MR. CLAUDE HAY

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Board of Trade if he will state the number of alien immigrants who have come by steerage to the United Kingdom during the last ten years by each of the British steamship lines from the ports of Hamburg, Bremen, Libau, Rotterdam, Antwerp, the Danube ports, Fiume, and the Italian ports, and the fares charged from each of such ports on each of such lines in each of the years ending December, 1895, to December, 1904?

THE SECRETARY TO THE BOARD OF TRADE (Mr. BONAR LAW, Glasgow, Blackfriars)

I regret that I am not in a position to give this information.
