Fourteen of Them Who Have
Been Employed at Worlds
Fair Deported.
ALSO 232 CHINAMeH SENT AWAY
On Report Of immigration Inspector
Dunn Department of Commerce and
Labor Ordered Their Deportation.
The Case Has Been Pending For Sew.
srai Weeks and Hard Fight Was
Made to Induce tho Officials to
Allow Them to Remain.

washington, Nov. 1S.-On the report
of immigration Inspector Dunn, at st.
Louis, the department of commerce
and labor Thursday ordered the depor-
tation of IA Geisha girls and six Chi
nese who have been employed in a
concession at the Worlds fair.
The case has been pending for sew
eral weeks and hard fight was made
by the representatives Of the Geisha
girls to induce the government author
tiles to permit them to remain in this
country. It is said that on the state
ment of facts set out in Inspector
Dunns report the authorities could do
nothing less than order the deporta-
tion of the women. II is understood
that they will be deported immedi-
ately.
st. Louis, Nov. 1S.-Two hundred
and thirty-two Cinnamon who have
been connected with Worlds fair
concession since the opening of the
exposition, departed Thursday night
in eight special cars over the Wabash
railroad on their way to San Francis
CO, where they will sail for China.
They were admitted to the United
States under bond and Bertillion
measurements were taken of each
member of the party. In one Of the
cars accommodations we're reserved
for IA Geisha girls, who had also been
filling an engagement at the Worlds 8
fair. The Japanese were deported on
orders received from Washington on
Thursday, where the papers had been
sent after hearing before the local
authorities to prevent the girls from
being sent out of the United States.
There was considerable excitement
at the house where the Geisha girls
had been under guard by the federal
authorities for several months, when
the immigration authorities attempted
to escort them to the station. One of
the girls refused to leave her room
and it was necessary to carry her to
Hhe carriage. Just previous to the de-
portation of the Cinnamon an effort
WAS made to prevent them being ta-
ken away from St. Louis by habeas
corpus proceedings, secured in the
United States court, but the deputy
served 1t upon the wrong immigration
inspector, and before the mistake was
discovered the train bearing the Chi
namen and their guards had departed.
