T0 WIPE OUT PEONAGE. e Mrs. Quackenbos Outlines Her Plan of Action, New Orleans, Nov. 2/—An outline of her plans for stamping out peonage In the South was given out here by Mrs. Mary Grace Quackenbos, the only Wwoman special assistant to the attor- Rey general of the United States. Mrs, Quackenbos was recently assigned to Jovestigate peonage in Southern states. “One thing which I am compelled to Aght against,” said Mrs. Quackenbos, "3 the fact that few persons ag yet réallze my Totlves and purposes, With the proper support I believe I can completely wipe out peonage In the South within the next year.” Mrs. Quackenbos’ prediction is based partly on her bellef that peonage is not at all general. In her opinion im- migration {gto the South will not suf- fer material setbacks from the ex- posure of this oppression on forelgn labor. Bhe says that charges of op- pression in the South recently made in forelgn countries are almost wholly due to letters which emlgrants have Wwritten home end that a government investigation, by removing the cause for such letters, will benefit immigra- tion, STEERAGE RATES RAISED Qreat Rush of Foreigners to Europe Continues, New York, Nov. 2 .—In one of his speeches some years ago President Benjamin Harrison said that the gates of Castle Garden always opened in- ward, never outward.

Hundreds of the foreigners have been obliged to wait until next week because berths could not be found for them. This week all the big transat- lantic lines raised the steerage rate from $21 to $32, but still the demand for tickets has Increased. A repre- sentative of the steerage department of the Hamburg-American line said that from New York alone the num- ber of forelgners departing weekly was 25,000 and that $5,000,000 was be- ing taken away weekly by these re- turning immigrants either in cash or in drafts on foreign countries.
