COW newspaper which had violated the
prohibition against the publication of uni
versity bulletins. A secret circular has
been issued reminding all the newspapers
that the prohibition is now effective.
Information has been received here that

cision in their case, however, they We're
forbidden to re-enter the university. Six
teen additional arrests were subsequently
made.

until sentences against the students should
be revoked and military law repealed.

We're adopted expressing great discomfort
with the sentences imposed at kief and
with military law generally, but it was ;d-
mittcd that obstruction cannot lead to any
desirable result. Furthermore, the meeting
declared its convictions that the students
at other institutions would reach equally
sensible conclusions if they We're granted
similar liberties

CONSUL HAY SCORES SUCCESS.
By Quick Discernment He Secures
Food for All Foreigners.

Consul Hay scored a considerable diplo-
matte success at Pretoria before leaving
there. Lord Kitchener had issued procla-
nation at Johannesburg which, while al
lowing the English and Dutch to buy food
from the government stores prohibited this
privilege to foreigners. There is no food
in shops, and 1t is very difficult to obtain
1t in any direction; so 1t looked very much
like starvation for the 5000 foreigners on
the Rand. The consular corps at Johannes
burg got together and exhausted all their
resources without avail and at last dis
patched Mr.. Gordon, the American consular
agent to Pretoria to enlist the help of the
consul. Mr.. Hay, hearing that Lord Kitch-
ener was about to leave town. went to him
Immediately, without consultation with his
colleagues, laid the matter before him and
succeeded in getting an order to the mill
tary governor at Johannesburg to allow not
only Americans, but all foreigners to OBJ
tain food at the government stores on GER
tificates from their representatives. 1t was
rather surprise to the rest of the consuls
when the order was issued, but 1t was too
clearly in the interest of all the foreign
population to excite any objection.

REJECTED CHINESE IMHiGRANTS
Effort to Compel Steamship COM
lnmies to Return Them.

The Secretary of the Treasury sent to the
Senate today letter from the commission
er general of immigration requesting man
datory legislation for the purpose Of requir
ing steamship companies bringing Chinese
persons to ports of the United States to re-
turn to China those who may be rejected
by the United States authorities. The
present law is intended to accomplish this
purpose, but it is not considered sufficiently
specific, it having been found from exper-
ience that Cinnamon who are refused ad-
mission change their destination to con-
tisuous foreign territory, thus securing ad-
mission into the United States through
comparatively unguarded points along our
northern and southern boundary.
The commissioner general also suggests
an amendment to the existing law, author
fZing Chinese and migrant inspectors to
make summary arrest of Chinese believed
by them to be unlawfuly in this country.
