That financial expressions in the United States have largely to do "ith "a decrease of immigration and an in creas, of emigration is we'll argued by the Cincinnati EnQuirer, and seem ingly established by its figures. The New York figures, it ta,.s us. for the year up to and including October 1908, are said to show a decrease as against 1902 of S56,S29; also, that there Is an increase for same time in emigration from this country of o3a,- I'll. The figures of immisration are Of considerable interest From 1920. when records were commenced, to the close of 1907 the Immigration amount ed to 25,9S5.237 persons >dd to this 25O,000, as an estimate of the immi- grafton from 17S9 to 1S20, and we have total of a6.235,931 For all practical purposes of comparison these figures are correct If we are to presume that economic conditions. ireluding financial Impressions in #tbe United States, have to do consider ably with Immigration We arc saA- ported by some peculiar aeures for
 calculation. This falHng off dWia2 the year soon to close is supposed t5 be due to what in New York has be- come known as the great panic os -;19o6-7" We find. according to tAe fables, that in 1873 the failures amounted to $22S.49o.aoo, while G.

 There was annual decrease of i'm migration down to 1879, when it fell to 177,S26. During those years fail ures were very heavy, reaching 10,- ITS instances, involving $234, ,SS3, ,132. In 1884 and 1885 there was another increase of failures, being 1e.e6S and

iicient to justify it. He cOntended had practically removed the considera tion of the question, temporarily, from the commission, and for it to forbid the application of the new rates would be in contempt of court. At least, ne declared, the commission had no right to declare rate unreasonable without declaring another rate to be reason able. He urged that the proper step for the commission and the shippers {; would have been to proceed to the
 Federal Court and there ask an iu- junction against the operation of the rates proposed by the railroad com
 pany, which action, he said, would have forced a consideration Of the reasonableress of the rates.
 He admitted that the commission had the right, in the abstract, to make Ia new rate and intimated that sucn power was given it by virtue of the ruling of the Federal Court. Attorney General Kirby remarked that the Fed eral Court did not give this power to the commission; that the commission
 possessed it already by virtue of its
 very existence, and that the Federal
 Court simply further recognized this
 right of the commission.
 Mir. Kirby contended for the com
 mission that it was not obligatory
 upon that body to declare new rate, but that it did have the power to de- clare another rate unreasonable and to forbid its operation, with the pow
 CT of ordering penal suits for viola ton of this order in the face of &
 forbidden tariff, then, said the attor- ney general, it would be the duty of the railroads to make another rate and one which the commission could regard as reasonable, or at least, un- der the present circumstance, regard as tolerable; but no railroad company had the right to establish a rate which was manifestly exorbitant, as in the case of the present rates.

 At the hearing this morning Col. John M. Moore represented the rail roads affected, and Attorney General Kirby was present as attorney for the commission. X number of prominent shippers were also present, but the most important feature was the evi- dence contained ill the numerous eX- pense bills offered by the commission, showing that the railorads have been applying the new rates in oben viola tion of the prohbitory order of the commission. It was to explain this ac- tion and show cause why the commis- sion should not order prosecution that the hearing Was arranged.
 Colonel Moore very frankly stated that the railroads had ignored the or der of the commission on the belief that it W&s not based on grounds suf-
