PLOT TO SMUGGLE ALIENS IS EXPOSED Consular Agents in Cuba Thwart Scheme to Bring Immigrants Into U. 8. as Sailors. A plot to smuggle aliens and prob- ably liquor into the United States has been nipped through the vigilance of consular officers of the United States in (uba, the Labor Department was informed today in advices from agents of the State Department in Cuba % The Panaman steamship Elena Val- des fs belng detained in Havana be- cause of Irregularities in connection with the signing of the crew and failure of the master of the vessel, an American, to pay his former crew. An investigation showed, according to Consul Hurst at Hgvana, that the crew was composed of aliens Who were “obviously attempting to enter the Unlited States in evasion of the immigration act” The consulate is “convinced that this vessel has been engaged in rum running and allen smuggling.” There is also & suspicion that the Elena Valdes has smuggled arms into Mexico. The investigation, according to Mr. Hurst, “showed clearly a plot to allens into the United State: “Aliens of many national- ities, most of whom had just arrived in Cuba and few of whom had ever been to sea, or would be able to enter the United States as immigrants, were found enrolled in capacities about chich they had no knowledge what- oe Many did not know the capacity in which they were enrolled.” The activities In which the vessel is alleged to be engaged constitute, Secretary Davis says, one of the largest bars to enforcement of the immigration law. Under the seamen’s act seamen are allowed to land and remain in the United States fi a certain period, even though they are aliens. Many of them never go back to their vessels. SMOKE KILLS BABY.
