THE COST OF AN ANTI CHINESE RIoT.-The
city is Being made 10 pay roundly for the prop
erty destroyed in the July riots OF last year.
Ihere is one thing connected with these judy
mentS Which may cause some comment. The
names OF several Ca'tcaSlanS appear as having
sustained heavy losses in linen by the burning
of Chinese laundrIes In one case Mr.. Meyers
gets Judgment of $50 for such loss, and in an
other case Mr.. Fischer Is awarded Sl6l.15. The
question naturally occurs IL these men had an
interest in the laundries burned, which were
oStensibly run by Cinnamon, or IL they were
patrons. L the latter, they must have been
wholesale customers. There may be some Gu
fiosty manifested as to whether laundry pro-
prietOrs who receive compensation for linen de-
stroyed lay the money over to their patrons,
who really sustained the loss, or appropriate il
70 tneir personal compensation for freight and
loss OF business. The fact becomes apparent
that rlstS are IA expensive amusement. Indi-
