Ooncornp, May 16.—Frank ©. Almy was ; hanged here this morning. Thedrop fell at : o' clock. A large number of citizens came from Han- overonthe early morning train to witness the hanging, among them being E. L. Warden, brother of the murdered girl, and O. B. Hewitt, the student who shot Almy in the Warden barn before he was captured. The execution was a bungiing job. Almy’s feet touched the floor when he went through the drop apd be was slowly strangled to death. It was a horrible scene and although all New England wanted the wretch to meet Geathon the scaffold, it made the stoutest heart turn sick to witness the tortures of the slow death which expiated the murder of Christie Warden. ALMY’S REMARKABLE RECORD. The identification of Aimy as Abbott made the man who was hanged to-day one of the most remarkable murderers ever known. New England was the scene of all his crimes. Within the past fifteén years a youth reared | 1 1 a law-abiding community has gone out | froin its schools and churches to enter upon @ life that began with stealing, passed on to Durglary and ended in murder. Ten of the ' prisons and yet the prisoner was not 85 years age until January, 1892. The murderer’s ther, Harris Abbott, was one of the Abbotts of Abbott’s Mis, the son of Eliphalet Abbott, a wealthy, proud and pompous man- wfacturer, better known as Duke“ Abbott than by his real name. The convicted mur- derer is equally well connected on his mother’s side. Here are some facts which interestingly supplement the story wired to last Sunday’s Post-DisPaTcH: ‘Ti, January, 1957, at Salem, Mass., was born the son, destined to bring lasting sorrow to himself and all who became associated with =e.

The indignant farmer was a resolute man. but the determined look of that 16-year- old boy, with his deadly weapon, appalled him, and he went home without a word. In the fall of 1874, when Abbott was 17 years old, he was arrested for entering a store a stealing forty silver watches, valued at $400, and twenty gold pins valued at $25. He was arraigned for burglary in the court at Plymouth, Nov. 5, 1876, and pleaded lity tothe charge. Abbott was sentenced 2 four years in the State prison at Concord, and was committed Nov. 14, 1874.

His next appearance was atthe nome of his aunt at Cambridgeport, and a few days after this, about June 6, # he applied for work among the farmers, giv- ing the name of Frank C. Almy. CHRISTIE WARDEN’S MURDER. On July 11, 1890, he applied for work at the farm of Andrew Warden of Hanover. Here he met Christie Warden. The story of his. unsuccessful attempts to win her regard and her firm, yet kind declination to accept a man who could tell nothing of his ante- nts, was fully told in last Sunday’s POST-DISPATCH. On the ist of April, 1891, Alniy’s time expired and he was not re- engaged. The famliy, who had become alarmed at his violent temper, were glad to have him go, but tried to send nim away in good humor. After leaving Mr. Warden, Almy returned to Salem. He went around among the farmers to 2 work, but every- one sald, I don’t want you On June 14, 1891, ‘he was hiding in Andrew Warden’s barn. At all the places where he had stopped while away, he had showed np pe of Christie and Fanny Warden, and isplayed the necktie case given him at Christmas by My Christie. There is doubt of his infatuation for the 1. The shocking story of Almy’s last crime has durnt itself into the hearts of every house- hold. A pure, innocent and noble woman was seized from ther mother’s side and mur- dered witha ferocity suchas the jungles of India cannot rival. If the reader pictures to himself, just outside the pretty village 28 Dartmouth College overlooks the countr winding road that creeps in between ius dotted with farmsand then winds downa — 4 into the meadow fringed by under - he will gather some idea of the scene of this thrilling tragedy. About 9:30 o’clock on the evening of July 17 Mrs. Warnen, accompanied y her two daughters and a friend, was returning home along this deserted road. Mrs. Warden had lived im this very locality for nearly forty — and just half a mile beyond, on her usband's acres, her family had grown up ace and contentment. The on through an archway of trees, upa little hill, then walked on down toward the meadow road. Their course ahead was plainly discernible, although no sound gave warning that death was lurking about them. A stump fence at this point separated re- cently cut woodland from the road and a little way ahead was a pair of bars, which was used to keep stray stock and trespassers out. Closetothis gateway was a large tree that cast a deep shadow upon the ground be- neath it. The ladles approached, Mrs. War- den and Miss Louise F. Goodell, a neighbor, leading, and Christie Warden with her younger sister, Fanny, bringing up the rear, ALMY STANDS BEFORE THEM. sufdenly the figure of a manstoodin the roadway and faced them and a chill of terror He said: ‘**‘Mrs. Warden, youand Fanny may moveon with safety. ‘T shall not harm you unless you in- terfere with me, and if you do I will shoot ou dogs. Then turning tothe sisters behind’ hé exclaimed: ‘*Ch have come thousand miles to meet you, and now our time is short. Thereupon the s ker dréw from nis breast a revolver, which he cocked. As the weapon clicked the frightened women saw the barrel shining inthe moonlight. It was a moment of horrible suspense. The four women stood petrified andthe stillness was only broken by the stranger saying in a harsh, cold voice: Mrs. Warden, you know me, I believe. I am Frank Almy, ‘and youhave never known me to break my word. Move on or I will shoot. Move on, I say!’’ The man then raised his left arm and cov- ered the aged woman with the army revolver that he carried, again threatening the pen- alty of delay. Not a muscle moved. The mother’s love was too strong to be cowed down by stich dangers. Thelady with her, however, ran up the road as fast as she could 40 tor 200 yards and then waited, This made the mother falter, and when she saw Almy walk upto Christie and seize her by the arm she felt that she must get aid, realizing her inability to protect her children from the fiend before them. Christie up to this time had (been so over- powered by fear that she was scarcely able to move, She clung to her sister, who locked her in an embrace that was the desperate effort of loved ones not to be parted. Almy, however, lost no timein carrying out his design. He seized Christie by the left shoulder, and locking his left arm around her neck, he placed thecold muzzle of his weapon against the breast of his victim’s young defender, and hissed between his teeth: **I have hated you, Fan, and unless you let go of Christie, I will blow you into eternity.’’ The young girl knew he meant all he said, but thinking only of her sister, she an- swered: Snoot, then, I will not let her go.“ What inspired the murderer not to fire bis revolver intothe body of his young oppo. nent can only be explained by the fact at her feet struck uneven ground at this mo- ment and she fell, nearly carrying her sister with her. This was Almy’s opportunity, and grasp- ing Christie around the waist, he dragged her to the bars, which he lowered, and pulled her over into the woodland beyond. At this point the ground was cleared, and save occa: sional large rocks, was smooth, When once inside, he threw his victim to the ground and then grasping her firmly by the feet and skirts he began dragging her inland towards a brook that was situated about 200 yards from the highway. Ashe advanced with his burden he kept exclaiming: Stand back orl will shoot. Almy continued to drag his burden towards the ubderbrush, which he presently gained, after Christie’s outer clothing had been t- erally torn from her body. The thicket gained, Almy ended the terror of his victim with two bullets in her prostrate body. When the sister and the heipthat had been sum- moned reached the spot Christie was dead and Almy was gone. Smoking revolver in hand, he returned to his hiding place in the Warden barn and was there looking out be- tween tho boards when the lifeless body of his victim was being carried into the sorrow- stricken home. There he remained in con- cealment for more than a month, foraging about the country at night for his means of 1 and often visiting the grave ot ristie. no around her in women passe CAPTURE AND TRIAL. ug. 18, Mrs. Warden, the mother, found some empty cans under the barn and notified the authorities.

