1NvEsTIGATE KIDNAPPING.
Mexican Authorities May Be Asked to
 Return Prisoner.

Washington. July 5.-The Depart ment of Justice today at the request of the State Department directed the United States District Attorney for Arizona to make on investigation into the alleged Kidnapping from Douglas, Arlz.. into Mexico If Manuel Saravia. an alleged Mexican agitator. reported to have been connected with a MeXi- can newspaper published In St. Louis In the interest of the revolutionary party.
 The inquiry is taken at the instance of friends of Saravia but so far noth- ing has been heard from the territorial authorities. It is expected that the re- ported arrest of the Mexican consul at Douglas on the charge of being impli- cated in the Kidnapping may be made a matter of complaint, but 1t is said that his consular office exempts him from liability for criminal action on his part.
 If the facts are as alleged, it may be- come necessary for this government to request the Mexican authorities to re- turn thA kidnapped man to Arizona.

INUIGR4NTS ROBBED.
ErtOrtiOnote Sums Enacted to Take
Them to NearbY Places.

That extortionate rates for transportation to
such nearby places as Jersey City and West
chester being charged immigrants
learned yesterday from persons who are anxious
that the Wells bill to regulate East Side private
bankers and ticket agents shall soon be enacted.
The first Wells bill, to place the private bank
ers under a $4,000 bond will become a law on
September l, but the second bill, which provides
that only authorized agents of the steamship
companies shall do business, will come up for
vote to-day Tomorrow
Isadore Bader. manager OF the Immigrant Aid
Society, Of No. 232 East Broadway an organiza-
ton that cares for Hebrews said yesterday: Il
believe the Wells bills will do a great deal Of
good and there is every reason why they should
soon be enacted In our relation here to the
newly landed foreigner we have opportunities to
see how he is swindIed. We have had many
cases come under our notice where an immigrant
has been charged high as SIS for a subway
ticket. There was one case where an immigrant
was charged $50 for trip TO Jersey City. AS
far as we could find out, he had been taken
the elevated railroad TO The Bronx and then
back again downtown and over on a ferry. The
SWlnuler5 who work these games call themselves
public porters.' Our society devotes itself. in
large part, to helping the newcomers reach
their destination. We have regular messeng gers.
or guides, who take the immigrant to the place
he wishes to reach. The messenger must OBJ
tain receipt for the delivery of immigrant.
10 make assurance doubly sure, we give the i'm
migrant postal card addressed to us, which
he may write any complaint of overcharge or in
attention on the part of the messenger. But
our work is confined to Jews, and we know how
much some OF the other nauonaiities namely
the Poles and Greeks, need a protecting society"
Guido di Nincenzo. assistant manager Of the
Society for Italian Immigrants, at No. II Pearl
street, said that he had heard many complaints
OF swlndlins by bankers and ticket agents in the
italian quarter. He said that one reason for the
success of the Irresponsible bankers that in
Italy only persons authorized by the state could
set themselves up as bankers. The Wells bills
he thought, would make for equal security here.
