Mother and Child are Bnrned to Death The Father, Chief of the Tribe, Cats His Throat Happens Ten Miles South or McMlnnvllle. From Wednesday's Telegram. A harrowing iale of a tripnle trasedv in a gypsy camp, about ten miles south ot MoMinnviHe, was brought here last night by Frank Burroughs, a commer cial traveler. A band ot 40 gypsies, bound for Cali fornia, oamped on the scene of tbe trag edy last Saturday night, intending to proceed on their way the Monday morn ing following. Sunday forenoon, says Mr. Burroughs, a two-year-old ohild of Andrew Oetrander, tbe obief, fall into a fleroely raging Are, built ot fallen treea. Tbe soreams of the infant attracted the attention of its mother, who was only a dozen yards away. Grazed witb exoite nient at seeing ber little one being de voured by tbe flames, tbe woman thought lessly leaped into the firs in wbich both she and the,oliiid wer .burned to death in a few minutes. Oetrauder's efforts to save bis wife, who must have gone stark mad at witnessing tbe horrible fate of ber offspring, proving futile, be slashed bis throat witb a razor, bleeding to death in a short time. "I met tbe oaravan of gypsies late Monday afternoon, aa I was driving from MoMinnviHe to Lafayette," said Mr. Burroughs, "when the elder son ot Os- trander, a strapping fellow of 23 years, then tbe aoticg obief ot tbe tribe, halted me and voluntarily told me of tbe fear ful ooourrenoe of Sunday. These three lives, of oourse, count for nothing, aa tba world goes, yel it waa a pitiful trag edy, all the same. "Youog Ostrander told me that the ooroner of Yamhill county bad not been notified of tba three deaths, because Ibe tribe is governed by its own laws,' They bad tbe charred remains of tbe woman and ber child and ibe body of Ojtrandar in one ot the wagooa. Their remains will be lakeo to tbe Redwoods In San Mateo county, Cel.. where hundreds cf tba Romany have been interred lo lbs past 80 years." Dreadfally Nervosa.

Washington, Jan. 12. Tho senate to day briefly discussed tbe adverse re port by the pension committee on the bill to pension General Meade's two daughters. No action was taken, and after Wolcott of Colorado announced a speeob on tbe money question for next Monday, Fairbanks addressed tbe senate on the immigration bill. Fairbanks begun by referring to the im portance of guarding and preserving the high standard of the oountry'a popu lation and oitizensbip. The pending bill, he said, by imposing a moderate and reasonable ednoational teat nnon all immigrants over 16 years ot age, threw an additional safeguard about our popu lation and citizenship. "Prior lo 1875," be continued, "there were no restrictive laws except tbose prohibiting coolie trade. In my oninion the more drastio measures were adopted to repress tbis reprehensible traffic and convictB and women imported for im moral purposes were exoluded. Far more restrictive acts were passed aimics to reetriot the inflow of the morally and physically diseased. The preseooe of tbe restrictive acts upon the statute be oks has been beneficial, though the number wbo presented them lelvei at our ports and were excluded is compara tively Bma'l. But, doubtless, many were deterred from starting by knowledge of tbe laws in foroe. . "Beginning witb the last deoade, a obange ocourred in both tbe nationalitv and equality of our immigration. Tbose who were chiefly of the Slavonic oouo tries began to oome in, in great and in creasing numbers. Among them were many very desirable acquisitions, many from tbe better portions of Italy, Aus tria Hungary and other Eastern and Southern countries were educated and enterprising, but the larger per oent. was ill-fitted to beoome a part ot our population or to assume tbe privileges aod responsibilities of Amerioan oitizen sbip. They possessed a low order of intelligence and a degraded standard of life, and had no adequate Conception ot tbe marveloua signifioanoe ot onr instl tutions. " A rise in tbe rate of Immigration from Eastern and Southern Europe from 18 to 61 Jer cent, lo eight, years, ana a rail from Western and Northern countries from 64.5 to 86.7 per oent. in tbe same period may well lead os to pause and inquire whether the change is in ths oatioual interest. The decrease in immigration has been from countries wbiob hitherto sent os but a small per oent. ot illiterates, and tbe lnareaaa la from oonntries where tbe ignoranoe is a-restest. Thirty-nine and nine-tenths per oent. of thoss above 14 years of age onming from Austria-Oungary. Italy. Polaod aod Russia last year, could neither read nor write, while ooly 8.6 per oent. of tboae from tba United King dom, Franoe, Germany and Scandinavia were illiterate. Wbeo wa witness this inorease In the illiterate aooesaioos to oor population wa may well oall tba warning of George William Curtis: 'Let as bewsra how we wster our life blood.'" Io conclusion Fairbsnki Quoted statis tics tending to show tba exceeiive con tribution of tbe oountry'a foreign popu- Irtlon lo tba number of Inmates of alms houses, penitentiaries, losses aarlnms and reformatory inatitutlons.
