CAUSES OF IMMIGRATION.

"These are the real forces that control
the situation in Europe to-day, and the
J trend OF affairs indicates that more atten-
ton and greater supervision Of emigration
pn the part Of the countries most CON
cerned will result. Tho chief causes of
emigration from Europe are the wide
spread knowledge that labor Is more gen
erousy rewarded in America than at
homo. the advice and financial assistance
Of relatives and friend- who have al
ready emigrated and the persistent activ-
ity of agents selling steamship tickets,
who are to be found all over Europe, de-
spite the fact that soliciting emigration Is
prohibited by law in nearly every Euro
pean country and by our own emigration
laws.
During the tour OF inquiry and investi-
ration the commissioners have secured
important information and have made ar
