preme Court by Professor Charles Munter. of No
% West 45th street. restrain NJ. Angelo Elias,
lawyer, of No. IS Nassau street. from acting

grand master of Baron Lodge of the Order OF the
Free Sons of Benjamin. of which Elias is also a
member. alleges that Elias had been charged with
appropriating money belonging to the lodge. For
the purpose of covering up these charges he de-
clares Elias conspired with some members of the
Grand Lodge to have himself elected a delegate
from Baron Lodge to the convention of the Grand
Lodge which begins in this city to-day. This he
attempted to do, although no vacancy existed among
the delegates and although under the rules of the
order he could not be elected while charges We're
pending against him 1t is then alleged that he
called meeting of his friends of which the ma
jority of the four hundred members had no knON,l-
edge and that at that meeting he caused himself to
be elected delegate, against the protest of some of
the members present.
When Professor Munter heard of the action of
Elias, the officers of mis- lodge refusing TO take any
steps. he considered it his duty interfere House
Grossman & Vorhaus represented Professor Munter
in the action.

Nathan Blur argues Against Re
stricting immigration.

washington March 3-Nathan BLUR. president
of the New-York State Charity Conference and a
member Of the executive committee Of the United
Hebrew Societies, appeared before the House Com
,ntttee on immigration to-day, in opposition to
material changes in the present immigration laws
as proposed in q number OF bills under consldeTa-
ton by the committee. Mr.. Blur made an inter
esting regarding aliens in the charitable
institutions Of New-York. The general impression
seemed be, he said, that the majority Of aliens
who became public charges were newly arrived
immigrants Of the poverty stricken class. The fig
proved he said that 10 per cent Of the aliens
in charitable institutions were those who had been
here for several years and had failed to make g.
living.
There is no reason to be discouraged by the
present great influx Of immigrants into this coun-
try" said Mr.. Blur I'm the mass Of new people
who come to our shores there is much good ma
terial Experience has shown that members Of
the humblest class of immigrants that come
to America have risen to high stations, and there
have been men who came here under these condi-
lions who went to the forefront Of affairs 1t has
often been said that Benjamin Franklin would
have had a doubtful chance of being admitted into
this country under the present immigration laws
American Institutions is that our land is open to
the oppressed, and the restrictions should not be
made TOO hard
Mr.. BLUR said that the immigration flood had
retarded prosperity in NewYork State. The
price of labor has advanced 20 per cent, he said,
and immigrants had not hurt the labor market In
the clothing trade. where the contention is made
that native talloTs suHer because OF the IafSo
number Of Russian Jews who enter into coInpeti-
ton with them, Mr.. Blur said that the price OF
labor had gone up 46 per cent.
In 1900 our import n OF clothing from Germany
only 81. 900 worth That shows how we have
profited from this bountiful supply Of good work
men
Mr.. Blur said that he was not in favor Of an
increased head tax. The educational test, he said,
had great advantages. it did not prove the
individual capacity of the Immigrant; The test
should apply only in question of naturalization.
Mr. Blur said that the immigration laws We're
needed 10 shut out the bodily mentally and NOR
