N£\v YORK, Oct. 19.—“ The United States
wrfl mnt declines to receive you as a
c;t;ißti. even in intent.”
•■lVnat must I do !"
Return to your native land. You can
remain on these shores.”
This conversation occurs, on an average,
(mce a day, at the big stone portals of
Castle Garden. It is rendered into every
language under the sun and differs in
tongue almost as often as uttered. It is al
ways addressed to an undesirable immi
grant The immigrants who are not per -
mittei to land would, in a year, make a
good sized regiment.
“Through that gateway has passed more
than one-tenth of the population of the
1/nited States,” said an official yesterday,
as be pointed to the low, not very broad
arched door leading from the docks to the
inside of the sombre old barracks that once
echoed with the throbbing strains of the
Swedish nightingale, Jenny Lind. The
gateway is an old sallyport of the fort and
affords the only means of access from the
water to the garden. On the docks just
without the walls the immigrants are
landed, and every newcomer who has
stopped for the first time on American soil
at New York has passed through that low,
broad gateway. Over 6,000,000 souls have
emerged from under its arrow arch to the
light of freedom; or, as the official said,
more than one-tenth of the entire popula
tion of the United States. They are now
scattered fr >m Maine to California, from
Florida to Washington Territory.
Of the vast number who have stood out
side this gate, there has been thousands who
left homes of abject poverty and even vice,
and who, seeing the shores of liberty for
the first time, felt better impulses and new
strength, but who were downcast and
utterly disheartened by being refused ad
mission in the solemn words quoted above.
It has been a sad and bitter-hearted pro
cession that has tramped disconsolately for
years oat of Castle Garden, back through
the gate by which it entered. They were
the immigrants who could not stay.
Unless the good were separated from the
had, comparison would be impossible and
virtue indistinguishable from vice. All the
emigrants go through a big sieve established
by law, and the same law orders that the
sieve shall be called the immigration com
mission. There are just seven holes iu this
sieve and they are all different in shape.
They are, respectively, President Ridge
way of the commission, and Messrs. IV viand,
Stephenson, Stagg, Hauselt, Rourke, and
Uhlrich, members. It is for these gentle
men to decidle whether the immigrant may
turn his face westward toward the land of
plenty, or turn his head and sadly retrace
bis steps out.through the big gateway and
on board the steamer that will land hitn
again on the shores he quitted for America’s
soil, where rest was denied him. The ma
jority of the immigrants bring some pritna
facie proof of their independence and are
readily passed by the representatives of the
commission; but, whenever there is a doubt,
the immigrant is held to appear before the
commission for their decision as to his
c tness for American citizenship.
There are three classes of undesirable
immigrants for whom the sieve naturally
bolds many terrors, and it is for these that
tbe commissioners aro mainly on the alert.
France and Italy, and even industrious and
frugal Switzerland, have not hesitated at
different times within a few years to per
mit the shipment to these shores of known
criminals in the guise of ‘desirable immi
grants.’ On one occasion it was shown that
a jail delivery in Switzerland had been
effected evidently for the purpose of getting
rid of the occupants by transferring them
to this side of the Atlantic. Poor ignorant
Italians, penniless and contract-bound to
native employers, contract laborers from
Scotland, England and Belgium, paupers
from the almshouses of many districts in
Ireland, and vagrants from” the London
slums, of whom the English police were glad
to have a riddance, were “assisted” here, in
order that they might begin life anew as
good American citizens. Besides all these,
there was the great helpless army of the
unskilled, whose fingers have never been
trained to labor and whose inclinations
were the reverse of industrious, constantly
drifting to this country uuhindered and
helping to swell the ranks of tbe criminals
in our large cities.
This is where the sieve comes in. The
emigrant makes affidavit to his name, age,
nativity, destination, friends, if any here,
money, baggage trade or whatsoever proof
he may be able to bring to demonstrate
that he is neither, a criminal or a lunatic,
nor yet likely to become a public charge
on the country iu which he may find him
self when his immediate financial resources
have been exhausted. Then he is put into
the sieye. If he gets through one or the
other of the holes—all right; but if he can
pass through none, why, then, he must
return home. As has been said, each hole
is differently shaped and the differences are
due to the individuality of the gentlemen
forming the commission. Politics aside,
are quite remarkable.
n There was a large batch of dobutful imrni
£**ol® to be decided upon a few days ago,
and I attended to see how many got through
the sieve. To fit the hole, it was necessary
that the immigrant then in the sieve should
s.riie the pet theme of the commissioner
representing that particular hole. The
neat, methodical secretary of the commis
sion, who has seen thousauds of immigrants
sent back and who has served through
tnany changes in the sieve, called out an
unpronounceable Austrian name. For an
swer , there came into the room a sturdy
•n&:i, a small, broad-browed, bright-eyed
woman, his wife, and two little children,

They succeeded and are now with friends
and the husoand at work.
“Next case ■” called President Ridge wav,
sharply.
