The Treasury Department and the Law Con-
cerDing Chinese Laborers.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.-Mr. James, chief of
the customs division of the Treasury Depart
ment, was asked this morning whether re-
quest had been made by the Chinese consul %
New York for permission to land certain Chi
nese sailors recently brought to that port. He
said the matter had not been brought to the no.
tice of the department officially, but he had
received telegram from New York. this morn
ing, asking whether decision had been reached
in the case of the sailors in question. He had re-
Piled he said, that the case had been decided by
Judge Potter in New FORK. last August, the lat
ter holding, in the case of Fork, Chinese sailor
on the British ship PembrOkeshire, that Chi
nese sailors were placed by law on the same
footing as other Chinese laborers and could not
be landed. Mr.. James said similar decision
had been reached at San Francisco, last year.
He said Also that the Treasury Departm ent
could not construe the law, that being matter
for the courts. He Thought Judge POtter's de-
cisiOn was all that was necessary i'll this partic-
ular case.

Postomce Items.

WASHINGTON, April Io-It is said at the
Postofice department that the report referred
to in recent dispatch from the City of Mexico
in regard to postal arrangements between that
country and the United States, urged the ne.
cessity of daily instead of tri-weekly mail ser
vice in Mexico. At present ME United States
mails for Mexico reach the frontier daily and
are delayed there on account of slow mail SER
vice of that government. A change is pro-
posed in which the Mexican authorities APP
pear to have acquiesced, which will obviate
the delay, and mails will be forwarded as lar
as possible on the day they reach the Mexican
border.
Postmaster General Gresham to-day APP
proved the specifications for the new postal
notes, and the advertisements will be issued
at once inviting proposals for printing notes.

From the Wall Street News
The other night merchant in village in
Ohio was discovered in his store at an I'M
usually late hour, and in reply to inquiries he
said
" My confidential clerk is missing
" And what Of it?"
"Why, I'm looking over the books, but
they seem to be all square,"
" Have you counted your cash?"
Yes, and it is correct to a dollar"
Look over your bank book ?"

puzzle, you see. He's skipped, and | can't
make out what for.
" Been home since noon ?"
"No"
6 Perhaps he has eloped with your wife"
Lands alive but it may be so II it is,
then the puzzle will be solved"
He hurried home, and it was so, and he felt
great anxiety off his mind.

The Ph@nix Park Murderers.

DUBLIN, April 10 Timothy Kelly, charged
with participating in the murder of Caven-
disc and Burke. was placed on trial this morn
ing. Sullivan and McInneuy were appointed
to conduct the defense, Judge o. Brien having
complied with the request of Dr. Webb and
Adams to be relieved from further duty de-
Tending the accused men. The Jury was then
sworn in, one of whom is Parnell It is con-
sequently expected that the jury will fail to
agree.
Evidence Of witnesses for the crown was
mostly repetition of that given in the cases
Of Joe Brady and Daniel Curley James
Carey swore that the conspiritors had re-
solved TO murder Colonel Hitler and Burke
in consequence of the article that appeared
in the Freeman's journal, speaking OF the de-
STABILITY cfa thorough change of officials at
the Dublin castle, which had become an au-
geau stable. This same statement was made
by Carey at the preliminary examination of
prisoners, and was then declared by the Free
mans journal to be due to the fact that E.
Dryer Gray, owner of that paper, when
Chairman of the NJ unicipal committee, had
charged Carey, who was Town Counsellor,
with conspiracy.

A Break at Chicago.

CHICAGO, Aug. 18-Despite the attitude
taken by the local assembly of telegraphers
last night, this morning witnessed what ap-
peared to be decided break in the ranks
Up to noon to exceed fifty had made per-
sonal application to Superintendent Tubbs
for reinstatement, and thirty-nine had been
given places. Superintendent Clowry has
reports from Indianapolis and Cincinnati to
the effect that all opposition from the work
men is closing there and that full forces
will be on duty tonight
The striking telegraph operators kept ap-
plying for work at the office of the Western
Union in small squads up to o'clock, when
a stampede occurred, and from that on till a
late hour this afternoon the hallway leading
to the office of Mr.. Tubbs was crowded. A
number of those applying were refused
places, for reasons best known to the Off
cials. Practically the entire working force
of the Baltimore & Ohio was taken back in
tact. About 100 operators met this after
noon in Ulrich's Hall at 2 o'clock, when the
leaders acknowledged that the cause was
lost, and advised the men to seek work. The
Chicago office is now fully manned.

