BARON DE LEOPOLD MADE ID PAY IMMIGRANT TAX Diplomat Could Not Convince Official—Washington Will No | Doubt Refund the $4. Baron Ludwig de Leopold, officer of the French army, serving now on spe ' cial duty for the office of the minister : of foreign affairs of France, arrived । here last night on his return trip from । Mexico City, where he was sent as a courier to President Diaz with a mis- j :<ion of a secret nature from his gov ernment. The baron was forced to pay $4 head tax at Laredo before he could come into this country, which is ’ the amount the immigrant has to pay to enter the United States. • The diplomat who is at the St. An | thouy hotel, passed through the city j about ten days ago on his trip down and will go from here to New Orleans! and then to New York to await orders. , He said In- not offended at the collection of the $4, but that rhe offi cial who made the assessment, sized him up wrong. Efforts were made by him to con vince the deputy inspector at Laredo that he was nqt an immigrant, but an I official representative of the French government on a mission from one i country to another which necessitated. him passing through the United States : to reach bis objective point. The offi cial couldn’t sec it this way, so the I baron paid the $4, but will, no doubt, have it refunded when he arrives in ' Washington in a few days. The baron [ stated that as far as he was concerned the little affair did not matter, but if i some of the royal princes of Germany. Franco or some of the other foreign * countries were to have the same ex-, periencc while traveling incog it would ■ bo rather unpleasant episode to be held | up for $4 like he was.

NO INTOXICATED [ MAN SHALL RUN AN AUTOMOBILE —POLICE JUDGE BUCKLEY. Fine for Ordinary Drunk Is $h But In This Case $10 and More Will Be Penalty. HE ANNOUNCES A CRUSADE Every Time Chauffeur or Driv er Is Brought Into Court Big ger Fine Will Be Tacked on. “I consider that an automobile in the hands of a sober man is none too safe, but when an automobile is in the hands of a drunken man, that machine becomes dangerous. I am going to fine you $10, and each subsequent time that I have to impose such a fine it will be increased. I am going to try and she if I can’t keep drunken men in charge of automobiles off the streets.” —JUDGE M. E. BUCKLEY. This was the announcement made by Judge Buckley in the poike court to day, at the conclusion or the testi uiony offered in the case of Will Wil liams. a negro, charged with having been intoxicated on the street. Tho usual fine for what the police term a ‘plain drunk” is but $1. The fact that the defendant was running an automobile at the time was considered by Judge Buckley an aggravated case and- lie accordingly increased the pen alty. Judge Buckley believes that, if tol erated, drunken men operating ma chines will sdoner or later be the cause of some innocent pedestrian being run down and killed. His policy, taken at the hearing this morning, and his announcement that he proposes to in- ; crease the fine each time a defendant - appears before him, when tho testi-; mony shows that such defendant was intoxicated while operating an automo bile, he believes will put a stop to this practice. When driving a machine through the crowded streets. Judge Buckley believes, a sober person should , be in charge. If necessary, the maxi mum fine provided will bo inflicted, if it is found that men while under the influence of liquor persist in running automobiles. According to the testimony offered in the case of the negro Williams, who protested against the increased fine ou tl#- groumKHiat he was a capable driv er, having run an automobile for 12 years, and that no danger existed tn persons on the street by reason of his presence, the machine driven by him narrowly missed running down Patrol man Cruz, who attempted to stop th? ! defendant last night while he was tra veling at a fast clip along West Com merce street. In addition to the driver, two negro men and three negro women were in the machine, the police testified, am’ all were talking boisterously as the machine sped along. It was when the machine broke down on Houston street that Williams was taken into custody by Patrolman Hetzel and a charge of intoxication lodged against him.
