Causes OF EMIGRATION.
A British Publication Points Out Some
of<the Main Influences.

A British Publication Points Oue some
of<the Main Influences.
Washington, March 15.-Emigration
fron, the European countries to the
limited states and other countries OF
the world is discussed at considerable
length in a British publication which
has Just reached the department OF
commerce and labor thru it's bureau
of statistics. The discussion in ques-
ton is part Of an elaborate document
issued by the British board Of trade
the title of the chapter which dis
cusses emigration being Emigration
From the Chief European Countries"
The following extracts from the dis
cussion present the more important
Of its conclusions, and especially those
which relate to the United States:
"The migration Of population from
one country to another is affected by
a number of complex causes. The
whole volume of migration, of course,
depends largely on the distribution
thruout the world Of density of popu-
lation, climatic advantages, and wealth
Of natural resources, together with
facilities of communication between
the more and less densely settled and
naturally favored regions.
"As regards the volume and direc-
ton of the movement from any par
ticular country, much depends not
only on the natural resources and field
Of employment, but also on the nation-
al temperament and Characterization,
the standard Of living Of the people.
and the existence in over-sea coun-
tries of populations of similar or kim
dred character.
$50 far as emigration is a purely
economic movement, the main factors
which determine the changes In Its
volume are two-the state of the labor
market in the country from which
the emigrant starts and the state OF
the labor market in the country to
which he goes. But emigration is by
no means an exclusively economic
movement. Other causes, such as pol
itical or religious persecution, have
operated in many well known cases
to encourage the transfer of popula-
ton from one country to others.
Broadly speaking, however, the econ
omic element in migration is usually
by far the most important, and even
in the case of emigration to escape
burdensome laws (e. g., the Russian
Jews or German socialists), the time
and direction of the movement is de-
ternlined largely by changes In the
labor market in over-sea countries.

clares, 'is arming; Jews everywhere
are tanning the flames of revolution
and the danger Of the agrarian move
ment is increasing"
The article concludes: There is no
time to waste. The rescript is n fort
night old and nothing has been done.
The assembly of representatives which
it contemplates must meet at once and
the best form is that of the old zemsky
sobor."
Criticism on the conduct of the war
which has been appearing In the
newspapers has been aggravated by
General Kuropatldn's defeat and is
now of the most outspoken character.
The Russ formally abandons all hope
for the success of the war under the
present regime. sarcastically pointing
out that the administration in its de-
sire to provide Vladivostok with coal
Is supplying the Japanese fleet.
NJ Kiriloff, the Associated Press cor
respondent, who was wounded at Lao
Yang, declares that "the brave, splen-
did Russian troops" were defeated as
much by the bureaucracy as by the
Japanese.

er. One day he asked for two weeks
leave of absence which was readily
granted. Allen expressed an intention
of visiting out in Colorado. A few
days after leaving he wrote to his
wife, who was still at Dunlap. enclos-
ing $500, advising her to say nothing
about it as she might need 1t.
This aroused her anxiety and she
communicated with her husbands
father, who was minister at Anita.
The latter. supposipA from this inci-
dent, that his son mad left under q
cloud, called up Postmaster Enbody Of
Dunlap over the phone to discuss the
matter. This was the postmaster'5
first clue that anything was wrong, but
he promptly called the matter to the
attention of the postal authorities An
investigation showed that Allen had
mulcted the Office to the tune OF $1,000
and covered up his shortages in such
a manner as to make detection diff
cult. He was apprehended in Wyo-
ming and never denied his guilt.
1t now seems certain that the Fer
guson- Kennedy $4,000 breach OF
promise suit will go over until the next
term Of the federal court here. This
is the case in which Kentucky maid
en- is endeavoring to collect salve for
a wounded heart, caused by failure
to carry oout alleged promises on the
part Of the groom, w. III. Kennedy, a
wealthy farmer Of Montgomery coun-
ty. Yesterday the defendant filed a
motion to make the complaint more
definite and certain, which the court
sustained.
Several other important cases will
probably be carried over. and a num-
Der will be dismissed.

the hard roads bill.
Professor Baker Of the University OF
Illinois commanded the "antis.' lie

ture and the hard roads movement In
general and gave figures to support MS
allegation that the cost would be tre-
mendous and eventually would bank

Stirs LindIy's Wrath.
Baker, referred to the farmers oil

terms as to arouse the wrath OF Rep
resentative Cicero j. Lindly of Green
Vile, who Is member of the COM
mittee ITO educate the farmers in good
roads building"
II want you to understand" shouted
Lindly, pointing his finger at Baker.
that I come from the southern END
of the state and that j represent the
part of the state and the people you
are vilifying. I am u member OF the
legislature and am entitled to decent
treatment here. My people, too. are
entitled to decent consideration at the
hands Of the institution which draws
$500,00O each year from sthe state
treasury. Your insulting remarks are
out Of order and ] resent them"
But Lindly's stinging rebuke did not
calm the gathering, When he conclud-
ed the bombardment broke out with
renewed vigor and continued thruout
the afternoon. Senator Thomas Rees
declared he had been insulted.
"Do you know who / am?" shouted
the Springfield statesman, as he raised
his voice above the noise that pur-
posed crying him down.
Nobody cares who you are, res
ponded voice from the audience.
1t was then that Senator Rees serv-
ed notice that he had a vote on the
university appropriation and that the
institution would suffer for the un-
courteous treatment accorded the com
mittee.

The meeting is described as the

Criticised Its Methods.

Salt Lake City, March 15.--The con-
troversy of Frank j. Cannon. former
United States senator and editor of
the Salt Lake Tribune, with the Nor
mon church resulted in his excom-
munlcation from the church by the
high council. The action was based on
editorials written by Mr.. Cannon, as
sailing the policy of the higher
authorities of the church. Mr.. Cannon
admitted the authorship of the edi-
torials, and insisted in vain that he
should be permitted to prove the truth
of his assertions.
Charges were filed today against
Charles A. Snurthwaite, merchant or
Ogden and a Mormon, sunlnoning him
before the bishops court, to answer
for alleged rebellious utterances

GUNS Thrown IN RIVER.

Russians Said to Have Disposed Of
Artillery Pieces in This Manner.
New Chwang, March 15.-Military
men here advance the theory that the
difference in number Of guns the Japs
are reported to have, captured and
those Kuropatkin is reported to have
lost is owing to the fact that the Rus
SLAMS when routed having dropped
their guns into. the river thru the Ice
and abandoned others in ravines and
gullies. It is expected as soon as the
present rush at Mukden is over a
search for the lost artillery will be
started.
