SHIPPED FIRST TO CANADA.
How Undesirable Emigrants Are Snug
gled Into This Country.

Washington, October 17.-Commissioner
Powderly of the immigration bureau has
received voluminouS report from Mr..
Robert Watchorn, an immigration inspec-
tor at New York, who some months ago,
was instructed by Mr. Powderly to go
TO Europe and investigate the causes
which have resulted in diverting the flow
of immigration from us to Canadian
ports and also the facts as to the practice
of charitable institutions in assisting
paupers and criminals and other undesir-
able classes to emigrate to the United
States. MIR. Watchorn finds that the strict
enforcement of our immigration laws,
particularly at New York, has resulted
In compelling INSCRIPTIONS emigration
agents abroad to seek to evade them by
sending the most undesirable classes 20
Canada, at the same time assuring them
that they would find little or no difficulty
in passing the border into the United
States. In very many instances, Mr..
Watchorn thinks this scheme has been
successfully carried out. He finds upon
investigation that much more stringent
Immigration laws than formerly are
being enacted by all the new countries,
including Australia, so that practically
this is the only country now left open
for the undesirable classes. Nearly all
of the old countries of Europe are also
more strictly enforcing their immigration
laws and at the same time they offer lit
tie objection to the departure Of their
INDECENT and criminal GLASSES. Mr..
Watchorn finds that very large number
of emigrants receive help from many
charitable societies and institutions in
nearly all of the European capitals.

MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE.
Episcopals Vote not to Change Present
Canons.

Washington, October l7.-Important
action was taken by the respective bodies
Of the Episcopal council here to-day on
two subjects which have caused much
discussion during the deliberations of
those bodies. The house of bishops, in
secret session, by a vote of 81 to "a, re-
jected the propositions bearing. on the
subject of re.marriages of divorced per-
sons, designed to take the place of those
now in existence. The present canons
on that subject therefore remain in force.
In the house of deputies after debate
which has continued for several days, a
step in the direction of church unity was
taken. The discussion of this subject
was precipitated by the offering of an
amendments to the constitution by the
Rev. DR.. Huntington of New York.
While agreeing with the principle of
this, the deputies finally decided to adopt
a briefer amendment offered by Mr.. Faure
of Minnesota, as follows:
"But provision may be made by the
canon for the temporary use of other
forms and directories of worship by con-
areRations not already in union with this.
church who are willing to accept the
spiritual oversight of the bishop Of the
diocese
The amendment, if adopted by the
Bishops, will go to the dioceses for act
ion and must be passed upon by the next
general convention before 1T becomes
operative.

Zone of the chief aims of the manufac.
turers is to produce ribbon which will
leave permanent impression on the pa
per. Ink which has lampbIack as base
is always permanent; it cannot be ex-
tracted by acids and will not fade by
long exposure to the light. The ribbons
in most common use are the black copy
ing, purple and purple copying, and
record made by any one of them may be
regarded as absolutely lasting. Many OF
the best ribbons have selvaged edges,
which prevent their ravelling and curling
when in use. They are nearly uniform
in thickness, though some ribbons are
made of very thin texture for use When
q large numb Der of copies is desired.
''The cloth of which the majority OF
ribbons are made is very fine quality
of 'jaconet' or nainsook, most OF which
comes from England and Germany. Inc
ink is applied by means of rollers, and
is forced between the fbres of the cloth
by revolving brushes. Then the surplus
ink Is absorbed, different methods being
employed to accomplish that process.
Zach maker has secret process Tor pro-
dueing his individual ribbon. and the Sc
oret is guarded with the greatest posslble
care. The foreman of ribbon fac ory Is
the only man there who knows the exact
formula for mixing the powder or pig
ment used in making the INK; all the
other employees do as they are directed by
the foreman or by printed instructions.
sit is the rule in making ribbons to
amply the ink to both sides of the cloth.
One manufacturer, however, inks only
one side, saying that ribbons linked in
that way do not clog the tyne SO often as
those which are linked on both sides. His
assertion might be true If the clogging
were caused solely by the ink, but it is
not. Little par ioles OF the cloth are be-
ing detached constantly. which work into
the type, and whether ink is present or
not the letters are bound to be filled ooca-
sionally.
Gan effort has been made in Germany
to make ribbons which would take the
place of those imported from America,
but the German manufacturer failed TO
induce the trade to accept his product.
1t will be long time before our foreign
friends are able to bring out ribbons
which will supplant those made here.
ana our manufacturers have little cause
to far competition from that source"

ket for pulp board since 1925. The m ct
ings have been held at the Hotel MAJ
haitian and at the rooms of the National
Pulp Board Association in the Times
Building. No definite conclusion has
bean reached as yet but another nesting
has been called to be held in Boston with
in two weeks.
The question of the mill valuations Ia at
present the stun bling block in the way
of harmonious adjustment of all the dis
cordant elements. Indeed it is said the
discussion on this point became so warm
at one stage of the proceedings that it
look as though some of the mauufao-
turers might come to blows.
The pulp board market is in very I'M
satisfactory state. and some Of the manu-
faoturers have come to the conclusion
that the only way to properly regulate
the manufacture and sales of pulp board
in this country is to forInsa big company
and buy the plant outright. If such
plan should go through it is quite likely
that the National Pulp Board Company
will go out of existence.
The pull p board industry of the United
States produces about 800 tons every
twenty -four hours Of this amount ESQ

DEATHS WE'RE SUSPICIOUS.

Woburn, Mass, October 17.-Ellen Nc
Hugh died last night in this city and the
fact that her sister Kate was seriously
i'll and liable to die at any minute, led
to the circulation of rumors of suicide by
poisoning. Medical Examiner Blake,
who was called in this morning, gave ac-
oidental poisoning as the cause of Ellen s
death, but this afternoon Kate McHugh
died and because of representations made
to him since Ellen death, the medical
examiner has decided to ask the district
attorney to, order an investigation. There
are ciroum stances connected with the
deaths Of these sisters which lead to tho
belief that they were poisoned through
food which they had eaten but whether
it was taken with suicidal intent or
ministered by other hands is not at pres.
emf known.
