sharp question Of the attorney. ''No, sir, y
was the quick reply, ''but I've many time

Chinese Naturalization.

NEW York, March 11.-To-day's tribune
says: The Senate has passed the Chinese
immigration bill, and has tackled on an
amendment or two, which, perhaps, might
better have been left off. A comment on
the provision which prohibits State courts
from comforting citizenship on Chinese is
suggested by the fact that Hop Sing, of this
city, yesterday made formal declaration be-
fore proper officer of his intention to be-
come a citizen. II Is to be regretted that
any such bill as this is needed, but some.
times expediency is craftsmanship of the
highest order.
The Times says: United States Commits
sioner Shields yesterday granted the natur-
allzaton papers of Hop Sing, native of
China, who applied for what are known as
first papers," Under the laws Of the United
States, Cinnamon cannot be naturalized.
The Act of 1904 was amended In 1870 so
that the Revised Statutes reads thus: "The
provisions of this title shall apply to aliens
Of African nativity and to persons of Afri-
can descent" In 1875, when amendments
to the naturalization laws were under con-
sideratlon, attention being called to the fact
that the statute as 1t stood would authorize
the naturalization Of Asatics, the section
was amended so as to read: "The provisions
of this section shall apply to aliens being
free white persons, and to aliens of Afrcai |
nativity aud to persons Of African descent"
There are at least two decisions under this
statute adverse to the applications of natives
of China for naturalization papers. One
was given by United States Circuit Judge
Sawyer, Of California, in 1878, and one by
Judge Choate, in the United States Circuit |
Court of New York, in 1870. As a naive |

country. He was last summer at Coney ISL
and. He had cheerful, contented DISPOSE

whom he was best known. His seeming
misfortune was in reality his fortune, his 720
pounds weight bringing him $50 per week.
When attacked by the smallpox he was with
difficulty removed to the hospital by seven
men, aud on Friday the bed be was placed on

The Two Friends.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE following
Is related by prominent ex-Union General
as part Of the unwritten history in connec-
ton with the revival of the Rosecrans- Gar
Held letter. 1t brings to the surface hith-
erto forgotten fact, which will tend to
strengthen the well-known friendship and
affection which existed between the two.
IL Will be remembered that Garfield was
delegate from Ohio In 1854 to the Baltimore
convention, and nominated Lincoln for his
second term. After Lincoln had been nom-
mated, Garfield telegraphed Rosecrans, who
was then at st. Louis, as follows: "Vice-
Presidency going begging. win you ac-
cept?" Rosecrans, after consultation with
well-known General--now In Washington
consented, and sent an answer TO Garfield
saying: "Yes." It Is said to have been
suppressed by Stanton, in the War Depart
ment, through whose hands all kilograms at
that time went. In consequence Andrew
johnson received the nomination which
Rosecrans would have unquestionably Sc
cured.

EDMuNDS, ANTI-POLYGAMY BILL.
II Passes the House by . Decided Msjorit

WASHINGTON, March 1a.-The House
passed the anti-polygamy bill by q vote Of
100 against AZ, without amendment. The
House then ut 1925, on motion Of Page, adj
journed until $3.50 this afternoon, when the
Tuesday legislative session will begin, and
the Chinese bill will come up shortly AFTER
ward.
HOUSE, Before the final passage OF the an
ti-polygamy bill inthe House to-day Cassidy,
OF Nevada, said he subscribed to every word
uttered regarding the fundamental principle
Of local government,b but argned that this was
an exceptional case. All were agreed that
polygamy should be extirpated, but II these
two sections we're stricken out the bin would
be worthless. The youth Of the Territory
must be taught to obey the laws Of the land
Is well as other people. Polygamy must be
made disreputable among the people Of
Utah, and this could not be done so long as
polygamisfs occupied all the elective Offices
In the Territory. The bill was not perfect,
but he believed that II was the best this Con-
gress would pass. There was good deal Of
sentImenialIty brought into this question,
and Ii was said that man had the right to
wonhip God . be saw 1T, but be denied that
the Mormon religion = promulgated BY the
iecherous element ID Utah was religion

NEW YORK, March IL The finding of
the court-martial of Sergeant Mason, who
shot at Guiteau last September, was made
public yesterday by an order issued by Gen.
Hancock from Headquarters Department of
the East, at Governors Island. The court
martial finds him guilty, and pronounces
sentence as follows: ITO be dishonorably
discharged from the service of the United
States, with loss of all pay now due, or to
become due to him, and then to be confined
at hard labor in such penitentiary as the
proper authority may direct for eight years"
The order issued yesterday states that the
findings have been approved and that SEN
tence will be duly executed. The peniten-
tiary at Albany is designated as the place of
MasoR's confinement. He Is now at Wash
ington, and will be held there until further
orders. The selection of the Albany peni-
Tertiary is subject to the approval of the
Secretary of War.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE sentence
Of the court-martial on Sergeant Mason, for
shooting at Guiteau, was communicated to
Mason this afternoon. He received it with
apparent indifference. Already petitions
have been prepared asking pardon from the
President. Numerous signatures were ap.
pended to one this evening. One ground
for asking it is there is reason to believe
Mason is insane.
CINCINNATI, March 11.-A petition for
presentation to President Arthur, for the
pardon Of Sergeant Mason, has been circu-
lated to-day, and is receiving large number
of signatures of prominent business men.
The grounds proposed for the exercise of ex-
ecutive clemency are the excitement under
which the shooting was done.
