In this case, however, it happens that the arrivals have been increasing year by year for several successive years, giving the large total for the late year the more significance. According to the Bureau of Statistics considerably over six hundred thousand immigrants from abroad came here during the late year. The report makes it 619,320, and the total is likely to be slightly further increased, since while the figures given embrace the arrivals at all the principal customs districts, they do not embrace those at the minor districts, which, though not very important, still add something to the aggregate.

THE IMMIGRATION MOVEMENT AND ITS CHARACTER. The shooting last Saturday at Pittsburg of Mr. H. Manager of the Carnegie Steel Company, by an anarchist and foreigner, ought to direct attention anew to the need of restricting immigration so as tainly if possible that class we have reached the point of characters. Cer- in our national career where a heavy immigration movement can no longer be regarded as an unmixed blessing. It may be admitted that the laws intended to shut out certain immigrants are being more rigidly enforced than before. Nevertheless, the tide of immigration classes of this way keeps tlie high down still smaller to that year total of 1883), — sand greater, or 619,320. If to the 619,320 for the late year we add the 560,319 that came here in year preceding, we get a total the two years in the large aggregate of 1,179,639. In other words, the foreign element in our population during tlie two years has been increased almost 1^ million. What a problem in social economics, in citizenship, in education and in government such an addition of foreigners presents persons whose habits and customs are different from our own, the bulk of them not even speaking our language. We have stated that the late year's immigration was the largest with one exception in the history of the country. The exception was the year 1882. In that year the arrivals were reported at 788,992, but this included no less than 98,295 persons from the British North American provinces, for the 0.

We know all that there has in recent decades been a distinct deterioration among grants the classes now (taken in the type of immigrants, even furnishing the best. as a whole) are of a The immimuch lower ago. came here two or three decades The change, however, which we have chiefly in mind relates to the sources of the arrivals order than those that — to the race Take, for instance, the movement in the late year. No less than 117,419 of the total number of immigrants came from Russia and Poland. From Great Britain (England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales combined) the arrivals during the same twelve months were only 117,068, and from Germany they were 130,622; 80 that Russia sent us more than the United Kingdom and not far from as much as Germany. But besides these 117,419 immigrants from Russia and Poland we got in the same year 45,797 from Bohemia and Hungary and 60,944 from Italy, making a total from those three sources of 224,160. As 619,320 immigrants came in altogether during the twelvemonths, those thrte sources furnished considerably more than changes. FUcal Year . CtAgS I.

How to assimilate this large element and make good citizens of them, or what to do with them if they cannot be assimilated, and how to check further additions that is the problem that confronts American statesmanship. Many of the immigrants are vicious, degraded, ignorant, amenable neither to one-third of the whole. How different the result in law nor reason, have no code of morals, know nothing about the theory of our government, and in fact this particular from that ten years ago, in 1882.

We have just re-enacted stringent provisions ception in our history. Yet even in that year of very to keep out the Chinese, an industrious race, and of heavy arrivals Russia sent us only 21,590 immigrants, whom, according to a Census Bulletin recently issued, Bohemia and Hungary but 15,531, and Italy 32,159. there were in 1890 only 107,475 in the whole country; The three sources combined then furnished only but we allow Russians, Poles, Bohemians, Hungarians, 69,280 out of a total of 090,697, while in the late year &c., to come here in unlimited numbers. Is it no^ furnished 224,160 out of a total of 619,320, so they that the proportion has risen from about one-tenth to over one-third. Tne — contrast becomes even more striking if we take — the immigration movement of the last two years both heavy years and compare it with the movement of the two years from 1880 to 1882. In the last two year* we have received no less than 192,342 immigrants from Russia, 136,999 from Italy and 85,921 from Bohemia aud Hungary, or 415,262 together out of a total from all sources for the two years of 1,179,639. So that in this case, too, it remains true that cousiderably over one third of the whole is found to be of the most objectionable kind. In the two years from 1880 to 1882 the Russian contingent reached only 32,245, the Bohemian only 22,357 and the Italian 47,560. — — In brief, the three combined sent only 102,162, or but %bout one-half the number (192,342), contributed by Russia alone in the last two years. As the contributions from those sources have increased, those from other races and nationalities have diminished. Thus the number of German immigrants was 461,115 in 1880 to number from 1882, but only 344,176 in 1890 to 1892; the about time that our legislators turned their attentio from the Chinese immigration problem, so-called, to the real and more pressing problem immigration ? of controlling the gen- eral current of PAYINQ FOR IMPROVEMENTS OUT OF INCOME. and particularly English investseem to be considerably exorcised over the disposition of American railroad managers to spend some part of the net earnings of the properties European ors, in investors, our railroads, still under their charge (provided these earnings allow it) adding to the value aud security of the properties', rather than distributing the whole amount in divi dends to the shareholder?. This policy, as is known, does not command approval abroad.

