PLOT TO SMUGGLE IN
IMMIGRANTS AIRED
Diseased Syrians Brought to
America Through Mexico
for Cash.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1s.-Discovery
has been made by James r. Dunn, I'M
migration Inspector in charge at st,
Louis, of a wholesale smuggling of i'm
migrants from Mexico into the United
States, Every one of the immigrants
was barred by the law from entering
the United States because of trachoma,
a contagious disease Of the eyes. Of
ficias of the immigration service are
now engaged in locating the immigrants
who were smuggled into the country,
with a view to their deportation.
The case is interesting and extraor
dinary. A party of fifty Syrians ap-
piled for passage TO the United States
at Naples, Italy. Every one of them
and the steamship company refused to
accept them for passage to this coun-
try. They we're Informed that they
could go to Mexico and then 'work
their way" into the United States.
On their arrival In Mexico they scat
tered over the country for while, but
eventually reached the border near La
redo, Tex. They were smuggled across
the river above Laredo, the smugglers
receiving $l2 a head
The Syrians were peddlcrs and be-
gan immediately to ply their vocations
in this country, going from place to
place, thus becoming separated.
Inspector Dunn located q Syrian in
st. Louis named Shahadie Jacob, who,
he believed, was unlawfully in the
country. When he examined Jacob, the
man told q story about having been
landed at Philadelphia, but a little
investigation showed that that state
ment was untrue, Confronted with the
proof that he had not told the truth,
Jacob broke down and told how he and
his Syrian friends had been smuggled
across the Mexican border. Jacob gave
to Inspector Dunn all the names of the
party he could remember and officers
of the immigration service arc now
searching for them. Jacob is being
held for a time to assist in identifying
the other SYrians
