After committing the lad to Jail,
Captain Williams wired his people In
Cleveland to send afiidavits, showing
him to be all American citizen, in or
der that he may be released and allow
ed TO go home. The immigration i'll
spector received telegram from the
First National Bank of Cleveland, yes

draw upon that institution for the nee
cssary funds and send young Lyons to
Cleveland, but Captain Williams will
not release the boy until the afldavits
from his father arrive here II they
are not sent before the Rappahannocli
is ready to return to Liverpool the lad
will be sent back on her.
William Draper, the other stowa.
way, Is a native of England and he had
The passport and ticket of Arthur
Bruce. whom he tried to impersonate
and pass the immigration inspector.
Draper did not answer the description
on the passport, however. and he WINS
taken into custody by Captain Will
liams. He will be sent hack to Liver,
pool on the Rappahannock. Draper
later told Captain Williams that he
bought the ticket and passport from
Arthur Bruce. at Liverpool.
The Danish steamship Ekliptika.