Sermovr, Ind., May 16.—Lou Trenck, who murdered Henry Faedler a week ago last Sunday, was hangedat Brownstown at 2a. m., by a mob from this place. The lynching party was composed of the sarae men who hanged Turley yesterday morning at Bedford for the murder of Conductor Price. At midnight an engine and two cabooses, which were captured in the same manner as those taken Sunday night, were loaded with alarger party than that which pulled out over the Evansville 4 Richmond road sun -- day. This train was on the Ohio & Mississippi Railroad. The run to Buewnstown was made quickly. Arriving at the place the men had to walk a mile to the jail. Thesherif had left the jail and the guard had no keys. The doors were batted down with sledge hammers. It took the men only a few min- utes to get Trenck out. He was taken to the west side of the Court-house, where he was asked if he had anything to say. He replied he did not think he was receiving fair treat- ment, and begged God to bless his soul. The noose was placed over his head and the rope was thrown over the limb of a tree and the murderer was pulled skywards at 1:20 a. m. The crowd returned to this city at 2 o'clock. The heavily masked and well armed men who participated in the lynching were well pleased with their work. The murderers of Price and Faedler having been hung the peo- ple are satisfied. THE ENOCH ARDEN OF EVERYDAY LIFE. NEOSHO, Mo., May 16.—Moses Lock ison trial in the Circuit Court here charged with the murder of Thomas L. Whalen at Saginaw. in this county, on Feb. 18, 1892.

The chances of a favorable settlement of the differences between the various patriotic organizations who contemplate having Fourth of July parades are becoming brighter. For a time it was feared that there would be at least four different organizations and as many parades. The misunderstand- ing has now narrowed down to two—the Nation’s Birthday Association of St. Louis and the Columbian Parade and Fourth of July Association. Messrs. Samuel, Warner, Harlow and Guinzburg, representing the Nation’s Birth- day Association, called on Mayor Walbridge this morning. Mr. Samuel acted as spokes- man of the party, and reminded the Mayor that last year he was a member of the or- ganization and worked very hard for its suc- cess, There are nowtwo organizations of the same kind, in the city,“ said Mr. Samnel, ana our object in calling is to see if they can not be brought together. We do no not want two parades and we believe that they have wthe same object that we have—that of teaching patriotism, ad- vertising the city nd fittingly celebrating the Nation’s birth Mayor Walb said that he had been ap- roached by four different committees and Rad refu each one of them his direct aid o agree to do all he could officially to make the day a success. ‘ **] myself do not beliéve,”’ said the Ma or, that a dozen little Mrecracker processions is what we want.

