HEAVY IMMIGRATION.
ALL RECORDS LIKELY TO BE
BROKEN THIS YEAR.

Duluth, Mimi, May 2s.-The pres
emit year promises to break all records
in the volume of immigration to this
part Of the Northwest. For two
months the newcomers have been
pouring into Duluth at the rate of a
dozen carloads weekly, and from this
city they have scattered all over
Upper Michigan, Wisconsin, Min
nesota, the Dakotas and as far west
as Montana. The majority Of the
foreigners come from Finland, the
number of Firms far exceeding the
Swedes and Norwegians, who formerly
were in a large majority. The bulk
of the Firms push on westward TO the
farming regions Of the Northwest.
There also has been a large number Of
Italian immigrants this season, the
most of them settling in the iron and
copper districts Of the upper penin-
sula. IL is n noticeable fact that the
immigrants this year are far better
class than those who have arrived in
former years.

A LONDON PAPER SHOWS RAP
I'D STRIDES IN COMMERCE.

London, May 2S.-Tne bug boo Of
American competition will not down.
A London paper this week prints the
following statement giving a few
facts regarding the strides Of Ameri-
can commerce:
The worlds output Of copper last
year was 54i,SIi tons, as compared
with 4s6, 40s tons in 1900. The produc-
tion of the United States figured in
these totals for 2sl, III tons and 269,-
Ill tons respectively. Spain and
Portugal ranked second last year as .
copper producing region, but their out
put was only $1,000 tons in 1901 and
SO, S12 tons in 1900.
Experiments which have been made
with American gas coal at Copen-
hagen show that the American product
stands as high as the English coal as
regards its gas producing powers,
while the quality Of the coke obtained
is said to be somewhat better than
that secured from English gas coal
