countrys population is of the most
alarming nature The registrar gen

istics for 1904, which show a decrease

1903. AT the same time the figures arc
|ominous, for last year 37,4I5 emigrants,
or 85 per 1000 Of the estimated popu-
latlon, left Irish ports, and nearly 81
per cent of these were between the
ages of IS and IS years. with more
than 30 per cent between 20 and Is.
These figures indicate that it is the
flower of Irish manhood and woman
hood that Ireland is losing in her emi.

LUMBER TRANSFERS
DECLARED STRIKE OFF

Chicago, July 21.-The strike of
the lumber drivers in this city has
been declared off. SIX hundred strik-
ing employees of the lumber dealers
voted on the question OF ending the
strike and were almost unanimously
in favor of returning to their old
places regardless of the action of fel-
low strikers. Other local unions of
the teamsters involved in the long
continued struggle against the Chi
cago Employers Association will take
similar action by a referendum vote if
the recommendation of the teamsters'
joint council are carried out.
The strike, has been one of the most
annoying, bitterly contested ones of its
kind ever known in this city. About
thirty lives have been lost and there
have been numerous cases OF assault,
in many of which victims have been
seriously injured, while the strike was
in progress.
