NEW IMMIGRATION
STATION FOR BOSTON
Representative Tinkham Files a Peti-
ton in Congress in Hope Of Hasten
ing Appropriation.

8 WASHINGTON, Jan. 26. - \ petit
ton for a new immigration station at
Boston has been filed in the house by
Congressman Tinkham Of Boston in aid
Of the bill which is now pending. As
no action has been taken by congress
in regard to the station, Mr. Tinkham
filed his petition with a view to hasten
ing an appropriation. AS is well known,
the conditions at the station are deplor-
able, and the immigration officials are
forced TO be on their guard continual
~ against disease in quarters which are
without hospital facilities or proper
conveniences.
The immigration officials believe that
the walls and ceilings, which are of
matched boards have become hopeless
~ infested with insect life, while each
shipload of immigrants brings q new
army of vermin to add to the discom-
fort of the immigrants. Immigrants
who may be free from vermin when
they arrive are likely to become in
tested Immediately from their asso-
eiates. During the past year, eases OF
tonsilitis among the immigrants have
been frequent, while serious infections
of slight wounds have been common.
The danger from disease, according
to the officials, great though it is, i:
relatively of minor consideration wher
compared to the ever-present menace
Of FIRE and the loss of life that might
ensue under easily conceivable condi
tions. The fire menace is also a source
Of much concern to the officials in re
gard to the records, which have NJ
place adequate for safe keeping.
1t is generally believed that immi
grafton will be greatly accelerated a
a result of the European war, and ;
tremendous tax upon the detention
quarters is confidently expected.

Premier Declares Neutrality
Cannot Survive Infringe
ment Of Rights
BELIEVED TO BE
THREAT AT BRITAIN
A Clear Enumeration of the Principle
Hinted at in the Kings Speech from
the Throne Powers Grouping Is
Not Eternal.


STOCKHOLM, Jan. &c. - On the
eve of the debate in the British parlia-
ment regarding the contemplated de-
claration of a formal blockade against
Germany, Premier HammarskioeId
served warning in the Swedish riksdag
yesterday that Swedish neutrality must
not be expected to survive continued
interference with the rights of this
country under national law.
The premier's warning, as clear
enunciation of the principle limited at
IN the Kings speech from the throne
week ago that Sweden will not re-
main quiescent if her commerce is in
terfered with to a great extent by the
belligerents.
Premier Hammarskjoeld made his
declaration in reply to speeches by sew
eral members of the riksdag who dwelt
on the desire of the Swedish people for
continued neutrality.
This was declared by the premier to
be the policy of the government.
But, - he went on, eve repudiate
the idea that our policy means we will
not abandon neutrality under any con-
ditions. 1t is our fervent desire to
keep peace and it is our duty to work
! for this end with all our might, but we
must also reckon with eventualities iE
( which the maintenance of peace. in
spite of all our efforts, would no long
er be profitable.
/ Should we submit to dangerous re
strictions of our right and liberty,
these would probably continue more
acute as the war went on, and even af-
/ terward, resulting in painful economic
and political dependence.

to cooperate with other neutrals, par
ticularly Denmark and Norway, to
promote common aims. In these eff
forts Sweden has been successful to q
considerable degree.
we regret that these united efforts
for the rights and welfare of neutra'
powers and for the preservation, as
mentioned in the speech from the
throne, of the inheritance of interna
tional law should depend on circum
stances over which we have no control
and TO judge which we have no right
But it is our conviction that th'
success of such efforts would be to TIT
advantage, materially and ideally, no
only to Sweden. but to other neutra
! countries and of belhgerents.
1.-The present grouping of the power
will not be eternal. In other circum
stances a belligcrent perhaps will b
sorry that it has for the sake of a.
often doubtful and temporary advan
tage torn up treaties and provisions 0
international law, when it is too lat
to restore or replace them.
''There is risk that dangerous re
strictions of our rights and liberty
should we submit to them, will proba

CHICKENS NOT AFFECTED.
Experts Asked to Explain Why Strych-
nine Doesn't Kill Them.

Harrisburg, Pa.-Experts in universe
ties and colleges of the state have been
asked to inform the state department
of agriculture why strychnine will kill
crows and not affect chickens when
eaten.
The State Live Stock Sanitary board
stirred up the question by sending out
"A notice urging that crows be exter-
minated and giving instructions as to
use of the poison.
Some people wanted to know If chick.
ems would be harmed by 1t. The board
officials replied that they would not.
and told of the result of an experiment
by II nan who had written TO the
department that he had fed strychnine
in corn to brown leghorn chickens and
that they had not minded a bit.
When he threw it out for the crows
TO eat he had to send out burial par
ties. On the other hand, quail did not
seem TO mind 1t a particle.
