Agreement Broken.
(By the Associated Press

Washington. Oct. 19.-Evidence has been
collected by the Bureau of immigration,
Department of Commerce and Labor, of
a systematic and extensive violation of
the contract labor law. Commissioner
General F. F Sargent has submitted the
evidence to the Department of Justice and
has requested the attorney general TO
institute proceedings against the alleged
violators of the law.
The case in hand involves hundreds Of
men, many of whom already are III this
country. Others are enroute to the United
States and expected to arrive In few
days. Forty men who arrived in Phlla-
delphia yesterday on the steamer Haver-
ford, are being detained as contract Ia
borers and many Others are expected on
steamer of the White Star Line. due at
New York in a day or two.
The men are WEIGH coal miners and

legged agreement to work for the Ellsworth
Coal Company, of Ellsworth, Pa. They
We're induced to come to this country by
firm in Ponty Pridl, South Wales.
The situation of some of the imported
miners is serious. Many of them have
requested the Bureau of immigration TO
! send them back to Wales, as they say the
agreement under which they came here
has not been kept. A majority of the
immigrants were obliged to sell their per
sonal effects to obtain money with which
to come to the United States, and a few
of them were induced to dispose of places
of business, which previously had enabled
them, in part, to support their families.

Morley, addressing an audience which fill
ed the large edifice to its full capacity,
aroused immense enthusiasm by an elo-
uuent and spirited attack on the new pol
icy, against which, he declared, he was
arrayed with the whole weight of au-
thority, both practical and theoretical. So
crude raw and unthought out were the
proposals launched in this country that
men of all parties, Liberal and Conser-
natives, were united in opposition to
them.
The country, continued Mr.. Morley had
been invited to put its ancestors, like Cob

Golden and Bright had been as to free
trade, the French treaty of 1860, the
Crimean War and the American War,
he was not going to apologize for them.

Secretary T. X. Bruner, of the Depart

1.-THE buildings are about completed.
All of the main exhibition buildings may
be called finished, while work is pro
crossing very rapidly upon the English,
Canadian French, Chinese, German, jap
anese and Philippine buildings, and also
upon a large number of State buildings.
Preparations are being made for North
Cardinals participation in four of the
great buildings, to wit: Agriculture, Hor-
ticulture. Miners and Metallurgy and For
estry, Game and Fishes. In each of these
an effort will be made to place North
Carolina in the best possible location
with its superb collections, the nucleus OF
which will come from the State Museum,
but which are being materially added to
in order to bring them up to date
'"To give some idea of the rush for
space it may be said that at the great

applications are on file for space enough

that in this one building will be seen not
