Admiral Togo, while not strictly

Russians at st. Petersburg are said
to fear a disaster in the far east. They
are dubious as to the success of Port

experts believe the best plan will be
to send the Port Arthur squadron to
Vladivostock.

FOREIGN Immigration.
COMMISSIONER SARGENT TELLS
WHAT HE KNOWS.
Problem Was DIscussed-ls Of Great
Importance to People of This ccun-
try-NearIy a Million a Year Come
to This country-Department Of La
Dor Should Look After Them.

Philadelphia.-The immigration prob
lem was discussed at session OF the
American Academy of Political and So
cial Science. The subject was pre-
scented in a comprehensive address by
Frank P. Sargent, commissioner OF
immigration, who spoke on govern
ment regulations. Among other speak
ers was Franklin H. Giddings, LII. D.,
professor of sociology at the Columbia
university. Speaking on "The Prob
lem of Assimilation" Commissioner
Sargent said, in part:
mo question of public policy is OF
greater Importance or affects so close
ly the interests of the people OF this
country for the time, present and to
come, as that of immigration. 1t pre-
sents both a practical and a senti-
mental side. 1t can not be dealt with
as other public issues. 1t has become
an established principle of this govern
ment to frown upon the efforts OF for
eign countries to send to the United
States to become burdens thereupon
the INDECENT, the morally depraved,
the physically and mentally diseased,
the shiftless and all those who are in
duced to leave their own country, not
by their own Independent volition and
their own natural ambition to seek
a larger and more promising field OF
individual enterprise, but to carry out
some selfish scheme, devised to take
undue advantage of some classes OF
our own people or for other improper
purposes. Such policy is a wise one,
as well as obligatory upon the govern
ment of this great country.
"The total estimated alien immigra-
ton to the United States from 1776
to 1920 was 250000. The total num-
Der of arrivals for the fiscal year end
ed June 8, 1908, was S57,046. This is
the greatest number that ever applied
for admission in single year. The
nearest approach to this was in 1889,
when $4,000 were admitted"