As illustrating the prevailing feeling abroad on this point we may note that a leading road ia Colorado was obliged a year ago to suspend dividends on its preferred stock, and was sharply criticised for the act, though the management proved very conclusively that the earnings did not admit of the payment of the dividend, and that therefore no other course was possible. The same road has latterly been doing much better and showing improved earnings, and already the English shareholders are getting restive because the managers will not immediately resume the payment of dividends. [Vol. LV. under the present conservative methods, what would be the result under a change in that policy. The amount of the new capital requirements would of course be increased, since surplus net earnings would no longer be available to any extent for that purpose, and under the increase in the borrowing requirements the capital credit of the borrower would, except in the case of the companies of special strength, be impaired. Not only would the difficulty of securing the money needed be enhanced by reason of the increase in the amount required, but also by reason of the fact that the knowledge that the company was living up to its means, as it were, would make investors less inclined The Pennsylvania, which certainly has an enviable to take its securities and banks less disposed to aceept record both as regards the payment of regular divi- its paper.

On the other hand, the banks which do business only in the Prov- inces, as well as those which have branches both in London and the Provinces, with the exception of two or three, all maintain the same rates of dividend as they paid in the first half of last year. The London mouey market is more dependent upon the Stock Exchange demand, upon the operations financial houses, and upon international trade, for their own customers, but the bills of other than their cus- of the great tomers may take only from the bill brokers, getting thereby while the country banks almost entirely serve local commernot only the additional security of the brokers but the ad- cial interests.