Notable Women Read Papers on Topics * of Interest to Their Groups—Con- gresses of Every Sort in Progress To- Day at World’s Fair City—Attendance at the Show Very Small-Laborers Demanded Their Pay. Curcaco, Hl., May 16.—The delegates to the Women's Congress started in bright and early this morning for a hard day’s work. The programme for the week comprises a four-hour morning session each day, a visit to the World’s Fair each afternoonand a three-hour session in the evening, and y of the delegates are already beginning to wonder just ‘‘where they will be at’’ by the time the final session is reached on Saturday night. Mrs. May Wright Sewall presided over the department congress on dress reform, and it was here that expectation was on tip-toe. Lucy Stone, a pioneer reformer, Frances M. Steele, Annie Jenness Miller, the apostle of the modern movement, Octavia Bates and Frances W. Leiter were announced as speak- ers, and a large audience sager to inspect the ‘‘bloomer’’ and divided skirt in actual service gathered ih the hall. A ripple of ex- citement passed over the audience when Mrs. Sewall advanced on the stage. She wore a dress reform costume, the no- ticeable ‘‘reform’’ feature being short skirts. During the morning urs. Sewall had been flitting about the corridors greatly to the ad- miration of spectatofs, but she attracted the most attention when she advanced tothe stage in Columbus Halland took her stand beside Charlotte Emerson Brown, She worea closely fitting dark blue dress with full skirts about eighteen inches from the ground. Below the dress and incasing a serviceable pairof walking shoes were high dlue gaiters. Mrs. Brown hau just called the meeting to order when Mrs. Sewall arose to make sevefal announcements. Possibly the audience gave. more attention to the costume than the words, but her retirement was greeted by applause. A number of others who were not called to appear so conspicuously wore similar costumes to that of Mrs. Sewall, not- ably Miss Rachael Foster Avery. On the platform behind Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Sewall, apparently in sympathy with the reform idea, but not yet personally \Gemonstrating it, were Mrs. Margaret E. arker ot Dundee, Scotland; Dr. la M’Logier, President of Sorosis, New York; Mrs. Elizabeth B. Harbert and other widely known women. An interesting paper upon the ‘‘Civil and Social Evolution of Woman’’ was read by the erable Elizabeth Cady Stanton of New York, After this supject had been ably dis- cussed by a number of delegates’ Marie Stromberg of Russia presented a paper upon the Evolution of the Russian Woman, in which she traced the gradual rise of the sex in her native country, socially and inteilectu- ally, for the past century. Politics was the theme of the gathering in the big hall of Columbus, where the audience numbered about 2,000. Jane Cobdun Unwin, representative of the Woman’s Franchise League of England, opened the proceedings with a paper by Miss Brown of London upon Women in the Municipal Government, and which gave a succinct review of the struggle of the women of England for poilt- ical rights, and of the measure of success that had so far crowned their efforts, and Ida A. Harper of Indiana told something about the Political Influence of Women in American Municipalities.’’ These, however, were only twoof some fifteen separate and distinct congresées that were in full swing this morning. In Hall Seven, the Congress of the Eastern Star, a branch of Masonry to which the female relatives of Master Masons aye alone eligible for membership, was called to order by the Most Worthy Grand Matron Mrs. Mary 0. Sneddon. The session after prayer and musical exercises, was devoted to addresses of welcome by the past officers The congresses in other halls included one of the National Committee of the Youn Women’s Christian Association, the Nationa Council of Women of the United States, and the Women’s National Alliance. Other con- gresses had reference to education, religion and industry. Before visiting the Fair this afternoon the delegates will be tendered a reception at the Illinois Club by the Women’s Club of Chicago, and for which a total of 5. 000 invitations have been issued. The average paid attendance at the Fair so far has not been much over 17,000 fally. ,» which is far below the number necessary o meet even the operating expenses of the Exposi- tiontosay nothing of the millions of half dollars torepay the bondholders and stock- holders of the greatenterprise.

The twenty-four carpenters and staff workers erecting the band pavilions in administra- tion plaza who struck yesterday for back pay are still out. The men have not been. paid for three or four weeks and another month’s pay will de due on the 4th. Thecontractors have been putting them off from aay to day | with the information that they will be paid when the exposition gives them the money due on the contract. Many of the contractors are beh ind in their payments and as they tell the workmen they cannot get their money from the treasury the beliefis gaining ground among the la- borers that the Exposition is without money.

The body was found in the river by two fisherman and brought to Sing Sing dock. The Coroner has been notified and will hold an inquest.

C., May 15.—For some weeks past reports have been in circulation in the Interior Department which have brought into serious question the official con- duct of W. E. Simonds, late Commissioner of Patents. Several days ago some of the more promi nent firms of patent attorneys in this city wrote aletter to Commissioner Seymour, stating that they had received information from a source believed to be trustworthy that certain applications in the celebrated telephone case of Daniel Drawbaugh in the secret archives of the Patent Office had been copied under the authority of Mr. Simonas, while Commissioner, by parties outside of the Patent Office, all of which was contrary to law. They asked that an official investi. gation be made and that they be notified of the result so they might take such action as the interests of their clientg might seem to warrant. Upon the matter coming to the attention of Secretary Smith he immediately ordered an investigation, which it is understood, is prac- tically completed. It is stated, however, that the forthcoming report of the investi- gation will contain facts of a character not easily explained, — It is also rumored that other important a p- plications pending in the Patent Office have also been copied in violation of law. It is further stated that during the latter part of Mr. Simond's administration he compiled a pamphiet containing ninety-six pages of closely printed matter 2 Condensed Treatise on the Law of Patents. This pam phiet, which contains approximately 55, 000 words, is said to have deen type-written by Government clerks during office hours. Other allegations of an equally serious nature are made by persons who claim to be in a position to know the facts. O NO, NOT A JUNKET. WASHINGTON, May 16.—The Territorial In- spection Committee of the Senate will meet in Chicago on June 10, and immediately start upon its extended Western tour. It will finish with Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and Oklahoma before the solstice and then, as the weather will be hot enough for any- body, will probably sail for Alaska, nota bad summer outing, and with, ofcourse, nothing at the ‘*junket’’ in it. party wili be chaperoned Charles B.

At present he occupies the position of private secretary to Gov. Russell, of Massachusetts, and is said to possess considerable executive ability. Secretary Carlisle to-day appointed J. 8.

O., May 16.— The outlook for a war with China is now regarded in na- val circles as not unfavorable. It is believed that the Emperor will re- sent the conclusion reached by the Supreme Court, and will issue a decree enforcing strict rules against the entry of any more Americans into Chinaand probably onpering the removalof our missionaries out of his territory under pain of forcible de- portation. Meanwhile there is danger of in- gurrections of Chinese against the white im mi nts, which the imperial authorities will be unable to check, These, taken together with the outbreaks which the attempt to enforce the Geary law on our West coast will bring about, it is thought will put the two nations on sucha footing as to make war inevitable. The de- cision is a great blow to the Chinese legation here, where it has been: hoped down to the last moment that the act would be declared | unconstitutional. NEW POSTMASTERS. WASHINGTON, D.

