NAGEL TO PROBE ROW IN

Secretary OF commerce dno Lapo'
May Make Charges on Pacific
Coast "For Good Of Service.
WASHINGTON, July 25.-The i'm
pending shake-up In the immigration
service on the Pacific coast is expect
ed TO take place when Secretary Nagel
of the department OF commerce and
labor returns from Alaska, according
To statements made at the immigra-
ton bureau here today. He Will VISIT
the immigration stations along the
coast and 1t Is probable that some
changes in the personnel may be or
dered by him while on the ground. He
intends 70 settle the long standing
row in the case OF Commissioner OF
immigration North at San Francisco
and "some removals, for the good OF
the service" are deemed necessary to
bring about a settlement Il Is certain
that the changes will be made.
Charges now before the department
having been preferred against North
ty immigration Inspector Ainsworth
are the result OF trouble over the ad-
mission OF Hindus at San Francisco.
Ainsworth. when the Hindus arrived
at the oort, was serving on the board
of special inquiry. The board by a
majority vote, decided TO admit the
Hindus.
Ainsworth disagreed and appealed
the case to Washington. The appeal
was forwarded by North without COM
ment. The department sustained
Ainsworth on almost every case and
oyerruled the board and North, who
had, passively taken sides with the
majority.
The incident made a little bad
blood" between North and Ainsworth.
Then followed charges which were
not confined to the Hindu cases, but
accused North Of general unftness for
his position and laziness In admins
tration. North has charge OF the dis
trict OF California. II is considered
probable here that Chinese influences
may have had much to do with the
opposition against North.
