ON %:S}:EK&HOME EDITION U. S. TO DEPORT ALIENS WHO FOMENTED STRIKES; 54 ARE HEA VILY G Most of Men Held Are Bolsheviki Who Are to Be Sent Back to Russia For to Government ONE EFFORT MADE TO RELEASE PRISONERS IS FRUSTRATED ON TRAIN BY OFFICERS By Associated Press New York, Feb. 10. —The fifty- four industrial workers of the world who are on their way to New York, from the west to be deported by the government, will be de tained at Ellis Island, the immigration station, until arrangements for sailing can be made. They will be divided according to nationalities and the deportation of the several groups will be effected at the earliest possible moment- the authorities declared to-day. New precautionary measures have been taken to guard the men upon their arrival here, it was stated. Fifty-four members of the Industrial Workers of the World passed through Chicago last night in a special train under a heavy guard on the way to an Atlantic port, where it is said thev will be deported at onCe bv the immigration authorities. Forty of the prisoners came direct from Seattle, where it is alleged they took part in foment ing the general strike which has paralyzed the industries of that city* for several days. Three leaders of the Seattle strike, one Spokane agitator_ an : I. W. \V. leader from Denver and five alien convicts arrested in Chicago -were among the prisoners gathei'ed into the Federal net. Majority Alien Agitators The. majority of the men were alien labor agitators picked up by officials of the -United States Immigration Service during a year of secret campaigning in industrial centers of the Pacific coast. A. D. 11. Jackson, chief of the Seattle office of the Immi gration Service, was in charge of the party. "The proceedings against United States enemies of this type is simple,"/an official with the train said. "Just two hours before the Seattle strike was called we gathered forty agitators into the cars with everything cleared away! between them and the middle of the Atlantic ocean. For more than a year the Immigration Service has heeh working quietly iti all industrial centers, checking up 011 the strange aliens who have appeared ana gathered evidence against I. W. W. leaders and troublemakers who call! themselves Bolsheviki. (Go by Wilson's Order "When evidence was compiled against this particular crowd each case was brought to a Federal bear ing and all court findings sent to "Washington, whefe they were re- viewed by Secretary of Labor Wil son. The Secretary has the power to order this type of prisoner de ported or released, and so far there has been little trouble in getting quick action." . , The majority of the prisoners will be sent back to Russian provinces. They are principally Norwegians, Swedes and Finns, according to guards on the train. The only attempt at a mob de livery of the prisoners was frus trated by the foresight of the Fed eral offioials. Before the train reached Butte, Mont., officers were warned that the I. W. W. leaders In that city and Helena had learned of the deportation and were massing to deliver their comrades. The two cars, then attached to a regular train, were cut off at a junction ar.d set into another train, which made a wide detour, missing both Butte and Helen®. Several hundred men gathered at the railroad station in Butte when the original train reached that point, according to reports which reached the officials. They were allowed to search the train and when they found the prisoners were not on board left without making trouble. Only one of the prisoners made serious objection when told of the intention of the Government to de port htm. He swore out a writ of habeas corpus against deportation, which was quashed by a Federal court at Spokane. One woman, the wife of a Finnish agitator, arrested In Spokane, was in the party. The five prisoners taken into the party here are alien convicts, who were sentenced to deportation some time ago.

FRENCH GIRLS ANXIOUS FOR YANKEE MALES American Soldier Is Ideal of 40 Per Cent, of Paris Women By Associated Press Paris, Feb. 10.—To get an Ameri can husband seems to be the ideal of over 40 per cent, of the Parisian young women. At all events, that is the result of an inquiry conducted by L'Oeuvre, a Paris daily paper, which publishes a series of letters setting forth the reasons that have guided the writers to give preference to Americans over their compatriots. Those who would rather marry Frenchmen base their predilection largely on patriotic grounds, but a large percentage of young French women confess to a whole-hearted admiration of the average Ameri can's breezy good humor and cour tesy of manner toward the other sex. Several French girls who lmvc had an opportunity lo observe Amer ican homelife appreciate the easy camaraderie between the sexes, and they concluded that a good comrade must make a good husband. Sorue fair writers say that French lovers are given to talking overmuch and are too fussy about their per sonal appearance. The question as to whether a man ought to shave seems to agitate the French feminine mind considerably, and the voting is about equal between the smoothshaven American and his French brother with a moustache. One girl raises the curious objec tion that "Americans eat too much," while another disapproves of the "heavily-framed American spectacles with the huge round lenses which so many Americans affect." DKMPREY READY TO SIGN .

