NEW YORK, May -Thirty-one
years ago today Brooklyn bridge, for
long time the greatest structure that
spanned any river, was opened to traf-

years the great suspension bridge had
earned close to $24,OOO,OOO in tolls for
the city, according to estimates based
on the earnings of $23,224,572.31 up to
one year ago. The greatest source of
revenue is from street cars. An aver
age of about 1000, at revenue of ten
cents car, pass over the bridge every

of luxury is the desire of the rich
to live in the cottages of the poor. The
fashion is not for the new and charm
ing cottages, which some of the bos.
architects are specializing, but for the
old timbered, tumbled down home
steads from which possibly some long
established family is evicted. Three
or four thousand dollars is spent in
repairing the humble house. Old oak
doors and silver hinges are added;
the potato patch is transplanted into
fashionable orchard and expensive
Dutch bulbs are planted round about
it. With an old cottage you are in

Ireland and America.
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
The following extract is taken from q
very interesting article in The Star Of
March Is, entitled What Becomes Of the
Sons of Erin Who Migrate From the
Emerald Isle?':
During the last ninety years Ireland
has lost over 100000 Of her people
through migration, and Of this number
it is probable that at least a million and
a quarter have come to America.
AS this item conveys a wrong impress
sion as to the number of immigrants
from Ireland to the United States in the
last ninety years. will you kindly permit
me to offer a few remarks on the SUBJ
ject?
1t is true that the population Of ireland
decreased from 6.so1.se7 in 1921 to 1880, :
219 in 1911. but the deductions drawn
from this fact by the author Of the ar
ticle referred to are erroneous.
According to the census reports, the
white population of the United States
increased 50 per cent from 1870 to 1900.
during which decade there was little i'm
migration.
A table of the population Of different
European countries published in the
United States census report for 1850
shows that the increase in population of
Ireland from 1921 to 1881. Prussia from
1881 to 1S41 and England from 1871 to
1851 was. for each, about Is per cent
Had there been no emigration from the
Emerald Isle and had the population OF
1921 increased at the rate of 20 per cent
per decade, there would have been 3d.
OQ5, 927 inhabitants in the Land of the
Shamrock in 1911.
1t is rather fortunate that we have the
official reports of the United States gov
eminent to enlighten US on the number
of immigrants from Ireland. They show
that from 1921 to 1911 NINETY years.,
1856, 6S3 Irish immigrants arrived in the
United States.
In this connection it may be stated
that the official statistics show that the
Irish immigrants constituted 51.33 per
