: D0CTORED UP
IMMIGRANTS.
A Special Inspector Says Dis.
eased People Are Sent to
This Country.
CURING THEM BIG INDUSTRY
DIR. Maurice Fishberg Says He Has
Seen Them Undergoing Treat
ment In Hospitals.

New York, Dec. lS.--That diseased
European immigrants are "doctored
up" in great numbers for shipment to
this country, is the charge made by Dr.
Maurice Fishberg of this city, spe-
clal inspector OF the immigration SER
Vice of the United states, who recent
~ returned from abroad. Or. Flshberg
spent several months in the old world,
visiting the European terminals of the
big Atlantic steamship lines. and
making a special study OF the shipping
Of Russian immigrants across the
German frontier. Most OF the things
which the doctor saw abroad are In
corporated in the report which he made
to the commissioner general OF Inn
migration at Washington, Dr., Flshberg
said yesterday:
The curing OF diseased aliens for
admission TO the United states has be.
come a tremendous industry abroad,
Ramifications Of the business may be
found at Liverpool. London, South
ampton, Marseiles and at various
frontier cities of Russia and Austro-
Hungary. In these cities ! have per-
called hospitals. where immigrants
suffering from trachoma in its most
advanced stages were being treated
that they might pass inspection and
enter the United States.
"Trachoma is a disease OF the eye
OF which America has special hor-
ror.
In Marsellles the treatment OF
trachoma has assumed remarkable di-
mansions. Here most Of the immigrants
from the orient, from syria, Armenia
and neighboring countries. come on
their way to the United States. Most Of
the immigrants report to man by the
name OF Anton Fares. who refers them
to certain clearinghouse, Later they
are sent TO DR.. G., Reynaut, 20 Boule-
varde d'Athenee, for examination.
Those who are found free from conta-
glous diseases receive tickets and are
al once shipped TO Havre. But as soon
as one of these orientals is discovered
to have trachoma. Fares takes hold Of
the unfortunate immigrant and says:
There are only two ways open TO You.
You can either 80 by way OF ST. Nal
zare TO Mexico, where l have agents
10 conduct you across the frontier into
the United States. or you can go to q
doctor and get cured. Now this plan
Is expensive and dangerous, but the
doctor is very successful
OF course the poor follow goes TO
the doctor. who by the way, does a
flourishing business.
The Russian Hebrew comes 20
America chiefly by way Of Germany,
either sailing directly from Bremen or
Hamburg, or going 10 England and
embarking from a British port. Little
is done at Bremen or Hamburg to
patch up immigrants, but at the sta.
tons along the Russian and Austrian
borders the practise IL common. In
most cases the so-called cure is only
temporary"
