REsTRICTING IMMIGRATION.
The Presidents Order ofseptember 20
BE RigidIy Enforced.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.-Secretary
Chas. Foster said this morning that
there is no foundation for the impress
sion apparently prevailing in certain
sections of the country that the adj
ministration has modified its policy
restricting immigration as precau-
ton against the introduction ofcholera.
He said that sanitary experts declare
that cholera win undoubtedly reap
pear in the spring and that it will be
dangerous for the federal authorities
to relax their vigilance in keeping out
Of the country all the persons or mer-
chandise at all likely to carry the
germs Of the dread contagion. The
Presidents order Of September ! es-
tablishing 20 days order quarantine
against all immigrants sailing from
foreign ports to the United States af-
ter that, date, except in special cases,
is still in full force and effect, and
Secretary Foster said he saw no pros
pect of its modification or repeal, in
view Of the possible temperance Of
cholera in Europe. Under that order
the immigrants will not be allowed to
land in the United States unless it can
be shown to the satisfaction Of the
Treasury Department that they were
booked and assembled at the port Of
departure prior to September /. Under
a recent ruling immigrants are per-
sons who come to our shores for the
purpose Of taking up a permanent
residence here, and they will be deni-
ed admission regardless Of whether
they travel IN cabin or Storage.
American citizens and tourists Of all
classes are not included in this pro-
hibition. Secretary Foster said it was
erroneous to suppose exceptions had
been made in the case Of the steamers
Etruria and City Of Chester. The
passengers on those vessels were allow
ed to land because they did not belong
to the prohibited class; that is, they
were either booked and assembled
pior to September /, or they were
tourists. As an indication that the
department does not propose to re-
open the gates to immigrants, the
Secretary said that he had ordered the
detention at Cape Charles of nearly
two thousand immigrants who had
come from Bremen pei. Weimer in
violation of the Presidents order. He
said that he regretted the hardships
imposed by his action, but he felt that
a stand must be taken in the matter
in order that there may be no room
for further misapprehension as to the
policy Of the government. He said it
was evident that all immigrants who
were booked and assembled prior to
September | had reached our shores
ere this and that these now arriving
are brought by the steamship com
panies in the hope Of. evading the reg
.ulations.

UNNATURALIZED CITIZENS.
Why Senator Chandler Will Press His Amen
mont tn the Constitution

Why Senator Chandler Will Press His Amend
ment to the Constitution.
'No person Of foreign birth. not citizen of
the United States, shall be allowed to vote for
any officer. state or national" That is the text
OF the amendment Senator Chandler wants to
have added to the Constitution OF the United
States.
II shall push that resolution most energet-
lcaily. said Senator Chandler to STAR re-
porter. 1T is one of great importance. A
large proportion OF the states permit no man
to vote unless he is a citizen of the United
States; the other states nre satisfied il the man
will only declare his intention to become a
citizen. Now it must be at once apparent to
every thinking individual that no unnatural
lzed resident should be permitted to exercise the
right Of suffrage. Their votes elect members
OF state legislature and they thus influence the
election OF United States Senators. This is all
wrong. The maker of a preliminary declara-
ton IL not obliged to follow it up he may never
40 1t and there is good reason for BELIEVING
that IN great many instances he never does.
Such condition of affairs might be tolerated
IN new territory and for short time. but no
ment."
Paschars Annotative Constitution saws that
aliens are permitted to vote after declaring
their intentions to become citizens in the fol-
lowing States: Indiana, Kansas, Michigan.
Minnesota, Missouri Nebraska, Oregon, South
Carolina, Wisconsin. Montana, Idaho, North
Dakota and South Dakota.
1t Is an interesting fact that Senator Chand-
!er amendment was taken from the constitu-
ton OF the 'confederate" states; 1t does not

THE DISTRICT WATER SUPPLY.
Senator Hansbrough Gives His Opinion Tha,

Senator Hansbrough Gives His Opinion THAI
1t Needs Purifying.
Senator Hansbrough wants pure water.
Many legislators say but little about water and
regard it simply as an incidental something
to be used only for washing diluting pur-
poses. But Senator Hansbrough, as q member
OF the District committee is going to investi.
gate the water supply Of the city. He Inns al.
ready offered a resolution calling upon the
District Commissioners for information, and
he will at an appropriate time follow up that
action.
II have lived here three years." said the
Senator to STAR reporter, land in that time
1 have seen a great deal Of nasty, dirty water.
1t has been claimed that the dirt is not un.
healthy, but my opinion differs from that oil
those who make the claim. Water that is muddy
at the source will be muddy in the stream down
to the mouth. Now, there are lots Of good
springs north Of the city and want to find out
why these cannot be utilized. Very much of
this magnificent supply is going to waste-run.
ming down the Rock creek valley into the
Potomac or finding its way into the same stream
by way OF the Eastern branch. Even sup
posing that the dark brown Potomac product
in which have for some past been compelled
to battle is not unhealthy can it be compared to
that water We get from the county north OF
Washington? Why not construct q suitable
reservoir and in it accumulate the pure and
drinkable liquid we need SO much? Most Of the
streams have reference to are from $50 to
300 feet above the city level, so there would be
force enough in the supply to reach the top OF
any building except the Washington monu-
ment.
mo great city ever became great until it had
an ample supply Of pure water. The material
progress OF New York was checked for many
years because its water service was faulty.
Chicago stood still, comparatively, until water
was plentiful and pure. The present water
supply Of Chicago is not only inexhaustible, but
her water works system is, perhaps, the great
est and most comprehensive in the world.
"My general desire is to bring about a condi.
ton which will give Washington an unlimited
supply OF water that does not have to be
vouched for after every shower OF rain. There
may be satisfactory filtration scheme and il
there is l shall favor its adoption. VIVA,
about that aqueduct tunnel? II that can be
made Of any use for reasonable sum it ought
to be done, blu. what want in the city is some
OF that spring water from the high ground in
the northern part of the District and the ad.
