[This is p?rt of a chapter on the Department
of Commerce and i>abor from the book "The
American GoTernment." by Frederic J. H ask In,
which is now offered to the readers of The Star
on most advantageous terms. See display announcement
elsewhere in this issue.]
THE Department of Commerce
and Labor covers a wide range
of governmental activities.
The scrutiny of corporations,
the regulation of Immigration
and naturalization, the gathering
of census statistics, the regulation of
aion^Q rHa nf mPOclirPa nrnnfland
ovauvttktuo V* UJVBOW. VU, J/? * *"
distribution of fishes, the maintenance
of lighthouses, the supervision of navigable
waters, the coast and geodetic survey
work and the steamboat inspection
service are among the affairs with which
the department deals. Among the most
interesting phases of Its activities are
the census and the maintenance of standards
of measure, which are treated in
separate chapters.
The bureau of Immigration and naturalization
has charge of the work of receiving
aliens into the United States and
of the enforcement of the laws by which
they may become American citizens. One
person out of every three in the United
States Is an Immigrant or the child of
an immigrant. Frequently more than
5,000 immigrants arrive in one day at
the port of New York, and on some occasions
the average Is 5,000 a day for
a full month. This gives the inspectors
only two minutes to each immigrant, and
a question must be asked and answered
nearly every second. Only one immigrant
out of a thousand is excluded, although
the restrictions are being multiplied eacn
year. The head tax of $4 collected from
each immigrant more than supports the
immigration and naturalization service
of the country.
Immigrants coming to the United States
should possess enough money to take care
of themselves for a sufficient time to permit
them to secure employment. During
a recent year the incoming tide of
humanity exhibited to the officials of the
immigration service more tnan Za,000,000,
an average of more than $27 per person.
Fully 86 per cent of these had less than
$50 when they came in. The bulk of the
immigration into the United States today
comes from southern Europe.
It has been proposed in Congress that
all male aliens between the ages of sixteen
and fifty shall be required to stand
a physical test equal to that undergone
by recruits for the army and navy; this
test, of course, to be applied to manual
laborers only. Approximately four out
of five of the immigrants who come into i
the United States come through the port
of New York. Of fche 1,041,570 immigrants
arriving in 1910, 786,004 came
th*rough that port.
One of the greatest difficulties which
the immigration authorities has to face
is that of distributing this flood of humanity
over the entire country rather
than allowing it to concentrate around the
port of entry. There is a provision in the
immigration law which provides that contract
laborers shall not be brought into
the United States. A striking illustration
of the ease with whcli conscienceless persons
or corporations can violate the spirit
of this law without putting themselves
within reach of its letter is the case of
a large concern which made arrangements
with interested parties to keep it
supplied with common manual laborers,
offering fair wage. The wages offered
would usually be paid for the first week,
and then the aliens are placed on "piecework"
at a wage and under conditions
barely affording an existence. This would
result in their leaving the concern as
soon as. by starving economy or otherwise.
they could raise a sufficient sum to
take them to some other place. Then
their places would be filled with other
unskilled and ignorant men piloted by the
society. Thus the concern maintained a
constant supply of cheap foreign labor,
the supposedly philanthropic organization
earned a rich financial reward, and the
aliens were outrageously exploited.
The heavy immigration from southern
Europe is accredited mainly to the promotion
methods of steamship agencies
and professional money lenders. They
make large profits out of the immigrant
business, and even if they have to carry
some of the immigrants back it still
leaves enough profit to make the business
very much worth while.
The hardest problem which the immigration
service has to solve is that of
COUPLE PLEAD GUILTY
TO CHARGE OF LARCENY
Man and Woman Brought Here
From Richmond, Va., Are
Sent to Jail.
Robert Mcllvane, alias Buchanan, and
Jane Burbank, alias Buchanan, the
couple brought here from Richmond a
couple of days ago, today pleaded guilty
before Judge Pugh, in the Polioe Court, to
two charges of petit larceny. It was alleged
Mcllvane stole a suit of clothes
from D. M. Green, in the rooming house
at 702 H street northwest, and that the
woman at the same time and place stole
a bracelet valued at $.>>. Each was sent
to jail in default of a fifty-dollar fine.
Photographs of the couple have been
sent by the police to Waterbury, Conn.,
and Ansonia. Conn., In the hope of having
them identified, contirrnation being
sought particularly of the report received
by the local board of charities that Mcllvane,
a linotype operator, left his wife
and four children in destitute circumstances
In Waterbury. The police also
suspect the woman has been married at
least three times.

