The application TO admit Ciprano Cas-

pending a decision Of his appeal to the
Secretary Of Commerce and Labor against
the order for his deportation was denied
yesterday by Judge Holt, in the United
States District Court.
The decision Of Judge Holt seemed TO

Judge Holt But in my opinion no such

In denying the application Judge Holt

trust. The oil trust has had the advan-
tage of having the assistance of for
mer President, Cabinet officers. the Post
Office Department. tho Interior Depart

vestigation of the pollution of the wat
ers of Lake Michigan in Illinois and

the instance Of Representative Mann of
South Chicago The congressman is
considering the advisa bility of seeking
federal legislation prohibiting the de-
posit of any refuse in the lake.
what a reflection on our civiliza-
tion Is every case of typhoid fever"
exclaimed the congressman. with all
our boasted science we are inexcusably
lax in promoting the sanitation OF COM
munities. 1t ought to be unthinkable
to contaminate any supply of drinking
waite
Eight Mile Limit Ignored.
II have asked for this investigation
because I have reason to suspect that
the purity of the water supply of Chi
cage, Gary. and other communities at
that end of the lake Is not sufficiently
protected by the law requiring the
dumping of dredgings and other refuse
beyond the eight miel limit. am in
formed the law is not being enfoced
and that even If it were the dumping
should be farther ermoved from the
water intakes"
A law prohibiting the draining of
sewage into the lake proposed by
Mr.. Mann would compel nearly all of
the shore. cities except Chicago to dis
pose DAheir refuse by some other
method.
Source of Pollution Found.
Many of these communities were
found by the public health service in
previous investigation to possess pol
luted sources of water supply. Some of
them were the cities which fought the
plea of Chicago to be permitted to d.
vert additional water from Lake Michi-
gan through the drainage canal for
further protection of the cityTs health.

cabs register of Luba Milodian, the
proprietor OF barber shop Cedar and

the theft had been in the employ of
Milodian.
The crime Is in the nature of an echo
of the closing of the Fowler bank. At

not decide Immediately upon which
bank he would open his account in, and
placed the money in the meantime for

register Stanimirov had a key to the
shop and also to the cash register, but
his employer trusted him.
Monday morning Stanimirov did not
appear at the usual time. The day
wore on without word from the man.
and in tho natural course of evea.a
Milodian had occasion to go to the cash
register. He was considerably surprts-

When he reported his loss to Ser
