Editor Wong Chin FOO's OP1niOn-The he
 Immenss War Resources of His C0un-
 try.
 NEW YORK, Sept 4-Wong Chin Foo, ed itor of the Chinese American, said to re porter this evening that should France and China go to war the probabilities, in his opinion the certainty, of success lay with the Chinese. ''The government of my native country" he added, ''eould order into the field at days notice no less than one hun dred and fifty thousand fighting men, and besides it has 8 well filled treasury. No other country than China is at the present time without an enormous national debt With the great amount of wealth which 1t possesses sufficient men could be hired to fight twice the number of men that France could send to that country. With a couple of weeks notice they could show five hundred thousand men ready and willing to fight Besides, the Chinese are good sol diers and inured to the climate, which will in itself be 8 tremendous advantage over the French.'
 stDo you think other European residents besides the French are likely to suffer if g war should break out?" Certainly do. believe that the majority of them will be killed. The average Chinaman cannot dis tinpuish the difference between 8 Frenchman and an Englishman any more than the ordi nary soldier of this country could distinguish between a native of China and native of Japan"
 ssWhat effect will the disruption in Anam have on the autonomy of the empire ?' 'In- asmuch as Anam is district or province from which the Chinese government every alternate year receives taxes and is ruled by king subject to the Emperor, French interference in Anam the empire. The French have never shown anything but contempt for the laws and rulers of China, but you may believe me that before she leaves there she will get the beating she has long deserved at the hands of the country"

ADeadIy Wound With 8 Stove Lid.
 BALTIMORE, Sept. 4.-Iuformation reached here to-day of an affair which occurred yes- terday at Carter's Creek, Lancaster county, Va, and which will probably result in the death of a man named Thomas. Capt. Isaac Bussells, who keeps general store at Carter's Creek asd;a, conducts fish factory for the manufacture of oils and fertilizers, employs number of men, including Thomas. The latter called on Bussells for his wages and Bussells delayed more than Thomas thought proper This led to hot words between them, when Bussells threw stove lid at Thomas, striking him in the forehead. The iron remained imbedded in Thomas skull and when drawn out portion of the brains came out with it. The doctors say he cannot live. When Bussells realized what he had done he decamped and has not been seen or heard of since. The authorities will offer a reward for his apprehension

The Utah COmmission-A Defense of Its Methods by One of the Board.

The Utah COnmissiOn-A Defense of Its Methods by One of the Board.
 WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.-Hon. A. B. Carlton of the Utah commission, under date of Salt
 Lake, August 30, writes to Secretary Teller defending the commission against the criti. cisms contained in recent published state
 ment purporting to have been made by Hon.
 Edwards Pierrepont to President Arthur The commission, Mir. Carlton says, will make full report of their doings in Utah before
 Congress meets, which he thinks will con-
 vince MT. Pierrepont that he has been i'm posed upon. For the present he
 insists and only wishes to say in be half of the commission 'ethat every charge and inuendo that the gentlemen com posing the board have been improperly in-
 fuenced or have failed to discharge their whole duty under the law to the best of their
 ability and judgment are based upon informa-
 tion that is wilfully and wickedly false The board is charged with the duty of excluding all polygamists from voting and from eligi- bility to office. TLis is the full extent of our authority under the law and thus our work has been completely successful. We have excluded some twelve thousand polyga-
 mists from the polls and at the November election of 1882, many munici pal elections since that time and at the general election of August, 1883, embrac-: ing 800 officers who were elected, we have 1 excluded all polygamists from eligibility. In short the commission has strictly and strin- gently executed the law of Congress and has stretched the legal letter to its utmost ten
 sion to make it as effective as possible inso-
 much that the Mormons have sued the
 members of this board in ten cases for what
 they allege to. be an excess of authority against them.''
