Perplexing situation.

Threatened with deportation unless
they marry, a young English couple
who came across the Atlantic ocean
posing as man and wife are detained 10
Philadelphia pending the result of an APP
peal TO the immigration Bureau at
Washington. The case is an interest
ing one, and strong effort is beng
made in behalf OF the couple. They ar
rived from Liverpool on the steamship
Westernland on Sunday, accompanied
by the Young woman's uncle and aunt,
Mr. and Mrs. John w. Fay, of New
York City, who had been visiting in
England. As is the case on most ships,
single men and single women are quar-
tered 10 different parts Of the Western
land, and as the young woman wanted
TO travel with her relatives, it twas agreed
among them at Liverpool that the young
woman was to represent herself as the
wife OF Hugh Stanton, mutual friend,
who also had engaged passage on the
steamship. No harm was thought OF
the arrangement, and it assured them
getting quarters together. During the
trip Mrs. Fay and her niece occupied
the same berth, while Stanton and Mr..
Fay slept together. When the vessel
reached Philadelphia, the immigra-
ton officials discovered the deception
ard threatened to deport the couple I'M
less they agreed to be married at once.
As the young woman is engaged to
marry young man who has arranged
to join her in America, and as Stanton
is also engaged to another girl, the sug-
gestion of marriage was rejected by both
of them. The immigration officials
would not relent, and fixed Saturday as
the day for the deportation. Mr.. Fay
Immediately engaged counsel, and yes
terday an appeal was taken to Wash
