STARVING IMMIGRANTS.
Suffering Among the Red Seas Cargo of
 Foreign PauperS-


 NEW YORK, July lS.-The tale of hard ship and privation which the passengers of the steamship Red Sea told. shows that those who took accommodation on that vessel were exposed to cruelties scarcely less intolerable than those they were flee Ing from Russia to escape, Not only was their money taken. according to the state mentS made by the passengers to Assistant Commissioner MCSweeney, but those who paid for luNuries were deprived of them after they had given up their money
 The necessities of life. which on even the poorest class of passenger steamships ar. literally furnished. were not fOrthcomins- Bread and water was certainly the least the passengers hoped to get. and yet for two days at time they walked the decks and slept through the night without either touching their lips.
 The charges were denied by the captain and officers of the steamship but while Mir McSweeney was on the vessel he saw half a dozen of the female passengers faint. They were on deck at the time enjoying the cool air which was waited across the bay to Woodruff stores.
 To the question of MT. MCSweeney the | women said they had not partaken of food for two days. When an official in the gov l ernment service reported that he had seen | the women and men fight for the morSels of bread which were distributed. the dep | uty commissioner ordered & supply of food to be distributed among the passengers al once. They will be removed to Ellis island for inspection, and while many of then, will be sent back to Europe they will, for a time at least. escape the hardships of the | past three weeks.
 C. D. Richards X Go. notified pr. Senner | that they would give bonds for the pas | sengers- Dr. Senner was unwilling to state how many passengers would probably te ksent back From his conversation it can be inferred that 25O to 300 must return tC Europe. Healthy passengers without mon ey who have friends here will be landed.

SECRETARY MORTON thinks the work of the weather bureau should be con fined to the purposes for which it was established and that the employment of high salaried scientific experts to ex- pertinent along lines which nobody really knows anything about, is all wrong, and in consequence of those thoughts he has notified several pro- fessors who have been engaged upon work that was of no immediate practi- cal use either to the bureau or to the public, that their services will be dis pensed with. The secretary intends that the entire talent of the bureau shall be devoted to improving the daily forecasts of the weather. which he believes to be the work which is the most beneficial to the public. How the fur would fly" remarked a man who knows considerable about the in- side workings of some of the other so- colled scientific bureaus of the govern ment. Eff 8 man like Morton was put in charge of the geological and the coast survey offices. He knows enough about science not to allow himself to be bam- boozled by the fake scientists whose sole object in life is to hold on to the soft snaps they now have"

IN New York police court the other day gentleman and his wife began legal proceedings to compel a neighbor to extinguish rooster that used to be- gin it's growing long before daybreak, making sleep impossible except to his deaf owner. The keeper of the bird swore that the voice of his pet was as soft as a cooing doves and that the action was prompted by malice. The case seemed to be going his way when the rooster, having been brought in as an exhibit, lifted his his head and emitted a crow so loud and long that decision was given for the plaintiff forthwith.

How satin Was Discovered.

A century ago n silk weaver named Octavio Mai during a dull period of business was one day pacing before his loom, not knowing how to give a new impulse to his trade. Every time he passed the machine he meditatively pulled little threads from the warp and put them in his mouth, splitting them out soon after Later he observed lit tie ball of silk upon the floor of the shop and was astonished at the brilliancy of the threads. Upon repeating the expert ment and eventually employing various mucilaginous preparations he succeeded in giving satin to the world.

The fight was so fierce that il threatened to disrupt SoroSis. Then il gathered in the New York State Suffrage party. of which Mir. Wilcox was president. and also threw the Influence club into chaos.
 It finally reached out and took in the New York Peace society in this way: A call was sent out for a meeting to form a new peace society in New York to take the place of the old one. uf which Miss Sarah F.. Fuller is president At that mrrtiuE, which was held in the African Mr;hudt>i mission rooms in the Bible house. Nir Wilcox was elected chairman on Nr~ Ormsby's mott ion. and she was elected sec retary on MT. Willcox's motion.
 Then a member who was present IS a representative of MT Love askei if the meeting was not irregular, since there wAs a regular peace society in New York then Mrs. Ormsby said no, that she had received a letter from President Love telling her to go ahead with the meeting,
 She was asked to produce the letter but she had left it at home. President Love was written to a few days later and denied that he had had any correspondence with Mrs. Ormsby or Mir. Wilcox on the sub ject and condemned the holding of the meeting. Miss Fuller's friends rallied around her and proposed to hold the fort She has calmly gone on since with her peace work, confident that the Universal Peace union would not see her forced out
 When it was found the other day that she and the regular New York society had been omitted from the committee to re ceive deleGat>s in this city, her friends be came indignant and the letter to Mrs. Lock wood calling her to account for this neglect was written by lady who resent ed the sliG't put upon the regular New York Peace society.
