You apparently had a crowd going and nobody coming back. and you have vitiated what little statistics you are able to obtain. Mr. Speaker. in pure justice to these small steamboat lines running out of Boston do not put this law any further in force. There is nobody asking for it. Mr. Larned. Deputy Comniissioner of Immigration. told me it was impracticable. Everybody who knows anything about that knows that It is impracticable. and the only result under heaven is to drive the people from these little steamboat lines to the great railroads that cross the border and the ferries which cross from the city of Detroit. I yield back the balance of my time.
