DEPARTMENT SUSTAINED.
John Turner Held to Be Liable to Ex-
clusion as an Anarchist.

In the hearing before Judge LacOmbe
of the United States circuit court for
the southern district of New York upon
an application for habeas corpus to dis
charge from custody the alien John Turner,
who had been arrested by the United States
| immigration authorities and held for de-
portation on the ground that he was an an
archist, the court held that the board of
special inquiry provided for in the immigra-
ton act of March 3. 1903 having examined
into the facts and decided that the said
Turner is an anarchist, such decision was
not open to review by the court
1t was contended by Turner'S counsel that
the said act, Or so much of 1t as related to
the inclusion of anarchists within the class
es of aliens forbidden admission to the
United States, was unconstitutional, be-
cause, among other things, 1t was an
abridgement of the freedom of speech"
The court denied the correctness of this
view, holding that the inhibition against
laws abridging the freedom of speech deals
with the speech Of persons in the United
States and has no bearing upon the ques-
ton of what persons shall be allowed to
enter therein.
AS authority for this decision the court
quoted the language laid down by the StA
preme Court of the United States in the
Ekiu's case Q42 u. s., $50, in which it was
held to be IAN accepted maxim of inter-
national law that every sovereign nation
has the power as inherent in sovereignty
and essential to self-preservation, to forbid
the entrance of foreigners within it's do
n1inions, or to admit them only in such
cases and upon such conditions as 1t may
see fit to prescribe
The court directed, inasmuch as counsel
had intimated an intention to take an ap-
peal direct from his decision to the United
States Supreme Court, that the said John
Turner should remain in the custody Of the
commissioner Of immigration at Ellis
Island.
There were some other views of counsel,
which Judge Lacombe dismissed with the
general statement that the points involved
had been decided adversely to such Views
In the earlier decisions Of the courts.
The position of the Department of Com
Tnerce and Labor through its bureau of
immigration. was sussaiaed at all points.

PAY TRIBUTE TO LLOYD.
Four Thousand Listen to Encomiums On
Life of Labor Writer.

CHICAGO, November 3o.-Tribute to
Henry Demarest Lloyd and the work to
which he gave his life has been freely given
in A great mass meeting at the Audito-
rum. Every phase of the activities of the
writer and thinker was taken up, and in
each was found by the speakers new evil
dence of his Ioftiness Of character, correct
ness of Judgment and soundness of reason.
The words of appreciation had added
meaning from the fact that those who ut
tered them had been closely associated
with Mr.. Lloyd and spoke from personal
knowledge and experience.
From Miss Jane Adams and Mayor
Samuel L. Jones of Toledo came indorse-
ment of the abstract sociological and ethi-
cal doctrines advocated by the reformer.
From John Mitchell and Clarence Darrow
came acknowledgement of the concrete
good wrought by the practical application
of these ideas.
Others who addressed the gathering
touched on other traits OF Mr.. Lloyd. Ed
win ID. Mead of Boston lauded his con-
structive ability in refutation of the charges
of some that he was merely a critic
Mr.. Mead quoted the opinion of Robert
Louis Stevenson. who wrote that Mr.
Lloyd had not three peers in America in
his command of the English language.
a delegation from the anthracite miners
of Pennsylvania was present. Four thou
SAND persons were present at the meeting.

NOT DEEMED LIKELY
INVESTIGATION
OF THE POSTAL FRAUDS.
Representative Payne, Republican
Leader in the House, Sees No Need
st for Further Inquiry.

The publication of the report OF MI
Bristow the fourth assistant postmaster
general, regarding the post ONCE tfauds
and graft attracted a good deal OF atten-
tion at the Capitol this morning. Many
Of the prominent men of both parties are
absent from the city, however, and their
views as to the effect of the publication
could not be learned.
AS to the possibility of congressional
investigation there was some division OF
opinion While 1t is, of course, certain
that the committee onspost ofacas and
post roads of the House Of Representa-
tives will consider and possibly act upon
the scandals unearthed during the past
wear. there is much doubt as to the or
dertng of a special investigation by Con-
gress. 1t would seem rather that what
ever action is taken will be based upon
the facts discovered by the department
officials and already placed before the
public.
It is the opinion of many of those who
have read the Bristow report that con-
gressional investigation would simply be
going over the same ground to reach the
same conclusion.
Representative Payne of New York the
republican floor leader, read the report
with interest.
Il don't see the neeQ LOT any IuTlHeT III
vestigation," he commented "They seem
to have found out down there already
good deal more than two congressional
committees did. The thing seems to have
been pretty we'll sfted
Other republicans did not appear to be
wrought up over the report, nor to view as
probable a congressional investigation.
A Democratic View.
Representative Thetus w. Sims Of Ten
nessee a stalwart democrat, declared that
the republicans would probably use the
Bristow report to stife congressional in
vestigation, which might lead to some still
more interesting revelations.
The general feeling among, the majority
is one of complete confidence in the ability
of those who have handled the investigation
thus far. They contend that through the
energy of the President and the employ
ment of the best men in the secret service
of the Post Office Department the Bristow
investigation has been far more complete
and fruitful than could have been any con-
gressional inquiry.

MUST GIVE ASSURANCES.
Otherwise the San Domingo Govern
ment Will Not Be Recognized.

1t is learned that the instructions to Min
lister Powell to govern his dealings with the
provisional government of San Domingo
are such that he will absolutely refrain
from recognizing that government until he
has had proper assurances that the inter-
ests of United States citizens shall not
suffer from SO doing. Therefore, he will
make sure that the arbitration of the
claims against San Domingo of the San Do
mingo Improvement Company shall follow
the program arranged between President
Wos Gil and Minister Powell. Mr.. John
Bassett Moore has been looking after the in
terests of that corporation at the State De-
partment and has received assurances to
that effect.

pleasure, and loan became possible upon
the birth of an heir, but 1t was blocked for
nearly seven years by members of the