"Big Eight" Foot Ball for Championships
Remainder of Season.
CHICAGO, October 16.?'-Big eight"
conference foot ball passed out of the
preliminary period with Saturday's
games, and left the stage set for contests
of championship importance for
the remainder of the season. Chicago's
ll-to-3 victory over Purdue, and Illinois'
9-to-0 score against St. Louis
University closed the early period in
both camps, and put the next important
conference question up to next Satur
day's Chicago-Illinois contest in mis
city, when one of the 1911 contenders
must drop out of the race.
A1I the gridiron signs point to a fast
game between Chicago and Illinois
The fact that Illinois defeated Chlcag
last year, and has the shade in veteran
material and individual stars, gives
encouragement to the state university
team, but Chicago's fast games againsIndiana
and Purdue assure the Urban.i
eleven of worthy opposition. That th^a
week's practice will tell the tale is the
word from the two camps.

hunting season in Maine opened today
with many gunning enthusiasts from all
purts of the country on hand to try their
luck. For several years big bulls with
line horns have been scarce, but under
the recent protective laws it is reported
that many of them are so matured this
year as to be good trophies. Two thousand
moose have been killed In Maine la

enforcing the Chinese Immigration laws.
Sometimes the Chinese slip Into the United
States from Canada or Mexico in
sealed freight cars, or even in the refrigerators
of dining cars. At other times
they come hidden in coal bunkers, chain
lockers, forepeaks and other secluded
parts of ocean-going vessels. It Is stated
that many of the Chinese In the United
States today have reached here In violation
of the Chinese immigration law.
A typical case of evasion of the law
was that of a Chinaman who recently ar'
rived at San Francisco accompanied by
an alleged son. So well were they coached
'that on examining them the officers
became satisfied that their claims were
bona fide, and Instructions were given
for their landing. If the Chinaman had
been satisfied to perpetrate only two
frauds and lay the basis for later similar
operations, success would have attended
him. But he over-reached himself. As
he started ashore one of the watchmen
noticed something about him .mat excited
the suspicion that he was carrying
coaching letters, and a search of his person
revealed the fact that he had consented
to be the message bearer for a
number of the detained Chinese, who,
their cases being fraudulent, wished to get
letters ashore to the smugglers interested
in mem. snowing now mey naa lesimea
In order that corroborating witnesses
could be produced. A re-examination of
this Chinaman showed that he and his
son were not even members of the same
family, and their cases were manufactured
out of whole cloth.
When an immigrant lands in the United
States, if he be a steerage passenger, he
must undergo a minute examination.
Physicians, expert on diseases prohibited
from entry, are stationed a distance of
twenty-five feet apart, and the immigrants
are marched past in single file.
As they walk across the twenty-five foot
space each one twenty-five feet behind
his predecessor, he is eyed minutely from
head to foot by the physician, and if
there is any reason whatever for suspecting
the presence of any disease prohibited

alien is sent back for further observation

A branch of the Department of Commerce

Industry and the lumber Industry. It
declares that Its Standard Oil Investigations
caused the railroads concerned in
carrying oil to cancel every rate declared
illegal by the Investigators and to remove
most of the other causes of complaint
as to inequitable traffic regulations.
It is asserted that when the exposure
of the American Tobacco Com
pany s metnods was made it promptly
abandoned the use of secret subsidiary
concerns which had posed as independent,
but which in reality were trust concerns
engaged In breaking down competition.
Still later this bureau made a report on
the billion-dollar steel trust.
The bureau of labor devotes its activities
to the work of gathering information
about the condition of the laboring
classes of the United States, and of all
matters which affect them. Some of its
recent publications include bulletins on
the Increase in the cost of food and other
products, civil service retirement in
Great Britain and \Sew* Zealand, railroad
pension systems in the United States,
strike conditions at the Bethlehem Steel
Works, a compilation of laws relating
to compensation for industrial accidents
in foreign countries, condition of woman
and child wage earners in the United
States and phosphorus poisoning in the
match industry. This bureau is simply
a gatherer of information and has nothing
to do with the enforcement of laws
relating to labor conditions. However, it
does adjudicate claims for compensation
growing out of injuries received by government
employes.
The bureau of manufacturers is engaged
in making available for the manufacturing
establishments of the country
the information gathered with reference
to trade opportunities in foreign lands by
the consular service of the State Department.
In four years there were published
over 5,000 separate items, each renre
sentlng an opportunity for the sale of a
certain machine or commodity by an
American manufacturer. Business men
directly interested are furnished letters
In business detail to create new or to
extend old lines of trade. The bureau
is engaged in an effort to educate the
American exporter in the art of properly
packing goods. In addition to these things
it has prepared an international commercial
directory, containing accurate
and reliable information as to buyers in
foreign countries. This directory is published
for distribution at a price which
will relieve the government of any expense
in connection with its publication.

Army Officers Depart for Physical
Test Under Command of Gen.
R. K. Evans.

With Brig. Gen. Robert K. Evans, chief
of the division of militia affairs, ?ar
Department, in command, the second
group of officers, numbering thirty-two,
left Fort Myer early this morning on
horseback for their three-day test ride.
This group is composed of officers having
assignments in the offices of the War
Department, and includes Lieut. "Col. S.
E. Smiley (major, 2d United States Infantry),
adjutant general. District of Columbia
Militia. Ten medical officers are
in the group.
They will ride over Virginia roads,
camping each night on the reservation at 1
Fort Myer.
Bad riding conditions faced the officers
when they made the start this morning.
Following the rain of yesterday, the rid- ,
ing over the muddy roads will undoubted- |
ly prove trying, and an overcast sky |
seemed to foreshadow that the men
would have rain during their ride. Those
who have taken the rides heretofore say i
It is almost certain that one of the three
days consumed by the test will be rainy.
