RESTAURANT KEEPERS CLAIM
TO BE LOSING MONEY.
BOOZE BARRED BY CONGRESS-

Special 20 The HeralJ)
washington, FEB. 2S.-Although the
f'foprietOrs of the senate and house
restaurants are furnished free rent.
Tree fuel, free light. and are paid sala-
Tles and allowed all the profits OF their
restaurants, ti5ey complain that they
lose money every week. This is due to
1he fact that they are not allowed to
sen liquors or beer or intoxicating
drinks of any kind.
Senate Called the Bluff.
The history Of the present prohibitory
law - somewhat interesting. For sew
eral years only beer and light wines
were sold IN the senate restaurant.
Whlie on the house side liquors Of all
kinds We're dispensed. Annually the
mouse passed g Prohibition provision ia
some one OF the appropriation bills, and
annually the senate struck il out But
last year, when the house passed a
provision in the immigration bill pro-
hloiting the sale Of liquors in the CAPT
tol, and went on record for TEMPERANCE
reform, the senate called the bluff and
Jet the provision stand. The reform
has been one in fact as well as in name.
Disgraeeful Scenes.
When liquors we're sold in the capitol,
disgracefuI scenes Of drunkenness were
f+NtAN7H7-NA "a ~ sAEsiAAAF EHfttIAdAlN NtAtAl
night sessions We're held or at the close
OF congressional sessions. Employees
OF the house and senate. young men,
and frequently members of the con-
gress, drank TO excess, and the house
restaurant on the. occasion OF the clos
ing Of congress resembled a disorderly
beer hall. Since the sale of liquors has
been prohibited none OF these disgrace
Jul scenes have been Witnessed, and
respectable.
The restaurant proprietors think they
see in the near future a loOphole by
which the law may be evaded. The
new structure which is TO be erected for
the use Of the house as an Office build
ing IS 10 have q large space allotted for
restaurant purposes. and The restaurant
proprietors contend that the present
prohibition applies only TO the capitol
building. and the sale of liquors may be
conducted in the new building. This is
q matter for future settlement.

Washington, FEB. 2S.-The report Of
the special commission appointed by
the president on Sept. 16 last to inves1i-
gate the conditions existing at the FL
lis island immigration station, New
York, was made public today by the
secretary Of commerce and labor. to
whose department the matter was re-
ferred by the president. The report
says in effect that chages or criticisms
made against the management are not
sustained. except in the instance of
overcrOwding, which. il is said, is due
TO the lack or facilities and lack of
room The charges were made by
reporter of the Stats zeitung, pub
Iished at New York City, who had
been a representative of that news
paper at Ellis island Tor many years.
Public Hearings Held.
The commission held many public
hearings and did not cOnfine itself to
calling those who desired 10 testify.
but personally made inquiry of those
whose intercourse with the station pre-
sumabIy gave them an opportunity OF
supplying reliable Information. The
managers of various benevolent socie-
ties all testified. under oath, that there
was 10 ground for complaint as 70 the
treat ment Of the immigrants, and the
commission accordingly declares hat IT

st. Petersburg, Feb. zS.-The rules OF
war were published officially tonight.
An august decree has been referred to
the ruling senate by the ministry Of
justice for the laying down Of the rules
which Russia intends to follow during
the war with Japan. The original draft
OF these rules was endorsed BY the czar
With the words: 1T must be so.
According to rule one, japanese sub
jeets viii be allowed during the war 20
remain IN Russia under the protection
of the law, and will be permitted TO
living in the east under the jurisdiction
Of the viceroy are excepted.
Rule two declares that japanese mer-
chantmen which were in Russian ports
when war was declared will be permit
ted TO remain there, but they must
leave when they have loaded their
eargoes. which must not include con-
traband of war. Sufficient time VIII be
allowed for loading, but in any case
these vessels viii be allowed rot more
than fOrty-eight hours after the pub
lieation of this proclamation.
Rights of Neutrals.
Rule three says that subjects Of neu-
trail states will be allowed to carry on
business 8ninterTuptedIy with Russian
ports and towns, provided they observe
Russian law and the principles Of in
terndtiOnal law.
Rule four points out that it is the
duty of the high military authorities to
take all steps to ensure the freedom Of
the lawful trade OF subjects Of neutral
states in SO far as their commerce is
permissible under the exigency Of war.
Rule five says that in regard to neu-
trail trade the following points must be
observed: (A) The flag covers the cargo
for a belligerent, excepting cOntraband
of war. OBJ Neutral goods under the
enemy's flag, except contraband of war.
are not subject TO confiscation. Co
BlOckades to be obligatory must be eff
fective, that is, they must BY sufficient
force cut off approach to the enemy's
territory.

More Buildings Needed.

The commission devotes some space
as to the adequacy. both IA admins
tratiOn and government, Of the build
ings used for the accommodation Of
aliens. and finds that certain changes
are Indispensable. 1t calls attention TO
the fact that as many as 1900 aliens
sometimes arrive at the port of New
York in a. single day, although the ca
pacity of the buildings viii not provide
for more than 5000 persons per day
1t also reports that the hospital build
ing is entirely inadequate; that 1t has
but 125 beds. whereas $50 are needed
The report states that the bed clothes
were not sufficiently disinfected, and
recommends greater privacy than is
now possible. The commission thinks
that the sanitary arrangements on the
island are imperfect and require i'm

Treated With Kindness.

The commission reports that the inn
migrant is not treated unkindly, out,
on the contrary, with every possible
consideration so far as the inadequate
facilities at Ellis island will permit.
It is said that the principal causes
for deportations are violations of the
contract labor law and the likelihood
Of aliens becoming public charges, the
proportion Of depOrtations for any other
cause being comparatively small.
Incidentally attention is called to the
fact that during the past year the ar
irving aliens exhibited an average of
$50 each, a total of about sis, 600 for
the whole number.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1904-02-29
Abundant Funds.

Calling attention TO the fact that 3
is paid as d head tax on each arriving
alien. of whom over SIS, 600 arrived dur
ing the last fiscal year, the commission
contends that the government has
abundant funds to provide suitable ac-
commodations to prevent the over
crowding Of aliens.
The report holds that the charge that
there has been improper detention of
large numbers of Immigrants for spe-
eial inquiry is unfOunded- IL says that
the charge that immigrants have been
refused permission to leave Ellis island
until their relatives are heard from is
true in so far as every effort is made
to protect immigrants from falling into
evil hands. The charge that there has
been depOrtatiOns of large numbers Of
immigrants who should have been al
lowed to land is not supported by any
evidence. the commission finding the
contrary to be the fact

Counsel for Mrs. Weinholz said later that the

daughters. The brothers were to receive their
shares at once. The daughters shares were to

sisters when they desired any money, would go
TO the brothers. and this was kept up for several
years.
In 1891. according to counsel the two brothers
made an affidavit 10 the city tax collector that
all the funds of the estate had been used up
In February 1905. a the instance of Mrs Vein

stated that the brothers admitted TO their sis

used almost entirely for living expenses, and
that some Of the money had been lost in the
commission business
