the amount OF in
termarriage between these foreigners
and the natives, the proportion of the
foreigners who settle in the cities and
those who seek the country, their abil-
ity to read and to speak English, and
the law-abiding character Of the popu'
lation.
1t Is sometimes said, for instance,
that crime Is specially common among
the foreign population. But this state
ment can not be supported by the CEN
sus figures. Few crimes are committed
by persons under fifteen years of age.
and vast numbers Of the natives are
under that age and therefore can not
commit crime. When comparison is
made between the native prisoners and
the natives over fifteen years of age,
and the foreign prisoners and the for
eign population over fifteen years of
age, one finds that the proportion OF
persons in prison Is about 30 per cent.
greater among the natives than among
the foreign-born population.
Another point brought out clearly by
the census figures is that immigrants
move but comparatively short dis
tance. The Canadian immigrants live
mainly along the Canadian frontier,
and the MexiCans mainly along the
southern boundary. Thus in 1890 the
Canadians were in a plurality among
the foreign born in Maine, New Hamp-
shire, Vermont, Michigan, Montana,
and Washington. The Mexicans, on
the contrary, were in a plurality in
New Mexico and Arizona. The Ger
mans, however, have spread all over
| the United States, and were in a plu-
| rality among the foreign born in
| twenty-six states and territories.
To the several foreign-born elements
Of our population 1t is a matter OF
pride and interest to know the number
of persons OF their nationality in the
| United States, and their general econ
| omic condition. In 1890 there were
more than 100000 residents in the
United States who were born in for
| eign countries. OF this number about
80 per cent. were born in Germany, 20
per cent. in Ireland, and about 10
per cent, in Canada and Newfound-
land. From 1921 to 1880 the United
| Kingdom contributed 53 per cent. OF
the total in migration to the United
| StdlSs, anu HtlIldIy 90 per CeHt-
In the decade 1881 to 1890 the immi-
| grants from the United Kingdom con-
stituted only 2S per cent. of the total
| immigration, the proportion from Ger
many being slightly less, In the ten
years 1861 to 1870 the combined immi-
grafton from Austria, Hungary, Rus
sia, Poland and Italy constituted only
per cent. of the total immigration.
In the decade 1881 to 1890 this propor-
| tion rose to II per cent, and in the
nine years lS91-1S99 to more than Ga
| per cent.
| We Of the United States are all i'm
| migrants or the descendants Of immi-
| grants. A proper pride on the part of
recent immigrants in the land OF their
birth, and a reasonable desire to Sc
cure that recognition which Is due to
their numbers and Importance should
| lead all persons Of foreign birth to
| welcome the census enumerator and
TO answer his questions willingly and
accurately.

The Hillside Coal and Iron COM
pany's breaker at Forest City, which
was destroyed by fire "Wednesday
morning, was one Of the best and most
rnoderniy equipped in the valley. orig
finally It was built to prepare 500 tons
4 day. In April Its average output
was 1900 tons a day. This increase
In capacity indicates the improvements
n underwent in the eighteen years 1t
was In operation.
The origin of the fire Is still a mys-
terry. The flames started at the head
df the breaker about eight feet from
the top. When the engineer discovered
them, at about $40 a. m, they were
raging flercely, and although the fire
department made a quick response and
vigorous fight they could not head
them of.
The loss is between $4,000 and $780,
600 and the insurance $4,000. General
Manager w. A. May could not say
authoratively that the breaker would
be rebuilt at once. but thought 1t like
ly that It would. Six hundred men
and boys are thrown out OF employ
ment.
