that he is. by reason Of his peculiar con-
ception of political morality. unfit: be-

The census Of 1900 showed 3, 901 AT cit
liens of the United States both OF whose
parents were born in Ireland.
Since the census Of 1900 was taken,
the average arrivals from Ireland have
been about 5000 per year. which has
added at least 10000 to the total OF
1900 and, making the allowance for deaths
and departures. increased the number of
natives in the United States to nearly
2. O0O. 900.
Improved Conditions in Ireland.
The improved conditions in Ireland dur
ing the last few years have caused a
considerable decrease In emigration. At
the present time a smaller number Of
people are seeking work in other coun-
tries than ever before since the famine
Of the forties. This is the most sig
nificant evidence OF the prosperity Of the
country and the success of the govern
ment in promoting contentment and inn
proving the condition of the peasants by
the enactment OF the land laws and the
work OF the congested districts board OF
which have written st length In previ-
Gus letters.
Low tide in emigration was reached
during the first six months of 1903. when
the total number departing from ireland
was only 1881, a decrease Of S.713 in
comparison with the corresponding period
United States and 1886 to Canada; !. 1865
came from Leinster province, 1892 from
Munster. 4.511 from Ulster and 1910 from
Connaught.
The total number of emigrants from
Ireland in 1907 was 39.O62. but unless
something extraordinary happens. the
total for this year will fall below $4,000.
Commerce With America.
During the last fifteen years the popu-
lation Of ireland has decreased 232 ,37O
and during the last fifty years 1t has
taken on three and one-half millions. Dur
ing the last fifteen years the population
Of Scotland has increased 6s0.625. and
that Of England and Wales has increased
$40, 1877. The birth rate in leland is
larger than it IL in either England or
Scotland. and the death rate Is about the
same. SO that the decrease in population
has been entirely due to emigration.

is affected by decision which has just
been handed down by Federal Judge
Cochran at Cincinnati in the famous
Harris-Rhinock lawsuit over S25 shares
of stock in the Latonia jockey club.
The case was argued before Judge
Cochran at Frankfort. KY, last Sep
tember, and the decision is in favor Of
Harris.
Harris was member of the Apple
gate syndicate which bought the hold
ings of George G. Perkins in 1895. Per-
kins afterward sought to recover the
stock, and Applegate, as trustee, filed
a suit against Perkins in 1902, which
was decided in his favor by the court
of appeal in March. 1905. Applegate
then assigned the stock to the Cincin-
natl Amusement company. which in
turn sold it to Joseph L. Rhinock and
associates. The present suit hinged
upon the question as to whether Apple
gate exceeded his authority as trustee
when he assigned the stock to the
amusement company. Judge Cochran
decided that he did and ordered a
referee to make an accounting of the
income OF the Latonia jockey club since
tho institution of the suit.

Jockey Preston

The New California Jockey club off,
cials have received confirmation of the
press advices from Los Angeles that
Jockey Preston, who is now here, was
implicated in an alleged attempt to
bribe Jockey Archibald to pull" Varie-
ties in race In which that horse was
beaten a head by Roy Ofutts John
Lyle during the closing days of the
Santa Anita meeting. Presiding Judge
Hopper has been advised that Judge
Hamilton, who presided at Arcadia, will
reach Emeryville within q day or two,
when. ii Is expected, there will be fur
ther developments in the case.
Jockey Archibald. who also is here,
declares that Preston informed him IN
the Jockeys room prior to the race
that ID. Riley, formerly trainer for y.
z. de Arman, had requested him (Pres-
tom to let Archibald know that he
would receive a substantial sum of
money if he would take care that
Varieties did not win. Archibald says
that he tried his best to win, and that
he thought he had won until he came
back to the stand to find John Lyle's $
number displayed.
Jockey Preston. when interviewed at
Emeryville yesterday declined to make
any statement concerning the case If
the facts are as alleged it is difficult to
understand how the authorities can
pass over the part this boy played in
the affair without taking disciplinary
action. jockey who acts as 20
between in a dishonest transaction is
even more dangerous to the welfare
Of the sport than an outsider, whose
opportunities TO tamper with riders are
not to be compared with those which
are open to fellow Jockeys.
