New York, April 13.—Thousands of Immigrants who went to Europe dur- ing the financial depression have be- gun to return in great mumbers and with them, swamping -the Ellis island offielals, are thousands more, many of Whom have been driven to seek homes here because of the increasing burden of taxation in Europe. i The record of March beats that of any other March. The total number of voyagers was 132,397, of whom nearly 110,000 were classed as immi- grants. New York state recelved the largest proportion of the March arrivals, 82, 300; Pennsylvania absorbed 20,500, Iilinois took 13,000, Ohio 6,500 and Wisconsin 2,200. ‘ ] The immigration commissioner, fig- uring that the invasion will continue, has asked Washington for a large in-: crease in his staff to handle the in- comers.

ACCEPTS THE INVITATION Rormer President Requested to Ad- dress the Natlonal Conservation Loague After His Return to the United States—Will Shortly Meet Heney and Bullock, 8taunch Sup- perters of the Roosevelt Policies. Porto Maurizio, April 13.—Colonel ‘Theodore Roosevelt has accepted an invitation, personally delivered by Gif- ford Pinchot, whom President Taft re- moved as chief forester of the United States, to address the meeting of the National Conservation league. The acceptance of this invitation lets the first real light into the nature of the confidential interviews between the ex-president and Pinchot. Both Roosevelt and Pinchot con- tinue their sphinxlike silence regard- ing the subject matter of their con- versations, but in view of the latest developments this silence is no longer baflling the correspondents. In fact the correspondents were not baffled from the first, but they needed something besides mere conjecture on which to hang their conclusions and tbe acceptance of this invitation has stven them the needed pes. The significance of this acceptance is apparent. One of Roosevelt's pet reforms was. the conservation move- ment. Pinchot was his. right bower. Pinchot and Secretary Ballinger ran afoul, President Taft supported his oabinet member and ecalled for Pin- ohot’s resignation. Roosevelt has heard the Pinchot side of the contro- versy, accepted his friend’s statement and, without waiting to hear from the other side, he has indicated that his sympathies are all with Pinchot. To Meet Other Supporters. It is becoming daily more apparent that Roosevelt is going to learn of other phases of the American polit- ical situation before he returns to the United States. The report that Fran- cis J. Heney, former prosecutor of San Francisco, and Seth Bullock, a United Btates- marshal- at Deadwood, 8. D., are to meet him in Europe and.dis- close to him the situation in their re- spective territories, bears out this con- clusion. Both Heney and Bullock are staunch supporters of Roosevelt. .Though he has sald nothing it is becoming daily more apparent that Colonel Roosevelt is disappointed that President Taft has not sent an emissary of the ad- ministration to give, the' administra- tion side of the various controversies now on in America. “It seems like old times,” Pinchot sald to the correspondents who tried to break through his guard. “My walk with Roosevelt reminded me of the strolls we used to take about Wash- ington.” There was & ring of sig- nificance in Pinchot’s words. Another perfect day greeted the Roosevelts at Miss Carew’s villa. ‘Wherever the Roosevelts went, whether walking or riding, they were greeted enthusiastically by the vil- lagers, who several times bombarded them with bouquets of violets and roses, DISCUSSES RAILROAD BILL Senator La Follette Arraigns Depart- ment of Justice. ‘Washington, April 18.—Senator La Follette took the senate floor for the purpose of making his long promised speech in opposition to the adminis- Watien railroad bll. The speech was a severe arraignment of the depart- ment of justice. The Wisconsin sen- ator's remarks were largely devoted to the provisions of the bill authoriz- ing the acquisition of the stock of one eompany by another and he used the merger of the Boston and Maine com- pany with the New York, New Haven and Hartford as the basis of his ac- cusations. - Mr. La Follette declared that every rovision had been made by the esevelt administration to prosecute the marger suit against the two com- anies and expressed horror over At- jorney General Wickersham’s prompt dismissal of the case within thres menths after he came into office. Seoks lowa Governorship. Des Moines, April 13.—State Sen- ator Edward G. Moon of Ottumwa has announced: his candidacy for the Dem- ocratic nomination for governor. The announcement followed a conference of prominent Democrats of the south- eastern part of the state.

Of course, the senate’s courtesy was due primarily to its respected mem- ber, the senator from Wyoming, but it is not always that a senators daughter can postpone a meeting . of the greatest deliberative body en earth, even on her bridal day.

Attorney General Wickersham had a long conference with President Taft and, while part of the conversation may have had to do with judicial mat- ters and further plans with reference to corporations, it was admitted that the political situation, as the head of the department found it from observa- tion in Chicago, was discussed. Regularity i8 not having all its trou- bles in the Middle or Far West. From that aforetime rock ribbed center of standpatism, Pennsylvania, has come a hurry call to John Dalzell, for years one of the house leaders, second on the ways and means committee and member of the old rules committee, to come home and look after his fences. - Mr. Dalzell had scarcely finished reading Senator Beveridge out of the party when he received this call to come and save his own bacon. A man who is strong with the labor vote and an anti-Cannon exponent is out for Dalzell's seat and the latter is fright- ened. Chairman Tawney of the house ap- propriations committee, in whose dis- trict President Taft made his cele- brated speech in defense of the Payne- Aldrich act, also left for his home in Minnesota. He saw the president just before leaving town. There is great hustling on the part of the “old guard” all along the line, their anxiety to be returned not being di- minished by the professed belief that the next house will be Democratic.
