TO STOP WHITE
SLAVE TRAFFIC
IMMIGRATION COMMITTEE or
CONGRESS PROVIDES PENAL
TIES FOR PRocuRERS.

Washington, Dee. 1S-A bill i'm
posing Imprisonment and fines for I'M
porting women for immoral purposes
or harboring them was reported from
the immigration committee yesterday.
1t is intended to cover the ground of
Mr. Mann's white slave bill and pro-
hibits as a felony the procuring OF
transportation from one state to an
other for the use of persons travelling
for any lewd or lascivious purpose.
The interstate and foreign com
merce committee considered Mr..
Mann's BILL but it was not acted up
on. The democrats on the commit
tee have opposed the bills interstate
feature as an invasion of the rights
of the states to regulate their own
morals
The contention of the immigration
committee is that it, and not the in
terstate commerce committee, has
jurisdiction of the matter, was brought
up, but it was claimed that the bill
does not divest the immigration COM
mittee of its prerogatives. The i'm
migration committee in reporting its
bill, commends additional legislation
by the states and territories along the
lines of the Illinois laws. The substi-
tute calls for the deportation of I'M
moral aliens, the exclusion and pun
ishment of their procurers, and pun
ishment of. all persons trafficking in
immoral women, alien or native born,

Bluehelds, Dec 18.-Commande
Shipley of the cruiser Des Moines, on
authority of admiral Kimball, in com
mand of the American forces at Nicar-
aqua, issued a proclamation formally
stating that no fighting will be al
lowed at Bluefelds.
American Consul Moffat delivered
Shipley's message to Diaz, provisional
secretary of state, to be forwarded to
General Estrada. A copy was sent
General Vasquez, commanding the
Zelayan forces.
The proclamation quotes Secretary
Knoxs letter dismissing the Nicara-
guam charge and declared that fight
ing in Bluefields is prohibited because
American lives and property are en-
dangered.
Everybody here is praying the
American government to recognize Es-
trada's government as a means OF
terminating the struggle.
An Associated Press dispatch con-
tanned the first intimation of Zelaya's
resignation received here. Estrada's
advisers urge him to assure Vasquez
that it is useless to further resist. 1t
is considered here that this is the
moment for American
recognition of the insurgent govern

Plans for Confederation
Washington, Dec. 18.-Plans are be-
lieved to be afoot for the consumma-

trail American republics. Proof of this
is offered, according to Central Amer
lean diplomats, in the disappearance
of DR.. Anderson, special representa-
tive of Costa Rica and Mexico's can
didate for president proposed for the
United States of Central America.
Before going he had an interview with
Creel, now here as special envoy of
Mexico.
Central American diplomats fear
there may be a confagration if the
governments most interested in the
present situation interfere, with the
result that new organization will be
necessary all around.
1t is believed that Anderson hurried
south in anticipation OF such an even
tuality His friends insisted that he
had gone to San Jose for holiday.
Mexico is committed to the amalga-
nation of the five fiery isthmian re-
publics. The United States has been
shying at the subject and had no en-
thusiasm over such a consolidation.

NEW CUSTOMS FRAUDS.

Customs Weigher is Arrested on an
Indictment Charging Him With
Conspiracy to Defraud the Govern
ment in Connection With Importa-
tions Of Figs in 1906.
New York, Special.--A new series
IF alleged customs frauds was
brought to light here Friday with
The arrest of Thomas c. Giddings, a
customs weigher, on the indictment
charging him with conspiracy to de-.
fraud the government in connection
with importations of figs in 1905, Ac-
cording to the Federal prosecutors.
diddings underweighed two ship
nents of figs consigned to local I'M
porters, recording the weight of the
first shipment at 10000 pounds, in
stead of 10000 and defrauding the
government of the duty on $500
pounds of the figs contained in the
second shipment.
The indictment against Giddings.
1t is intimated. is the first of a series
which the government hopes to OBJ
tain from the grand jury now in ses-
sion as a result of following up Col
lector Loeb's investigations and dis
misSals.
Two more assistant weighers were
dropped by Collector Loeb from the
customs service Friday.
Mr.. Loeb announced that will,
these dismissals the general house
cleaning in the customs house as
the result of the investigation into
underweighing frauds had been COM
pleted. Some individual cases re-
manned, however, on which he might
find it necessary to take action, the
collector added.
Including Fridays dismissals, to.
tai of 83 men have been removed by
the collector since the work of re-
adjustment of the staff in the Gus
toms service began. The men dismis-
sed Friday were civil service appoin-
tees, and their successors will be
chosen from the civil service list of
eligibles.
The collector said he wished to cor,
rect misapprehension which appear
ed to him to be somewhat general, to
the effect that the civil service rules
had been disregarded in the dismis-
sails and appointments previously
made during the upheaval. This was
not the case, he declared, the civil
service rules having been strictly re.
garded and appointments of new men
in all cases having been made from
the civil service lists.