“The next case” was a family of eight,
father, mother and six children. Thar
wanted to go to Washington territory ami
and had about sl2. Tickets were expected
from an uncle who lived there, but they
had not come. The uncle was something
tangible, and President Ridgeway, who be
lieves in facts and has a pleasant way of
looking squarely at both sides of a ques
tion, at once took the ground that time
should be given the family and the uncle
hunted up. Mr. Stephenson kicked; the
board voted him down and the family were
respited. They had struce the hole in the
sieve labeled “Ridgeway,” and subsequent
ly they got through all right.
Then chine a German woman. She was
penniless, but had a sister in New Jersey.
But the immigrant had two chil Iren and
had never been married. Xu her affidavit sue
named the two different men who
were the fathers of her children.
Her affidavit nearly closed the
sieve against her; but her nationality
stood her in good stead with the big blonde
headed Teuton, Commissioner Hauselt.
Pushing aside tbe interpreter, he questioned
the woman. Her evident helplessness and
pale face, half shadowed by bright yellow
hair, her big pleading eyes and the two
small pledges of unwise love at her side,
clasping her thin fingers in their chubby
hands, all pleaded straugly for her. Non
chalant and keen-witted Commissioner
Ulrich became interested. Commissioner
Stagg glowered benevolently over his spec
tacles, while Mr. Hauselt rolled thick sen
tences in his mather tongue at tne fright
ened woman. (Jammissiouer Rourke’s
Irish heart generous impulse

that her sister Wright j.,a|g.c,.j , 0,0f her.
Pending the motion- the New Jersey sister
was called. Her busb.uicV,. works in a
brickyard and was cognizant of the illegiti
macy of the children; but having none of
his own was wilting to adopt the two
waifs. The motion "tyas put, and after some
discussion, and upon the assurance of the
immigrant’s sister that the children would be
cared for and the’mother given work, the
throe were admittedio V
Such cases a3 thaee are numerous.
Europe seems injfcftf upon unloading her
illegitimate spawn jinqu American shores;
but their admittauoa. Js of rare occurrence.
Some of the young girls who come here,
having fatherless ettuaren in their arms,
find husbands among the many men who
write to Superintendent Simpson for wives
and who are willing to forgive oven such
sins; but most of them are returned, unless
they have friends who are ready to become
responsible for them.
So he procession goes on, many being
admitted and many sent back. The big sieve
sifts the good from the bad, and if an error
is made it is on the side of humanity and
prompted by an impulse to save from fur
ther suffering the poor wretch who tries to
leave behind him the misery and poverty
of the old world and hopes to find, if not
wealth, at least liberty in America.

SHOES OP MANY SHAPES.
How People of Various Countries
Dress Their Feet.
From the New York Star.
Many will congratulate themselves that
russet shoes have bean "called in,” and sty
lish women in New York will now begin to
consider fashion’s latest freaks in footgear
for street and indoor wear. Looking over
the stock of a prominent dealer, we find the
ever popular French kid button boot main
taining its supremacy for general wear,
and presenting itself this autumn with a
straight patent leather tip decorating the
pointed too. In fact the pointed
toe is employed in all varieties of
shoes; even the heaviest Waukeuphast,
with low broad heels, taking on this distin
guishing feature, which will be found o oc
casion great discomfort to the pedestrian.
Avery stylish shoe for dressy wear is a
lace boot which is made with patent leather
vamp and tip, Louis XV. heel, and the top
in tan or gray lisle, a material which will
be lnrgely employed in footgear for all full
dress occasions this winter, and which seems
to have completely displaced satin for such
purposes. Oxford ties promise to be in
higher favor than slippers for use with
evening costumes, and some beautiful shoes
of this description are shown in all the lead
ing stores.
A plain dress Oxford is made with French
kid, or, preferably, patent leather vamp
and a cloth upper iu black, or any color
desired, with the Louis heel, and, of course,
the pointed toe. A shoe which presents a
very elegant appearance is known as the
Western Oxford tie, and is made entirely
of black suede, with a patent leather dia
mond tip and facings. Seine shoes of this
pattern are made in delicate shades of grav
or tan, with the vamp ornamented with
straight or V-shaped braiding.
“The "Ideal” is a handsome one-strap
sandal, composed of a patent leather vamp,
and the back of suede with the strap of this
material, ornamented with bow and buckle.
Gray and tan are admissible with all cos
tumes, but a toilette has a more complete
effect if the shoes are made of suede dyed
to match the color of the goods. Shoes of
American manufacture generally follow
Parisian models. 'The French have peculiar
tastes, and consider*their productions to be
unapproachable £& material, workmanship,
and, above all, ut.style. Their wares are
largely exported (p America, and it is a
sad fact that they are sold readily for their
distressingly and very high heel,
sloping from the jJeiCtf where tne heel be
longs to the center of the foot, which inake3
them prove to their'wearers what they ap
pear to a casual dbßSryer, a refined instru
ment of torture.
