Statistics of the trans-Atlantic passenger travel, Eiat and West, din ing the vear ended on Tuesday, diow the enormous total of 2,957, 888, as many persons as the com bined population of St. Louis, BftStOti, Baltimore, Cleveland, Buf falo, Sun Francisco and Cincinatti. During the year !72, 040 more persons crossed the ocean between Europe and America than during the year 1!06 and 1 541,151 more than in the year 1H04. Coming westward duriug the year wore 1,01)9,340 persons, 200, 000 more than the combined East and West travel in 1904. During 1907, 1,867,898 persons went from America to Europe. During the year the number of foreigners resident in the United States was not increased as much as curing the year 1906, although 160,636 more arrived from abroad. This was olfset by the fact that 242,505 more steerage passengers, that is to say returning emigrants, went back to Europe during 11107 than during l!06. This unusual exodus to Europe is to be accounted for by the de creased demand for labor here du ring the last few months. Aasoon as industrial conditions improve we may expect many of those who have gone buck to the old country to come again bringing thousands of others with them.
