third-class and steerage-class passengers

Answer: third-class cabin immigrants that immigrate to New York City.

Explanation:

After numerous reports of corruption at the Castle Garden, the port for immigrants of New York, the federal government decided to close the port in 1890 and construct a new reception center. The location, called Ellis Island, was a little island off the New Jersey coast, started its business in 1892. But only immigrants that could not manage to buy first and second-class cabins had to visit Ellis Island, given that those who could afford were examined on board, and most of them just walked down the walkway onto the docks in lower Manhattan.
