Health Officer Sparkling said yesterday
that there was no truth in the statements

published few days ago in Tacoma dis
patches, that the Seattle authorities are
sending their INDECENT sick to Tacoma. He
continued:
The article states that thirty patients were
treated at the city and county hospitals in Ia
coma, while in Seattle eight were treated in q
similar institute Whether the word institute
was intended to refer only TO the city patients,
or TO the county patients, or both Is hard 70 say
but the hospital service for the city OF Seattle
in December, 1891, was a. follows: patients adj
mitted during month, nine; numbe Ter remaining
from November, four; thus making q total of
thirteen. The number of caEes treated by the
county is q different matter, yet / know that
there were fifty-two persons at the county farm
and several more county cases in the hos pitals
Ii ID q fact that Seattle Is the point to which
the majority of those who are sick or afflicted
come for treatment from all points along the
Sound. Wa investigate the case of every person

its hands than il would care TO support II Ia
come accepts Migrants who are driven from Sc
attic by the police, it is unjust to say that the
authorities are unloading their INDECENT sick
upon that city.
DR.. Sparkling concluded by saying that
on several occasions men had applied for
aid and, on being cues toned, said mat
they came from Tacoma and had been
sent 10 Seattle by the authorities.

LOCK NATIONS DOOR.
New Laws Needed to Keep Out
Undesirable Foreigners.
LATE STATUTE UNSATISFACTORY
Con. Nettleton Says System Should Be
Enforced to Investigate Before They
Leave for tho United States.

WASHINGTON CRY. Jan. 31.-ISpecial.l-
It is an open question now whether the
Democratic do-nothing congress will take
any action in regard to restrictive immi-
grafton laws. Before the Fifty-second con-
gress convened it was believed
that new immigration law
would be drafted and passed. General
Nettleton, assistant secretary Of the
treasury, believed that such law would
be passed at this session. Mr.. Nettleton
has had charge of the immigration work
for the treasury department under the
law that was passed at the last session.
He has devoted so much of
his time to immigration matters
during the past year that be has
the subject as well in hand as any man in
this country. He has several times indi-
Gated that the law passed last session was
not entirely satisfactory and ought to be
very materially changed The present
law does not prevent the landing of
undesirable immigrants. and it was Gen.
eral Nettleton's idea that a bill could be
drafted which would check this Influx of
anarchists, ex-conyicts and men of like
ilk. He believes that the present statute,
no matter how efficient the administration
he has in view. at present it is the old
story of locking the stable door after the
horse has gone. No inspection of
immigrants carried on solely at
the port of arrival can de-
tect more than triiiing percentage of
the cases which 1t is most important to
discover and prevent from landing. Until
human nature is changed criminals,
thieves, dead beats, plausible but danger
Gus lunatics and illegally assisted aliens
VIII not as a rule reveal their real char
acter, and render certain their own return
across the seas by truthfully answering the
test questions to emigrant inspectors on
this side. The work of winnowing
immigrants, General Nettleton saws
can only be done effectually before
they set foot aboard ship at the
European ports. He believes a system
can be successfully applied to prevent
their debarkation on the other side. 1t is
simply question of expense and applied
brains. AS to expense, the immigration
service is and can easily con-
tinue to be self-sustaining. Be-
sides any expenditure is justified
which is necessary to erect and maintain
an effective dyke against this deluge of
squalor and crime. If the ideas of General
Nettleton has conceived were drafted into
restrictive immigration law, it would be
easy to check the landing of these
undesirable foreigners. 1t is pos
sible that this congress will do
something for the immigration question,
but decided action is by no means certain
When asked about the matter today Gen.
eral Nettleton said he had no information
on this point to make public, but that
there might be developments during the
next few weeks.

before all the world. The veteran, now
on the army retired list, is living quietly
in New Jersey, taking but little interest in
public affairs During the time that Gen.
erai Porter was lighting for his rehabiIi-
tation. his political friends in this city
made him q police commissioner, which
Office he filed with credit TO himself.
One thing / particularly noted at the
dinner above referred TO. and that was the
enthus asm excited by every mention Of
General Grants name. Every speaker
paid tribute 70 his memory. And every
tribute was received with hearty cheers.
1t was evident TO my mind that in the
memory OF the Southerners who felt the
keen edge of war the names of Lee and
Grant will live side by side.

The Gay Season.
Nan Xnrx Latter

It is universally conceded that New
York never has seen gayer season than
this, when SO much in the way of public
festivity was going on. or coming of, as
the conventional phrase puts it. We man.
aged 10 squeeze three of the biggest balls
into one week. OF these three the Cooks
ball appealed most directly to the public
TASTE" particularly as it was pre-
ceded by an afternoon display OF
culinary art equai probably to anything
that, in these degenerate days in the
French capital. could be shown IN Paris.
/ speak of degenerate days over there as
compared with the days OF Incompatible
cookery in Paris, say ten or more years
ago. The culinary scepter is now held IN
this city-we have imported the most
famous French cooks, and at least five OF
our leading restaurants are better than
Bignon's or any other in Paris. The ball
advertised as the ''Great Cooks Ball.
leaves in doubt whether the great" APP
plies TO the cooks or the ball, but both
were worthy of it. The Old Guards ball
in the Metropolitan opera-house Is always
an immense affair, and this year, as usual,
1t attracted almost an army of military
men from other cities. For a day or two
all the principal hotels, particularly IN
the vicinity of the opera-house, were
full of them. But the ball of the week, If
not of the season, at least by the estimate
of those who assisted" in the fuction, was
McAilister's so-caIled New Years Bail"
though given when January was more than
half over. The immense impudence of
this affair fairly challenged admiration.
McAillster announced in his circular that
''once in two years" or So II was safe to as
semble in an affair of this sort, 1.-The best
elements of general society" Accordingly,
representatives at least of the ''best ele-
ments" were graciously permitted to be
present, and for one night only were
allowed to assemble in the same room
with the sons wives and daughters
OF the respectable old thinkers, fur
riers, tobacco peddlers, liquor dealers,
salt nsh sellers and other honest hard
working old buffers, who made the money
upon which the 400 now spread and swell.
The very wording of the invitation was in
sulting, but some of those who accepted
and paid for these invitations would put
up with great deal for the chance of be-
ing permitted, even 'for one night only"
to mingle with the so-calied smart set."
