IS TO Be DEPORTED
SeIf-StyIed Priest Turned Over
to immigration Authorities
by Judge MuI|owny.

JOIN vassilli. who claimed that he was
a missionary priest and by that plea OBJ
tained 81 from Rev. Mgr. Russell, pastor
of st. Patricks Catholic Church, 10th and
G streets northwest. was today brought
before Judge Mullowny in the United
States branch of the Police Court and his
personal bonds taken in order that he
could be turned over to the immigration
authorities to be deported from the
United States.
Vassilli was arrested about six weeks
ago by Detective Stringfellow of the
third precinct, following a complaint
made that a person impersonating a
priest was obtaining money by false
representation.
When arraigned before Judge Mullowny
Vassilli presented a batch of papers which
he declared showed that he had been sent
to the United States to solicit funds for
the erection of mission house in Tur-
key in Asia Minor.
Judge Mullowny learned from the Tur-
kish legation that neither the Turkish
minister nor any of the attaches knew or
had heard of the mission from which
Vassilli declared he hat been sent.
Arrived in U. s. January 6.
1t is stated that vassilli arrived in Port
land. Me, January q. in company with
several other persons from his country.
They declared they We're farm hands. All
of them. however. had sufficient funds
with them and they were allowed to leave
the immigration detention office Nassili
was for a time in Cleveland and other
cities before he came to Washington Ii IS
stated the immigration officials have To-
Gated two of the other men and they
also will be deported.
Vassilli told a Star representative to-
day that he had told the truth to
having been sent here a missionary
and denied he had made false representa-
tions.
An agent for the immigration depart
ment left Washington this afternoon with
Vassill for Boston. from where he will
be deported. The ship which he is
scheduled to sail for Liverpool is to leave
at 10 O'Clock tomorrow morning.