Besides, the country money markets are buy from the bill-brokers the banks hope to co.iipel them to not subject to the keen competition to which the London marhold out for better rates. They also declined to tender on ket is subject. tFrom our own oorreaponaent, J London, Saturday, July 16, 1892. Some of the joint-stock banks are trying to keep up rates by refusing to take bills from the bill brokers at leas than Jg per cent. The joint-stock banks, of course, discount directly Some of the railway dividends already declared are better than had been expected, while others are very disappointing. The London & Brighton Company, which is chiefiy a passenger line serving important seaside towns like Brighton, declares a dividend for the first half of the year at the rate of 3M per cent twelve months ago the dividend was only 3}4 per cent. The Metropolitan Company, which is a purely London underground line, maintains the same rate of dividend, S}4 per cent, but it gives a bonus of 3^ per cent upon the Surplus Land stock. The London & Tilbury Company, which runs parallel with the Thames to the docks at Tilbury and some distance farther on, declares a dividend at the rate of 2J^ per cent, against 2 per cent twelve months ago and the Manchester Sheffield & Lincolnshire Company declares a dividend at the rate of J^ per cent, the same as a year ago. Both the gross and the nee receipts of this company increased handsomely during the six months but there was a corresponding increase in the fixed charges. On the other hand, the South Eastern Company, which is likewise a passenger line, though it has a good deal of goods traffic coming from France, declares a dividend at the rate of 1^ per cent, [against 2]4 twelve months ago, and the Great Eastern company, whose traffic is very mixed, declares a per cent, against IJ^ per cent dividend at the rate of only twelve months ago. The latter dividend was so much worse than had been expected that the general market gave way. The rates for money have been as follows: Thursday for the million and-a-half sterling of Treasury bills offered, and consequently the Government had to pay very nearly % per cent for its 3 months' bills and 2}4 per cent for But the efforts of the joint-stock banks its 12 months' bills. are not likely to succeed for any length of time. There is too much unemployed money and too little demand for it, and in the early future there is no prospect of muoh incrtase in the demand. The Stock Exchange settlement this week hardly affected rates at all, and the general elections have not with- drawn as much coin for the Provinces as was generally ; ex- pected. The price of silver has been oscillating during the week about 89S^d. per ounce. The general belief here is that there must be a further fall. Trade in India, the Straits Settlements and China, especially in China, is very bad. Tbe demand, therefore, for the East is exceptionally small. For the Continent there is no demand, and the impression is growing that the American purchases must cease before very long. All this keeps alive apprehension respecting; the Eastern banks. They have suffered heavy losses from the fluctuations in silver during the past two years, from the depression in the Eastern trade and "from frauds; and if there is a further fall in silver, people ask, what will the ; conse- % quences be ? The general elections have deepened the stagnation upon the Stock Exchange that has been growing ever since the beginning of the year. It is now certain that Mr. Gladstone will have a fair working majority, and as the city is very conservative, it is greatly disappointed. Besides there is doubt whether at his great age Mr. Gladstone can bear the labor of 1 Government and steering the Home Rule Bill through the House of Commons. If he hould break down, there may have to be another dissolution controlling the affairs of the 17 i •• at i J«lT 1 t " 8 t " 16 t at Buenos Ayres, after falling sharply to about 206 per cent, rose at the beginning of this week to 983 per cent, and though it has again fallen to 229 per cent, liave I ' 1 M 1 it IH&iiH m<S)iH m»8 IM® i«a2 - IM* - 1>4®2 - 1",^- \H»2 Call.

Each holder of 100 shares of the present stock will receive 120 shares in the new company, thus taking $24,000,000 of the new capital. It is also proposed to permit present stockholders to subscribe to 10 per cent of their present holdings in new stock at par, which will put $3,000,000 of money in the company's treasury. The remaiuing $4,000,000 stock is 10 be held for future use in developing the property. Mr. Thomas F. Ryan, Treasurer of the Traction Company, said in reply to a question as to whether there was a reorganization in part: "Yes. It is the intention of the company to reorganize under the laws of the State of New York. The legislative pjlicy of this State has become more liberal, and there is no necessity now for New York capital desiring to invest in any enterprise to go outside of the State. » » » » "The persons interested in the Traction Company have been considering organizing a New York corporation of sufficient capital to purchase the stock of the Metropolitan Traction Company, wbich is organized under the laws of the State of New Jersey. They will be obliged to pay quite an amount of taxation annually to the New York treasury in excess of that required under the laws of New Jersey. It will probably amount the first year to $50,000— more than they pay in New Jersey, but as the property is here and the business here they prefer to do it notwithstanding. "The stock of the Metropolitan Traction Company of New Jersey is selling at about $140 per share, and is liable to an assessment of $40 per share. The New York Company will buy the stock at about 120, and issue the stock of the New York corporation for it, which will be paid-up stock, andgi\« the privilege on $2,000,000 stock at par." He also said that there was no truth in the report that the Traction Company is trying to purchase control of the Elevated roads of New York. —Attention is called to the offer of Messrs.

