FEWER IMMIGRANTS
COME HERE TO STAY.
Larger Proportion Leave United States
Than In Former Years.

The census bureau experts who have
been studying the immigration statis-
tics of the 1910 enumeration announce
that the newer arrivals do not settle in
the United States in such large proper
tons as did the immigrants of the pre-
ceding periods.
For example, of the 13,3i5,545 white
persons of foreign birth who were In
the United States on April Is, 1910, al
most exactly 100000 had come here
since Jan. /, 1901.
During the period from Jan. l, 1901.
to April I, 1910, the bureau Of immi-
grafton recorded the arrival In the
United States of S,24S,S90 immigrants.
OF these 5,oO0,O9S, or coo per cent
were accounted for as present in the
United States at the census enumera-
ton of April Is, 1910.
In the period preceding the census
of 1900, from Jan. l, 1891, to June /,
1900, the number of immigrants re-
ported was 3,421, ,1S4, Of whom 2,609,-
173, or 76.3 per cent, were counted by
the census enumeration Of June 1,
1900.
OF the immigrants who arrived since
Jan. l, 1901, over 1,1S6,O00 settled in
New York city and state, adding their
number to the 1,543,224 foreign born
whites who were here at the beginning
of 1901. The number of existing for
elgn born whites who got here before
or after Jan. 1. 1901, In some of the
enstern sta tes Is as follows.

STOMACH IN HIS TH0RAX.
English Boy Dies-Doctors Were Un-
able to Diagnose Case.

What is believed to have been a
unique surgical experience was related
at an inquest in London over the body
of boy four years Of age who was
run over by cart some time ago, but
was apparently not seriously hurt
The boy was kept in a hospital for
week and then sent home apparently
fully recovered He died suddenly
three weeks later.
The autopsy showed that the boys
stomach was missing from It's regular
place, and there was hole about one
and one half inches in diameter in the
diaphragm. An examination Of the
thoraX showed that the stomach was
there 1t was greatly dilated, being as
large as that of a man. There was
large vacant space on the left side Of
the chest, and the left lung had COM
pletely collapsed. The pressure of the
stomach displaced the heart, causing
death from syncOpe.
The child did not complain of pain
and played around as usual.

Inasmuch as a change OF five would
reverse the control of the senate, some
thing of the importance OF the fight
may be realized. In both houses the
new Progressive party Is putting up
candidates in almost every state and
district, and this factor makes an ele-
ment Of uncertainty that prevents even
approximately accurate forecasts. One
possible outcome, in the senate at least,
is that no party will have a clear ma
jority and that the Proressives will
hold the balance Of power as at pres
ent A landslide either way, however,
might change this.

Grace Arnold, aged years, will
probably be crippled for life, as the
result of a vicious attack made on
her by an angry hog few days ago.
The injured girl is a daughter of Mr..

of the pen while an employe of Mr..

"CRUEL AND BARBAR0US, :"
SAYS WIFE OF GRACE
Mrs, Daisy Grace Files Suit in
Philadelphia for Divorce
From Husband

Especial Dispatch. to The Journal.)
PHILADELPHIA. Pa, Sept. 19.-Thc
beginning Of what win probably be the
last chapter of the story of the famous
Grace case was written today, when
Daisy Ulrich Oplo Grace of this city,
filed petition in divorce against her
husband, Eugene Hamilton Grace, of
Newman. Ga.
The petition was received by Judge
Michael in common pleas court a noon
and few minutes later The court an
nounced trat a subpoena citing Grace to
appear in this city on tho first Monday
of October would at once issue.
Tho papers, which we're filed by VIII
liam A. Carr. Of the law firm of Carr &
Hepburn, recite that Mr.. and Mrs. Grace
were married in New Orleans. La, May
10, 1911. and that they lived together
in Philadelphia and various other cities
uli TO the time OF the sensational shoot
ling Of Grace in their home in Atlanta
March 8. 1912.
The ground upon which the court is
asked to sever the marital relations of
the couple is "cruel and barbarous
treatment" and the petition recites that
'the respondent has offered such indig-
mites to the person of the libellant as
to render her condition intolerable and
life a burden" and ends with the allie
CATION that 1.-The respondent has by cruel
and barbarous treatment endangered the
life of the libelIant"
ANTICIPATE DEMAND.
Under the laws of Pennsylvania, the
respondent has a right to demand a bill
of particulars giving specific allegations
of cruelty. Unless Grace makes this
demand and asks for a jury trial, a mas
ter will be appointed by the court to
hear testimony and the case will pro-
coed behind closed doors. That attor-
neys for Mrs. Grace anticipate such a
demand on the part of the invalid hus-
band, or at least that they are not
averse to a public hearing. is indicated
by the fact that Attorney Carr did not
exercise his legal right to have the pa
pers in the case impounded.
Prior to the filing of the papers. At
torney Car promised The Journal a
personal statement, but a.er rescinded
his promise, explaining that out of cour-
tesy to the other side he would defer
discussing the case for publication and
would allow It to take its course through
legal channels without unnecessary pub
lcity.
MAY CITE AN ASSAULT.
Should Grace demand specific bill of
particulars, it is said on what is consid-
cred reliable authority, that the story
OF an ASSAULT alleged TO have been com
mitteG on Mrs. Grace by her husband
during the time they were residing at
4246 Spruce street, this city, will be
presented in evidence. II is said that on
the occasion referred to Grace's treat
ment Of his wife resulted in the break

fnement to her bed for several days.