NRW Tonk, May 16.—Cbinatown accepts the decision of the Supreme Oourt on the Geary law glumly, but expects that something wil turn ap to prevent wholesale deportation. Lee Wah, who was one of the agitators of the Chinese Equal Rights League, and who is in that to He was ut- terly unable to talk and his whole manner imparted an expression ot mental deficiency, He was sent to the Philadelphia Hospital, where the physicians at once discovered he was drugged. Aftertwo months treatment his system recovered from the shock and he began to prattle merrily in baby English, proving himself to be a child of entirely normal intelligence. The child was putin charge of a respect - able family and though carefully watched over by the society he was not the object of any sensational interest until the following 7 1 wag received by Mr. Crews regarding m: Sin—I wonder what poor old Sallie would say if she knew where her littie pet boy was now. If it those who took part in the wicked plot to destroy the little darling aud failing in that to abandon him in the heart of a great city were exposed, what a sensation it would create throughout the eountry. They think they have cheated him out of his in- beritance, but the truth will ceme out yet. More than this 1 dare not say at present. . 7* The letter is written in a neat hand, evi- dently by a woman of refinement. It was mailed from St. Louis, and the writer, whoever she was, maybe knows the child’s history. A strange thing is that the boy when he recovered his power of speech cried for his Aunt Sallie, and whenever he sees anyone in grief will run to them and say, Poor Aunt Sallle. He must have deen gently reared, for young as he is he had been taught to say **thank you“ for a favor and had a ready good morning“ even for his new-found friends at the beginning of the day. The clew is slight, but it is a true one, and ifthe mystery about the boy ever comes to light it must be through ‘‘Justitia,’’ who wrote the letter from St. Louis. Headgoar for Man and Child.

At the latter observation station there are already % steerage passengers who were exposed to the contagion on the steamships Gerra and Lahn, which arrived last week. Now Swinburne Island must re- ceive the overfiow. More than 1,000 persons, the passengers and crew of the French steamship Alesia, will be transferred to the islands to-day. Before sunset there will be 1,500 men and women isolated and doomed to spend at least fourteen days under observation. There was a veritable field day of precau- tionary work at Quarantine yesterday. The Alesia arrived on Sunday morning from Naples. She bad. beem twenty days at sea. Her Captain reported one death from heart disease and one mild case of smallpox. The smallpox patient, Camille Didest!, was progressing favorably. Dr. Jenkins at once decided on an investigation. In a few hours a second case was discovered and the patient was remhved at once, This increased the necessity for extreme precaution. Vaccination was begun on Sunday, but yes- terday the bulk of the work was done. he Alesia carried 964 steerage passengers and forty-two officers and seamen. With few exceptions the passengers were vaccinated. FAIRBANK’S CLAIRETTE Sor is the most perfect article of its kind that is made and defies competition. Ask your grocer for it. TRIED TO KILL HER.

Few of the committees of the Smoke Abate- ment Association are yet ready to report re sults of their canvass for members, although nearly allofthem report satisfactory prog- ress and great willingness on the part of those appréached to take a hand in the good work. The Wholesale Shoe Committee ob- tained sixty-nine members in a little over two hours, and of these sixty-nine no less than sixty-one paid the entrance fee to the committee, and thus saved further trouble inthe way of collecting. Mr. Sam M. Ken- nard, Treasurer of the association, was ara at work this morn- ing issuing instructions to committees and tabulating results. I wish the Post- DISPATCH would call attention to the fact, he said, that when we fixed the subscrip- tion at $5 we had no idea that large firms and business houses would hand ina solitary subscription for the entire house. A corpor- atio tha president, secretary, treasurer and ken or twelve heads of departments, ought to hand in at least as many subscrip- tions and, it seems to me, that every one earning a salary or in business in the city oughtto be glad to contribute. Certainly every householder will make a great deal more than $5 out of the work we are do- ing, and it isa to sup firm subscribing $5. dsurd fulfills its obligations Iam asking the committee not to take any strictly firm or corporation subscriptions at all, but to make a point of securing individ- ual subscriptions from the officers and pro- rietors. If this is donde we shall not be ong in obtaining the 2,000subscribers we went, dut if we are to limit ourselves to cor- poration subscri and only get one from sach house the work will be much heavier.’’ Mr. A. D. Brown, Chairman of the F Committee, indorsed Mr. Kennard’s state- ment and went him one better. ‘‘Our house, said he, contributed twenty sub- scribers before anything like a man-to-man canvass was attempted, and there wasn’t one of the subscribers who did not feel he was obtaining good value for his 8 committees seem falling in satisfactorily, but they will the work and enable us to complete it this week if they will re- each afternoon as early as possible to he treasurer, Mr. S.

