ITALIANS FUCK HERE IN DROVES dumber of immigrants Will Be Limited by the Capacity of Liners. STRICT C3HTR0L IH ITALY Thieve* at NaplM Get High Price* for American Pasaporta — Keen Competition for Foreign SHIpa. —Maintain Cloee -Inspection. Naples .— <L'he number of Immigrants to the -.United Stales till* year will only be limited by the capacity of the IStaamXblps, according to United States Consul Homer W. Boylngtou, who, has .bans here for 15 years and has a good knowledge of the situation. The Italian companies lost a good many steamships during the "far and have not yet been able to replace them, while the foreign vessels calling at Naples . and Genoa for immigrants have dwindled since the war to an almost negligible number. The consul aald that the Italian government had consented to permit snrIgeons In the United State* public health service to be present at the Inspection of /he Immigrants before embarkation. so ' that they will be able to sign the bills of health and stop the detention of the steamships on their arrival at the quarantine stnlion In New York. There have only been two cases at typhus In this port «fcd they were Greeks from Piraeus. In consequence of this the government has put a tight ring around Italy and no alien Immigrants are permitted to pass the frontier. The steamships leaving Italian ports for the United States now only carry Italians, and Poles, Czechs. Cronts, Greeks. Ukran_lan8, Roumanians and Other patlounlltles will have jo suil from some otfi- • er ports like Danzig, Bremen or Hamburg. The staff at the consulate -consists of 25 clerks, stenographers and Interpreters, etc., who are chiefly employed JjL handling the hundreds of immigrants who throng the bureau on the Via Santa Lucia all day long. Women with babies in their arms have precedence over all other applicants by^ord.ers of the consul. Under norf nafVconcMtiona the Immigrants get away within three months of the date of "their vises on the passports, but on account of the holding tip of the liners In New York through the typhus autre, tliey are now. fully i?lx montlis_ behind, according to the officials. Passports Closely Scrutinized. The greatest care is exercised at the consulate to see that no more get by with false passports or counterfeit vises. The Immigration authorities are also notified at New York to look out for the private marks on the passports, -which will be changed from time to tiuTe in case they get known to the Italian crooks who are making a fat living by fabricating passports and vises for Immigrants who may have some charges aguinst their character which woultjL prevent their ob"talning a vise on their dftssports at the American consulate. Two Americans who arrived from New York by the CanopJc had their . passports stolen and hnd to proceed t" Rome to obtain emergency papers at the United States legation after getting Identification certificates at the consulate here. fFbese stolen pussports. the officials sa>,. are sent to An-i-onu or to Cosetuui, which Is neftr Nit pies, and the seals and vises are taken off and used for other passports. A well-executed AAJse ' passport Is worth 1.400 llre^iiout S.'rfi "to $(8) United States currency, according to the rate of exchange, which fluctuates dally. At tiie consulate. Jt was said that these tjvo Stolen passports would fie) the . pickpockets who took them about - 1,000 lire. Passengers are wiM'lied »n landing In the . custom "• • • house to ihl, careful, of their pockethook* anil passports, as the Neapolitan purse snatchers are famous in i»o11ce. circles nil over T^ifrope for the dexterity of their fingers. . The police . were notified of the loss-, of a the pnssports belonging to the Two Americans, but tlioj" 'were not recovered. A" Intending Immigrants seeking American risks have to produce their penults to leave tlie country, military popers (If they arb males), vaccination certificate and the dossier from the chief, of police of their district to show- wjietliel any criminal charges huve , ever been preferred against them.. The American authorities have not Interfered with the Inspection at . the dock before embarkation, ns they left that to the" officlnls of the steamship companies.

There are so m«n> - young man walking about Naples now that It Is difficult to believe that Italy has Just emerged from a long war.

"• L^OR years this has been our hope — A to develop a small hot- water radi- « ator-boiler that would warm a modest d home as perfectly as our larger heating plants have warmed mansions, * cathedrals, and even the White House ° itself. , V ■ Arcola is the practical fulfilment r of that hope. Arcola is the^lSaby of a the American Radiator Company, a It is unlike any heating plant you , ° have ever seen. It is boUer, radiator e and water- heater combined — as hands J some as a fine phonograph and costr ing hardly any more, s Arcola creates and radiates warmth in the room where it is placed, and connected with American Radiators, U it will heat every other room and provide hot water for bathing and washl ing as well.

Comfort, security and health are Arcola-s gift; and it pays for itself in an amazingly short time. The price is so low it will surprise you — 50% higher last year than now. For the sake of your whole family— * your babies especially — go to your Heating Contractor and see our baby tod^y. ■ '. :«•

rThe red and yellow card * at the right is the* sigq of a Heating Qr Sanitary Engineer (formerly called Steamfitter or Plumber) who can show you ARCOLA. Look for it in his window. It will pay you to consult him twice a year as you do your Doctor or Dentist. To have him exairiine and report on your • heating and plumbing costs little. It may save you a very great deal.
