ton authorities that the Japanese gov ernment is a party to this arrange ment as it has discouraged immigra- tion to the United States in every way. Thousands of Japanese labor CTS in Mexico are said to be merely awaiting an opportunity to cross the border.
 Efforts are now being made by the immigration authorities to establish a system of inspection by which it will be made difficult for Japanese or oth- CT aliens to get into the United States either from Mexico or British Cplum- bia.
 What is perhaps one of the most interesting sights to be witnessed in Mexico, is that hundreds of Japanese, turned tramps. making their way from points on the Manzanillo extension of the Mexican Central, along the rail road lines, bound for the northern bor- der. Along the line of the Central north and south from this city, scores of them can be seen from nearly any passing train. doggedly plodding along on foot, disdainful of the more speedy though more expensful method of travel in cars.

immigration Officer Catches Four Foreigners Taking a Short Cut Into Territory of Your Uncle Samuel.

At the present time there are lodged in the branch county jail at Naco four undesirable immigrants, who were caught by United States Immigration Inspector Jones several miles from the border city, after they had succeeded in getting a short distance into the territory of the United States-two of the men are Italians and the other two Montenegrans.
 Jones received a tip from one of the various sources of information the government has to the effect that four aliens were heading towards the in- ternational boundary line from Quay mas, intending to get into the United States, and that they were of the class which the last congress passed a law debarring.
 Acting on this information ths in- spector was watchful along the border and at last, late at night while riding across the desert came on four men with packs who tried to hide in some mesquite brush when they saw him approaching. The officer saw them in the moonlight and when he got up to where they were, ordered them to get out of hiding. Inspector Jones ques- llOntu lHSill, anu as lhSy SOuiu hAfiAS no satisfactory explanation of why they were heading into the United States at that hour from Mexico, without going through the formality of greeting Uncle Sam's representatives, he took them into NacO, where it was found that two of them came from the south of Italy and the other two from Montenegro. When they were search ed it was found they were all armed with murderous knives.
 The foreigners had been shipped in to Mexico for the purpose of working on the Panama Canal. but when they arrived in Mexico. succeeded in jump ing their contracts and getting to Guaymas. Only staying there long enough to get provisions, they struck out for the United States, the Land of Promise to all foreigners. These men
 walked every step of the way from the coast city of Sonora in remarkably fast | time, and when they were found were | in a lamentable condition. They will 1 be tried and probably deported.

ROCK ISLAND LEAVES
 1000 LOADED CARS
WithdraWS and Places Big Job On Shoulders of the
 Southwestern,

The mix-up between the Rock Is- land and the Fl PasO & Southwestern men over the matter of the formers coming down and running over the latter territory on the percentage bas- is, is not the only trouble that has arisen from the taking over of the Rock Island between Santa Rosa and Tecumcari by the Southwestern, according to a report from the latter place.
 The report is to thae effect that when the Tucumcari yards changed hands on the first day of July, the Rock Island withdrew, leaving over 1000 cars of freight on the South westerns hands, and as all of the old car clerks and yard force have been replaced by new men, there has been such a mix-up of these cars that it will take some time to get things strengthened out.
 The Tucumcari News, commenting on the situation says that most of the merchants of that place have been greatly inconvenienced by the mixed up state of affairs and there | is at least seventy-five cars for Tu- cumcari that are lost in the yards Some merchants have as many as ten carloads of goods which they are un- able to touch, according to the Tue umcari paper.
 Tucumcari is not the only town left in this condition, either according to the News, which states that all sta tionsl between that place and Santa Rosa are experiencing the same incon- venience.
 It is the opinion that the South western people thought that the Rock Island people would help them for a short time until the new men be- came broken in to the work. but this was not the case, and the new people are left with over 1000 cars in the yards, for which they have no bills and about which they have no know ledge.
 Some of these cars cannot be touched until a new set of duplicate cars bills arrives from Chicago, but this Is expected to arrive soon, as the Southwestern people are exerting every effort to straighten out the mix-uD.

SASSY JAPS ARE TH|Ck AROUND
 CHIHUAHUA
Arrogant and Seem Bound to Get Into the United States byI Hook or Crook, If 1t Is Pos Sible to Do So.