Testimony Before the Senate Subcommittee
in New York

in New York.
New York, Aug. 1S.-Tbe United States
Senate subcommittee on labor and educa-
ton resumed their session to-day. Samuel
Gompers, president of the Amalgamated
Trades and Labor Unions, of this city, was
recalled.
He claimed that the increased production
by England, consequent upon the improve
ment i'll machinery, was the direct result of
reduction in the hours of labor, and in this
country, where the hours of labor were
restricted, as in the case of Massachusetts,
where there was a ten-hour law governing
all textile industries, the statistics showed
the productivity was much greater than in
other States, where employers could work
their men for any time. He said that the
factories of Massachusetts, produced more
yarn to the spindle and more cloth to the
loom than in Rhode Island or Connecticut.
The witness said that although many of
the strikes which had taken place during
recent years had failed, sometimes from
insufficient organization and sometimes from
bad management, he thought they should
not be condemned as injurious to the work
ingmen. As general rule they had always
redounded to the benefit of the laboring
classes. The statistics of strikes in this
country showed that in majority of cases
the strikes had been successful. During the
last two years there have been 100 strikes,
and all were won or compromised except
twenty, which were lost or unaccounted for
In the Cigar-makers' Union it was customary
to make an equalization of the funds of each
society every six months. The recent tele-
graphers strike had failed, as the first at
tempt of all trade organizations had done,
but the experience gained would be useful
to them in future movement. Mr.. Gompers
denied that the socialistic element had
gained control Of all labor organizations in
this country. 1t might be the case with a
few of the smaller ones, but the object of the
great unions was only to secure benefits for
their members by mutual combinations and
legitimate means. To remedy existing
evils he recommended an enforcement of the
national eight-hour law and the act to le-
galize the incorporation of trades unions
throughout the country.

Secretary Hughes.

PITTsBURG, Aug. 1S.--In an interview with
an Associated Press representative tonight,
Thos H. Hughes, grand secretary of the
Brotherhood of Telegraphers, speaking OF the
collapse of the strike, said the condition CT
the strike in many sections, especially in
Quebec and the South, was one of demorali-
zation. At many points members were in
want of the necessaries of life, rents were
due and evictions threatened. Money was
coming in slowly. Philadelphia and other
Eastern points were short OF funds and it
vas impossible to hold out in New York
longer The charge made by some that
John Campbell sold the organization out is
most unjust and unwarranted. One order
may have been little premature, but those
in position to know fully realize the fact
that hundreds were about to return TO work.
and the last of next week would have termi-
mated the strike in all but half a dozen
places

THE BRITISH COMMONS.
Defiant Spirit Manifested by the Member
from Ireland.


from Ireland.
LONDON, Aug 1S,-During the session of tue
Commons to-day, Gladstone took occasion to
rebuke what he termed the "habitual vio-
lence" of language used by Healy Home
ruler( member for Monaghan county. He
said Healys utterances deserved the severest
reprobation, as they were calculated to stim-
ulate national hatred, which it has been his
(Gladstones) desire to mitigate, and, it, pos
sible, extinguish. He regretted that Healy
had pleaded the wrongs of Ireland as an ex-
cuse for his remarks. While Gladstone was
speaking he was frequently interrupted by
Bigger (Home-rulerl, member for Cayan
county
The chairman finally notified Bigger that
if he did not desist, he would name him to
the House. Healy, in responding to Glad
stone, was very defiant He declared there
was state of war between England and
Ireland which would become physical war
fare if the Irish had the power to engage in
the struggle. Ireland, he said, wanted JUS
tice, and not appeals to fine sentiment
The House of Commons continued in ses-
sion until 2:20 Sunday morning, The supply
bill was finally finished and the Irish tram
ways bill passed to its third reading. The
government assures Parnell and his follow
ers that only $500 will be devoted to emf
grafton purposes. The debate was very Bit
ter throughout In addition to Mr.. Bigger
Mr.. Callan and a new delegate were called to
order by the chairman.