The probable adjournment of Congress at an early day and the defeat lately considered almost certain of those particular measiu-es which had threatened business, such as the Silver Coinage bill and the Anti-Option biU, have served to give more confidence in the market. Tlie high temi)eratiu-e throughout the country has generally been good for com, and on Thiu«day when copious rains were reported tliroughout Kan-sas, Nebraska, Iowa, &c.. tlie price of com weakened in Chicago, and their operators became bullish on Atchi.son and other granger stocks owing to tlie better freight prospects. For a time the so-called industrial stocks held first place as active specialties in the market, and there is evidently a re%'ival of confidence in the possible value of these stocks, although the information the public receives in regard to them is only a degree better than when they were trusts, when dealings in them were understood to be almost in the nature of blind pools. The outward movement of gold to-morrow of about f4,000,000 is somewhat disappointing, but last year the gold exports did not cease till the latter part of July, and the present large shipments did not depress our market to-day. The open market rates for call loans during the week on stock and bond collaterals have ranged from 1 to 2 per cent, the average being 1}^ per cent. To-day rates on call were Commercial paper is quoted at i]4,@^% P- e. 1 to 2 per cent. The Bank of England weekly statement on Thursday sliowed an increase in bullion of £4,000, and the percentage of reserve to liabilities was 44'56, against 44'72 last week; the discount rate remains unchanged at 2 per cent. The Bank of France shows an increase of 8,471,000 francs in gold and 2,038,000 in silver. The New York Clearing-House banks in their statement of July 23 showed an increase in the reserve held of $2,903,900 and a surplus over the required reserve of $23,063,800, against 120,207,150 the previous week.

The stock market has shown some animation for the dull season, and in certain lines there has been quite a notable activity. The industrials as a class have come tolhe front and have taken a large share of the whole stock transactions. There may be no better — reason for this at tbe moment than the general facta near adjournment that Congress is and the fear of unfavorable legislation will be removed for the time and, secondly, the more substantial basis that being, the earnings of several of these corporations are reported to have been very good for the first half of the current year. It is also evident that the proceedings at law against trusts and combinations, alleged to create monopolies in their several branches of trade, have not thus far amounted to much, while it is equally true that the legislation against railroads has amounted to a great deal, and has been prejudicial in some cases to their making fair earnings. American Cotton Oil was prominent for large dealings and the common advanced to 43%, closing at 43J^; there was good buying, and some of this was attributed to insiders who have been interested in the company since its reorganization. The dealings in Amer. Sugar were very large and fluctuations quite irregular, the common selling on Thursday from 105J^ National Lead to 103J^ and then up to 107 J ^ near the close. stock was also active at higher prices, selling up to 38)^ on reports of good earnings. Those who have access to the books of the "industrial" companies are presumably among the largest operators, as only tlie H. B. Claflin Co. has published any semi-annual statement, and the public is therefore not informed what these companies are earning the present year. Among the railroad stocks Atcliiaon has been notably strong on the good crop reports from Kansas, the other grangers of the Far West being also strengthened by the crop situation. Northern Pacific stocks are stronger since the extension of the company's floating debt for a year. The Gould stocks have been more active, Missouri Pacific closing at 60 Jg, Wabash pref. at 281^, and Western Union Telegraph, after pretty large buying, at 97 Jg. The coal stocks as a class have been rather quiet, and no further advance in anthracite for August wasmaJe; but Lackawannii stock jiim()ed uo to 15978 at the close on Thursday and to-d:iy sold at 160. Minneapolis & St. Louis rose quickly to 17'^ and tlie preferred to 3y>4 on the good report of earnings for the past year and the hope that the litigation will soon reach sjme conclusion. .

