HINDUS QUIT CANADA;
MAY seek U. 5. Soil

VANCOUVER. B. c., July 9-British
Columbia finished with a vexing prob
lem when about 300 Hindus, on
board the steamer Komagata, aban-
doned their fight for admission to
Canada and agreed to go back home.
They have been here more than
month and the Komagata was special
ly chartered TO bring them from IN
dia via China Their stay has been
marked by plots to assassinate the
local immi igration officers and by all
possible legal proceedings
They were refused permission to
LAND because they did not come di-
rectly from India; because they did
not have 5000 apiece required by the
immigration laws, and because they
were held to be common laborers
liable to become public charges and
hence not entitled to admission.
The komagata chartered by Gurdit
Singh, a wealthy Hindu, to bring 375
of his oountrymen to Canada, ar
rived from Shanghai May %. OF the
376 Hindus aboard the Komagata
when she arrived. 353 are still on the
ship, the others having been admitted
when they proved they we're not OF
the immigrant class.
Canadian and American immigra-
tion officers here are watching for tho
next move of the Hindus. which it
is reported win be an effort TO land

Wilson IN Fresh
FIGHT With SENATE
Insists That Warburg and
Jones Be Confirmed AS
Reserve Board Members
SENATOR'S SAY
HE WILL WIN OUT
By The United Press.


WASHINGTON, July 9.-President
Wilson today cleared the decks for
finish fight with the Senate to force
confirmation Of Paul N. Warburg, of
Kuhn, Loeb and Company, Of New
York, and Thomas d. Jones, the Chi
cago fnancier. TO be members of the
Federal Reserve Board He COM
municated with Warburg by long dis
tance telephone and secured permis-
sion of the latter to let his name re-
main before the Senate. At the same
time, the President endorsed the War
burg determination not to be ques-
toned by the Senate committee on
banking and currency
AS soon as this was settled, the
White House let it be known that the
President will fight to force confrma-
ton of these two men, who he con-
slders are purely personal appoint
ments selected for reasons Of pecul-
lar fitness for the jobs. He immedi-
ately sent for Senator Shafroth, Of
Colorado. a member of the committee
on banking and currency, and asked
him to force a report on the nomina-
tiOns. He was very frankly told that
the committee report would be unfav-
orable. But Shafroth told the Presi-
dent that they had carefully canvass
cd the Democratic members of the
Senate. and they asserted that the
Democratic opposition to Jones and
Warburg centered in Senators Reed
Of Missouri. and Hitchcock, of
Nebraska, both members Of the COM
mittee.
The President was told that there
was no doubt that a majority of the
members of the Senate would vote for
confirmation once the matter was be-
fore that body, even though by doing so
they would be in the position of
repudiating one of its committees.
The opposition to Warburg and
Jones has resulted in strained rela-
tions between certain members of the
Senate and the President. which it
was feared today may imperil success
Of the antitrust program, unless ma
terial concessions we're made which
will result in Republican aid being
secured.

WASHINGTON, July 9-"The world

81 CONTESTANTS
IN FIRST SHOOT

The rifle range at the DUPONT Trap.
shooting Club, where the members OF
the several troops of Boy Scouts are to
be taught the use OF the target rifle,
and, especially the proper handling OF
the rife, was opened yesterday after
noon, despite the rain, and 27 Scouts
were in attendance to receive their first
lessons Twenty members of Troop No.
Z and seven members OF Troop gave
the new rifles their first practice, and
some remarkably good scores were made,
considering the fact that to the most
of the Scouts it was a new experience.
Six rifles have been provided for the
Use of the Scouts OF Wilmington. and
the first step was to explain TO the
boys the construction and use OF the
rifle. The careful handling of the
weapon was also explained. The shoot
ing was done in relays of six boys each,
under the supervision of Thomas @.
Samworth, the official range officer OF
the National Headquarters of Boy
Scouts of America, himself one Of the
most careful, expert riaemen in this
section OF the country.
The next practice will be held to-
morrow afternoon at 2 o'clock, when
il is expected that every troop in the
city will be represented. Scouts must
appear in uniform at the shoots.
II may be of interest to know that
Wilmington is the only place in the
country where the boys have the ad-
vantage of an absolutely safe range,
fine rifles and the services of an ex-
pert rifieman for the instruction and
pleasure of its entire Scout member
ship. In every other place. the Scouts
desiring to secure this merit badge
must own their own rifles, find their
own places to practice. and be their
own instructors, so that Wilmington
is setting the pace for the country
in other matters than purely manu-
facuring or commercial ones.
The high score yesterday was made
by First Glass Scout James r. Nor
ford, of Troop, No. 2. who made %
out of % prone. and II out Of 20
standing offhand. a total Of 80 out Of

By The unIted Press.

WASHINGTON, July 9-ln a report
10 the Senate upon the issuance Of
free passes by the Louisville and
Nashville and associated railroads to-
day. the International Commerce
Commission scathingly arraigned the
company for lavish distribution Of
passes and their insidious influence.
These carriers have dipped into
practically every domain Of public
and private life through the instru-
mentality OF the free pass" the report
declared. There is scarcely a walk
Ia life that is not represented In this
procession Of recipients from the
Federal bench TO the local politician
enc the sheriff who summons the
jury. The threads represented by
these passes tie thousands Of citizens
to the carriers through improper
relations. The lack OF morality re-
fiected is a menace to the institutions
Of free people These citizens who
sell their influence quite as much
as though they accepted money bribes
seem to be as willing 10 be tied as
the carriers are willing 10 tie them
They pledge their influence quiet
ly in the home; school or club. in
professions, business. city councils,
legislative halls and at the polls
The financial magnitudes involved
hoewver. are as nothing compared
with the impairment of public and
private morality"
The commission said that as its in
vestigation Of the l.. and n. passes
was pursuant 10 a senate resolution.
IL could not make an order in the
particular case
I'VE have had. however, I'm pro-
gress, a general investigation Of free
transportation" the commission
stated, "and II is our intention TO Is
sue an order dealing with that prac-
tice."

HARRISON, n. j., July o-Engineer-
ing on the Lackawanna Railroad used to
be a gay life, but Harrison's town faith
ers have taken the romance all out OF
it. They've ordered engines not TO toot
their whistles. And here's the reason,
as one irate townsman told the town
council:
1T isn't that we object TO the whist
ling when there is danger, but we do OBJ
icct TO il as means of social corre-
spondence. Every night, you can hear
one of those dream -shattering whistles
shrek, and then you see windows fly up
all along the lines; bare feminine arms
reach out, delicate squares OF cambrie
ilutter, sometimes a flower descends in