' Sar Francisco, Cal., May 16.—A thousand OF more persons assembled at Third and Market streets last night to celebrate the de- ‘livery of the ant!-Chinese decisfon. The _ Chief adaresses were by the anti- Chinese agi- tators, Dr. C. O. O'Donnell and Dennis Kear- * all de driven out. “ney, but neither speaker succeded in arous- lung a high degree of enthusiasm. It was deeided to parade next Saturday night, and the Presidents of all the labor unions were named as a committee of arrangements. Rev. Dr. Condit, the head of the Presby- terian Chinese Missions on the California coast, who has been engaged in Chinese mis- sion work for over twenty years and has spent much of the time in South China, was interviewed relative tothe effect of the Su- preme Court’s decision in China. He said: ‘‘I feel that an attempt to en- force the provisions of the Geary act, so far astodeport the Ohinese now in the United States, would be a very dangerous thing. I should expect that immediately upon learn- ing of an attempt to do this the Chinese Gov- ernment would order all Americans to leave China at once. Every American buliding in _ China would be destroyed, either torn down : or burned, and the killing of many American ’ presidents could hardly be prevented. The first move would, no doubt, be the recalling of the Chinese Ambassadors and Consuls now in the United States and the severingof all Gipiomatic relations. Of course further traffic between China and this country would be out of the question. I am certain that serious. trouble will follow the enforcement of the law, because I understand thoroughly the Chinese nature and Chinese methods of revenge. Then, I have something else to judge by in regard to tals question in the shape of a letter from D. R. Martin, President of the Imperial College of Pekin. In this letter Dr. Martin says that he called not long ago upon Li Hung Chang, the Chinese Prime Minister, and asked him the very questions you are now asking me, and the only reply that Li Hung Chang would makewas that the Americans would Li Hung Chang acts for the Emperor. He is virtually the Govern- ment. The Chinese are sometimes slow to act, but when once aroused they are the most vindictive people on the face of the earth.“ When asked whether the action of the Geary law had already worked an injury to American -interests_ in Dr,_, Condit ” stated that he could only reply to that in so far as the question related to missionary work there. “It has already affected the work, he said. ‘‘We have been advised to send no more missionaries there until the matter is entirely settled and we are acting upon the advice. The missionaries, and in fact all American residents outside of the larger — 4 would have no protection Whatever rom the Sy ap that they would certainly a serious question now whether all the 44 in che interior should not be recalled. Some are even on their way back. We have also sent word tostop all operations upon the chapel which is now be- iag dullt by the Presbyterian Mission in Can- ton. I would not be surprised to see the Ambassador of the Chinese Government to the United States recalled at any time now In fact, l expect it.’ é A CHYNAMAN’S VIEW, Rev. N.J. Poon Chew, who is elne head of the Presbyterian Missions, and was formerly a resident of Canton, China, said in an interview that the Chinese people are not unfriendly towards the people of the United States. „Our Prime Minister is friendly disposed, and as the Geary law has been declared con- stitutionall think if the Chinese are given another opportunity to register they will do so. It was a great disappointment to us to learn that the Supreme Court has so decided the case. We have relied a great deal upon what our attorneys, especially Mr. Qhoate, has told us. I fear that there will de blood- shed when the news is received in portions of China even before the Government has time to act. I know just about how the feel- ing will be there, and I am afrald our mis- sionaries are to be killed and our buildings „What m the Government do?“ hat is hard tos 8 I shall expect the immediate recall of Consuls an other diplomatic representatives of the Chinese ment and the severing of all relations with the United States, diplomatic and com- mercial.

C., May 16.—What China in do in the way of retaliation for the course purgued by this country toward the Chinese in the United States is a matter of much speculation here. That she will take some action is regarded as Ccer- tain. Her statesmen are slow to move, and always move with caution, but theré is nothin g in her history to warrant the beliefthat China will quietly permit her people to submit to the oppressive restric- tions of the Geary law, and contained viola- tions of treaty rights, without some emphatic form rotest. Some time prior to the ssage the Geary law the Chines: Min- ter at Washington, Tsui Kwo Yin, snt to the State Department a lengthy statement, embracing the views of the Chinese Govern- ment on the restriction policy adopted by the United states. In part the Minister said: When it is borne in mind that a year and a half has of = ed since your her ge and President united in a measure whieh the Supreme Court Goulet) compelled the aut norities to disregard and tram Upon solemn tréaty stipulations, and during wh 8 time not o the measure itself has been most rig- idly enf butto its severities have been added by execative action new restrictions upon Chinese subjectsin the United States, it certainly will not surprise you if I communicate to you the earnest and anxious desire of the Imperial Government that I should obtain from you some expression of the views and intentions of your Government on tnis import- ant subjec The tens ia vat sof Chinese subjects who temporarily left the ores of the United States, armed with the signed and sealed assurance of this Government of their right to return, and relying upon its good faith, in almost every case, left be- hind them in this country, property, business fami- lies, relatives, obligations or contracts, which have been imperiled. broken up, orin some shape injuri- eusly affected by their unexpected and un warranted seciusion. The vast number of Chinese laborers who were in the United States at the time of the passage of the act of 1888 had come here under the guaranty of solemn treaty stipulations which allowed 82 and come of their own free — and accord,’’ ant n the solemn assurance they would de main- tained ia this 3 against her 4 * under this = oe land, drawn hithe ing up ‘of long established business relations here anda —— banishment frem their native land by acontinuous residenee in this country.

Let us now turn for a few moments tothe position ofthe American Govornment i nrespect to the 1 of antsand commerce in China and treatment they geceive from the authorities charm, It is patural that the American ernment sh take a deep interest in this trade because of its & tentand importance.

