"H0 9koW0udW6y.
New York, May 5.---A newsboy wal
who has had two free rides across tn,
Atlantic is being held at Ellis island
by the immigrant officials. They have
been compelled to refer his case to the
department at Washington because IL
lacks precedent.
The lad, Samuel Mrganlander is Z
years old. His parents brought him
here from Germany and both father
and mother died some time ago. The
child made enough money by selling
newspapers to sustain life. About a
month ago he wandered aboard a
French steamer to get warm, and, Iy-
ing down In the steamer, fell asleep.
When he awoke the ship was far at
sea and he was ordered to get up FOR
his meal. Apparently the officers did
not discyer that the child was stow
away. At Havre he went ashore and
the United States consul general got
him a job In a restaurant until the
next French liner sailed. The vessel
brought him back, but he is destitute
and an alien, so the immigrant officials
held him up pending instructions.
