1t has been the custom in receiving
new immigrants at New York to send
the rejected ones to Ellis island till
they could be returned to the old coun-
try Last week this resulted in some
disorders there and it was feared that
some shooting would have to be done
before the mob was quieted. About
$50 foreigners, mostly of the lower
class of Italians, had been sent to the
island to await their turn at being sent
back. They became very boisterous
and an attempt was made to overpower
the officers and escape. The men in
charge had a fierce fight and finally
subdued the crowd. The United States
government at once considerably
increased the force and it is understood
that detail of regular troops will be
kept within reach to be called on if
necessary.
