The Russlan-Ja2an war was hailed
with shout Of delight by the depart
ment officials. for it was thought many
more Of the "desirables" would flock to
this country. In this. however. they
were mistaken. The Car evidently

migration to this country took a tre-
mendous drop just at the beginning Of
the war
In April, 1903, the Russian immigra-
ton TO this country was 1901. and for
the same month of this year-iust about
the time the war began-the total ap-
plications for admission amounted to
only 1881. For the first six months Of
1903 the total was 1891, and for the
same period this year, 75,49, a decrease
in the six months OF over 5000.
High Order of Intellect.
The average class of immigrants from
Russia are Of a high order Of intellect
and while many with this same advan-
tage come from other countries, the
average is not up to that OF Russia.
The immigrant inspectors at Ellis
Island have little trouble with the Rus
sian. He is asked a few questions, given
a word or two of caution, and turned
adrift. The inspectors do not know
where he goes, nor do they care. They
are satisfied that the Russian can take
care Of himself. and this he does.
One Of the characteristics Of the Rus
sian immigrant is his liking for the
large cities, principally those of the
East. 1t is stated that New York, Buff
falo, Rochester, and Albany get more
than three-fourths of the total Russian
immigration.
The Russian, as a rule, is skilled
mechanic. and it is probably due TO this
fact that he strikes for the large cities.
He is given the credit Of being good
workman. steady. and industrious, and
has no trouble in obtaining employment
