WILL SEND HIM HOME.
immigration officials Find Morris
Friedman Poor and Sick.

Morris Friedman. a Russian. fifty-three
years old, who came to this country sew
eral years ago with his wife and child
and for some months has been living at
9TH and D streets northwest, was taken
in charge last night under a liberal con-
struction of section of the immigration
act of February %. 1907, which provides
for the exclusion of certain classes of
alien immigrants. He is said to be a
consumptive and public charge, and
probably it is the intention to deport him
and his family to Russia.
He spent the night apart from his fam
lily in the witness room of the first pre-
cinct station house, and today steps will
be taken by Inspector George Baldwin of
the Immigration service. Department of
Commerce and Labor, to properly dispose
of the case.
1t appears that when Friedman came to
this country, several years ago, he had
considerable money, and. with his fam
lily, was passed by the immigra ton in
spectors. He conducted small clothing
store in this city until several months ago.
when the malady of which he is said to
be suffering compelled him to give up
his business and seek less arduous labors.
For some time past he has been peddling
collar buttons, suspenders, handkerchiefs
and other small articles from a bag which
he carried around with him, and it was
while engaged in this way that he was
apprehended last night on a warrant pro-
cured by Inspector Baldwin, who has
known of his case for several days
His family is said to be in absolute
want and abject poverty, and the man
himself, admitting the fact. expressed a
desire to be sent back to his old home
While the immigration officers feel GER
tain that Friedman was a victim of the
great white plague when he was admitted
to this country, it is said their present
action has been taken rather as. an act
of charity than otherwise.
