 More Restrictions Placed Upon Immi-
 grants Reported.
 Washington, Feb. 1S.--In lieu of the various bills before it on the subject of restricting immigration the senate immigration committee to-day report ed bill adding to the classes of aliens excluded from admission to the United States.
 All persons over fourteen years of age who cannot read and write the language of their native country, ex- cept that an aged parent not so able to read and write who is the parent or grandparent of an admissible immi- grant may accompany or be sent for by such immigrant For the purpose of testing the ability of the immigrant to read and write the inspection officers shall be furnished with copies of the constitution of the United States print ed on numbered uniform pasteboard slips, each containing five lines of the constitution printed in the various ian- guages of the immigrants in double small pica type. These slips are to be kept in boxes made for that purpose and so constructed as to conceal the slips from view, each box to contain slips of but one language, and the inn migrant may designate the language in which he prefers the test shall be made. Each immigrant shall be required to draw one of the slips from the box and read, and afterwards write out, in full view of the immigration officers, the five lines printed thereon. Each slip shall be returned to the box immediate ly after the test is finished and the contents of the box shall be shaken up by an inspection officer before another drawing is made. No immigrant fail- ing to read and write out the slip thus set down by him shall be admitted, but he shall be returned to the country from which he came at the expense of the steamship or railroad which brought him, as now provided by law. The inspection officers shall keep in each box at all times a full number of the printed slips, and in the case of each excluded immigrant shall keep a certified memorandum of the number of the slip which the said immigrant fail ed to read or copy out in writing. In the report accompanying the bill the committee states that there is a general desire to restrict foreign irnn1i- grafton. The committee believes the country is not yet ready for capita tion tax on immigrants, and recom- mends the consular certif1cation plan The committee presents a mass of sta tistics which show that the illiteracy l test will tell most heavily on those classes which now furnish the paupers, diseased and criminals excluded by ex- isting law, and that the immigrants who would be excluded by the test do not go to the western and southern states, and become agriculturists, but remain almost entirely in the Atlantic states and in the great centers of pop ulation where the labor market is over- | crowded.

Said to Have Been Caused by Electric Light
 wire-The Window Wrecked.
 A slight blaze occurred at about S:45 o'clock last evening in the Connecticut Clothing company's store on Chapel street. The alarm was rung in from box 21 and the street in front of tha store was soon filled with a large crowd. It was stated by one of the gentlemen in charge of the store last evening that MT. Caroza, the window decorator, had just finished dressing the window and stepped back to turn on the electric light to observe the result of his work. He had just turned on the light when the tissue paper used in window decora- tion blazed'up MT. Caroza said that he thought an electric light wire, from which the insulation had worn, came in contact with the tissue paper and set it ablaze, though this was denied by an electric light man. The fire was ex- tinguised by the firemen by hand ex- tinguished by the firenen by hand ex- in the window was badly burned and the decorations consumed. The fire was so hot that the large plate glass windows in front were cracked. The store was filled with smoke. It was iIn- possible to exactly estimate the dam- age last night, but the proprietors stat- ed that it would probably be about $500 or s1,000.

COMPRESSION OF 4 BURGLAR.
He Said That He Had Committed Several
 Safe Burg g'aries.

He Said That He Had Committed Several
 Safe Burg g'aries.
 New York, Feb. 1S.-Following close ly on the safe robbery of the Unsur passed Coffee company's restaurant on Park Row on Sunday came the arrest of two men yesterday who were sus- pected of being safe robbers. One of the men entered a drug store here on Sunday and asked for some nitro -gly- cerine The clerk became suspicious and sent for policeman, who arrested the stranger.
 The prisoner said his name was Will liam Mason. He broke down and con- fessed to several burglaries. He said he lived at 34 East Twelfth street and had some valuable bonds there. De- tectives went to the house and found that Mason and Thomas Stevens room- ed together. Stevens was in bed and was arrested. In the room were found bonds purporting to be of the Mobile and Dauphin Island railroad, valued at S1,00O. Mason afterwards said that the bonds were fakes and that he bought them on the Bowery at the rate of two for five cents. He said that while living at home in Boston he got hold of a book written upon the sub ject of safe burglary by Langdon W. Moore, one of tiae most expert safe rob bers in the country.
 Mason became imbued with the de- sire to become a safe breaker, so he went to Moore and told him of his am bition. Moore introduced him to Ste- vens. They planned together to rob national banks.
 Mason stated that on the night of January they got in the Cooperative bank at Newtonville, suburb of Bos- | ton, and prepared to commit their first | joint burglary. They bored three holes l in the big safe in the place, but when | they tried to bore a most necessary hole close to the combination they struck piece of steel which their tools were unable to pierce. They went away disappointed.
 On February they gained entrance into the offices of the Metropolitan Life | Insurance company at Newton, near Boston. They bored holes in the side and top of the safe filled them with an l explosive and the safe was blown to pieces. The burglars were blown few feet away, but were not injured The l burglars found $70O in the safe and es- capped with the money. About a week ago they came to this city and were looking around to find a suitable chance to operate upon safes. Chief of Police Richardson of New ton confirms the story told by Mason. The prisoners will be held here until requisition papers for return to New ton are prepared.
 Stevens denies the story of his com panion and will not admit his compile ity in the crimes. He claims that he is not criminal, but Mason states that Stevens told him that he had served five years in prison in this state and six months in an eastern prison. The detectives are satisfied that the | men know nothing about the Unsur- passed Coffee company robbery on Sun | day.

THE TRIIL STILL ON.
Examination of President Huntingdon
 Continued.

COntlnutNs
 Washington. Feb. 1S.-The examina- tlon of President Huntingdon of the Southern Pacific railroad by Senator Morgan was resumed to-day before the senate Pacific railroad committee. MT. Morgan directed his line of inquiry toward the relations between the Con tract and Finance company and the Central Pacific and the destruction of the books of the former company. The books were burned, MT. Huntingdon said, because the company was disin- corporated and there was no use in keeping them, as the accounts were all closed.
 Mir. Morgan then read the resolutions adopted at the mass meeting held re- gently in San Francisco to protest to congress against the extension of the Southern Pacific railroads. MT. Hunt ingdon said he had been informed that there were just fifty-two persons pres ent at what he termed That Sutro meeting" The representation was largely confined to San Francisco and Oakland.
 MT. Morgan, having mentioned the names of Messrs. Barry, Terrell and Reynolds as members of the anti-fund- ing committee appointed at a meeting held in San Francisco last year, Mr. Huntingdon said contemptuously that he wondered whether they were on the tax list of San Francisco.
 MT. Morgan spoke of the earnestness of the protest coming from San Fran cisco
 There is nothing in it. MT. Hunt ingdon said. half so earnest as Adolf Sutro was when he told me that, if I did not build a road to his place, where he has a drinking saloon, a bath house. gambling house and rooms upstairs, and build it at once, he would fight me in Washington, and fight me every where"
 MT. Huntingdon afterwards spoke of Messrs. Sutro, Estee, Cannon, Gibson and others as being "as uncanny a crowd as farmer even found in his hen roost at night. All these charges emanate from the same parties"
