sophomores announcing the time and
place at which the rebellious freshman
was to receive his answer.
When seventy-five sophomores gath
cred at the sun dial at noon they were
much disconnected to find an equal
number of freshmen waiting there for
them. The word had gone further than
it was intended, and had reached the
ear of the president of the freshman
class, who had enlisted the aid of the
freshman football team and crew to
protect their class's linguistic hero.
After much shifting and feinting on
the part of the sophomores the stu
dents clashed. The military strategy
of the older classmen surpassed that
of their foes, and, in spite of the ef
forts of Watkins, freshman class p-esi-
dent, and his athletic cohorts, Hardy
finally was worked away from his
guard. AS the battle shifted to Broad
way and 10th Street six sophomores
seized Hardy and pushed him into a
passing taxi. Before freshmen real
lied it, he had been whisked away and
was lost in q maze of traffic.
Freshmen said last night that they
feared that Hardy had been taken to
place where some language unknown
TO rim was spoken. 4

New Alien Bill
Will Be Rushed
Through House
Debate Is Limited to Four
Hours and Passage Is
Expected by Thursday;
Similar to Vetoed Law

FROM Tte1If7bune's 8 Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, April 19.-The i'm
migration restriction bill, which
passed both houses Of Congress dur
ing the last session and was prevented
from becoming law By pocket veto
by President Wilson, was reported to
the House to-day by CT .irman John
son, of the Committee on immigration
1t will be taken up for consideration
tomorrow, with debate tentatively
limited to four hours. - is expected
to be passed Thursday.
Only a few changes, which will af-
feet the bill in no material way, have
been made. The most important Of
these includes, under exemptions, per-
sons who seek admission to the United
States to avoid religious persecution in
the country of their last permanent
residence.
The purpose of the measure, as out
lined to-day in the report of the Com
mittee on immigration, is to limit i'm
migration of aliens from May 10, 1921,
to June 80, 1922, to 3 per cent of the
number Of foreign-born perssns Of
such nationalities in this country. as
determined by the census of 1910.
Exemptions Summarized.
Liberal exemptions are made, includ
ing travellers for business or pleasure: !:
aliens who left the United States to
fight with co-belligerent forces during
the World War; aliens residing in the
United States who return from q tenn
porary Whit abroad, and aliens who
have resided continuously for at least
one year in Canada, Cuba, Mexico or
countries OF Central or South Ameri-
ca or adjacent islands. All such aliens
coming in are obliged to meet all re-
quirements Of present immigration
laws.
In addition to these examples certain
classes are admitted after the quota
from any country is filled Among
these classes are professional actors,
artists, lecturers, singers, nurses, min
isters of any religious denomination,
professors for colleges, members of
recognized learned professions and
aliens actually employed as domestic
servants. This last named class does
not apply to servants to be employed.

tary of Commerce and the Secretary OF

POTSDAM, April 19 (By The Asso-:

that has passed which laid Augusta
Victoria, former Empress, to rest to-
day in the Antique Temple, surrounded
by forest trees. family showing their
new leaves and frightened by the sun
Of early spring.
Old men and women predominated
among the mourners. Most of the
thousands of the officers who lined
were men of years, many of them
wearing the uniform and decorations
of former wars.
It was the demobilized army and
navy and the dethroned rulers of vari-
Gus principalities of the kingdom once
forming the German federation which.
gathered at Wild Park. And it was
chiefly the men ana women of the old
regime who cheered Won Hindenburg
Ludendorff and Won Mackensen when
ceremony, which was probably the final
great gathering of the following of
the Hohenzollerns.
New Regime Takes No Part
Germanys new government offered
no objection to ceremonial funeral
for the former Empress; neither did
it officially participate further than to
send troops to police the grounds
through which it is estimated $4,000
persons quietly passed in the course
of the day to view the body lying in
state No funeral attended by so many
persons could be any auieter or more
peaceful. Rumors of Communist dem
onstrations proved without foundation.
Demonstrations in honor of Won Hin
denburg and other prominent military
were the only evidence of the deep
political feeling underlying the occa-
sion.
Or. Dryander, former court chaplain,
read the 126th Psalm in the Antique
Temple and preached from the text:
"They that. SOW in tears shall reap in
joy" The sermon dwelt upon the
Christian life led by the Empress and
her devotion to her family. The sing
ing was led by the cathedral choir
Royal Insignia Carried
Led by the clergy and officers of the
ex-Empress's own regiments, the fu-

body had been guarded overnight by
faithful mourners after it's arrival by
special train from Doom. the ex-Em-
peror's present home in Holland, and
proceeded shortly before ten o'clock for
the mausoleum in the palace grounds,
mile and half distant.
Four black-plumed steeds from the
former royal stables drew the funeral
car, which was preceded by the former
chamberlains Of the court, bearing the
royal insignia. Generals Won Loewen

Artist Dancers
OF Gala Dress
500 Students Obliged TO
Doff Masque Costumes
at McAlpin Hotel Ball;
Detectives Guard Doors
Advance Posters Blamed
Boettler Fears Rough Party
and. Puts Lid ON Affair That
Holds No Shocks at All

