Spaniards form an overwhelming majority of all immigrants, the number arriving during the five years being nearly 83 per cent of the total number. Next in rank are immigrants from the United States, although they formed less than 6 per cent of the total number. There were more immigrants from the United States, however, than from Central and South America and the other West Indies combined. Only 8,197 immigrants other than Spaniards have come from Europe, and nearly one-half of these came from Great Britain.
