Chairmlan. gentlemen have said that this discussion is not germane to the bill. I think it is. and that when this $250.000. shall have been appropriated for this establishment .gentlemnen will be loath to vote for those restrictions that wil take away all possibility for the use of that investment. which I hope shortly may come. I am willing that there shall be an establishmlent on tile Pacific coast. one on the North Atlantic. at New York. oiie at some place on the South Atlantic. or on the Gulf. and one on the Pacific coast. where immigrants may be received. but I do not want to encourage their coming by increasing the facilities for their reception here. [Loud applause.] I reserve the balance of my time.
