PORTS FLOODED WITH STOWAWAYS Seiroui Problem for Immigration and Customs Officials MANY WOMEN AMONG THEM International Stowaway Ring Operat- Ino In all the Chief Ports ef Europe and Collecting Big Profits en IU Promlee to Ship Immlgrante In Hid- ing to the United Btatee— Concealed In Meet Unexpected Placee—New Ruling Stops Traffic Immigration and customs authori- ties In New Tork are contending with an unprecedented Influx of atowawaya from Europe. 'Since the war a large part of Europe seems bent on coming to thle country, whether possessed of the necesssry passage money or not. and as might be expected an oblig- ing organisation has grown up te help them do It, writes Frederic J. Haskln n the Chicago News. An internation- al atowaway ring—a sort of Stowa- way Limited—now Is operating- In all of the chief ports of Europe, collecting big profits on Its promise to ship Im- intermits in hiding to America. Tbe difficulties of landing at Bills Island do not concern these professional hid- era. - They merely put the trusting on board In charge of one of their sailor accomplices, and collect their 'ee. Some ut, the sailors, of course, work alone, but In such risky business t Is much safer to work with the ring. liefore the war the. cost of stoernge transportation across the Atlantic was ton $23 to S40.. Today It ranges any- here from $120 to $HX), a prohibitive rice to ninny would-be Immigrants, nxlous to escape the awful poverty nd after-war depression of Europe, ucli disheartened peasants are easy rey for the stowawuy gang. \You an bo hidden on hoard ship and sup- lied with food and water and it will ost you only $50,\ they are told, nd of course they grasp at the op- >rt unity. Hence during the lost year stowa- ays have been coming In droves, inietiiiies as niiiny as a dozen curried the hold of one ship. They repre- nt all types ami conditions of mnn- ml, from desperate criminals to Im- •.-unions but respectable professional en, but they ure mostly unsullied orkers. Searching for them [a like untlng for the proverbial needle In hnystack.

Then the announcement tha^ tlie ship's Interior wus to be gassed was mega phoned about the decks. Only then did eleven husky stowawnyl creep out from hiding, preferring detection to death. In some rases though the whip's authorities have not been so considerate lu announcing current events, and stowuways have been futully gassed In their hiding places. How the Ring Works. From the little that has been learned regarding the stowaway ring. It K ii probnble they huve confed- erates on nearly every ship leaving, a south-Kuropeun port, as well as on many leaving north-Kuropeun ports, lu some instances the stowaway has been required to bring his own food but usually this Is supplied to him while on hoard. If found by those not In the ring's service he Is Immediately taken liefore (he captain, who decides his fate. Sometime* the. treatment la extremely severe, lie may be placed lu a pen and given only bread and wuter, or he may be chained uncom- fortably to a post, but In uiost cases he Is apt to be put to work. Some- times HO tunny stowaways ure found on the ship that the cuptuln puts them under lock and key—ii wise precaution since It bus been found that many of them are desperate criminals who Inivit bveu encouraged by the police authorities to leave, vurhnis.parts of Kurope. One captain keeps himself lu excellent physical trim by Hinging an energetic ttst battle with every stowaway brenjb! into his otiw-e. AS a result very few NtownwuyH luive ap- peared recently on his ship. OOSaStoaaUl a stowaway get* uhoard without the aid of the ring or the crew or iinyliody rise, depend- ing only on his own Ingenuity to see him through. One HIII'II WVS nil Kng- llah lud of nrt.vn, who hud a round, cherubic tact and wore good clothes. in choosing his quartan hu selected the most comforlahlc ones he could Mini namely, tlui noft rug beneath tlni ciiptulii's bed, where be got along very nicely during the entire trip. In the daytime he moved fearlessly about the deck and chatted pleasant- ly with the other pnssengem. Dur- ing the |»a| day he hud appeared In the dining rootn and wan assigned to a tuhle as politely as though he had paid Ids pilotage money. Not Mill the ship reached this side urn) the passenger list was checked was The jrouug stowuwuy delected, and then, so agreeable had he made himself, that the passengers chipped lu aud paid for bis passage across.

Mm. Sallle Orayum and Mrs. Mollne Bes- wlclc, sisters, were reunited In Colo- rado Springs, Colo. Por two years they lived within ten blocks of each other and perhaps passed on the street After their marriages the sisters corresponded for a time, but the let- ters became fewer mid fewer -\and 20 yeurs ago ceased. The husbands died and the widows married again. Bleven years ago Mrs. Beswlck moved with her family to Colorado Springs and two years ago the Orayuma took up their residence In the same city, about ten blocks away from the Beswlck home. A>. X few^vweeks ago Mrs. Beewlcfc ad- dressed a letter to her slater under the name abe took when married the first time. A married daughter ef Mre.

Cer- tain plants and flowers close up tight- ly on the approach of rain. They give ample warning. The common dande- lion does this, and also the leaves of the white clover.
