$2O,OO0,00O ON LINER,
AND MOTHERLESS BABY
Morgan & Co. Get Gold-Father
Receives Child.

Twenty million dollars in securities
and specie, consigned TO J. P. Morgan
& Co. by the Bank of England, arrived
last night aboard the Cunard liner Sax
onia. Not submarine was sighted on
the voyage over from Liverpool, Cap
tain Protheroe asserted. Nor did any
sharks appear to menace the Saxonia,
the captain said.
At the Cunard pier, after the liner
docked, a silent tragedy was enacted.
With the first of the cabin passengers
to alight came a neatly dressed young
English woman carefully carrying a
sleeping baby. A middle-aged man on
the pier rushed forward and clasped
the baby in his arms. He was Aram
Papsizan, a wealthy Armenian, and the
baby the Saxonia brought 10 him was
his own motherless daughter, born six
months ago in England. The mother
expired two weeks after the child's
birth. Miss Edith s. Atkins. who
brought the child across the ocean, had
been at Mrs. Papaizan's bedside when
she died.

Eight.Foot Sea Tiger Killed In

Seabright, N. J.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, July ia ten
foot shark. possibly the one seen yes
terday near Bayville. invaded Cold
Spring Harbor this afternoon. Colonel
Roosevelt and Louis Tiffany were in
formed OF its presence by a telephone
message from Mrs. J. Stuart Blackton,
who saw the supposed man-eater while
she was in bathing with her two chill
dren, a nurse and Miss Gertrude
Casey, Of Yonkers, off the Blackton
pier.
Captain Dan Smith, a veteran fisher
man. was engaged to organize an ex-
pedition TO drive out the intruder.
With a powerbcet, harpoons, rifles and
several members of the local baseball
team, the captain will set out at day
break. If the shark IS captured alive
it will have temporary prison in the
town trout pond.
Mrs. Blackton, in telling Of the
shark, said tonight:

others in the water. They all saw the

were several other bathers along the
beach and | sent a man 10 warn them.
The shark passed the float slowly, then
turned and made off for the open bay"
Charles W. Smith, pastor of the
Methodist Church in Sayville, reported
tonight that while he and Captain
Theodore Brandt were fishing from a
small boat they encountered a large
shark only a short distance from
where several persons were bathing.
An eight-foot shark was caught in
the Shrewsbury River near Sesbright.

done. Regarding the transport facili-
ties, Mr.. Asquith said. the necessity
Of attempting to relieve Kut-el-Amara
was so urgent that IL was thought right
to push on the troops in advance Of
their transport.
The surrender of Kut hurt British
pride as nothing else has during tho
war. Therefore, Sir Edward Carson's
comment that the campaign was
marked by criminal negligence" met
with sympathetic approval in all quar-
ters of the House.
No opportunity for debate was made
available to-day. but it is safe to
prophesy that the discussion next
Thursday will be the most acrimonious
the government has yet faced. and IL
is likely to find the task of obtaining
supporters most difficult
Public Demands Explanation.
Outside of Parliament the subject Is
being discussed on every side. What
the average man wants TO hear particu-
larly is an explanation of why 1000
wounded officers and men. natives and
English, were huddled together on one
ship going from Basra to Bombay, with
only one doctor and one orderly at
tending them, and also as to whether
proper food, guns, munitions, doctors
and supplies have now been placed at
the disposal of the troops.
There is a feeling of regret that IL
is necessary TO debate the point just
when the British troops are accom-
plishing wonders in France, but the
general opinion is that such a discus
sion is merely justice 10 the men
whose lives were lost in the campaign.

undesirable aliens of both sexes may
be arrested anywhere in the United
States at any time after entry into
the United States. And during the
years 1914 and 1915 there was COM
mendable activity on the part Of the
department in that respect Certain
women were brought to Ellis Island.
Legislation Abolished.
"Some years ago we enlarged Ellis
Island so that persons of that charac-
ter might be segregated from the de-
cent women who are detained there,
largely for pecuniary reasons, waiting
for money TO be sent by their people.
I found, 70 my horror, that this
Commissioner of immigration had abb
rogated those salutary rules and that
he permitted Objectionable persons OF
both sexes to mingle at will with the
other inmates at Ellis Island. The de,
partment sent over there, as matron OF
the detention room, very estimaole

