habit of stopping at certain well known points outside the harbor for
the express purpose' of taking on board emigrants who join the ship from small sailing boats. The government tried to stop this practice by inflicting heavy punishment on "careless" officials who permitted intending emigrants to slip through their fingers in this manner, and it also punished many other people who used to make a very good living by assisting army deserters out of the country. As a last resort the
authorities seized upon thi plan of
arresting the nearest relatives of de

The only result has been that in

families have been leaving the country; greatly to the profit of the shipping companies, first among which is the Austrian Lloyd.
