KATzENBACH FOR
IMMIGRATION BILL
Jerseyman Represents Jr. o. U.
A. M. at Hearing Before
President Taft.

WASHING ron. Feb. 6.-When
President Taft gave hearing today
upon the new immigration bill he
also had before him protests from
Germany, Italy and the Netherlands
against the provision which author
ICES the secretary of commerce and
labor to place inspectors, matrons
anc public health service surgeons
aboard immigrant ships to report to
American immigration authorities
upon the condition and treatment of
immigrants en-route.
Another protest from Austria is
said to be OH the way and intima-
tions have been received that France
and England will join the protest.
All the protesting nations are said
to regard the provision as an in
fringement of their sovereignty over
their ships on high seas and impugn-
ing the faith of their officials in the
execution of the immigration laws.
Many prominent Jews arrived here
today to protest to the President
against certain features of the bill
President Taft heard the protest in
the east room of the White House,
where he sat at a large table stacked
with books and papers. He told those
appearing that he was virtually sit
ting as a judge.
Harry Oleson, chief justice of the
Chicago Municipal Court, represent
ing citizens of Scandinavian descent.
and also the Association of Foreign
Language Newspapers of the United
States. spoke in opposition to the
bill. 1t would draw, he said, immi-
grants from the big cities of Europe
and not the agricultural communi-
ties This, he contended, would
further congest the big cities of the
United States and that more would
attempt to come from abroad.
"More important than the literacy
test" he declared. lis the Wassel-
man test of the blood"
f. S, Katzenbach, of Trenton, N
j., representing the Junior Order of
United American Mechanics, said the
best argument in favor of the bill
was that the United States Senate
had four times within the last four
months passed the measure in some
form by practically two thirds
vote. He contended that it would
not keep out those persons who
would be desirable citizens, but
would bring in a very much better
class.
Representative Curley, of Massa-
chusetts, presented petition which
he said bore the signatures of 500.-
900 American citizens who opposed

COLLECT REFUSE IN
CITY BY DISTRICTS
That Is Contractor Marrone's
Plan for Equalizing Gather
ing of Garbage.

j. Milton Kennedy, counsel for Jo-
seph Marrone. who holds the con-
tract for the collection of garbage
in this city appeared before the
members of the Board of Works this
afternoon and submitted new plan,
which will equalize the collection Of
garbage throughout the city.
The plan was referred to Chief En-
gineer Morris r. Sherrerd for con-
sideration.
At present the city is laid out in
several districts and a collection
made in one district day. Two or
three of the districts receive more
attention than others. and Mr.. ken>
nedy's plan is to give each district
the same number of collections.
Commissioner Charles f. Kraemer,
in speaking of the matter, said:
Il would like to ask Mr.. Marrone
just what position he is in to carry
out the letter of his contract. We
have received word from the Board
of Health that his wagons are not
properly equipped for the collection
of garbage. OF course, [ believe that
leniency should be shown to new con-
tractors. but L also believe that the
$500 a day penalty for non-fulfillment
of contract be enforced

MR.. AND MRS. BEACH
TAKE STAND TO TELL
STORY OF ASSAULT
Negro, Both Repeat, Attacked
Wife-Case May Go to
Jury Today.

AIKEN. S. C., Feb. 6.-Frederick o.
Beach today related to a jury his
story OF the assault upon his wife,
with which he is charged. Then Mrs
Beach took the witness stand and
corroborated his story.
Beach did not depart materially
from the tale he has told since the
attaek-that his wife was struck by
a negro, when she went outside her
cottage with her dogs. He main
tanned his accustomed calm through
out the grilling cross examination to
which he was subjected by Prosecu-
tor Gunter. He contradicted himself
once or twice, but speedily corrected
his statements when reminded, and
apologized for his faulty memory.
Only once during the entire exam
ination did he show any signs of dis
turbance. That was when the prose
cutor asked him If he had not asked
his wife to LAY the crime to Pearl
Hampton's brother once when he
thought they were alone in the may
or's office"
"That is absolutely false" ex-
claimed Beach. rising in his seat.
Mrs. Beach followed her husband
on the stand to tell her story. She
wore a brown skirt and a low necked
white shirtwaist. Her plain black hat
contrasted strangely with her face,
flushed with excitement.
Mrs. Beach corroborated the narra-
tive her husband related She said
the negro had attacked her from
behind by laying his hands on her
shoulders and forcing her to her
knees. She said she was too terrified
to scream after the negro had struck
her on the side of the head with a
heavy stick. After she screamed she
heard the door slam and saw the
negro run as her husband came to
help her.

VALUABLE QUALITY TO HAVE
Man Who Can See the True Possibili- ties of Other Men Is the One
 That Succeeds.

Seeing" men is an art. It amounts almost to second sight. Often, in a business line" some man makes his way mysteriously and rapidly to the top, or near to it. He does not seem to have greater trading ability than many others, nor has he been favored by a larger capital or a more mag netic personality But he rises. His faculty of seeing men has been the magical force.
 It is no trick at all to discover the man who has triumphantly made a record, who is already a personality in this trade or that. Unfortunately, such a man is unfailingly costly. What he has done, moreover, is no positive guarantee as to his future ex- ploits. Men of great reputation as lieutenants many times prove great disappointments when they shift. The chief who sees picks a man whose reputation is yet to be made, and thereby gets the profit himself.-Har- per's Weekly.