As you are aware the current months is the interval of the lightest earnings of the company, they being estimated at not over $4,300,000, against $5,45.5,883 gross earnings enjoyed by the company during the six months ending February 1st, 1892. At the same time this period is best adapted for work upon the line in making necessary renewals and replacements. The best interests of the cocnpany require such expenditure in these directions as will improve permanently the condition and efficiency of the railway with reference to the period when the interest upon the second mortgage will become obligatory, and so as to establish its ability to operate its road at a percentage of expenditure which will leave sufficient to insure payment of all its obligations, even though six temporary interruptions should occur in the existing prosperity of the region where the line is situated. Such a policy it is believed will commend itself to ail proprietors of the securities of the company who are interested in its permanent welfare." 891, 900, 901, 910, 951, 976. — Chicago & Northern Paciflc— A map showing the Chicago New England Terminal.

HiU, Fontaine on July 28 their report on cotton tor July, summarizing it as follows Co., Mempliis, published in the Memphis District : The weather during the month has been unfavorable for cotton, and lor the season up to this period 326 out of the total of 340 reit much less favorable than last year. Excessive rains during the entire month of Juno and the first half of JtUy. plies report fell The all lesult is shown in the backwarduess of the crops. Only twelve report the season earlier than last year. \vhile3'2t report it later and four the same, and au average otthe replies makes the season fully fifteen days later. The continuous rains have also materially reduced the acreage, as was given lu our May report. In all the four States much of the bottom lands that were planted in cotton have been overflowed, which necessitated their abandonment. This is partly true of the condition of the affairs as reported from Arkansas and Mississippi, wliieii States seem to have suffered most. The present condition of the cotton crop is anythiug but pro aising. Plauters have been unable to work and the result Is that a very large percentage of fields are foul with grass and 312 of the total report crops in not near so good condition as last year. Owing to the backwardness of the season and the very unfavorable weather, the pl.ant is not forming, blooming and boiling well. Talcing the response-s as a whole, prospects for cotton within the district were never less promising at tlils period of the year, and the yield, even under the most favorable conditions, from this time forth must ueoes-'arily be largely decreased from what was reasonably anticipated in the early part of the season. Corn has suffered, but not to the same ext*nt as coitou, but the increased acreage that was devoted to this cereal at the expense of cotton will comp,^usate in a measure for the damage sustained on account of the unfavorable weather. East India Crop. -The following is from Comber & Co.'s cotton report, dated June 23: Messrs. Lyon, From the crop accounts to hand to-day we see that sowing has commenced in the majority of the cotton districts, but generally speaking more rain is recjuired before sowing oparatlons can all he completed. Though a fortnight ago the southwest monsoon was blowing sti- ngy but 300 miles out at sea, the current has been very weak all along the ooast, and what rain we had has been unaccompanied with the usual strong breeze which carries the moisture into the interior. Locally, rain kas fallen nearly every day, aggregating 5'3 to 6^ inches, a little short ot the average, but up country it has been very partial, In this presidency inKatfhiawar about IHi to 1% Incheshave been regiatereds In Guzerat fully 5 inches; in Khandeish about in the Deocan about Sholapore, 5>a inches;, and in the 8. Mahratta country, about 2 inobe* generally, up to or in excess of the average fall to date. In tlie Ber»r« but little rain has fallen in the fortnight, and more Is urgently wanted for the germination of the seed which has been sown. In the central provinces it is the same. In the Punjab scarcely any has been registered, but lu the N. W. provinces and parts of Central India there has been a fair supply. In Rajputana very Uttle so far. On the other hand, during the past few days, a good deal has fallen In parts of Madras, especially in the central and Western districts and In the extreme south; aUo a little in the Nizam's dominions. m; Egyptian Cotton Crop.— The following remme of reports on the cotton crop in Egypt was issued by the Alexandria General Produce Association, under date of June 80: We have at last had during the whole of the month very hot weather, and the cotton plants have profited well by it, especially in the southern provinces, where ihoy liave regained the imckwardiiess noted in previous resumet, and now jiresont an appearance iiluu)st as vigorous as that t)f last year at the same period. I'he effect of favorable ternperatiii e has beeu rather less apparent in tlm northern portion of Lower Egypt. Nevertheless the fields are in good condition, though not so . .

