In 1897, Rudolph and Milly were not admitted into America, because they were not legally married. They refused to formalize their relationship.

The matter received front-page coverage in the national press. The Commissioner-General of Immigration, the former Knights of Labor President Terence V. Powderly, advised the couple to get married to settle the matter, but they refused and were deported back to England on the same ship they had arrived on.