In Spain the people of the upper classes
follow the prevailing fastoqns In France
in ladies’ and gaaXlemonVfoJtwear, and as
pedestrianism is,pti#3go£Jh to any re
markable extentv> > tie, aeiguat appearance
of the shoe i of ivastty mure import nice
than the comfofrS.*' lf l{ is generally conceded
that a person wearing a square-toed, broad
soled boot is au'E fglishman. or at all events
not of Castilian birth. The poor people of
the country use a sort of slipper made of
canvas, with a sole of hemprope called
“alpergatas,”and it is found to be so com
fortable that it is employed by soldiers on
the inarch in Spain. These goods are manu
factured largely in the Basque provinces,
the cost being only from 10 to 15 peletas a
dozen.
On the isthmus of Panama people of all
classes are most fastidious in the fashion of
their footgear for outdoor wear. The com
monest negro, who goes barefooted to work,
must take his holiday in the dressiest style
of I Parisian boot if be can get them large
enough, and the women who wear the most
slatternly slippers inside adopt the extreme
of fastiion when dressing for a promenade.
The French style of congress gaiter is most
largely in demand, with high heels and
narrow toes, the warm climate and lazy
nature of the people causing them to reject
the lace or button shoe as requiring too
much exertion to adjust.
In Mexico a largo proportion of the
population that is not of E uropean origin
do not wear shoes at all, but continue to
use the ancient Indian sandal, which is con
sidered the most economical, comfortable
and healthy for the climate. This sandal
consists of • sole of raw-hide, or woven
maguey flbr, which is strapped to the bot
tom of the foot by striugi or thongs of the
same material, and it is so highly esteemed
that the Mexican army, which is equipped
without regard to expense, continue to use
this ancient foot covering in preference to
any other kind of boot or shoe.
Hboeiuaking in Yucatan is a brief and
primitive operation, the unshod individ
ual procures a piece of bids or sole leather,
and, placing bis feet thereon, follows tb

confines it in place and proceeds on his way
in a spirit of content. But the feminine
nativos of the country take great delight
on fete days in having their stockingless
feet thrust into a pair of pale blue high
heeled shoes of French make.
The warm and agreeable climate of the
Madeira inlands permits the foot covering
of the people to be composed of the lightest
materials. Tbe peasantry includes about
two-thirdsof the population, many of whom
go barefooted throughout the year, and a
large portion put on boots and shoes on
dress occasions oaly. This class, both male
and female, wear a puff leather boot, made
high and turned down ala cavalier at the
top, without heels; and with only one thick
ness of sole. This soft and flexible f-orgear
is well adapted to a people who must be
continually going up bill and down upon
one of the most rugged habitable islands of
the world. The buff boots of the poorer
classes mike no pretension to shape.
Toe better classes, however, proud of their
small feet, employ no material heavier
than goat or kid, and patent leather is
much worn. Lndie3 affect the extreme of
fasnion, and, as they walk very little, they
generally select low, light shoes, with very
high heels.
Every place in Turkey seems to have a
different form or style. The higher classes
wear flue shoes, similar to tli se worn in
France, which are, however, of home manu
facture, and compare favorably with tbe
best made in Europe or America; but the
common people wear cheap, ill-made shoes
called “Rountouras.” Both iu summer and
winter the Turkish officials clothe the
feet in large leather overshoes called
“galosaes,” and the use of them becomes
general during the rainy se ison.
A great industry is carried on in Austra
lia in the manufacture of leather from the
skins of animal native to the country. The
kangaroo, ws.llt.by and paddymelons, the
two latter being a smaller sDecies of kanga
roo, are largely used for foot coverings, and
so is a great variety of opossum skins, kaola,
bandicoot, dingo and platypus. The
body of the platypus resembles
that of a small otter, and is covered with a
short, grayish brown fur. After a few stiff
hairs are removed, tho fur is very soft and
will stand a great deal of bard usage. It is
made iuto caps aud rugs, as well as being
largely employed for slippers.
The shoe of the Chinese is familiar to us
from the foot covering commonly worn by
these people who dwell in our midst; but
in China the officials adopt a higher style of
boot, which is made of black silk or cloth,
with felt or leather s lies. These are made
loose in the legs to admit of carrying papers
and documents connected with the business
in which they are engaged.
The younger class iu Japan are gradually
adopting the European costume among
those who are employed in the custom or
foreign business houses, and the introduc
tion of civilized footwear among the people
generally is going on slowly, and being
gradually exchanged for the straw sandal
or wooden clog to which these people have
been accustomed for centuries.
Shoes made to order in Italy cost no more
than those ready made. Pointed toes are
in general demand by both sexes, and the
women of Palormo aro noted for a most un
graceful carriage, which is attributed to the
extravagant high heels they generally
adopt.
Indians comprise one-half of the popula
tion of Ecuador, and go about barefooted,
while the Cholos (a mixture of white and
Indian blood) wear sandals ok small rope
woven from the fiber of the cactus, secured
to the feet by strips of cloth. Sandals made
of this material are very strong and stmd
great service. Everywhere that people of
European origin find a home, shoes of
French pattern command a ready sale,
which shows how universally comfort is
sacrificed to appearance in the general
adoption of pointed toes and the heels of
