Tedford was convicted in 1904 of

Accident Reopens Case.
\ bitter remark by a disappointed !
attorney, by a queer coincidence in the j
<*ourt of Justice Olson, pried open a j
number of memory storehouses and j
he case of Joshua Ted ford was re- I
vlved and the law was again on his
Trail. Although it had slept for seven |
yearn, the hunt for facts was relent-
esaly tuken up. It was said that ,
Ted ford was not to blame because the |
aw did not exact its dues. But the !
penalty must be paid even now.
The city directory told the story < .*
what Tedford had been doing with the
ime which belonged to the State.
This was the entry: *
‘ Joshua Tedford, supt., -39 Souiii I
State street, residence 6024 (’hamplaii I
avenue.”
In his seven years of liberty he had
tmade his way from house detect-
five at one of the largest iikii'k fur
nishing .stores iu the world to auper-
'tntendent of the entire establishment. !
George Lytton. tiead of the store, to
day declared that he improved faster
Than his father or he could promote
the ex-policeman.
To-day,” he said, "we trust him i
with everything He is absoliP !y
pate gold.”
Too Busy to Worry.
This strange victim of circuai- i
stances was found to-day absorbed In
rhe duties of his position at the store,
kiln attitude was that of a man too
busy with important things of the
moment to worry himself and others
with his own private affairs. He was
Mi the midst of a fire drill on the thir< !
floor of the store. Hundreds of em
ployees. carrying fire extinguish*!?,
pike poles, robes and fire buckets,
dashed hither and thither under hi • j
e-harp eye. Finally he smiled and
jshouted. "All right, boys '* and th*: '
drill ended.
After some hesitation, he issued h
short statement and then turned
aiwaj with Mr. Lytton. and then w nf ,
into the latter’s office for a confer 1
♦*nce.
He presented lie appearance of t ie j
prosperous business man. He is over
six feet tall, large, blond and hand
some. His shoulders are square and
his head is erect. He went about nis
work apparently oblivious of the fact
ihat what he had so carefully budded
seemed about to tumble.

sands of guests who will crowd into,
this city exposition will be accorded
fair treatment in th. matter of hotel
accommodations and rates.
Already 186 conventions ar- booked
to come to San Francisco during the
year 1915. The officials having these
conventions in charge already are
seeking reservations and demanding
to know in advance the rates to
charged. The exposition direct ora,
after three months of negotiations
witlj-the hotel managers of Sun Fran
cisco, have been unable to come h>
any agreement as to reservations nd
the rates to be charged during 1915 by
the hotels in this tUy.
Decide on Drestic Step.
Failing In their efforts to reach an
agreement by which they could guar
antee reasonable rates to visitors to
Han Francisco in 1915, the exposition
directors decided to take the drastic
step already outlined by providing for
the erection of a magnificent hotel,
which will at least provide accommo
dations for the delegates to the 18*»
conventions already booked for this
city during the exposition year.
In providing for the erection of this
hotel the exposition directors believe
that they have removed the one and
only obstacle that threatened the suc
cess of the exposition.
Wanted Decision on Rates.
As long ago as last August a. joint
meeting of the exposition dire -
tors and hotel men was held.
The exposition directors al tint
time requested that the hotel men
decide upon the rates to bo charged
to exposition visitors, and also to
guarantee that a certain percentage id
the rooms would bo reserved for the
use of the delegates to the many con
ventions that had accepted the city’s
invitation to attend conventions m
San Francisco in 1915.
The hotel men refused to come to
any agreement.

NEW YORK. Doc. 12. Opening •*
conference on immigration before
the People’s Institute at Cooper I'nion
Cyrus L. Sulzberger amused the big
audience with stories or* some of the
reasons given by the LllL Island au
thorities for deporting newly arrived
aliens. Eugenics, said Mr. Sulzber
ger, was one of the strong arguments?
of the immigration restriction]#!.
“A Russian woman arriving on Oc
tober 8,” he said, “was certified to as
feeble-minded at Ellis Island and or
dered deported. £iie was examined by
a physician at Bellevue, who declared
she was not feeble-minded at all.
"Then the Federal inspectors exam
ined her again and said that while
she was perfectly sane she seemed t»>
be weak in her abstract conceptions.
‘ They Slid that she had no idea,
although she was a seamstress, of
what a yard or an inch were, forget
ting that outside of this country and
England the terms are never used.
Given Jigsaw Puzzle.
“Another woman, 48 years old, was
given a jig.-aw puzzle to put together.
She worked oyer it for awhile and
then saki: ‘This is for children; let
me bake or cook to show what I can
do.’ She was pronounced feeble
minded. Then the decision was re
versed and finally she was admitted.
“A man was asked; If a man
should offer to give you all the money
you wanted what day in the week
would you select for the gift'” Here
was the answer, ’Why ’should a
strange man give me money?’
“That strikes me as being a pretty
pertinent reply. Still another man
was asked:
“‘Does God speak to you?’ and the
answer—a noteworthy one, to my
mind—was this: ‘J am not worthy
that God should speak to me.’
Would Deport Christ.
‘ It seems to me that if Mosfes or
Isaiah or Jesus or Mohamet should
come to Ellis Island they would be
likely to be deported as feeble
minded.
"There was an Irishman who came
to the island and was asked how
many legs a horse has. ‘Eight,’ he
replied. ‘One at each corner and two
on each side.’
“ ‘Don’t you think that is a foolish
answer?’ he was asked.
"The Irishman replied with more
wisdom than is shown by the United
States officials when he said: ‘A fool
question deserves a fool answer. ’ ’’
Louis R. Marshall, speaking on
“What the Immigrant Brings to Us,”
made an eloquent plea for the immi
grant, who, he said, brought new
strength to the country.

CINCINNATI, Dec. 13.—Former
Congressman Herman P. Goebel, a
director of Longview Hopital for the
Insane, said that a former business
man of Cincinnati offered to pay the
county $4,000 in return fora life com
mitment to Longview.
“The man making the offer was
perfectly sane,” declared Judge Goe
bel. “but longed for the quiet of the
asylum. He offered $4,000 for a life,
residence at the Institution. He had
sons and daughters, but they could
not agree. He had the money in
