TO CHECK IMMIGRATION.
Labor Leaders Hope to Advise New
cOmers OF the Conditions Here.

Labor Leaders Hope to Advise New
corners OF the Conditions Here.
The standing committee on immigra-
ton Of the Central Federated Union,
appointed several months ago on the sus.
eestion Of Terence V. Powderly. chief
Of the division Of information OF the
immigration Department. discussed last
week a plan to be submitted to the execu-
tive council OF the American Federation
Of Labor by which the present immigra-
ton law shall be sustained and at the
same time steps be taken TO prevent any
advertising Of conditions in this country
which might lead to a rush Of immigrants
to thisc country.
The officers OF the American Federation
OF Labor agree with the Commissioner
General OF immigration, Daniel J. Keefe.
that it would be dangerous to follow Mr..
Powderly's suggestion OF making the
division OF information an employment
agency for immigrants, on the ground that
such representations might be made by
the shipping agents in Europe as to bring
men here in the belief that they we're sure
to be employed.
William A. Coakley, the secretary
OF the G. F. U. committee. said yesterday
that while the committee had partially
agreed on a plan which will be submitted
to the exeoutivacouncil Of the A. F. OF l..
when 1t meets here or June Is. he did not
care to say In Advance what the conclu-
sions OF the committee were.

When il was reported to Central Once
Detectives Kelly and Beck that an un-
known man with his skull fractured had
been taken unconscious from the gutter
in Chatham Square to the Hudson street
hospital early yesterday morning they
put on their hobo toys and spent some time
in the saloons along the Bowery. They
fell in with Percy Feeley. a cripple. said
to be a Bowery panhandler. After a few
drinks Kelly slammed a glass on the bar
and said:
"It's hell to have to blow the town. but
the bulls simply won't let us rest"
That's nothing, old top replied
Feeley. i've got to blow myself. and /

Stretched a fellow last night with my
crutch; but I had to. you know what I
mean.
That's how Percy O Bowery happened
to be arraigned In the Tombs court. He
admitted before Magistrate House that
he struck a man who had been taken to
the hospital, but he said it wal because
the man had tried to rob him Of a few
pennies he had begged.
The patient was unconscious all day
Yesterday and he may not live. Coroner
Acritelli's investigation leads him to think
that the man is Charles Loeee, a soldier
attached to Fort Hancock. The prisoner
was committed to the Tombs to await
the result Of the injury.

DIETZ TRUSTEES WIN.
Appellate Division Reverses Ordee Al
pointing q Third Trustee.

Appellate Division Reverses Order Ap-
pointing . Third Trustee.
The Appellate Division Of the Supreme
Court by a majority has reversed the order
Of the ~Surrogate's Court appointing the
Farmers Loan and Trust Company one
Of the trustees Of the trust estate Of How
ard j. Dietz. O of the late Robert E.
Dietz. the lantern manufacturer. The
application for the appointment OF the
additional trustee was made by Mrs.
Anna Dietz. widow Of r. E. Dietz. who now
has an action pending against her four
children 10 have declared void three
papers by which she signed away about
$500. 900 in dividends to her children.
Frederick Dietx opposed his mothers
application for the appointment of
to the influence OF her son Howard.
and declared that for many years be-
fore his fathers death Howard was
a constant souroe OF trouble, anxiety
and expense to his father and had been
ten times in institutions but was unable
to reform. Frederick declared that his
brother has been constantly complaining
that his income Of 1900 is not sufficient
and that he hopes by this means to get
moro.
The majority opinion. written by Justice
Ingraham. states that the application
appears to have been made for some
Interior purpose.
Justice Scott writes a dissenting opin-
ion, conCurred In by Justice Laughlin,
in which he says that the Surrogate had
full power 70 make the appointment and
that the higher court should affirm 1t.
He says:
There 10 no doubt that the appellant,
Frederick Dietz, has managed the business
with great success and his management
Is not called into question. 1t is true,
however. that for some reason his rela-
tons with his mother nave become I'M
friendly. Moreover the reh tons be-
tween himself and the sole surviving trus-
tee (McMillan) are such that the latter
has been practically excluded from pr
ticipation In the estate"

In the city proper the vote will be a majority of at least fifty against the amendment.

How to Get Rid
 of Catarrh A Simple Safe, Reliable Way and it Costs Nothing to Try.

Those who suffer from catarrh know its Ihiseries. There is no need of this suffering. You can get rid of it by a simple safe, inexpensive. home treat ment discovered by pr. Blosser, who for over thIrty-five years, has been treating catarrh successfully.
 His treatment is unlike any other It is not a spray. douche, saIve. cream or inhaler, but Is a more direct and thorough treatment than any of these It cleans out the head, nose. throat and lungs so that you can again breathe freely and sleep without that stopped-up feeling that all catarrh sufferers have. It heals the diseased mucous membranes and arrests the foul discharge, so that you will not be constantly blowing your nose and splitting, and at the same time 1t does not poison the system and ruin the stomach, as internal medicines do. If you want to test this treatment without cost send your address to pr. J. W. Blosser TYP Walton Street Atlanta, Ga, and he will send you by return mall enough of the medicine to satisfy you that it is all he claims for 1t as a remedy for catarrh, ca tarrhal headaches. catarrhal deafness, asthma, bronchitis, colds and all ca tarrhal complications. He will also send you free an illustrated booklet Write him immediately.
