UNDEsIRABlts IMMlGKANTs.
Foreign Paupers, Criminals and
LunatiCS Invade America.

BALTIMORE, May l6.-The morning
hours of the national conference of
Charities and Corrections were chiefly
taken up by the reading of papers on
"Immigration, and it is evident that
the conference thinks that the day has
come when the law of self-preservation
should be invoked. and the country
protected against the hOrdcs OF un-
desirable aliens that have been
invading this country of recent
years. DR.. Charles s. Hoyt, of New
YORK, read the first paper. II stated
that laws have been enacted at various
times by congress to cheek the immi-.
grafton Of pauperS, lunatics, criminals
ahd other undesirable aliens, but they
are not as effective as they should be.
Recently the government has taken
charge of the emigrant depot in New
York and it is TO be hoped that this
same system will soon prevail at Phiia-,
delphia, Boston and elsewhere. Mr..
Cadwallader Biddle. of Philadelphia,
said: mo complaint is heard about
Philadelphia. because the politicians
there have not had full control of the
immigrant depot at that port and as q
consequence, the immigration laws have
proved effective" E. A. Sawyer. of New
York, stated that one of th,. most potent
influences in bringing poor immigrants
to this country is the activity of steam
ship companies and their agents. One
company has $500 agents in Europe and
3,400 in this country. He would suggest
that the recommendations adopted by
the charity organizations society OF New
York OH this question be adopted. The
report of the committee on charity Or
gaEizatioD was read by n. S. RoSenau of
Buffalo. There are seventy-eight char
ity organizations societies in the United
States. The cities in which they are
located have an aggregate population
of l1.050,0G0. They reported that re-
lief was not deserved or was unneces-
sary in 5,S2l eases. and that they ex-
posed or suppressed 1850 frauds, while
through their work l.SU7 families were
made independent OF relief Or assist
ance of any kind. 1t cost S23.32 each to
ferret out the frauds and to prevent the
unworthy from obtaining assistance.s
On the same basis it cost 1921 each to,
make the 1897 families self-supporting.
William Grey, of England. addressed
the meeting. This evening a paper.

CONFUSION IN The HOUSE.
Tariff Discussion Merges Into a
Political Debate.

WASHINGTON, May 16. = Petitions
were presented in the house to-day

mills in Philadelphia. urging the pas
sage Of the Mckinley bill. Also one
from Collins Brother & Co., against a
duty on sugar OF milk. Referred. Tie
senate bill was passed authorizing the
registration of census mail matter.
The house then went into committee of
the whole on the tariff bill. A long de-
bate ensued, principally devoted to
consideration of the subject of farm
mortgages. The discussion occasionally
drifted into politics and the house was
kept in confusion-entirely good
humOred, but SO great as to elicit from
the chair the remark that the recent
presence of the circus in town must have
had detrimental effect upon members.
Mr.. Mcmillan addressed himself to
the bill antagoniZing an amendment Of
fered by Mr.. Mckinley, providing that
on manufactures of wool and wOrSted
valued at not more than 80 cents
pound the duty per pound shall be
three times the duty imposed on pound
of unwashed wool of the irst-class, and
in addition thereto 40 per cent ad val
orem. The amendment was agreed to.
Ar. Mckinley offered an amendment
fixing the duty on oriental and Berlin
rugs at 6U cents per square
yard, and 40 per cent ad
valorem. Mr.. Mansur, of Missouri,
secured the floor and aroused the indig-
nation of the Iowa Republicans by the
statement that they had been repudi
ated by their people. The house was
in an uproar for few minutes. The
speaker said the gentleman had been
taking advantage of the chairs good
nature to insult the house and to lower
his own standing in his own estimation.
Mr.. Mansur replied that NAV be the
opinion of the chair, but it will not be
INDUCED ia outside of this chamber.
Pending vote. the committee rose,
and at o'clock the house took recess
until s o'clock, the evening session to be
for the consideration of private pension
bills.
The house at It's evening session (Mr.
Perkins, of Kansas, in the chair passed
seventy-0ne private pension bills. the
only incident of the evening was the
applause which followed the announce
ment by Mr.. Caruth, of Kentucky, that
his colleague. Mr.. Carlisle, had been
selected by acclamatlOn as the successor
of the late Senator Beck. The applause
was participated by members on both
sides of the house. Adjourned at 1880

Of Georgia. stated that the impression
had gone abroad that the resolution on

the opinion had gained ground that the

record AS opposed to Worldliness.
He urged that the resolution be
taken from the table and considered.
He was informed that the resolution
had passed the conference. but that a
motion to have it placed in the book OF

resolution was passed that committee

the state is composed to great extent
of a foreign element, nearly all Ger
mans, Norwegians and Russians being
Republicans. This powerful faction is
deserting that party in whole p!atoonS
on account of the position taken by that
party on tile prohibition question. In
tlIis section there are many gentlemen
of influence, hitherto Republi-
can. who have renOunced their
allegiance to that party and taken
up with vigor the cause OF
Democracy. There is also strong ele-
ment that voted for prohibition because
it seemed to be proper, that now sees
that there can be no such a thing as
prohibition IN the face of the recent de-
cisi0n of the supreme court, who now
real ize that their only hope for remov-
ing the farce Is through the Democratic
party. They see almost daily large in
voices of liquor being taken from the
cars ana turned over to the importers IN
the original packages by agents, and
realize that the license money badly
needed in every city and county is
sacrificed, while the consumption of
liquor is not abated In the least. Any
sane man fully recognized the
fact that prohibition under these
circumstances can be nothing but a
farce. The farmers are also beginning to
understand that they are getting de-
cidedly the worst of it on the tariff ques-
ton. They are beginning to realize
that there is no good to them in a tariff
which increases enormously the cCSt OF
all the necessities OF the farm. while all