Let in the past two years or 212 am not aware of any 1 domplaint of in- justi e or bardship suffered @ single American merchant in (hina, or any allegation of different treatment extend to them than t all 2 3 merchants. The only question of which bas arisen between thetwo Governments bas. been onthe importation and regulation of trade in Kkeresene. Owing to its explosive — many lives have been lost and much rtyadestroyed in China, and certain of the —— cial authorities have urge upon the Imperial Goverament the restriction of its importation by government control of its sale, and by internal taxation; and, in the furtherance of this view, one of the viceroys, in memorializing the throne, referred to sition assumed by the United States in 22 exclusion of Chinese immigra- tien and said: If they can prohibit our going there because Chinese labor is injurious to their interests, we have an equal right to prohibit the importation of kerosene when it is injurious to us. Although by express trea — . — the Chinese are in the United States to be allowed to go and come of their ownfree will and accord,’’ and are guaranteed the treatment ‘accorded t the 2 or subjects of the most favored nation, for the eight years no sach treatment has been extend them. While the merchants of all other nations of the earth are permitted free and unobstructed en- trance into and departure fromthe ports of the United States, the Chinese merchant has, by the legislatien of your Congress; had thrown around him the most obstructive, em arrassing and humiliating restrictions. Heis treated by the customs author- ities with much the same surveillance as is ex- tended to vagrants or criminals, and before he is permitted to land he is required to produce a certifi- cate, the strict conditiens of which make it dificuls and expensive to comply with, and humiliating and objectionabie to the man of henor and et es necessary to set forth the amount and de- tails of the business in which he is and has been en- gaged with a statement ef his family history and oc- cupation, and all those matters are subject to the ex- amination and approval of the American Consul at the Chinese foreign port when he sails. Such, Mr. Seeretary, are some of the contrasts in the observance and enforcement of treaty rights be- tween the two nations. — ou wonder that the Imperiai Government is ng restive and im tient undersuch dissim arity of treatment and is wise 3 me to obtaln from yoa some satisfactory ex- anation of the conduct ot the American authori- ties in the pests — oss ten agsurance of the course to in the 2 of the public law, rec ed, believe, by all international writers, that 7 Treaty between twe 4 ndent nations isa — — and that the nation ich falls to execute or vi@ates it is responsible to the other by all —— suffered — its subjects thereby, and that it cannot escape re pegs A because of the action or fully * of action any internal 8 or authority ini m of government. t lueed not quote any fo ules pub- licists on this subject, because your owa coun- try fernishes abundant authority to sustain this position, The great American law writer Wheaton, whose wisdom and justice are rec ey throughout all countries, says: cen King (er the President) Cannot compe! the Chambers (or Con- gress), neither can he compel the courts, but the * tion is not the less responsibie for the breech of faith thus arising out of the descendant action of the international machinery of ite Constitution.’’ (Law- renee’s Wheaton, p. 469.)

According to this report the number of Americans in China atthattime was 1;022, while the number stated in the Chinese off: cial returns, above given, for 1890 was 1,153, showingan increase in three years of 133. 1 0 8 oe a in ry Ollowing cities or trea rts moy Canton, 75; Cheefoo, 87; vohinkinng, 7 14 chow, 51; Hankow, 49; 1. 5 333 Ningpo, 186; Shanghal, 400; Tientsin, The classification of American residents in 1887, according to eccupation, fs given as fol- lows: Migsionaries, 506; seafaring, 78; diplo- matic and consular, 28; mercantile, 23; in the Chinese service, 28; miners, 7; mining engineers, 6; machini ts, 33 protessors, 2; chemists, 1; ‘the remainder being unciassi. fied.

Atall times, she claims, he abused her, and by threats of personal violence made life a burden to her. She was advised to leave him and to sue for divorce.

REAL ESTATE W EWS. The real estate. market continues to show signs of a steady improvement. This morn- ing another large tract of suburbDag property was sold for $100,000 by the firm of A. E. Weiss & co. The deal is one of more than ordinary interest, as it is in a new section and is the forerunner of other deals in that locality which are to grow out of the new elec- tric railroad in the South End. The prop- erty comprised in the deal is some eighty acres situated at the southwest corner of Carondelet Park on Loughborough avenne. The purchasers of the tract are the Caron- 8 Park Investment and Improvement „ a syndicate of which Mr, Gedrge C. Fox is. President, Albert Wenslick, Secretary, and James H. Roach, Treasurer. Mr. Roach is Secretary to Mr. John Sculiin of the Union Depot Line, and itis said acted for himina number of successful real estate enterprises which grew out of tie ropose ex- tension of the Scullin lines down Virginia avenue through Carondelet, he property secured by the syndicate will subdivide into 20,000 front feet. It is south of the Gould tract recently purchased by a syndicate, and, wuniike it, has no ponds or Sinkholes on it. The syndicate who pur- chased the Gould property paid $150,000 for it, and the Goulds required that the purchase money should be all cash. The history of Mr. Gould’s purchase of this property {lilustrates remarkably well how everything Jay Gould touched turned to money for him, When he was bullding the Oak Hill road, in orderthat he might get his through trains over the Iron Mountain Railroad into Union Depot without climbing the Popiar street grade any unnecessary switching, be con- ceived the idea of building a model railroad city like Pullman. and it was for this purpose he purchased the ground.. He bought the ground for from about $200 to $500 an acre. After abandon- ing his plan of building a sec- ond Fullman he was expected to sacrifice the tract for what he could get for it, but that was not his plan. The price he ob- tained ior the ground was about double what he paid for it. The history of the street rail- road movements that have brought the tract south of Carondelet Park sold this morning into the market is complicated in the ex- treme. Thereare three distinct movements either one of which if carried out would give the pervs south and west of “ud park rapl transit facilities. first in the field was the electric line, a n for years had the whole ‘South End tributary to it and has made considerable money. The proposed extension of the California a venue branch of the Union Depot Une south in Carondelet parallel with the Sixth street line will divide the territory with that line and in order to secure a new territory as a feeder and at the same time to shut out tue Sscullin line from the district the Sixth street line will, it is said, build an extension out Loughborough avenue to the cemeteries on the Gravois Loughborough avenue gates to Carondelet Park. The Union Depot Line, it appears, has a plan of the same kind. The third plan is thatof the Broadway cable, which proposes to build an electrié extension out Cherokee street to the Gravol d, aad thence south to the cemeteries, near Loughborough avenue. The Grand avenue line talked of will not come south of Meramec street on Grand and will if possible get into Carondelet over the lines or the Scullin road oa Virginia avenue, AGENTS’ REPORTS. J. T.