that you cannot touch pitch without

tFrom The Tribune Bureau.l

From The TriDuhe bureau
Washington, July 1S.-Sensational
charges were made to-day against
Commissioner of immigration Freder-
ic C. Howe, of New York, by Repre-
sentative William S. Bennett, a mem
Der of the House immigration Com
mittee. Mr. Bennet's attack was aimed
at Commissioner Howe's proposal TO
abolish the competitive contract sys-
TEN of feeding immigrants and en-
ployes at Ellis Island.
Speaking for resolution he intro
duced calling for a sweeping investi-
CATION of alleged scandalous practices
permitted at Ellis Island, Mr.. Bennett
charged Mr.. Howe with incompetency
and ineficiency, and cited specitlc IN
stances Of alleged immoral conditions
which had grown up since the commits
sioner assumed office. He branded Mr.:
Howe, who is a close personal friend
of Secretary Of War Baker, as "a half
baked radical who has free love ideas
Mr.. Bennett said that as member
of the Federal immigration Commits
sion he had recently investigated con.
ditions on Ellis Island and had found
that Mr. Howe was grossly negligent
was frequently absent from his work
and paid less attention to his duties
than any immigration commissioner ne
had known.

COMMONS MAKES
HOSTILITY PLAIN
Premier's Pleas Fail to Hit Home
Carson Flags Criminal
Negligence"
BY ARTHUR s. DRAPER.
tBy Cable to The Tribune ]

London, July 1s.-The feeling of re-
sentiment regarding the Mesopotamian
campaign, especially the transport and
medical arrangements, has risen still
higher in the last few days. Conse-
quently, when the House of Commons
met to-day to hear Premier Asquith's
statement, the atmosphere OF hostility
present was comparable only to the
controversies of pre-war times.
The Premier spoke with far less than
his habitual confidence. He was greet
ed with cries of "the old tale" and with
ironical laughter when, in opening his
speech, he stated that the army coun-
Gil was strongly opposed to the imme-
diate publication of the reports of the
Mesopotamian campaign, because they
might furnish valuable information 10
the enemy. His admission that the
campaign had excited legitimate in
terest and anxiety scarcely increased
his hold upon the assembly, which usu-
ally in easily swayed by his arguments
The Premier's plea tnat the trans
port system was excellent until addi-
tional troops were required and that
this was also the cause of the medical
breakdown, seemed to strike the mem
bers as feeble and poor vindication
of the Indian governments judgment
and foresight

Charges Waste and Inefficiency.

Attacking the proposal to establish a
government restaurant, Mr.. Bennett
cited a similar attempt in 1892 and de-
clared it had been followed by waste
inefficiency and scandal. The govern
ment employees struck rather than ca,
at the government restaurant. he said.
Succeeding Congresses put their ban
on the practice and reestablished the
competitive system.
Representative Bennet charged that
although some of the past evils at Ellis
Island have been corrected, as the re-
suits of efforts of a matron, the condi-
tions still existing there will be far
more harmful to the City of New York,
if they continue, than the scourge OF

Defends Medical Breakdown.

After the battle Of Ctesiphon, last
November, the Premier said, General
Sir John Nixon, who was then in COM
mand, telegraphed that the medical ar
rangements were quite satisfactory.
Later. Mr. Asquith continued. unofi-
cial reports were received which
seemed to point to q very different
state Of affairs, and a commission was
appointed to investigate the whole mat
ter
The report of the commission had
been received by the government of
India, which was holding it until the
Indian commander in chief had an op-

thereon. The commission reported that

The information given out by the
French authorities in regard to the
situation at Salonics Is not sufficiently
,,plieit 70 indicate whether the Entente
Allies are preparing an offensive move
n.r. such as would be preceded by
General bombsrdment. A drive from the
s,lori,s front has been predicted for
some time.
sSlonica dispatch Of several weeks
sro said that an Allied offensive in
Macedonia had been arranged for the
middle Of May. but that it had been
pos.poned. and might be expected in
July. at the latest. There are 10000
ssrbisn troops on this front, besides
several hundred thousand French and
British soldiers. 1t is generally under
stood that the Allies have 100000 or
more men available for a campaign.
Opposed to them are the Bulgarians,
with unknown numbers Of Turks. Ger
mans and Austrians. II has been re-
ported that Bulgaria's allies have with
drawn troops recently on account Of the
offensive campaigns on tie French, Rus
