CONTRACT LABoRERa
English Glass Blowers Sent Back by
Secretary Corte1you.

The cases Of the English glassblowers, de-
tanned at Ellis Island under the alien con-
tract labor law. have been decided by the
Secretary Of Commerce and Labor adverse
ly to the alters. and their deportation has
been ordered. Secretary Cortelyou, on the
papers submitted, says:
"The above mentioned aliens, while seek
ing admission into the United States, were
on October IL and october 10 detained by
officers of the immigration service and
taken before boards of special inquiry for
examination. All these aliens are highly
skilled glassblowers, who came from Stour-
bridge, England, or vicinity; they landed at
Montreal and were bound for Corning, New
York, to which place they claimed to be
going In order to seek employment having
seen advertisements in English newspapers
to the effect that new glass works were
being established at Corning and skilled la
borers were needed
upon examination they denied that they
were under contract or that they came be-
cause of solicitations or in reliance upon
offers or promises of employment; they as
serted that they came voluntarily and In
dependently. No right to enter the United
States as contract laborers by virtue Of any
exception or proviso in the contract labor
law was asserted at the hearing, but on
the contrary they unqualifiedly and explicit
ly denied that they were under contract
express or implied. The boards of special
inquiry found otherwise and excluded them
from admission. The aliens at once ap-
pealed to the Secretary of Commerce and
Labor, and their attorneys requested an
opportunity to present additional evidence.
In view of the Importance of the question
this request was granted. and the appel
lants had been permitted to present a mass
of testimony. while various persons and or
ganizat tons had been accorded an equal right
to offer material evidence. Pending the deci-
sion of the appeals the appellants, with the
exception of Matthews, have been detained
al Ellis Island. Matthews was detained in
Canada, he not having succeeded in making
entry into the United States.
1.-THE cases of the appellants have been
practically assumed by the Steuben Glass
Works of Corning, n. Y, the corporation
which, according to the evidence offered be-
fore the board of special inquiry had con-
tracted expressly or implicitly for the serv-
Ices of the aliens, or had induced their i'm
migration to the United States.
after careful review of all the evidence
received the conclusion is reached that the
appellants have not sustained the burden of
proof resting upon them, and that the Steu-
ben Glass Works has not shown that 1t
has used that degree of diligence in en-
deavoring to find labor of like kind in
the United States which alone can justify
them in importing labor from abroad.
1.-THE decisions of the boards of special in
quiry have, therefore, been affirmed in all
the cases, and the immigration officers have
been directed to enforce the orders of ex-
clusion.

ment Of Christmas Tree.
pecial Correspondence Of The Evening Star.

Special Correspondence OF The Evening Star.
ANNAPOLIS. Md. December %, 1903.
1t was announced today that there would
be no Christmas tree at the chapel of the
Naval Academy this year for the reason
that there are not enough children among
the officers families to warrant the enter
prise. On former occasions it has been
customary to have a treat for the Naval
Academy children. at which Christmas
tree was always a conspicuous feature.
The Lucky Bag" the annual publication
Of the first class of midshipmen, made it's
appearance today. The book Is gotten up in
handsome style and Is embellished with
handsome engravings including cuts of all
the members of the first class 1t is dedicat-
ed to the memory of Reginald Thorne Car
penter. deceased first class midshipman,
whose death occurred about year ago.
Yesterday the names of eighty privates
of marines were read out at the Naval
Academy barracks together with an order
that the men have been detailed to leave
for Philadelphia as part of a battalion that
will leave shortly for Panama. The detach-
ment will be in charge of Capt. Breekin-
ridge.
Lieutenant Commander G. NJ. Stoney, In
charge of the Naval Academy brig" Santee.
has provided a Christmas tree on the old
ship for the children of the men in the
service here. An entertainment will be
given on the Santee on Christmas eve.
The young student officers and the nom
commissioned officers at the marine bar
racks received practical instruction In the
mechanism of the modern field pieces at the
Naval Academy this morning.
Beginning tomorrow the student officers
at the marine barracks will abandon their
temporary quarters in Annapolis and will
take up their permanent residence at the
marine barracks in the Naval Academy
grounds. A daily routine, somewhat similar
to that observed by the midshipmen at the
academy. will be established at the bar
racks.
Lieut.. Kilgore, U. 9. Marine Corps, has
reported for duty at the Naval Academy
marine barracks.
Twenty marines from Newport, r. J.,
arrived last night at the Naval Academy
barracks. They were sent here because
of the crowded condition of Newport bar
racks, there being ample room at the
Naval Academy.

TO MEET CHRISTMAS RUSH.
Extra Facilities Provided for Public in
Post Office Corridors.

The Christmas rush at the post Office has
set in and the employees have their hands,
actually and metaphorically, full. In order
to meet the extra requirements of the occa-
sion Postmaster Merritt has had several
tables, equipped with facilities for stamp
ing and addressing packages and letters, in
stalled in the corridors. with clerks in at
tendance to look after the wants Of the pub
lie.
On the tables in the front corridors are
letter scales by which the deft clerks quick
ly tell the amount of postage required, thus
relieving the man at the stamp window,
whose time Is fully taken up with the sale
of stamps. By this simple system the ca
pacity of the office is more than doubled
and the public benefited accordingly.

lieved that the road would pay in a short time as it would have the hand ling of thousands of cars of wood be- sides the ore and machinery that would be brought in and out. It would bring the trade fthe Harshaw and Washington camps to this section instead of going around by way of Crittenden and Patagonia oo the No gales road as a good wagon road could be built from the Montezuma anyon to the former places.
 MT. Baron stated that his company expected to increase the force of men there as soon as the property was opened up so that the men could work to an advantage. The character of tn ore being mined there is mostly of a sulphide, while some oxides are found. With the present price of copper, lots of the better grade of ore taken out could now be shipped to the smelter at a profit.
Bisbee daily review., 1903-04-02


 During the year a large amount of money has been spent il development. The two compartment shaft has at tained a depth of 5O5 feet, and would have been much deeper but for the fact that water was encountered at 5e5 feet and proved to be of such vol tune that sinking was necessarily dis continued until pumping p ant could be installed to handle the flow Of wa ter While the water has caused a cessation of work in sinking. pending the arrival of the pumps, still the man agement was delighted at this sudden appearance of the water, for it means that change of formation has been eu- countered and will also enable the ir- stallation of steam power.
 A first-c' ass pumping plant has been ordered. including two 150 horse pow CT boilers, a sinking pump and sta ton pump, which will pump 150 gal Ions per minute and raise same to a height of 500 feet. A station ir the shaft is nox being made for this pump and reservoir and grading for the boilers is being carried on. As il takes considerable time to get equip ment after it has been ordered. everything is being arranged so that the plant can be set up and put in working order as soon after it's arri- val as possible.
 The next two hundred feet in depth il this shaft will be close'y watched as il is known that the formation has changed, being much softer and 1t is in the softer ground that the ore bod ies of this district are found.
