INTERVIEW WITH
ROOSEVELT BY BRIDGE
DELEGATION FROM MON
ROE AND DADE COUNTIES

The last semi-official act of
Ruth Bryan Owen, U. S. minister
to Denmark, former congressman
from the Fourth District, was one
done in the interests Of Key West,
and the bridges.
Through her intercession with
President Roosevelt, VIM. R. Por-
ter, H. H. Taylor and ]. Lancelot
Lester were granted an interview
at the White House on the sub
ject nearer to the hearts of hum
dreds of Key Westers than any
other subject, The Bridges.
What the result of this inter-
view will be, will be learned as
soon as it is concluded, and it is
confidently believed by those who
have worked steadily and con-
sistently in behalf of the bridges
that it will be MOST fruitful.
Two visitors from Key West
asked Mr.. Porter before leaving
Miami last week. how he felt
about the bridges. He replied
with a smile that he felt more con-
fident than ever before that every
thing will be all right.
Mrs. Owen. after the COM
pietion Of her kindly and thought

proves conclusively that she Is

Royal Courts Draw New u. S. Envoy
Into Vortex OF British Social Whirl
By OSCAR LElDING
slsy Associated lsressp

LONDON, May 2.--Robert w.
Bingham, Americas new ambassa-
dor to the Court of st. James, will
be plunged into the center of
Great Britain's social whirl at
the very latest outset.
When he arrives he will find
himself in the midst of the five
royal courts which King George
and Queen Mary will hold this
year. The first one is on May
II.
Test Enjoys Diplomacy
Interest in the courts will center
largely on the presence of two
new ambassadors, representing
America and France.
But there is more to the am
bassadorial duty than his own APP
at the court.
It is the personal prerogative
of an ambassador or his represent
tative to choose from the hum
dreds of applicants the society
women who will have the privilege
of curtsying before the king-em-
peror and his wife.
This year nearly 200 applica-
tf0ns were received at the Aineri-
can embassy. Of these, if the
past is any guide, less than 40
will be granted for the five courts.
More Courts-Less Hurry
The 1888 season marks the first
time since 1880 and the second
since King Georges grave illness
in 1928 that five courts are plan
ned. The dates this year are
May II, IL, IL and Is and June
%.
An additional court may mean
one of two things, either that in
the great press of applications
there will be less likelihood of an
xious debs and young brides being
disappointed by rejection or that
presentations can be made in more
leisurely fashion.
For the lucky ones who are Sc
lected, the great moment, in which
they din before the king, move
gracefully Few steps and repeat
the curtsy before the queen pas
SEES all too quickly.
Months of preparation selec-
tion of the gown and other de-
tails of wear, the lessons in curt
sying and walking and sitting
gracefully when a court train is
worn, the parties, and uncounted
details--lead to this brief moment.
Public Inspections Ordeal
Each court represents the peak
of British social ceremony and the
glittering pageant with its dig
nifty and splendor has no counter

TRIED
AND SENTENCED
in U. S. COURT
CUBAN CITIZEN CONFESSED
TO VIOLATING IMMIcRA-
TIoN LAWS; GIVEN MONTH
IN COUNTY JAIL

Ricardo Alvarez, Cuban citizen,
confessed yesterday in U. S. court
to having violated the immigra-
ton laws of the United States. He
was sentenced by Judge Halsted l..
Ritter to spend one month in the
county Jail and at the expiration
of that period to be deported to
Cuba. He has been in the county
Jail since February 4, this year.
The record of the peregrima
tions of Alvarez is of interest to
the U. s. authorities. He is but
10 at this time but very clever.
In fact, just a bit too clever.
In 1881, he decided to come to
Key West. A friend of his in Ha-
vana, Orestes Naranja, who was
born in Key West, offered to let
Alvarez have his birth certificate
so that entry to the United States
would be easy.
Alvarez took the certificate to
the agent of the p. and o. S. S.
company in Havana, said he was
an American citizen, and purchas-
ed his ticket. He arrived In Key
West and was passed rs being ca.
K. He sent the certificate back
to Naranja in Havana.
When the steamer Miami, now
the Steel Pier, sailed for Atlantic
City, N. j., Alvarez decided he
wanted to go. He got q job to
work his way on the ship and left.
Before leaving, however, he
thought q birth certificate would
be handy thing, so he went to
the bureau of vital statistics, and
after making the necessary oath.
secured one showing that he was
an American citizen.
He left on the Miami for At
lantic City and afterwards visit
ed in Philadelphia, New York and
other cities before returning to
Havana. He remained in this
country about 90 months.
In February this year he decid-
cd to again visit Key West. He
did, arriving on the S. S. Florida
February 4. He presented that
birth certificate bearing the name
orestes Naranja. Not the original
certificate but the one he had Sc
cured by misrepresentation.
Later that same day A. S.
Caviness, Of the U. S, immigration
service was given tip about
Ricardo Alvarez, alias Orestes Mar
anja, and after a search located
the dodger and placed him in the
county Jail.
He was given a hearing before
C. Rodney Gwynn, U. S. commits
sioncr and held in bond OF $500.
