ADMISSION TO AMERICA $25

Secretary Nagel Upholds Ruling of Immigration Commissioner. New York, July 27.—Secretary Nagel has upheld the ruling of Commissioner of Immigration Williams that an alien must have $25 in his possession or be refused admission to the country. The ruling, it was explained, is not formal but cautionary, and already is having good effect on the steamship agents who now are selling tickets to desirables only.