CATCHER VAUGHN. LOST HIS TEMPER AND ACTED THE ROWDY. Umpire MeQuaid Gives a Glaring Sample ot His Lack of Backbone—An Occur- rence That Calls for Strict Disciplin- ing—Track and Stable Gossip--General Sporting News. To see a ball player led off the diamond be- tween two police officers and escorted off the grounds is not a common event, but it oc- | curred yesterday at Sportsman’s Park, much to the * prise and disgust of the 2,500 spec - tators. Vaughn, the Cincinnati eatcher, was the player who brought disgrace on the na- tional game and deserved humiliation on himself for his rowdayism. It happened to be ladies’ day, a fact which made the occur - rence all the more unfortunate. When the Browns came tothe bat in the fifth inning the score stood 6 to 1 against them. Glass- cock and Werden were given bases on balls, Quinn made a single and a run was scored, Brodie hit safe past first and Werden tallied, Griffin made a single into center and Quinn scored, Brodie tried to make home on the hit, Dut Canavan fielded the ball in sharply. Vaughn biocked the way to the plate and pushed the ball out to touch Brodie, but that player dashed headlong for the plate and the Dall was knocked out of Vaughn’s hand. As Brodie walked unconcernedly to the players’ bench, Vaughn turned like a maddened beast and picking up a bat threw it at Brodie’s head. Quick as a flash the Browns made a rush for Vaughn, who was running of towards the Oincinnatis“ dat- stand after more missiles. Werden, who was lead ing the pursuing host, hurled a bat at the fieeing catcher, which struck him in the small ot the back. The blow took all the ginger out of Vaughn, who gave up all idea of scrapping and began looking for some way to escape from the grounds. He was taken in charge by a private watchman while Capt, Quinn motioned his men back and prevented further trouble. The other Cincinnati players behaved very commendably during the excifement, and Capt. Quinn showed admirable cooiness. Umpire M id lost his head completely. The rules do not require him to use physical force to 29222 order, and he should either have called time or kept his eye on the run- As it was some one threw made the circuit ot the bases. Umpire Me- Quaid fined Vaughn $25. That is the net re- sult of the hand he took in quelling and pun- ishing those who took part inthe disturb- ance. President Vonder Ahe ordered the police to eject Vaughn from the grounds, and the catcher was led off the field amid jeers and ‘hisses from the crowd.mU pire McQualida’s actions deserve the severest censure. The fine he imposed on Vaughnj{was ridiculously small, in addition he should have ordered him out of the game. Besides he saw that some one had struck the Cincinnati catcher with a bat and he should have endeavored to find out the offender and deal out to him the same punishment accorded Vaughn. The spectators in the grand stand were all of the opinion that Werden had done the bat throwing for St. Louis, but the Cincinnati players said this morning that it was Peitz. They also claimed that Brodie had struck Vaughn at the plate and cut his ear. Altogether it was the most dis- graceful affair that has ever occurred on the home grounds and it is to be hoped that its like will never be seen again. A great many of the spectatorsinthe grand standare men who wouldnot attend a rize fight or nen a race track and hey wouldigquickly give upa ball same if such scenes as those of yesterday were allowed to go unpunished. Mr. Von der Ahe said last evening that he intended getting out a warrant for Vaughn. It is to be 12 that he will. as it may serve to keep that player from ever agam making his appear- ance at Sportman’s Park. In the meanwhile to be consistent Mr. Von der Ahe should discipline his oon bat slinger. As for Mr. McQuaid the public will see thet he gets his deserts. BALDWIN’S SUIT AGAINST VON DER ARE, Mark Baldwin has not yet signed with any club, and as far as is known no negotiations bave commenced between himself and any club. He is now in Philadelphia endeavor- ing to force his suit against Von der Ahe toa trial. Regarding the matter, he says: 1 am sick andtired ofthis delay and all the fllmsy excuses for postponements. The truth is, Von der Ahe is afraid to go to a trial of the case, and that isthe great reason for the post ponements. If the lawyer 1 nave engaged will not go and have the case heard, whether von der Ahe is there or not, I will at once engage another lawyer, I really mean whatIsay. Ihave had legal advice on the matter, and I am fully convinced that there is something funny going on. WINNERS AND LOGERS. At Brooklyn—Brooktyn 4, Raltimere 3. At Boston—Boston 8, New York 6.

The third and last championship game be- tweenthe St. Louis Browns and Comiskey’s Cincinnatis will take place to-morrow at the new Sportsman’s Park. The interest in this series is exceptionally strong, and with leasant weather there will, no doubt, bea ig turnout. Hawley and Buckley will prob- ably be the Browns’ battery to-day, and Mul - lane or Chamberlain and Murphy will be the Cincinnatis’ battery. Play will be called at 4p. m. BASE BALL GOSSIP. Cineinmatis’ farewell to-morrow. If Breitenstein pitches to-day, Hawley will pitch to- morrow, and vice versa. Crowell, formerly a National League piteher, is now with the Meridian (Miss.) team. Arthur Clarkson returned this morning from Bos- ton, where he went to attend his sister’s funeral. Baltimore hes released Bill Drown. His release has been expected ever since Milligan began to play first base. President Byrne states that the League agreed that no hit outside the diamond be deemeda * *sac- rifice hit.“ The Pittsburgs, who are second in the champion- ship race, will be the Browns’ opponents Thursday, Friday end Saturday. The Browns leave next Saturday might for Cincin- nati, where they play next Sunday. They then go Kast via Pittsburg aad Cleveland. Stovey is said to be dissatisied with his lot at Baltimore and wants to go elsewhere. Baltimore does not intend to allow him to get away. Joe Sullivan, Wasbington’s new shortstop, is maaing eonsiderable of a stir fora young blood. He is more than holding his own with the veter ans. It is not a fact that Ariie Latham will go up with Mme. Crawford’s balloon. He simply says he will — 2 seeing that the balloon gets a good senac-ort. Mr. Von der Ahe is thinking of procurin g the Italian cavalry asa body guard for the Browns on their next trip to Cincinnat!. When Latham complained of the Browns“ numerous coachers yesterday, McQuaid told him that the Browns had as much right to complain of his mouth. AMATEUR GOSSIP.

