WARSAW. March 22. By Mail.) Crowds of from 2,000 to 3,000 persons have been besieging daily the vise bureau of the American consulate here to obtain the consul's vise of their passports to the United States. For months there have been large num bers of applicants waiting at the bu reau every morning, but since the lat ter part of February the crowds have increased, owing to the vague and dis turbing rumors which have been cir culated thruout Poland of restrictive legislation pending the United States congress. i Herded together by relatives or or ganizations endeavoring to gt permission for these persons to enter an American port before the rumored leg islation became effective, the hope ful emigrants 'invaded Warsaw by ev ery tram.

I Unable to: obtain accomodations lodging houses or hotels owing to the crowded condition of the city, many of them "made their headquarters in the railroad stations where they slept upon the floors or on benches or chairs. The number of vises granted by the Americans here is about 200 a day: This is much less than formerly and the reduction is due to the Polish passport frauds uncovered sometime ago and also to the frequent presentation of fraudulent decuments of identification, For a -time it was possible to pur chase a counterfeit Polish passport for a few dollars, but most of the ringleaders of this fraudulent plan have been arrested and are awaiting trial in the Polish courts.

They all kicked sayin' it wasn't dignified but the fellow that given the order hid sailed for home so there wasn't nd gettin around it. Jimj finally went down to the bath house all out of sorts. He bawled out bill a dozen privates fer salutta' with pi cake of soap their hands an' reduced a corporal for splashin.

HavLnf regained some of his self peck! this way he took off his clothes an' got in the shower. As la' major, Jim had most oiks scared. As a man under a shower bath thought he was the funniest sketch they'd seen since Charlie Chap tin. A' new bunch come in an' started to kid him. When he told 'em he was an officer they thought he was tryin'ito be funny.

Somebody stuck a cake of soap in his eye an then they begun pushin him around till he fell d-own aa skinned bis knee on a duck board.

Fer a while I was the life of the tell in stories an what not. I'd never hatf such a good time. Then, while I happened to be standin' around wonderin how I could liven thingsj up some more, I saw a fellow in thej looain' glass across the room that made me laugh right out. Yet at the same time I was sorry fer him. His trousers looked like a man what's ready to start in a sack race.

The tails of his clawhammer was almost touchin' the ground. An' his collar didn't touch his neck all around. I looked around to see who be was. but he'd got away tn the Jam. Then I walked round the room to get another jlook at him but couldnt find him.
