IN MIGRANTS INSULTED.
Je1cish Passengers Protest against
Treatment of Their Race.

Municipal Court Justice H Joseph and other
well known Jewish citizens. together with thirty
first class passengers aboard the Bleucher. of
the Hamburg American Line. which locked
yesterday made formal protest to the COM
pany against the treatment of a Jewish immi-
grant in the steerage during the voyage The
protest. drafted in the form of a resolution.
presented to Julius Meyer manager of the Ham
burg-American Line, who happened TO be at
the pier when the liner locked.
It appears that during the voyage an aged
Jewish immigrant was praying in the steerage
A boatswatn him at his devotions and ridi-
culed him, accompanying the ridicule with in
sulting epithets- The ships cook who is of
Hebrew origin. overhearing the boatswains re-
marks. protested. The boatswain is said to have
told him to keep inside his cabin.
1t is alleged that the boatswain continued his
ridicule OF the Hebrew at every opportunity
One day the cook rushed out and struck the
boatswain a terrific blow, staggering him. The
boatswain struck back. and both fought vigor-
oUsly until separated The affair reached Cap
tain G. Reessngs ear but he paid little at
tention to il.
Later, when the boatswain persisted in an
noying the Jewish immigrants a committee of
the Storage passengers sent for him He heard
their protest but it is said the boatswain still
persisted in his abuse
The affair finally reached the ears Of the first
cabin passengers. among whom were Justice
Joseph R. Krakauer. DR.. Fischowftz H s
Mach and H. Oppenheimer. Justice Joseph who
was particularly indignant at the treatment
corded the aged Jew, with the others, instituted
an investigation. and found. they say, that
Jewish immigrants subjected TO ridicule on
every ship, especially those travelling by
steerage.
AS soon we heard of this Infamous treat
ment- he said, I'VE went to the captain and laid
the case before him. It did not reach our ears
until we We're nearly home, but we lost no time
in taking action. We notified the captain and
he said he would investigate. But want tn e
com pany TO know what's going in the steer
age, and for that purpose we drafted a resou-
ton protesting against the annoyances our CO.
religionists subjected to in the steerage"
When Mr.. Meyer heard of the incident he as
sured Justice Joseph he would make rigid IN
vesugation. He will ask Ca plain ReeSsing to
explain why immigrants should be annoyed He
assured the committee that he would notify the
German Consul at once, and have him take any
action he At in the matter.