Police Inspector William T. Boettlcr,
OF the Sd Inspection District, practi-
cally ruined the masquerade ball Of the
Art Students League last night by hay
ing Captain Joseph A. Howard, of the
West Thirtieth Street station, and two
detectives at the door Of the ballroom
on the twenty fourth floor of the Hotel
McAlpin, to keep out anything that
even resembling costume.
About 500 young men and women,
variously and strangely attired, as be-
fitted the occasion, were forced to
forego their costumes and get back
into their habiliments of everyday life
before they could dance.
The trouble started yesterday morn
ing, when Inspector Boettler, glancing
through his favorite newspaper, noticed
photographs Of Egyptian dancers and
others who were represented ss appear
ing at the ball that night. The idea
got into the inspectors head that it
was going to be q rough party, SO he
informed the management of the Hotel
McAlpin that the ball could not take
place without a permit.
Costumes Barred
The program started yesterday after
noon with playlets in which the art
students took parts. These continued
until about 10 o'clock last night. Then
it was announced that by order of the
police no one in costume would be
allowed to dance.
The hall in which the playlets were
held was crowded. The announcement
fell on the gathering like couple Of
tons Of cold water.
Nearly every one present was in
costume. There was not a thing i'm
moral about them. They we're as artis
seen this year.
The dance was to be held in room
adjoining the room where the plays
had been presented. To get to it one
had to pass through hall. Detectives
Leo Carey and Bernard Wohlfart were
stationed at the door of the ballroom.
Many Of the guests changed to their
street clothes and were admitted.
Others changed and went home. A
number of young women in evening
gowns were accused of having on cos
tunes and to their astonishmcnt were
refused entrance.
Threatens Arrest
Captain Howard braved the audible
discomfort of the crowd. He said that
if any one danced with a costume on
he. or she. would be arrested.
Clifford Beal, president of the league,
was of the opinion that the action of
the police was outrageous. There were
others, pirates, priests, Indians, mata-
doris, clowns, harlequins and whatnots,
who expressed themselves in broader
and more sweeping terms.
The ball was ruined, especially for
the girls who had contrived some ex-
quisite costumes. And it fell espec-
tally hard on those who were ruled
out by the cops even when they were
not in costume.
No one was arrested.

Columbia's Prodigy Kidnapped
In Glass Battle Over Necktie

Edward Roche Hardy, the twelve
year-old prodigy of Columbia Univer-
sity, by, his utter disregard of the sar-
torial limitations which the sophomore
class has imposed on the freshmen
yesterday precipitated a clash between
the two classes.
Because his fellow classmen were un-
able to uphold their contention that
genius is entitled to dress as it pleases.
in a pitched battle which took place in
front of the sundial at noon, young
Hardy was carried off to captivity Nv
six sophomores.
Up to a late hour last night neither
fellow classmen nor Hardy's parents
were able to find where the prodigy is
being held or what punishment has
been meted out 80 him for wearing a
brown necktie, instead Of one of black
or green hue.
The fact that Hardy was ignoring the
sophomore edict regarding neckwear for
freshmen was generally known on the
campus, and every student has been
waiting for the second-year class,s an
swer to the open challenge. At the
first class yesterday morning word was
passed by six of the leaders among the

Special Dispatch to The Tribune

ATLANTIC CITY, April 19.-Detec-
tives investigating the murder of Count
Heinrich Won Pickler, nephew of Count
ess Won Buelow, obtained information
to-day that convinced them that the
murder was premeditated. An arrest
is expected soon.
A resident here told detectives to-
day how he had been mistaken for the
murder victim two nights before the
crime was committed. He said that on
this night he visited a house on the
South Side, at which Won Picker often
called. Of similar stature, he might
pass for Won Picker in the dark.
He said that he left the house early
in the evening and was hailed by the
driver of large black touring car
parked a short distance away. The
driver asked him the direction in which
he was going and invited him to ride.
He accepted. He was questioned close
ly by the stranger as to whether he
was employed at the st. Charles Hotel
The driver, apparently convinced that

he had picked up the wrong man, took
him to his home.
The police were given a good de-
scription Of the driver. This de-
scription is said to tally with that Of
the purchaser of the salt pepper
cap which was found near the body.
Won Picker is said to have been
lured to an automobile by man
whom he trusted as a friend. The
police say that there were three men
in the machine, but refuse to say
whether they had questioned any of
these men. Won Pickler was killed by
heavy automobile crank in the
hands of young and powerful man.
The murderer is said to have rifed
the slain mans pockets as an after
thought to cover the true motive.
After Won Pickler was slain the car
was driven northward and the body
was thrown in the swamps that lie to
the north Of the city. According to
the police, one of the men who was
in the machine has already disappeared.
The person who rifled Won Pickler's
pockets left blurred fingerprints in the
blood that had CONCEALED at the base
of the money pocket. Efforts of the
