Washington, May 1.-The passage of the naval appropriation bill today, the House went into the committee of the whole. to consider the so-called nat ii zuing order for two months.
 ''Naturalization is farce in this country said MT. Hepburn, of Iowa. In fifty years. he said, he had known but one refusal on the part of a judge to nat9ralize an alien; lien %It II. is sn noto- that courts admit men as a matter of course. The naturalization law Is lGokedsupon as joke"
 Mir. Hepburn was of the opinion that frauds in the issuance of naturalization papers were perpetrated in the state courts and not in federal courts.
 During. the discussion It was stated that State court judge in New York had naturalized 2.500 aliens in one day and that Judge P. c. Elliott of La Fayette. Ind. had been impeached for naturalization frauds.
 MT. Williams. of Mississippi, called the attention of the House D the sec ton making judges, Justices. clerks and officers and agents of State courts, when acting in naturalization matters. officers and agents of the United States. He insisted that the constitutions of some of the States. particularly .Vir- ginia, prohibited a judge, clerk of of- fIcer of the State from taking any emoluments whatever from the federal government and that the acceptance

Some of the schemes to Fool Investor Are Told.

Boston, May 17.-Additional cor respondence which passed between the defendant and persons connected in d business way with the Ubero Planta- ton Company were read today when the trial of Ferdinand E. Borges on the charge of larceny was continued in the superior court. One letter which had been written by E. l. Torres, manager in Mexico of the Ubero Plantation Com pany. expressed the writers dissatis- faction with the way things were go- ing in Mexico as we'll as his dissatisfac- ton with the affairs of the company In general. In a later letter Torres wrote Borges that it seemed peculiar tr him that everybody appeared to think that he was easy"
 .I guess I'll let you act the part of Ananias." Torres added.
 Several letters written in humorous vein by Manager Torres were read in which Torres commented upon the disa- greeable conditions of the plantation property in Mexico.
 Cass l.. Leavitt of Roxbury, who was employed in the Boston office testified that he went to a fruit store one day oId on Borgess. instruction bought two of the largest pineapples and shipped them to persons who had been inQuir- ing about the Ubero property and who later became investors. From the lit- erature sent with the fruit the recelv- CTS were to understand that they had been grown on the Ubero land.
