MANY Chinese STRUGGLED IN
immigration Authorities Studying
the System.
Newfoundland and Canada Che Places
From Which Cinnamon Are Sent
Across tho Border-Big Traffic.

Washington, D. G. Newfoundland
as base of operations for SNUG
Cling Chinese into the United States,
in violation OF the immigration laws,
is to have the special attention Of the
3 immigration authorities, in view Of
the capture of the Cinnamon brought
into Providence on the schooner
F'rolic the other day.
For several months past the imni-
grafton officials have had reason to
believe that smugglers of Chinese
were unusually busy at that point,
and that the Asiatics were being
brought there on the theory that
they could thus be sneaked into the
United States with greater ease than
elsewhere, since the American Off
Gals along the Canadian land border
have proved themselves so vigilant
and since Canada has made the head
tax on every Chinaman brought into
that country $500.
Commissioned General Sargent re-
CARDS the capture of the Cinnamon
as an important piece of work, and
is prepared to direct most rigid in
vestigation of the circumstances in
connection with their smuggling in.
Though the bureau has had long ex-
perience with the ways that are
, dark" of the Chinese in their at
tempts to get into the United States
without proper authorization and
has intercepted many of them both
on the Northern and Southern bor-
ders in all sorts of Ciisguises, the re-
cent attempt of bringing them in on
yacht to New England ports is re-
garded as one of the most daring eff
forts to eircumvent the law ever
made
The department is anxious to de-
termine whether theexpedition of the
Frolic is part of well organized sys-
tenn by which Newfoundland is used
as centre of activities for shipping
Cinnamon into the United States in
large numbers, and if so to prevent
any future efforts of the kind. Most
of the attempts to smuggle in Chi
nese have been made on the Pacific
coast Of Canada, where the officials
had great trouble in breaking UP the
trade, but succeeded in doing so by
alertness on the part of the agents
and by an arrangement with the
steamship companies which requires
that Chinese brought to Vancouver
destined for the United States must
be brought under bond and deliv-
cred to immigration officers at the
ports of entry There is reason to
believe that the Cinnamon on the
Frolic were brought from Liverpool
across the Atlantic instead of by the
Pacific route. and in this case it is
believed an arrangement may be dis
closed whereby regular shipments
are being made to Newfoundland
with smugglers operating from that
point as a source of supply.

orders that while he was engaged in
the preparation of his sermons his
young son must be kept reasonably
quiet. In spite of this, however,
there arose one morning most as
tonishing noise of banging and ham,

that the steam-heating pipes were
being knocked to pieces Hurrying
out of his study, the minister en-

Chicago. Building Commissioner
Bartzen compelled Nelson Morris &
Co. to agree to carry out his orders
for changes at that packing plant.
The Commissioner had ordered that
certain changes be made in twenty
eight buildings connected with the
plant, in order to conform to the
building ordinances, but was in
formed that no changes had been
made.
Mr. Bartzen directed that force
of inspectors and police be at once
sent to the stoclxyards to close all
buildings in which violations of the
law were discovered. The first
places visited by this force were the
butterine factory and the tin shop.
Policemen were stationed at the
doors of both buildings and ordered
to keep all persons out. Employees
inside were not molested, but all of
those who had left at the lunch hour
we're turned away when they tried to
return.
The policemen said that they would
remain at the doors until fire escapes
ordered by the Building Commission
er were placed on both structures.
The managers Of the firm capitulated
after this policy had been enforced
for an hour, and agreed to obey or
ders. The guards were then with

A laborer at the coal pockets, Earl
Rush, stumbled onto two sleeping
Orientals ON the wharf Soon eigh-
teen Cinnamon and three Americans
who were engaged in the smuggling
were under arrest, and from the lat
ter the immigration authorities OBJ
tanned more information about the
smugg1ing of Chinese into the United
States than their secret agents he'd
been able to learn by months of in
vestigating.
Many interesting details of the IL
legal business were disclosed, verify
in- the suspicion of the authorities
that it has been carried on for long
period with great profit. The usual
route was by way of Newfoundland
and New England ports, and the as
sertion was made by one of the
smugglers that the authorities at
landing places in the United States
were fixed Sometimes, it was
said, Chinese were taken from Mexico
and West Indian ports to Canada and
then brought into the country
through New England ports.
John c. Lehnemann, of Boston,
who is q prisoner, told the police that
he usually managed the landing of
the Chinese after his brother James
had seen them safely off from Cana
dian ports.
When Rush, the coal pocket en-
ploye, stumbled over, the men asleep
on the wharf and discovered that
they were Cinnamon. he was about
to eject. them from the premises, he
says, when some one on the schooner
'cried out "Don't bother those fell
lows | will look after them" Rush
than informed the police, and the
Chinese were captured.
The only persons on board when
the authorities reached the boat were
two sailors who were sleeping in the
forecastle. The vessel was confiscat-
ed by the Government officials, and
the sailors were arrested and brought
ashore. They gave their names as
Edward Junkins, of South Boston.
and William A. Duncan, of Somer-
Vile.
The Frolic had every appearance
of having undergone exceedingly
heavy weather. Her bowsprlt had
been carried away. 1t is believed Ly
the officers that the break of the bow
spirit made it precarious to remain
longer at sea, and that the COM
mander of the yacht decided to make
a bold dash forport.