The water up to the present, with the exneption of I lie Fayouiu, where there are Bome oomplaiuta, has happily b.en BUfBclent in spite of the low lerel of the Nile. As usual, the cotton Worin» have made their appearance lu June. They are r«pi)rted from nearly a 1 pans of Lower Egypt. They kave, hawever, been dwtroyed by the heat, and also bv the prrcautlnn taken by many ouUlvators of piokiSK off the leaves bearing the eggs and caterpillars.

Business in staple domestics h.is been on a decidedly reduced scale this week from tlie cause referred to above, and sales of both brown sheetings and bleachid shirtings have been quite moderate. The export demand for sheetings and drills is still slow for China and the Bast, but for South American countries engagements have been up to the late average. Prices are steady to firm for both brown and bleached goods. Wide sheetings have been la steady movement in completion of previous purchases, as have cotton flannels, while the movement in colored cottons of all descriptions has partaken largely of a similar character. Kid fla« ished cambrics have now reached 4^c. for 64 squares and at this price the demand has slackened considerably. New prints have been in moderate demand at first ban Is, and not selling so freely with jobbers as expected; medium to low grades are in best request, and there is a noticeable demand for old work in dark colors at low prices. Oinghams are quiet throughout. Print cloths are without further change, with few sellers, at 33>^c. for 64x6^ this aide of January, although for delivery up to July next year 3 7-16c. has been accepted. The Fall River weavers have decided to put in a claim for aa advance in wages and there is much curiosity to see how it will be met by manufacturers. Fn. Rye was dull, weak and lower.

Although the amount of business transacted in this department compares favorably with the results in cotton goods, it has not come up to the sales of last week by a considerable quantity. The falling off has been most noticeable in light-weight woolens and worsteds for men's wear, the duplicating demand for heavy weights continuing on a free scale. Available stocks of tbe latter are now so thoroughly cleaned up that agents are in a very independent position, and in many instances will accept orders only at an advance in price. This applies to both pure wool and cotton-warp goods as well as to satinets and union cassimeres. Overcoatings are in a good position also, and the leading makes of cloakings are well sold ahead. Flannels and blankets have ruled quiet, and but little new business has been transacted in woolen and worsted dress goods. Foreign Dry Goods.— The budding activity of last week has been checked by the hot weather, and this week's business has been of moderate extent only. Importers and agents have, however, made good deliveries out of current arrivals, and a considerable quantity of dregs goods, silks, ribbons, &c. have gone forward on account of importation order*.

Southern makes of brown sheetings are the most abundant thing in the market just now, but even these are steady in price, other descriptions ruling firm. The jobbing trade has been decidedly elack on the spot all the week, and as the hot weather influence has been at work in other markets besides New York, orders by mail have not come up to expectations. A good business is expected with more temperate weather, and the general outlook for the fall trade is believed to be improving wherever any change is 2; all.

ESSEX COUNTY rNEW JERSEYJ VALUATION AND TAX RATE—NEWARK, ORANGE, ETC. The Assessors of the County of Essex, Now Jersey, have been in session this week equalizing valuations and consequently fixing the tax rates. It seems that there has been a contest between the townships of Essex during past years in this matter of equalization. We presume, however, that it has been a difference not very unlike the differences which exist in all counties. It is generally the aim of each township to make its neighbor carry as much of the burden as possible, and usually it is easy to put through a combination which makes the richest the scapegoat. This time it appears that Newark, with the help of Orange, has been able to reverse the usual order of things, and the other townships were saddled with the extra load. Newark's totals of valuation as now settled by this equalisation will for 1892 be $97,665,790 on real estate, and |25,984,764 on personal property less $1,741,386 sworn off, making the On this total it is reported that the tax rate for the year will be $18-70 per $1,000, against $18-30 per $1,000 for 1891 and 1890, this year's tax being made total $121,889,268. up by a local tax of say $12 Newark's $1,000. follows.
