PHILADELPHIA, Pa, November 10.
twenty-five immigrants, who came here
as saloon passengers on the American
line steamer Waesland yesterday, were
to-day denied admission to this coun-
try by board Of inquiry of the United
States immigration commissioners, on
the ground that they had violated the
contract labor law, The party consists
of six men, two women and seventeen
children.
Under examination the men and wo-
men admitted that they were lace max
ers and came from Beaston, a small
manufacturing town near Nottingham,
England. 1t was proved that a first
class passage had been paid for them
by John Alexander Dowie, the Divine
healer" of Chicago, VINO is about to
found a city called Zion, near Wauke-
gon, Ills, where he intends to estab-
lish lace producing plant. The board
learned also that a complete lace max
ing plant is on its way here.
The identity of the lace makers was
made known by the agents of the Anal
gamated Lace and Lace Curtain Opera
tives in America, who followed them
here from England.
The board decided that as lace max
ing is not a new industry in this coun-
try, the immigrants should be deported.

ELMIRA, n. Y, November 13.-Dr.
Frank H. Flood, mayor of this city,
was placed under arrest this afternoon
by virtue of a warrant issued by Re
corder Michael Danaher upon a COM
plant sworn to by Alderman Francis

surprising as it has been rumored ever
since the Arrest of Miss Catherine Loonie
that she had in an affidavit implicated
the mayor in her crime-Jhat of offer
ing for record forged deeds of property
belonging to Miss Margaret G. Ken
nedy, of Binghamton. Miss Loonie,
who is under sentence of four years
and nine months to Auburn prison, was
taken before the recorder yesterday and

previously made in the affidavit which
is in possession CT District Attorney F..

In waving examination the mayor
was held to bail in the sum of 100000
to await the action of the next grand
jury. Flood is 40 years Of age, has a
wife and two daughters and is one of
the most competent and successful ply
sicians in the city.

HAVING MURDERED A DRUM
MER IN THIS STATE.
NAME OF TOWN NOT GIVEN.
MILAN HAS DISAPPEARED FROM
FROM CUMBERLAND, UNDER
CHARGES OF FRAUD.

Special to the Register
CUMBERLAND, Nd, Nov. 13.-This
afternoon Mrs. Patrick McLain, who
has been in the hospital here nearly
ever since she came to town, a month
ago, went before the States attorney
and made startling accusations agaist
her husband, who has disappeared,
charging him with having defrauded
over one hundred business houses
throughout the country, and that she
was compelled to go to the hospital on
account OF an operation performed on
her.
She also charged her husband with
murder. She said that in October, while
en- route here from Wheeling, that her
husband ekilled and robbed drum
mer. She says they all three alighted
from train and started to hotel, and
that after they had gotten some dis
lance from the station, her husband
shot the drummer and killed him, Sc
curing about $50 Then they went to
the station and took the next train
to Warrington. They stayed in the
latter place all night. She says she
does not know the name of the drum
mer, but that he and her husband had
been together in the smoker
She says that a man named Welsh
was afterwards arrested for the crime.
After coming here MeLain secured
employment soliciting for Baltimore
paper. Two weeks ago warrant was
sworn out against him, charging him
with defrauding the paper out OF about
$500.
McLain's home is in Buffalo, n. Y,
where he is thought to be. The police
there have been notified.

CHICAGO POLICE ARE AROUSED BY

WOMAN ASSAULTED AT HOME
BY A BURGLAR WHO HAD APPLIED
CHLOROFORM TO HER NOSTRILS.

CHICAGO, November 13.-The home
of Orrin w. Potter, at $50 Lake Shore
drive, was entered by masked burglar
early to-day Mrs. Potter was awak-
ened as the burglar, with cloth sat
urated with chloroform was bending
over her and screamed for help, but be-
fore the other members of the house
hold, aroused by her cries could come
to her assistance the burglar struck her
with a pair of GRASS knuckles, almost
rendering her unconscious, and escap-
ed. The blow cut deep cash in Mrs.
Potter's head and for time it was
feared that this and the nervous shock
would result seriously but to-day Mrs.
Potter is reported as resting comfort
ably.
Last April the Potter residence was
entered by porch climbers who secured
$4,000 in diamonds and jewelry and
escaped without leaving a clue. This
time, however, nothing was obtained.
Half a dozen suspects were arrested
but were released after giving satisfac-
tory accounts of themselves.
Last nights attempted burglary
marks the climax of series of holdups
and burglaries which have taken place
in the past few days and to-day Chief
of Police Ripley issued orders for the
immediate arrest of any known crook
in the city.

MEN AND CHILDREN.

LONDON, Nov. 13.-The Globe pub
fishes a letter from a Belgian GENTLE
man who has been travelling to Peking
via the Trans-Sheridan railroad. He
describes, under date of September 6,
what he saw in the Amur river. His
account surpases in horror those pre-
yiously published.
The scenes l have witnessed during
the three days since the steamer left
Blagoyetchensk," he says, ARE horri-
| be beyond the powers of description"
| It is the closing tableaux OF q fear
full human tragedy. Two thousand were
deliberately drowned at Morxo. two
thousand at Rabe. and eight thousand
around Blagovetchensk, a total of
twelve thousand corpses encumbering
the river, among which were thousands
of women and children. Navigation
was all but impossible. Last week a
| boat had to pillow her way through
a tangled and mangled mass of corpses,
| dashed together by their long hair. The
banks were literally covered with
corpses. In the curves of the stream
were dark masses of human flesh and
bone, surging and swaying In the
steamers wake and wash. The captain
vainly ordered full speed ahead. The
sight will ever be with us.
! From Blagovetchensk to Aigun, 45
kilometers, numerous villages studded
the bank, with thriving, Industrious
population Of over 100000. That of Al
gun was 10000. No one will ever
know the number Of those who perish

OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
N CHINESE settlement.
ONE DEMAND WILL BE THAT THE
CITY OF PEKIN BE MADE
AN OPEN PORT.
BEHEADING BY MERE EDICT
IS REPULSIVE AND MAY BE DIS
CONTINUED UNDER THE
NEW DEAL.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-In addi-
ton to the points said to be agreed
upon at Pekin as a basis for settle
ment with China, as announced in cable
dispatches, it is understood that sew
eral other points are likely to receive
attention when the matter is taken UP
with the Chinese ENJOYS. One of these
is as to making the city OF Pekln an
"open port" for, while it is not on the
seacoast, the purpose is to extend to 1t
that freedom of commerce and inter
course with foreigners which now ap-
plies only to those open ports designa-
ted by treaties with China. The sugges-
ton that this action be taken has been
made in high Chinese quarters, and It's
advisability is urged because Pekln, as
the capital Of the Chinese empire, Is
the centre Of influence throughout the
country.
Another point which may be propos-
ed is that capital punishment by pc
heading or otherwise shall not occur IN
the future by imperial edict alone but
only after a trial such as is given IN
civilized countries, the accused having
an opportunity to be heard. This does
not apply to the executions made by the
Boxer movement
Official dispatches have been received
from the viceroys of the southern prov
inces of China, who thus far have been
most friendly to foreigners, stating that
they were shocked by the execution OF
the acting viceroy of Chi Ii and also
stating that they feared this would have
