to-day it was stated that many OF
the immigrants had complained Of
the dark prospects for Ireland this
winter weeks ago. Immigrants ar
irving later told OF the entire failure
OF the potato crop and the blight
upon the oats and barley. Many of
them came to this country to es-
cape the expected famine.
Ireland will be depopulated il i'm
migration continues as it has during
the present year." said Secretary
McCool of the Irish society. "The
astonishing number OF Sl5, 900 Irish
came into the United States up to
June l, and since that time the
number has been steadily increas-
Ing until the figure is far
above the million mark. Irish peo-
pie look to America as q country
where they will be happy, and in
nearly every Irish home now there
is a thought of getting to America
some time. There is plenty to do
for the thousands Of immigrants
who arrive. This is particularly SO

TO TRY TO COLLECT
TRANSIT CLAIMS
Persons Having Judgments
Against Company-May Pro
coed Against Stockholders.

The first steps by persons having judg-
ments against the ST. Louis Transit Com
pany, with a view of endeavoring to col
iect claims. were taken yesterday. Appli-
cations for execution were made in the
circuit Clerks office on three judgments
against the corporation.
Attorney A. r. Taylor represents the
claimants in two cases. one of which is
a judgment for 5000, given November .
last In favor Of Michael Maloney ard his
Wife The other is Il judgment for 5000
given November % last. The third judg-
ment Is for $500. given November 10 last
In favor of Katy Fuchs. who is repre-
scented by Attorney d. d. Holmes:
Appeals have been taken in the cases
without bonds being given. They are
said to be the first appeals taken in from
judgments against the Transit Company
in which bond was not furnished.
The giving of bond secures a claim tn
tho event of the judgments being af-
frmed by h upper court and prevents
a levy from being made under the judg-
ment of the lower court.
Attorney Taylor said that he would not
ave any property levied on that had been
transferred.
He said that If the Sheriff returned the
executions unsatisfied. that he would pro-
coed against the stockholders of tine
Transit Company, and that If he failed
In that, that he would attack the merger,
as he termed the absorption by the United
Railways Company of the street railroad
interests formerly controlled by the Tran
sit Company.
The result of the cases will be watched
with much interest, as it is expected that
the issue will determine whether claims
against the Transit Company can be col
lected,