Japanese have been thick in this city for a week and more past, says the Chihuahua Enterprise. There has probably been no day during the week when there were less than 300 here. All were vending their way toward the United States and all that were turned back were about 50 which R. M. Dudley, the contractor who is building the extension of the Parral & Durango railroad. took down with him on Tuesday week to work on that road.
 A prominent railroad man who knows Mexico as few men do, was here some days ago and he was asked about the matter. In brief, he said: 'I think between 5000 and 1000 Jap anese have landed on the west coast of Mexico in the last few months. There are very few of them left in the south now, and they have all come north to get into the states.
 They will not work, and they are arrogant and cordially hated by the Mexicans. When they take jobs and are ordered to do anything they are really impndent in their manner, as much as to say: We licked the Rus sians and we can do the same to the rest of you"
 This railroad man says most of these Japs are ex-soldiers. and there are engineers and men of other pro fessions among them.
 For months the U. s. bureau of i'm migration has had inspectors in Mex. ico watching the trend of Japanese immigration. According to reports received at the department of com merce and labor, it is perfectly evi dent that hundreds of Japanese labor CTS who arrive in Mexico have no in tention of remaining in this country but regard it merely as a stopping place en route to the United States Testimony has been adduced by the immigration inspectors to this effect

ORPHEUM OPENS WITH CROWDED
 HOUSE
New Theater Starts on Its Career Under Most Propiti- ous ConditionS-Company Is Clever Throughout,

The opening of the new Orpheum Theater last evening was a success in every sense of the term, and judging from the manner in which the house was crowded, the cleverness of the actors, and the hearty and spontane- ous applause accorded them by the audience the future of the house is assured.
 The management of the Orpheum deserves great credit for their ef- forts to make the house comfortable and attractive, as well as for the good judgment displayed in handling the large crowd which thronged into the house last evening. When the time arrived for the overture last evening every seat upstairs and down was sold and standing room was at a premium, there being more than 1000 people in the theater
 The Frank Rich Musical Com pany," which played Tor a long time in Fl PasO during the past winter, and with great success, was retained by the local management to open the new house, and it was indeed a happy choice. Castles in the Air" a farce comedy in three acts was the vehicle for the contingent last evening, and judging from the merriment it pro voked as we'll as applause, it also was a happy choice.
 The play itself is the usual variety of farce comedy with a plot founded on the death of an old miser, and the supposed inheritance of his money by a nephew who is guaranteed to be fast and foolish. A faithful maid servant, however, is the beneficiary under a will which comes to light only to be torn up on account of her love for the pal of the rOue.
 Without a doubt Eddie Murray play ing the part of the would-be spend ihrift's ral is one of the funniest comedians seen in Bisbee for a long time, Tn a part which fits him eX- actIy, he uses slang with facility that leads one to believe it is natural, and in his various tender scenes with the serving maid. he provokes one roar of laughter after another by his funny gyrations. He sings several songs in q IIulf COLlllNdl llldltAS4 anu NtAAASNS well.
 The Sisters Kelcey are all clever. Franc Kelcey, in the part of the maid, shows histTionic ability of high order and in the two songs she sang, sup ported by the chorus, she was encOred several times. She has a good voice and a manner which is chic and pleas ing. Nellie and Kate Kelcey are also clever as they demonstrated in the singing and dancing speciality in which all three took part during the inter mission between the first and second acts. In the cast, however, these two young ladies did not have the OppOr tunity to display as much ability as their sister.
 The remainder of the cast including Eddie Mitchell, Chester Stevens, Paul Riebe and George Spaulding also made very good impression with the au dience.
 Taking the company as a whole il Is a strong one, and if the same stand ard maintained last evening is upheld | throughout the engagement of three weeks, there is no doubt but that the people of Bisbee will give the house generous support.

TERRIBLE WRECK SAD NEWS FUR
 B|SBEE
Two Brilliant Young School Teachers pNieceS of MT, and Mrs, Asa I, Hoy, Lose Their LReS>ln Awful Disaster.

Although the telegraphic dispatches published three days ago giving an account of the terrible disaster which overlook the steamer Columbia, on her trip between San Francisco and Portland, when she collided with an- other vessel and sank with many of her passengers, caused a shudder of horror in Bisbee, this shock was slight compared with the grief eX- pressed yesterday when it was learn ed that two of the most brilliant school teachers of Texas, neices of Manager Hoy of the Review and his wife, were on board the i'll fated yes sel, and are reported among the miss ing-the young ladies were the Misses Edna and Bertha Wallace of Austin, Texas.
 Never thinking of such a horrible fate oyertaking the young ladies, who were both delegates to the National Educational convention, which was held in Los Angeles, neither MT. nor Mrs. Hoy took any particular notice of the list of dead until yesterday, when it was accidentally learned that their relatives had been lost.
 Miss Edna Wallace was for several years an instructor in the schools of Fl Paso. and was considered one of the most popular as we'll as brilliant educators in the state. owing to her marked ability she was but lately elected to occupy the chair of Span ish in the University of Texas, one of the most responsible positions in the institution. She was also honored by the Fl Pasoans, who selected her to represent the city at the National Educational convention which was held in Los Angeles about a week ago.
 Miss Bertha Wallace was an in- structor in the schools at Austin, and was also elected a delegate to the convention on account Of her brilliant attainments. Leaving her home city she met her sister in Ei Paso. and together they went to the coast.
 After the adjournment of the con vention they decided to make the trlT to Portland, and were passengers on board the Columbia, which on last
