Treatment of Women, Exonerated.
Assistant Secretary Taylor of the Treas
ury announced yesterday that he had ex-
onerated John Lederhilger. Of the New
York Barge Office, who had been charged
by a special investigating committee with
brutality toward women and girl immi-
grants. Karl E. Kumpf, j. Ross Stewart
and Emil Auspitz. petty officials oil the
barge office, who were accused oil accept
ing brides or of brutality, were yesterday
discharged from the service by the ASSIST
ant Secretary. Fcur cases against officials
charged with bribery are still undisposed
of but will probably be acted upon today.
The case against Lederhilger has at
tracted perhaps the most attention. he
was accused of having Practlced lnoe-
cencies toward the women and girl I'M
migrants arriving at the barge ofhce. The
investigating committee composed of J. X
Rodgers and r. K. Campbell, which made
a thorough enquiry into the scandal, rec
commended the dismissal of Lederhilger.
That recommendation was concurred in by
Commissioner General Powderly 1t was,
however, objected to by Commissioner
Fitchie. OF the barge office.
The announcement that Mr.. Taylor had
exonerated Lederhilger caused great sur
prise. The special investigating com
mittee that looked into his case reported
that the man, who was chief OF the Reg
istry Division, had accompanied his
treatment of women Immigrants with
every incident of coarse language and
rude examination Of person within the
resources of impure imagination and IN
checked power" One case is pointed out
where young Italian woman comrlittei
suicide after the agony of having been
subjected to Lederhilger's treatment.
The chief offender in all the barge ONCE
however. in the eyes of the investigating
committee. was Assistant Commissioner
Edward insolvency, who is charged with
having accepted brides wholesale. The
committee in its report declared that all
reform in the barge Office would be de-
pendent upon the discharge OF McSweeney.
Assistant Secretary Taylor has not brought
any charge against Insolvency. so far as
can be learned, and the man is not under
