Alien thrush for Coming Year Prom
ises to Reach 1, 100000.
The fiscal year 1913 promises to
be a record-breaking one for imml-
cation.
Daniel J. O'Keefe, commissioner
general of immigration, is in posses
sion of reports from Ellis Island and
other immigration stations showing
that more immigrants are seeking
admission into the United States than
at any corresponding period during
the past five years.
During the first four months of
the current fiscal year, beginning
July /, the total number of alien i'm
migrants admitted into the United
States was 374,3S9, says Washing
ton letter. This represents an in
crease of about 60 per cent. in the
tide of immigration toward the Unit
ed States during these months as
compared with the same months in
1911. If this rate of increase is
maintained until next June the immi-
grafton for the year will approximate
100000. 1t will smash all American
records by nearly 100000.
During the first four months of
the current year the number of i'm
migrants admitted at Ellis Island
was 276,9S5. This was more than
the total number admitted through
all ports in July, August, September
and October, 1911 which was $685.
S64.
About one-fifth (76,653) of all the
immigrants admitted were Italians.
The greatest number of South ltali-
ans ever admitted in one year was
242,497 in the fiscal year 1907. At
the present rate, about 250,O0O of
them will be admitted during the
fiscal year 1913.
During the first four months Of
the current year the number of Polish
immigrants admitted was 41,634,
giving them second place only to the
Italians while the Jews admitted
ranked third, with 34,526, who came
into the country during July, August,
September and October.
During July, August, September
and October the tide of immigration
was stronger from than to the Bal
kan States. In these months 4,S12
Bulgarians, Servians and Montene-
grins; 2S,5S6 Greeks and S54 Turks
were admitted, making a total Of
34,252 immigrants and nonimml-
grants. In the same period 2,111
Bulgarians, Servians and Monteneg-
rims; 9,577 Greeks and S64 Turks
left the United States a total of 49,
PIP emigrants and non-immigrants.
The excess of admissions over de-
partures for the five races during the
four months Immediately preceding
the outbreak of the Balkan war was
21,140. The Turks are the only one
of these five races whose emigration
from the United States exceeded their
immigration into this country.

SOME METALS THAT
KILL THE MICROBES

Experiment seems to show that there
are certain metals which are capable
of destroying microbes that come in
contact with them.
The microbes experimental with were
cultivated for the purpose an Jelly
spread on plate, and pieces of metal
were dropped upon the jelly while it
was still moist.
Any metal that had the property of
arresting the development of the mi
crobes destroyed them, not only just
under the place where it lay, but for
a narrow space around it. The width
of this space varied both with the kind
of metal and the kind of microbe.
Pure gold. when freshly cleaned and
FURNISHED, had no effect upon the mi
crobes. Pure nickel and platinum and
a few other metals also failed to affect
the organisms. But cadmium, copper
brass, zinc and silver destroyed them
tho hrst nan,cd metal especially acting
quickly and effectively.
1t has been observed that the metals
that affected the microbes were those
that are readily attacked by chemical
reagents, while those that resist sucl
reagents, like gold, had no effect. From
this fact it has been concluded that
q the action upon the organisms is due
to a solution of the metals taking place
in the jelly.
