8 PAGES PAGES VOLUME XXXY. JSTEWAEK, OHIO, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 15 1893 NUMBER 81 THE CHINESE 'QUESTION DISCUSSED CABINET CAUCUS. EST Celestials Not to Be Disturbed Tfae 5sew Gunboat Castino About to Her Speed Trial De-soriptlon of the Sister Ship to the Mauliias-- Her Fretty Kig. WASHINGTON, Sept. Chi- question was one of the principal -topics considered at the cabinet nieet- ing.

It is practically settled that no further steps for the de- por cation of unregis- Chinese will be taken pending the settlement of Chinese 'flegislation said to have jbeen considered at fthe meeting were the of financial legislation and the political troubles in 'JAMES B. M'cEKAKy Brazil. The state department has as yet received no confirmation of the reported battle near Rio de Janeiro, in which many lives were lost. Another Chinese bill is now in course of preparation by Mr. McCreary (Ky), chairman of the foreign affairs committee of the House, which recognizes the nece aity for some prompt action by The government, has suspended the enforcement of the Geary law by declining to make further arrests.

In any city of California 500 Chi- namen could be arrested within an hour for being in this country in violation of the Geary law. But United States officers are instructed not to disturb them for the present. In the Los Angeles case, where private citizens made complaint to United States Judge Ross, that certain Chinamen were in the United States in violation of the Geary law, Judge Ross held that Chinamen could be arrested and deported on the complaint of a private citizen, and that the United States government must deport such Chinamen so found here. In doing this he construed that the law of September 13, 1888. was in force.

Acting under a decision of the solicitor of the treasury, rendered October 16, 1888. the treasury department, in a circular letterof hrei-d'that" "the Chinese act of September 13.1888, never went into operation, and is of no binding force, for the reason that it is dependent on the ratification of a treaty with China which was never ratified." Various interpretations have been put on this act by various United States judges sitting in various sections of the country. If the construction of the treasury i-e then it will follow that citizens cannot force the government to execute a law which it may think it wise for the time to suspend. The gunboat Castine, sister ship to the Machias, will have her speed tidal over the forty-mile course on Long Island sound in a few davs. The exact day of the trial will depend on conditions of wind and tide.

The Machias and Castine are Maine's first contributions to the new navy. The speed achieved by the Machias ea -ned her a premium, and tiere is reason to expect a similar result fr the trial of her sister ship. The naval board of inspection, of which Commodore Walker is president, convened at New London and completed arrangements for the trial. The Castine is built of steel, and has a length on load line of 190 feet, an extreme breadth of 32, a mean draught of 12, a displacement of 1,050 tons, and an aggregate horse power which is expected to reach 1,600. She is propelled by vertical, triple-expansion engines, and has a coal capacity sufficient for steaming 2,452 knots at her maximum, while at 10 knots an hour she could go 4,608 knots.

Her rig is that of a two-masted schooner, spreading about 6,500 square feet of canvas. Her battery is quite adequate, as it contains eight four-inch rapid-fire guns. These are now exceedingly effective on account of the great rapidity with which they can be served and the high range and penetration given by improved powders. The secondary battery consists of four six-pounder and two one-pounder and rapid-fire guns and two Gatlings. Pains have been taken to secure comfortable quarters for officers and men, and the complement is 150.

After the Castine has had her trial run, and has been duly accepted, she will be retained, as is customary, in home waters for several months. Then she may be assigned to some foreign station, since her light draught will be useful where costlier cruisers could not go. A Fatal Pair of Blacks. MARFIELD. Sept.

A number of stores recently closed are being kept open. At the board of health meeting at noon two cases of fever were reported. The Cox child reported and Mrs. Turner, in the northern part of the city. Other cases that had been reported on the streets after examination were declared not to be yellow fever.

An important question was presented at the board of health meeting. Who is in charge of matters, the government or the city authorities? One or the other must assume the responsibility or great confusion must exist. Dr. Guiteras said that it looks very much like an epidemic is threatened though the slow appearance of the disease was a hopeful sign. Each death has been complicated with weakness and other illness.

Camp Haines will be inaugurated by next Monday, when Surgeon Maguder will take charge. The people have little hope of egress now until after frost, however, when matters may turn. following bulletin of the -board of health exp ains itself: "To the public. The board of health announces that there are two cases of yellow fever now under treament in the city, and that it does not deem that it has assumed the form of an epidemic. ''S.

C. ''Chairman Pro Tern." While there is cause of apprehension, the facts are decidedly more cheerful than than these rumors. A few days, however, will indicate what it is to be.

Surgeon Magruder says that he has just completed a thorough inspection of St.

Helena island. Four hundred and sixty-three were drowned, but buried by the natives. There was no trace of odor from the cemeteries. All the wells yield brackish water. He has ordered one hundred cleaned and pumped out until the water is pure.

Some sections of the island are flooded, from the closing of the main drains and the water omits odor. Arrangements have been made for starting a force of one hundred and 30 men to begin the work of cleaning the drains. The crops are almost completely destroyed. OHIO DAY AT CHICAGO.

He rejoiced that the recent panic had passed and pointed out how easily our great credit is disturbed by the removal of the least of its supports.

Panics.he believed.could hardly be avoided as they were to come every few years. Honesty, economy and conservatism were bulwarks of strength against the disturbances. The governor commended the patriotic action of the bankers of Xev, York and other cities in straining all their resources in the recent crisis to save the country from a total collapse. Before six months have rolled around we shall begin to wonder why we ot frightened. WASHINGTON, Sept.

is. Senator Vporhees said Thursday that the friends of repeal were not in the least weakening, and the watchword was no surrender. Until the resources of courtesy are exhausted, however, there will be no disposition to ride the enemy down. Senator Hansbrough spoke against silver repeal in the senate. He declared that the world's prices of wheat and cotton in this country had fallen with the price of silver.

'Somebody in Europe had said something would happen if the present law were not repealed, and hence congress had been ordered to repeal it. The president's message showed he was obeying the behest of the money changers. A new declaration of independence is wanted. THE HOUSE. The first skirmish over the federal election repeal bill took place in the House Thursday, and although the casualties were few it was manifested that both sides were in earnest, and that the regular battle will be a severe one.

The Republicans opened their batteries by declining to allow the "casUrf belli" to be even reported to the House. Under the generalship of Mr. Burrows, the Republicans resorted to filibustering tactics and for the day had the best of the skirmish as they prevented the reporting of the measure and the House at 2:45 adjourned without action. But before this was done, the Democrats- adopted a resolution revoking all leaves of absence, except those granted on account of sickness. Over the resolution there was a very brief but very spiey discussion, in the course uf which of Ohio, intimated that if the bill was called up at the present time, the Wilson bill when it returned from the senate, might not receive the Republican assistance it formerly did: and Mr.

McMillan, of vigorouslv declared that the federal election bill would be if it took the whole congress to do so. In short, in the brief debate there were indications that the approaching debate will be a warm partisan dispute. St. Andrew's Urotherhood. DETROIT.
