IMMIGRATION ABUSES.
President Harrison, in Letter, Indicates that
They Shall Have Proper Attention.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Jan. THE frequent
violations of the alien contract labor law.
which was adopted through the active
efforts of the labor organizations. more
especially the glass-workers of Pitts
burg. will be made subject of q
conference of inquiry In New York
this week. The consultation is for
the purpose of arranging specifications
that are to be presented to President Har-
ris0n, showing that the prominent pro-
visions of the labor law have been repeat
edly annulled by the action of the very
officers whose duty it is to see that it 10
enforced. The prime cause for the failure
of the law to act is conflict OF authority
between Owen, of the Bureau OF Immigra-
ton, and first Assistant Secretary Of
the Treasury Nettlet0n. whose decisions
have been widely different on almost all
the cases when doubtful immigrants we're
detained at the various ports of landing.
In letter to Secretary Coke, of the VIM
dow-glass- workers Association. President
Harrison says he has received several let
ters upon the subject. but they are oil
wanting In specifications. An inquiry will
be made as soon as Secretary Foster il able
to be ont again. The letter continues:
What we have both said upon this sub.
sympathy with thorough enforcement Of
the law to which you refer. Some of the
letters have received seem to go upon
the impression that the Superintendent
OF Immigration, in the Treasury De-
partment, IL an independent officer,
while the law only makes him q
bureau chief, necessarily acting un-
der the Secretary of the Treasury,
Immediately. or under such one of the as
sistant secretaries as may be assigned. AZ
/ have already intimated, in order to have
any satisfactory adjustment of complaints,
there should be something specific. But,
as have said, such inquiry will be made
as soon as the Secretary is able. with q
view of ascertaining whether any one has
been at fault"

the attitude OF NJ. Ribot, Minister of For

declared, lacks the gravity which has been
attributed TO it by the foreign press. and q
speedy and satisfactory settlement of the
difficulty between France and Bulgaria Is
confidently expected.
Ii is semi ficially declared at Sofia that
the Bulgarian government has not the
slightest intention of proclaiming Its inde-
pendence, and that the rumor to this effect
has evidently been circulated with the
view to SOW dlscord between Bulgaria and
the Porte. and thus delay the settlement of
the Chadouine affair.

TOBACCO MONOPOLY CANCELLED.

Persian Priests Win In Their Fight Against
n Corporation Established by the Shah.
TEHERAN, Jan. The agitation started
by the priests against the tobacco reggie re-
suited in the government withdrawing
from the company holding the concession
the right to establish tobacco monopoly in
Persia. Tocompensate the company for the
loss thus sustained the government agreed
to pay the company certain sum of money
and TO give 1t monopoly of the export
tobacco trade. This did not meet
with the approval of the priests.
and they therefore continued the
interdict they had previously laid
against the use of tobacco which had
looked to the abolition Of the tobacco
reggie. The feeling against the monopoly
grew so strong that on Sunday. Jan. 8. q
mob assembled at the Sbah's palace, and
not only demanded the abolition of the ex-
port monopoly, but clamored for tho ex-
pulsion from tho country OF the members
of the tobacco corporation. The mob be-
came riotOus. and all efforts to pacifv it
wero unavailinR. 1t was finally found
necessary to call upon the military to dis
perse the rioters. This added fuel to the
flames of popular dIscontent, and the mob
resisted the soldiery. In the fighting that
followed several persons were killed. The
government finding that the popular agita-
ton WAS increasing decided to change its
policy, and to-day a decree was issued cam
ceiling the monopoly given to the company
to export tobacco.