He says he has seen a good bit of the world since leaving America to go to Fiance, but the United States is still, to him, the greatest country In the world. As a token of friendliness to those of his neighbors who went across the At lantic to fight in the American forces, Shaffer has extended an invitation to all soldiers who saw overseas duty to be his guest at to-night's celebra tion at the Orphcum and oc cupy seats on the stage. It is im possible for him to get in touch per sonally with all of these, and It is Shaffer's hope that all the boys who are eligible through serving' their country on the other side Of the water yvill accept this Informal no tice and be at the Orpheum to-night. Such ljien should appear at the stage entrance at 8 o'clock. The announcement that Walter Shaffer, author of the widely read letters in the Harris'uurg Telegraph, would give his experiences at the Orpheum to-night, has led many other cities and towns In this and other states to apply to him for dates on which he will repeat his talk "Over the Heads of the Hun." Sev eral engagements have already been announced, among them Hershey for Friday night of this week and Mlllersburg for Saturday. So fast have the applications for out of town lectures rolled in upon Shaffer, he haß drafted the services of C. Floyd Hopkhts, of the Majestic theater, in laying out a proper route for his en gagements. Mr. Hopkins is ready to eeive applications from societies in any city or town that may desire to have the young aviator appear under their auspices. PEACE DELEGATES FIND NO BARRIER AT WORLD'S TABLE Stirring Developments Expected if Com mission on Credentials Gets Down to Probing Passwords NO INQUIRY LIKELY UNTIL ALL REPRESENTATIVES ARE PRESENT By Associated Press l'aris, Feb. 10.—If the peace con ference commission on credentials ever begins to function some stir ring developments, are expected to follow. The commission has not met thus far even to organize, the confer ence huving gotten along entirely without the right of any of the delegates to their seats being chal lenged, which is probably without precedent in the history of such international gatherings. The fam ous Westphalian congress of 1647 spent nearly a year In verifying the credentials of its members. To Await All Delegates The usual course at these assemb lages is for the delegates to ex change their credentials as soon as they gather, any one of them being privileged to object to the creden tials of another if he finds the grounds to do so, it was stated, how ever, that the committee on creden tials of the present conference would conduct any necessary investigation of the sufficiency of the papers brought by each delegate, and that it would await the arrival of all the delegates before undertaking the work. Documents Not Examined The delegates have been coming along in single file ever since the opening of tjie conference, and it has not been thought proper to be gin the examination of the docu 4 TO REPEAL TAX ON WEARING APPAREL J £ Washington—Chairman Kitchin of the House V and Means Committee announced to-day that as soon as ;

Rumors, however, have been current recently that there was another reuson for the delay—the apprehension of the directing forces of the conference that objections would be immediately lodged against the presence of some persons who have already occupied seats in the conference and who, it is declared, are not proper representatives of their governments or are accredited by organizations that have no ex istence as governments. Forego Inquiry as to Delegates Reading members of the confer ence express confidence that these persons have a proper status in the body, have sanctioned their presence and have even admitted some ol them to membership in the principal commissions, and it is understood that the conference ,leaders do not desire to have an issue raised now in this connection that might result in bad feeling and interfere with the smooth progress of the peace-making work. Small Commissions Ttca Such headway has been made by , some of the lesser commissions of the peace conference with the plans before them that it is expected these commissions will be ready to report, a number of important projects to the conference for its action almost immediately after the report of the commission on the Society of Nations is disposed of. The conference itself while It ap pears likely to drop into a more leis urely pace after the departure of, President Wilson and Premier Or-, lando of Italy and In the absence of' Premier Lloyd George of Great Brit-, ain, who has already left Paris, plans to undertake the discussion o* some of these topics. Interesting! debates are expected to follow. ■
