WAsulNGroS spcc. IS. The senate
yesterday passcd the immigration bill,
known es the Lodge bill, with a now
section, providing that the exclusion
shall not apply TO persons arriving
from Cuba during the continuance Of
Tie present disorders there The
strength Of the bill was greater than
had been expected the final vote be-
ing 81 to 10.
AS passed. the bill amends the inmi-
grafton laws so as to exclude from I'D
mission to the United States all per-
sons over 1G years Of age. who cannot
read and write the language OF their
native country or some other language,
but an admissible immigrant, over the
age Of l6, may bring in with him, or
send for, his wife or parent or grand
parent or minor children or grand
child, Notwithstanding their inability
70 read and write.
For the purpose of testing the abil-
ity of the immigrant to read and write,
as required by the foregoing section,
the inspection officer shall be furnished
copies of the constitution OF the United
States, printed on numbered uniform
pastboard slips. each containing five
lines of the constitution, printed in the
various languages Of the immigrants in
double small plea type These slips
shall be kept in boxes made for that
purpose and SO constructed as to con-
ceal the slips from view, each box 10
contain slips OF but one language, and
the immigrant may designate the Ian
guage in which he prefers the test to
be made Each immigrant shall be
required 10 draw one Of these slips
from the box and read, and afterward
write ont in full view of the immigra-
tion officers, the five lines printed
thereon Each slip shall be returned
to the box Immediately after the test is
finished. and the contents of the box
shall bo taken up by an inspector be-
fore another drawing is made.
No immigrant falling TO read and
write out the slip thus drawn by him
shall be admitted; but he shall be re
turned to the country whence lac came
at the expense of the steamship or rail
road company which brought him, as
now provided by law. The inspection
officer shall keep ia each box at all
times, a full number of these printed
pasteboard slips, and in the case of
each excluded immigrant, shall keep a
certified memorandum of the number
Of the slip which the immigrant failed
TO read or copy out in writing.
The Cuban section added to the bill
provides that the action shall not
apply 20 persons arriving in the United
States from any port or place in the
Island of Cuba during the continuance
of the present disorders there, pro
vidcd that such persons have hereto
fore been inhabitants OF that island.
An amendment by Mr. ElSins pro
posing a $40 head tax ON immigrants
coming I'm other than American ships
occasionod considerable debate and
was finally tabled, as were several
other amendments