SHOE CO, THE , The success of Fred Taral, McCafferty & Wisharda’s cast-off, at the course across the river, is an illustration of just what kind of going is to be had at that track. This horse is troubled with bad legs and notwithstand - ing his speed and gameness was of little value while being raced on the big tracks. In his preliminary work while a member of the McCafferty string this spring he still showed signs of weak legs and his owners concluded to dispose of him the first oppor- tunity.

Oharley Mulhdliand returned from Louis- ville this morning, where he went to:onfer with L. A. Schoenfield, regarding un offer the latter made himtotrain his string this season. Mulholland says he looked over Schoenfield’s string, Which includes fifteen 2- year-olds and two 4-year-olds, all of which are located at Churchill Downs Course, and promised to decide definitely some time within the next few days whether he would accept the oeosition. Most of the Schoenfield youngsters are by Springfield. There are also a few by Hampton, the derby winner, now one of E nda’s most success- ful sires, and twoorthrée are second Her- mits. Hermit, their grandsire, was one of the greatest race horses England has ever had. According to Mulholland six of the youngsters were bred at Queen Victoria’s private stock farm. Charley. however, from the way he talked, is not over’ anxious to take charge ot such a big lot of youngsters. ' While at Louisville Charley Mulholland looked over the horses now stabled at Churchill Downs. ‘‘Theére are about 500 head all told down there juSt at present, said Charley this morning, ‘‘but out of that number, I should say there are not ten really good ones. ‘Lucky’ Baldwin’s Lady Bess and Murphy & Holloway’s Faraday are the best looking ones I saw while there. Lad Bess is an American derby candidate an defeated Bob Rose’s good colt Clifford re- cently. Faraday is being prepared, I was informed, for the rich Club Members’ handi- cap, which was won by his stable companion Wadsworth last year at the Fair Grounds.’’ Gov.

The son of Eulus is being prepared for the Memorial Day handicap. Aloha, with young Rieffe up, was out galloping this morning. Shortly after he was brought out he became frisky and ran away twice.He made a complete circuit ofthe track before his rider could pullhimup. He still looks as high in flesh as ever. THE BROOKLYN HANDICAP. Diablo, the aged son Eolus and Grace Darling, won the Brook! andicap yester- day, Lamplighter, the favorite, was second and Leonawell third. The time was 2:09, made fractionally as follows: Quarter, 25; half, 51; three-quarters, 1:16; mile, 1:42½. Diablo is an aged horse who got dinky- legged after his third year and has latterly been regarded as a high class selling-plater. This spring at Elizabeth he showed he was stil a runner by racing the legs off Blitzen when the track was knee-deep in mud. There were no cheers for the victor. The public had its money on Lamplighter and Judge Morrow. The finish of the race wasthrilling. Entering the stretch Leonawell, Diablo, Lamplighter, Judge Morrow and lume could have been carried by a blaunket. They ran bunched to 100 yards fromthe wire, where Diablo pulled out and won by a length and a half, Lamryleghter wot the place by a neck from Leonawell, who ed Iilume by a nose. The odds ~gainst the winner opened at Gand closed «. 80 to 1. Lamplighter’s defeat is attributed to the poor jockeyship of Willie Simms.

When Max Luttbeg emitted hisPhilipic onst. Louis wrest- lers a mighty howl went up from the local knights of the carpetand chief among those who protested was George Baptiste. Luttbeg said he would wrestle any or all of the tribe, but that the match would have to take place at the. Pastime Club, to whom he was under contract. The club would guarantee a urse of $300, asking the contestants 2 post a 850 forfeit to bind their appearance. These were fair terms. The Pastimes’ purse was liberal and a guar- antee that © match will be fair and above board. Now ‘Baptiste comes and says he will wrestle Luttbeg for the Pastimes’ purse in private only four men on a side the referee. Mr. Baptiste calls a plain business statement. It is. It is un- mistakable evidence that Mr. Baptiste is not over anxious to meet the little Russian. Mr. Baptiste says he is willing to wrestle him in a down-town theater, but he knows that Luttbeg canot wrestle outside of the club- house, If Mr. Baptiste thinks he can throw Mr. Luttbeg let him go up to the club- house and make $300 by doing it. or else Cease ad- vancing propositions. which it is impossible for his opponent to accept. YACHTING. BRISTOL, R. I., May 16.—The cup defender, Colonia, was launched successfully at 7 o’cicck last night. The event was witnessed by Royal Phelps Carroll and wife and many other prominent yachting people. There was no christening. N The launching of this boat is important from the fact that she is the first of the cup defenders to go overboard. She greatly resembles the lines of the Navahoe. Sheis a keel boat, the fifty tons of lead being bolted on the Keel. A Novelty at New Sportsman’s Park.
