A THEY MUST I; BARRED OUT The Treasury Dcpm urn-iii. Seriously Con- sidering the Best Means of infecting That Desirable End—Aid u! the Next Congress to Be Inv-plced. WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.——Thc treasury department is paying very serious anon- tion to the immigration question, and bag accomplished some reform, though efforts to keep paupers and criminals from land- in g on our shores have been far from a complete success. It is said at the department that the ab- rogation of the contracts with the state boards of immigration commissioners, and the placing of the responsibility for the enforcement of the law in the hands of federal officials, has resulted in keeping out many thousand immigrants who would have been permitted to land under the old system. ~There still are, however, many gaps in the law through which ob~ jectionable immigrants can get into the country in spite of the greatest diligence. The new law has been an improvement over the old, and the evidence of a serious intention on the part of the United States to enforce it has, it is said at the depart— ment, led steamship companies to exer- cise more care not to take passengers in foreign countries whom they cannot land when they reach here. Reports from abroad state that thousands of persons of a class which formerly madeup a large proportion of the steerage passenger trans‘ portation are now refused passage on some of the lines. A Delicate Question. It is recognized by the department that this question of immigration is one which demands attention, and at the same time one which must be handled with consider- able delicacy. The report of the commis- sion which was sent abroad is awaited with interest, but from indications it is feared that the result of its work will not be entirely satisfactory, largely, doubt- less becausc it is next to impossible for half a. dozen men to study the whole social system of Europe so as to come to an un- derstanding in three or four months of the condition of the lower classes who furnish the immigrants whOm we seek to guard against. But whatever the work of the foreign commission amounts to, there will be an effort made to get additional legislation this coming winter which will make more eifective work of the department. There are now some four or five hundred agents of the government working in one way or another as guardians of our ports. An efiort is being made to establish an effec- tive guard over the extensive boundary between this country and Canada, which, has been long practically unprotected. They Get in in Spite of Us. During this month an agent away up in North Dakota has turned back eleven un- desirable immigrants who went to that point to steal into the country. That serves only as an evidence of increasing activity, for the guarding of the boundary is still very imperfect. The most effective service, and almost the only one that is eifective, is that at the ports of New York and Philadelphia, that Of Philadelphia being the easier and, therefore, the best. In spite of the best efforts of the depart? ment to restrict it, thousands of immi- rants are landed who clearly come within he prohibition of the law, and this is ac- complished chiefly through the system of taking bonds that they will not become a charge upon public charity. Some time ago the attorney general ren: dered an opinion that though immigrants might belong to one of the prohibited classes, they might be permitted to land it they could furnish the necessary bonds. nder this construction of the law it has been very easy for paupers to land, as bonds are easily obtained, presumably for a small consideration, which those assist 'ing the immigration are ready to , pay, as the government never has, and, it is well understood, never will, claim the for- feiture of any of these bonds, which are, for the most part, absolutely without value. ' 3? An 13in That Defeats the Law. It is understood that quite athriving business is done by parties going on the bonds of immigrants, and it seems that ‘great wealth is not necessary for the busi- hess. A case has been discovered in Balti- ' ore where a man who has but $3,000 to ES name is on the bonds of immigrants to the amount of $20,000. As long as this sys- gem of taking bonds for immigrants who elong to the prohibited classes is contin- ued, it will be impossible to effect the pur- pose of the law. The matter will be called to the atten‘ tion of congress when the session begins, and if the abolition of the system is ac- omplished it is believed that it will result in a very great reduction of the number of undesirable immigrants. A more serious question will be that of the prevention of the immigration of Chinese from Canada, who come, not as subjects of his celestial excellency the em- pe_ror of China, but as British subjects. It is believed that the decision of the court in which a test case was tried, de- claring that Chines coming from Canada cannot be sent has to China, cannot be pverthrown, as it is obvious that, as our jurisdiction does not extend beyénd our own boundary lines, we cannot compel the Chinaman to go any place he does not want to after he is beyond the boundary. C nsiderable trouble is anticipated out of th 5 question. Women as Meat Inspectors. WASHINGTON, S pt. 26.—Secretary Rusk, who is establishing meat inspection sta— tions at South Omaha, Kansas City, Mil- waukee, Boston, Chicago and other cities, says that it has been found by experts that women are better adapted to the pre- paratory work of meat inspection than men. At Chicago sixteen men and the same number of women were tried at this work, and the result was ’largely in favor of the latter. The work is such as women can perform, being light and clean, and re uiring care and skill and deftness, ualities which women show in abun-v afice. Embczzled for Eighteen Years. PITTSBURG, Sept. 26.-—David Hastings, erg-clerk of markets in Allegheny, was ar- rehted and held in $5,000 bail for embez- zling.
