Special to the SENTINEL

hoodlums who broke into a Chinese laun-
dry on the Sth and stole $50 and NAL
treated the Cinnamon, said 1T has been
the custom in other cities to look on
Chinese laundrymen with disfavor. Roughs
like you, who spend most of their time in
idleness and debauchery, while Chinese
are acquiring an honest livelihood, fancy
they have full license to rob, beat and even
kill them. However successful this mob
rule has been in other cities, I desire to
announce officially that it's course here, so
far as this Court has the power to prevent
it, shall be short-hved and unpleasant.
The severe punishment l am about to i'm
pose upon you may be expected by all
those who disturb the peace and dignity of
the community by outrageous attacks upon
those who, to all appearances, are molten
sive. The sentence of the Court is that
you be confined in the State Prison for
two years and six months"

RObertsOn's Confirmation in the
New York Legislature.
ALBANY, May ls,-At lao o'clock, while
the Senate was in Committee of the Whole,
Senator Lord in the chair, a telegraph mes
ssnger entered and handed Senator Rob-
ertson a telegram. A buzz of excitement
ran around the circle and business was sus-
pended. Senator Robertson handed the tel.
egram to Senator Woodin, who quickly
read its contents, and coming toward the
desk said, Come down from there"
Lord-"What are we in? I move the
committee rise"
Senator Lord then put the motion, which
was declared carried. In the meanwhile
Robertson had returned to his seat In the
circle and appeared deeply affected.
Senator Woodin assumed the duties of
President and said: "On motion of Mr..
Sessions, the Senate stands in recess for five
minutes. I will read the dispatch: TO
Hon. VIM. H. Robertson-Your con6rma-
tion has just been made unanimous. Ac-
cept congratulations"
The widest excitement, cheering and
clapping of hands followed. Mr.. Sessions
jumped in a chair and gave three cheers for
Robertson, while Mr.. Hustled, who had
come in from the Assembly, also leaped
upon a chair and aided in cheering. Mr..
LOOMS then called for three cheers for
President Garfield, which were given with
a will. General handshaking followed.
amidst which the Senate adjourned.
Another Surprise.
CHICAGO, May ia Washington dis.
patch this Thursday morning says: Mr..
Conkling has just one more surprise in store
for the great American public. A gentle
man who had a long talk with him says
that Conkling's resignation has been made
in good faith, and be does not intend to
permit his name to go before the New ork
Legislature for reelection. He says also
that the original suggestion of resignation
came from Platt and not from Conkling.
Platt is so disguised that he will not again
be a candidate. If the two New York
Senators are in earnest in their resolution
to retire to private life this will have a de-
cided effect in changing the tide Of feeling
which set in so swiftly against them.
Proceedings of n National Bap-
tist Anniversary.
INDIANAPOLIS, May 19.-The National
Baptist anniversary was held to-day. 1t
was reported that many new fields are
opening up, including Dakota, Wyoming,
Idaho, Washington, Oregon, New Mexico,
Texas and the Indian Territory. Ad-
dresses were subsequently delivered on
the work in the extreme west and on the
Pacific Coast by Rev. W. T. Crawford Of
Oregon, and the Rev. DR.. Osborn of North
Adams, Mass, who has recently made d
missionary trip over the Pacific States and
Territories. The last named is specially
arguing aggressive work to check the
spread of Mormonism.
Political SpeculatiOns.
ALBANY, May 19.--The Administration
Republicans are ready for an election, but
will not enter the caucus until they are
able to defeat Conkling or Plat, unless
some of the Democrats go with them and
their side; but if the Democrats fuse with
the Conklingites they believe that they can
beat both at the polls next Fall. The
Conklingitss favor IN early election, and
say that Conkling will not be a candidate.
The Democrats oppose the election, claim
ing that the question should go to the
people. Probably there will be an cleo
ton without a caucus.

theptic confirmation is unobtainable.
