WOMEN IMMIGRANT INSPECTORS.
Five To Be Appointed at This Port to Break
Up Immoral Traffic.
TBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.

Washington Jan I2-New-York is to have FIVE
women immigrant inspectors, whose duty ii shall be
TO board incoming ocean liners down the Bay and
make q thorough canvass OF the female passengers
in the first and second cabins for the purpose Of
ascertaining the destination and intended voca-
tions this country OF young women who come
here alone. This is distinctly move in the direc-
tion OF preventing traffic in young women for i'm
moral purposes which recent investigations in
PHILADELPHIA and New-York have shown to exist
10 deplorable extent
Representation has been made to Secretary Shaw
that at present there is no way IN which first and
second class cabin passengers may be inspected
along what are termed moral lines Steerage
passengers are landed ct Ellis Island. where the
representatives. Of the various religious and other
organizations have opportunity 10 go among them,
and where women brought here under false repre-
sentation may be prevented from falling into the
hands of such agencies as have been shown exist
In New-York and Philadelphia. It is said that many
young women brought TO this country from
France and Germany under the impression that they
are to be employed domestics and in other occu-
pations but are really intended for immoral pur-
poses In order avoid possible detection at Ellis
Island these women have first and second cabin
passage and land in the city without detention at
Ellis Island. The National Womans Christian
Temperance Union has presented this condition of
affairs to Secretary Shaw with such force that he
has decided TO adopt the method suggested, and
send women inspectors aboard ocean liners down
the Bay, where the regular inspectors are taken
aboard In the run to the dock these women in
eTecrors will have ar opportunity make plain to
