tlon the sinple-mind youth admitted
that this story had been supplied to
him and added that it was false
In another room were two women
members of family. all i'll and with
out means. They had been sent to
America by relatives who believed that
the money invested in tickets would
be less than would have to be paid if
the family remained in Russia In this
same room were children who are to
be sent back because they are afflicted
with disease Of the eyes which is
now epidemic among New York school
children and which was brought to
this city by immigrants.
Allan Robinson, secretary to Com
missioner Williams, discussing the
battle that is being waged to keep I'M
desirable immigrants out of the Unit
ed States and the opposition that is
being aroused, said today:
There has been a great increase in
the immigration figures. This is due
to the effects of the steamship people.
They fear that the bill now before
congress will become a law, and as it
will exclude many classes that now
enter without opposition, agents are
working to drive into the United States
all who can raise the price Of "a pas
sage.
Under the stimulating influences
ship agents we are getting a much
poorer lot of immigrants than former
ly. 1t is necessary that the closest
kind of inspection be maintained, and
even when that is done it will be i'm
possible to keep out one-half of the
dregs."
While an anonymous effort is being
made to array some classes against the
immigration officials because of the
strict manner of enforcing the laws,
the United Hebrew Charities is pro-
testing against the Importation of
Hebrew -paupers. In a report issued
yesterday the society shows that there
have been 5000 new applicants for
charity during the last year from
among Hebrew immigrants. Of that
number 1886 became public charges
before one year had elapsed after their
arrival in New York from Europe.
In the report it is estimated that 10
per cent of the Hebrew immigrants
become paupers or semipaupers every
year. While this is admitted by the
United Hebrew societies a preamble
and resolutions are being sent to the
Hebrew societies and lodges in New
York from some unknown source. This
preamble and resolutions, after adop-
ton will be forwarded to President
Roosevelt and the members Of the
United States senate and the repre-
SentatlVeS In congress as protest
against the action of Commissioner
Williams, who is now excluding 1 per
cent of the total immigration, instead
Of the 5 per cent which becomes
pauperized even after being admitted.
The experience with the Belgravia is
taken by Commissioner Williams and
Of the per cent which becomes
his subordinates as indicating that
only a small fraction of those who
should be excluded have been driven
back to Europe.

LEeAciEs LEFT TO ANIMALS.
FavorItes Are Cared for After owners

Favorites Are Cared for After Owners
Have Passed Away.
One of the largest animal legacies ever
left by anyone was the 1900 bequeathed
by Mrs Lisetta Rist for the benefit Of
certain London bus horses. Under the
conditions of the will the interest was to
pc devoted each year to crawling certain
portions of the City road two or three
times day from November till April
Mrs. Rist, who lived in Islngton,s had
noticed in her Journeys to and from the
city the fortunes inflicted on the horses
by having TO drag heavy bus loads up
the incline III the City road in muddy
heather.
Some fifteen years ago an animal lega-
cy was the cause of a very remarkable
lawsuit 1t came about in this way: A
Mr.. Edmett left his servant Eliza Bob
pms by name. the sum of $3.50 a year on
condition thatzshe took charge and treat
ed kindly favorite dog. AT the time his
"Romp." "Ronp," however, died, and
was succeeded in his masters affections
by a dog called ''Sambo.''
On Mr.. Ednett's death Eliza who was
no great lover of animals, claimed the
$3.50 year, but totally repudiated poor
''Sambo" on the grounds that he was not
the dog alluded to in the will. Common
sense would seem to be against Eliza,
wise. and decided that she had a right
to the money for her own use. He added
the hope that "she would temper justice
with humanity to "Samb0."
A Mrs Bell, of Streatham, England in
1888, left the handsome sum of 1925 a
year solely for the keep of a favorite par
rot. 1t was stipulated that the parrot
was to be produced before her solicitors
four times a year "to. prove that it's
neck had not been wrung''
One Of the few men whose names are
to be found among the makers of animal
wills was a Mr.. Berkeley. He had dog
that once saved his life. Shortly after
wards the dog died, but her four puppies
were carefully kept by her grateful mas
ter. So long as he lived these four dogs
We're continually with him. and he left
a clause in his will instructing his execu-
tors to have busts of the dogs engraved

SPRAYED A KANSAS SENATOR.
Mr.. ingalls, Begged Protection Against
Vehement Speaker.


Senator SDooner told a story the other
day in which the late Senator ingalls, and
Senator Van Wyck of Nebraska. figured.
Van. WICK was. making one Of his char
acteristic speeches in attacking corpora-
tons. He had peculiar style of deliv-
cry, and as he warmed to his subject it
was his habit to move restlessly from
one side of the chamber to the other con-
tinually talking. He talked so fast that
he often "spluttered.'' and senators were
careful to keep out of range of the moist
IRE he missed through his closely set teeth.
Mr.. ingalls, and Mr.. Spooner once sat
directly in front of ''Mr. Punch as SEN
ator Van Wyck was often called. because
of his resemblance to that noted charac-
ter, when he was delivering an impas-
stoned utterance,- and an atom of spray
rested upon the hard of the Immaculate
ingalls,.
He adjusted his spectacles, carefully in
spected his soiled hand, and deliberately
sigraled to one of the pages to come to
him. Then in one of his famous whispers,
which penetrated the entire chamber. In
gals SAID:
