EUROPE'S SCUM CAST
ON AMERICAN SHORES
Undesirable Immigrants Are
Steadily Increasing.

From the last annual report of the
Commissioner of immigration it is evil
dent that immigration of poor and ignor-
ant, and consequently less desired. for
eigners. Is steadily on the increase, IT
is said that the President will discuss
the subject in his message. and will urge
the necessity Of action to prevent the
lowering of the standard of American
citizenship by the introduction OF such
persons.
The total number of immigrants last
month was 1861. compared with 51,sia
OF 1883. OF this tctal I2.09S came from
Hungary. an increase of 1924 for
the month. Italy, including Sicily and
Sardinia, sent 1i,7i9, which is 4,215 more
than came from that country in Septem-
Der Of last year. From Finland and other
parts of the Russian empire there came
10.2s2. an increase of 3.43l for the month
Roumania sent 1,21S an increase of 619;
Sweden, 5.0s9, an increase of 2,215.
Greece. 912, an increase OF 627. and Tur-
key, 663, an increase of 12S.
These seven countries thus furnished
1881 of the immigrants who arrived
last month, or about three quarters of
the whole. 1t is believed that the rea-
son for the rush of these people to get
into the United States is the fear that
restrictions will be made in the near
future which will render 1t difficult for
them to enter the Promised Land"

Trusts F4otects the Bosses.

EaNE&%h A0SOS I1I0GSCUS Ull0 OoSS0S. 49,
Morgan and the magnates--the
whole of Wall street, for that mat
matter-have shown as plainly as if
the truth yer painted on the clouds
how intimate is their connection
with the republican party bosses.
Workingmen all over the country
strove to make an impression on
the magnates. There was no sign
of relenting.
Millions of coal-users and ordinary
5usiness men begged for some effort
to end the strike. They got no at
tention.
Suffering threatened the poo
people of eastern cities. The en-
tire urban population of the country
east Of the Missouri river was be-
ing subjected to immense inconveni-
ence and expense. Coke and other
substitutes for anthracite doubled
in price. The expense account for
fuel withdrew from other lines of re"
tail business a great volume of pat
ronage upon which business a great
volume of patronage upon which
business men had been calculating.
Every branch of trade was more
or less damaged and anxious. No
response from the magnates!
But at last it dawned upon the
bosses of the republican party that
q p~rolongation Of the strike meant
heavy election losses in the eastern
subsequently, enough to give
Pennsylvania and New York to the
democrats, with the control of the
house Of representatives.
Senator Penrose, Senator Quay,
Gov. Stone and other big rrotec-
zionist leaders went to work for par
~. Wall street melted in u day!
The CT. 0. P. must be saved. The
suffering Of the people was nothing
todisturb the magnate, but the East
ern procetionists who control the re-
publican party and keepit in line for
the trusts must not lose any con-
gressmen. Morgan unbent and
went to Washington with a plan of
arbitration which could as well have
been presented, or heard, two
months ago.
The miners cannot congratulate
themselves on having won anything.
Whatever they may get will be due
to q fit of fright which overlook the
republican bosses. The miners and
the nation could accomplish nothing.
An alarm bell from republican boss
headquarters brought results without
Ideiay. The magnates did not then
need time to reflect. They could
move in a minute.
Protectionist and trustmagnates
know their friends and their serv-
ants. The proposal to- arbitrate is
dash to the rescue of the republi.
can party. The bosses give tariff
protection to the trusts and the
trusts rush to the protection Of the
bosses.

GOVERNMENT
STRENGTHENED
Parliamentary Rupture a
Fortunate Thing for the
King Of Belgium.
Troops, Tinctured With So
cialism, Are Hardly to Be
Relied Upon.

Brussels, April 12.-Perhaps the most
significant event of yesterday was the
open rupture in the chamber Of deputies
between the socialists and the liberal
faction, heretofore associated with the
former with the object of forcing the gov
eminent to grant universal suffrage. This
split notably strengthens the govern.
ton Of the moderate parties promises to
last as long as the incipient revolution.
continues.
The police, gendarmes and civic guards.
who are all regarded as thoroughly trust
worthy, are being utilized so far as pos
sible in dealing with those who take part
in demonstrations, but not / in riots.
These demonstrators are mostly composed
Of earnest socialists, while the rioters
are more closely allied with anarchists.
There is no doubt that the troops are
leavened and there is apprehension as to
their loyalty when the acute stage Is
reached, with the beginning Of the gen
eral strike next. week. The government
has taken the most comprehensive
measures and is firmly resolved not to
yield to the revolutionary movement,
holding that in order to deal properly
with the questions of the revision of the
constitution and universal suffrage it is
essential that parliament may be able to
deliberate uninfuenced by the mob.
In consequence of the receipt of a let
ter threatening to blow up with dynamite
the Falance works at LaLouviere, unless
work there is stopped, the manager has
shut down the factory and has ordered the
], 200 employees; who include 500 women, to
leave the premises Immediately.

SAMAR EXECUTIONS
Judge Advocate Fterce1y Denounces
Major Walters Course.

Judge Advocate FierceIy Denounces
Major Walters Course.
Manila, April 12.-The Judge advocate.
Major Henry P. Kingsbury, replied to
day to the summing up before the court
martial yesterday, Of Captain Arthur T.
Mark, representing Major Littleton w.
Waller, tried for executing natives Of
Samar without trial. Major Kingsbury
contended that Major Waller was under
military and not martial law and that
there was nothing in the conduct of the
men who were shot deserving of such
punishment. u
The Judge advocate blamed Major Wal
Ter himself for the disasters which befell
the marines and accused him of abandon
ing ten helpless comrades whose bones
were now bleaching on the banks of the
Langan," to die Of hunger. The Judge
advocates denunciation of the methods
by which the prisoners who were to be
shot were chosen. was dramatic.
They were lined up." he said. for the
rattle Of death, at the sole will and pleas
'ure of Private Davis, a marine, who was
Judge and prosecutor"
He accused Major Waller Of yielding to
the dictates Of ambition and not to the
dictates of duty, asserted that the ma
tives, according to the evidence, acted In
many instances in a highly CONNIE ndable
manner, and declared that. their faith
fulness and not their treachery had been
disclosed before the court.
Captain Mark, in reply, protested very
strongly against criticism OF the way in
which Major Waller had conducted the
campaign, which, he said, was outside the
case. and again insisted that martial law
ruled by the mere nature OF the conh.
tions No decision has been announced.
