The causes of the "diolcsale re

1. Allen laborers have s"ved up mon

barred from sending It home, and, ac
cording to bankers denllng exclusively
with them, they have an averago of
$:UNM). If we take what a dollar Is

to comprehend that the worker ex

.5. The laborer has not seen bis fnm-
lly, many have not even honrtl from
them, for d to ten years.
1. The high cost of living In America.

"The re-emlgratlim Is slow because
there Is not sulllclent shipping. There
ue only five steamers weekly avail-

ml yet 0.000 are leaving by 'them.
Should the sailing facilities linprov
mil the passport question be simpli
fied, It will grow by lenps nnd bounds."
Cannot Be Dissuaded. "
The manager of Kmll Kiss' bnnklng
house, the largest ticket agents on the
east side, said that they were discour
sing re-emlgrntlon as much as pos
sible, and explnlned to applicants tho
dllllcultles of traveling In Kurope,' tho
danger of their losing their kits and
money on the wny.
"Yet It Is Impossible to persundo
them to stay," the clerks nssert.
"There are letters from former travel
er! who say that they have been cheat
ed and robbed of their possessions,
arrived home stripped of everything,
ot you can't Induce them to stay."
"Do you discourage exebango of dol
lars as well?" I asked.
"We do, but the constant fall In tho

Ignorant people who mistrust drafts.
Now, In traveling through Europo tho

Some of tho re-emigrants travel
through five countries nnd thus lose
HO per cent of their money on forced

grnver dlfllcultles, for even tho export
