SCULLY WROTE
TO PRESIDENT
Gave Taft Good Reasons for
vetoing immigration Bill

Congressman Thoni- j. Scully, of
South Amboy, was one of those who
did much in an endeavor to have
President Taft turn down the immi-
grafton bill which was vetoed by the
President last Friday. He sent MIR.
Taft a letter accompanied by a part
of the Century Magazine as Informal
ton for the executive why he should
not let the measure become a law.
The magazine section contained fac
SMILES of curious colonial sigma
lures of Virgininas found in the rec
ords of Essex County. Va. Congress
man Scully pointed to that as evil
denee why an educational test in the
immigration bill was unfair to
healthy, robust people who desired
to come into the United States. The
President received a bushel of let
ters and petitions daily prior to his
veto of the bill, both for and against
the bill.
Mr.. Scully's letter follows:
Feb. 10, 1913.
Hon. William H. Taft,
The White House.
My dear Mr.. President:
L DtS iSdN6 " SllClOSS utI TN d
part of the Century Magazine, May,
1912, which contains the signature
of Andrew Harrison, ancestor of two
Presidents of the United States;
Uphraim Magnify, whose son com
piled a standard reading book fol
grammar schools: Charles Gresham
ancestor of an illustrious American
family, the name of which graces one
of our torpedo boats; John Hender
son, ancestor of a former speaker o
the House of Representatives. ant
other fac-similies of the curiou!
colonial signatures of Virginians
found in the records of Essex Coun'
ty. Virginia.
If the present immigration bill was
upon the statute books two hundred
years ago the foundation of GU
great republic would have fallen tC
pieces. Is it not unfair to prohibi
the healthy. robust people who wisi
to come to the United States today
the fruits of whose labor will tend t
cement the activities of our great in
dustries.
In passing on the immigration bill
now before you, may I ask that yot
give this Information your kind con
sideration.
Respectfully,
THOMAS J.. SCULLY

over and over again, it is new to this
vicinity, this being the first occasion

presented it in this city. The Kovacs

drama in a masterful style. 1t is well
staged and acted and should prove an
interesting attraction this week at this
popular theatre. The country store

growing in popular favor as nearly all
the big audience remained. Many more

BOAT INVESTIGATION
QUITE SATISFACTORY
Secretary Redield Satisfied That Inspec-
ton in st. Lawrence River Will
Prove of Great Value.

Washington, d. c., Aug. 2.-Secretary
Redfeld, who is himself a practical mo-
tor boat owner and navigator and keenly
interested in both the commercial and
sporting development of motor boating
recently sent Navigation Officer Dry
den to the st. Lawrence to observe and
report conditions among the Thousand
Islands Capt Dryden spent eight days
inspecting boats of all types at Alex
andIia Bay, Clayton, Cape Vincent, 0g-
densburg, Morristown and thence to
Sacketts Harbor, Chaumont, Browns
vile, and Dexter.
He examined 20 vessels of all kinds,
and reported "a violations of the law,
among which, however, Secretary Red
field was gratifed to note only one boat
not equipped with means to extinguish
burning gasoline. One ferryboat was ar
rested for having an inadequate crew,
and large yacht penalized for failure
to blow her whistle while entering the
stream from the dock. Nine motor boats
had more passengers than life preserv-
ers, and eleven were defective in equip
ment of whistle, horn or bell; no side
lights were shown by ten motor boats
and twenty boats failed to show the
white light or lantern.
Secretary Redfield is satisfied that the
inspection trip of Capt. Dryden will re-
suit in safer conditions among the 500
boats in the region visited and that dur
ing the season, especially during the
coming regatta week, customs officers
along the st. Lawrence and Lake On
tario will be alert.

SENATE DROPS
MULHALL
Hearing Again Opens
With a Disagree
ment
QUESTIONS BY
MANUFACTURERS
All, However, Are Put by
the Committee to
Lobbyist

Washington, Aug. Gross examina.
tion of Martin NJ. Mulhall confessed
lobbyist for the National Association OF
Manufacturers, ended yesterday, before
the Senate lobby committee Mulhall
was excused until Monday, and turned
over to the House lobby committee The
Senate committee will turn next week
TO the files of the National Association
of Manufacturers, and an examination
of its officials.
The Senate committee started out
again with another disagreement about
the cross examination of Mulhall. After
an executive session the committee de-
cided that the attorneys for the Ma
tional Association of Manufacturers
should have an additional two hours to
examine the witness. The committee,
however, put the questions. The law
yers began to direct the inquiry to the
national council for industrial defense.
Mulhall previously testified that col
lector for the organization had told him
it raised between 100000 and 100000
for lobby work He stuck to his story
that the organization was solely a paper
one, and that officials of the National
manufacturers became members.
The lawyers worried Mulhall by ask
ing him about blacklist of congress
men put in the record two weeks ago
He could not explain the names of sew
eral Republicans alleged to have been
put on the list by the Republican whip
of tie House. When the committee
questioned him on claims in his let
ters about naming chairmen and com
mittees and placing friendly congress
men, the lawyers tried to pin him down
to direct answers on how he expected to
do those things. Mulhall said he was
not clear about it now, but thought At
torney Emery was to make the arrange
ments.
Apparent contradictions in MulhalPs
testimony about an alleged offer for his
letters by Samuel Gompers came up,
Once he swore he offered the letters to
the labor leaders and once he swore
Gompers tried to get them from him.
He finally testified that American Fed
grafton of Labor officials never offered
aim anything for the letters.
