lMPOR DUTIES.
An OpiniOn by the Solicitor of
the Treasury.

WASHINGTON, November Judge McCue,
Solicitor of the Treasury, has gwen an
opinion to the Secretary in regard to the
wines and other articles brought from
abroad by the officers OF the United States
steamers Portsmouth and Saratoga. He di,
vides the articles in question into three
classes, as follows:
l. Certain wines purchased abroad by
the caterer of the mess and in use for con-
sumption aboard the vessel by the members
of the mess or their visitors.
9. Certain articles, including wines,
gloves, clothing, etc.. imported for use by
persons other than the officers bringing the
same.
8 other articles, including wines,
gloves. clothing, etc., but for the officers
own use.
In regard to the first class the Solicitor
holds that as the goods were not intended
to lie landed they are not dutiable II re-
tanned on shipboard for use. He says that
an importation is an arrival with the intent
to unload. In regard to second class, viz:
articles brought by officers for the use
of other persons as effects or
otherwise the solicitor says they
are duliable, and that there Is no dis
cretion in customs officers or in the Secre-
tary of the Treasury to abate any portion of
the duties prescribed by law. As to the
third class, viz: articles brought by officers
for their own use, the Solicitor says their
liability to duty depends. upon whether they
are wearing apparel in actual use and per-
sonal effects not merchandise. II they are
he says they are free of duty. The courts
have given liberal construction as regards
wearing apparel and personal effects, and
the Solicitor says that under recent decis-
ions all articles brought for personal use by
officers on shipboard or in their quarters
on shore, would be free OF duty. In con.
clusion the Solicitor says that he does not
think that there is necessarily any penalties
incurred by the naval officers, SO that what
ever is collected from them should be by
way of duties on such OF the goods as col
lectOrs may decide to be dutiable.

THE SUPERVISORS
French Democratic Meeting.

A large meeting of French speaking vot-
ers was held last night in the hall of the
Spanish Democratic Club, on Main street.
Despite the fact of only few hours notice
having been given, the hall was filed when
Mr.. Chas. Castera called the meeting to or
der. Mr.. George lie Mesnager was unani-
mously elected Chairman, and Mr.. Castera
Secretary, of the assemblsge. After few
well chosen words from Mr. Mesnager, stat
ing the object of the meeting, Col. j. j..
Ayers, State Printer, was introduced as the
orator of the evening. The storm of ap-
plause which welcomed the accomplished
speaker indicated thar despite his long alb
sence his friends, the French. still warmly
rendered him. Col. Ayers made strong
and eloquent appeal in French to his hear
ers to support the entire Democratic ticket
he called their attention to the wasteful
extravaganza OF the Republican party;
graphically eontrasted the records Of the
two parties and with most cogent argument
showed why the Democrats depended on all
French born voters TO support their ticket.
Colonel Ayers was repeatedly interrupted
by the hearty applause with which his tell
ing speech was received, and which war
rants to the Democratic party u united and
enthusiastic support from the French speak
ing voters.
following resolution was unanimously
passed:
WHEREAS, The Republican party is only
Republican in name and is championing
the monopolies, fanataism and intolerance,
WHEREAS, The Democratic party has al
ways been and is yet the defender of the
masses, the workingman and individual
liberty,
We, French citizens and tax payers OF Los
Angeles in mass meeting assembled have
unanimously resolved that the public good
and future prosperity OF California demand
that we should and we will all vote the
Democratic ticket.

BtG STRIKE IN CHICAGO.
SIX Thousand men Omit Work

SIX Thousand Nleu Omit work.
CHICAGO, November 1.-Nearly six thou.
sand men in the slaughter houses OF Swift
aud Morris quit work this morning. The
trouble is over the resumption of the ten
hour system, the men refusing to work the
additional two hours without additional
psy. Each OF the two houses employ about
three thousand men. None OF the other
packing houses are affected. An attempt
was made to induce the men in Armours
and other large houses to stop, but they re-
fused to go out.
Further particulars from, the stock yards
concerning the strike are to the effect that
Swift's beef killers sent committee to him
on Saturday and insisted on having an in
crease of fifty cents day should the firm
return tothe ten hours system. In the morn
ing when the beef killers went to work they
noticed that Foreman Wilder, of Swift's.
had discharged James Matthewson, one of
the com nitteemen. They also found that
the wages Of laborers had not been iu-
creased, SO they struck. They insist now on
having Matthewsou reinstated, and also
upon return to the eight hours system; On
hearing that Wits men were out the beef
butchers employed by Morris went out. A
crowd went down to Smith machine shop
and compelled the hands there to strike.
After this they went to Armours for the pur-
pose OF calling his men out, but this move
was antici ted by the foreman, who got a
force of police to guard the principal en-
frances and the crowd was kept away.
Between two and three hundred men in
LIBBY. Mcneil & Libby's canning establish.
rnent also went out. The reason alleged
was that Morris establishment partly sup
plies the canning firm with beef, A meet
ing of the strikers was had late this after
noon. No one except Knights OF Labor
were admitted. Fully one thousand non
union strikers congregated on the outside
spxiously awaiting the action of the
Knights. Several speeches were made and
wild applause greeted every reference
to an eight-hour day. motion to
make no compromise on anything short
OF eight hours was carried by II unanimous
vote. A committee was appointed to take
charge of the strike and given full power
to act. A knight of Labor explained to-
night that the discharged men had been of
fered reinstatement, but they would now
hold out for a return to the eig hour sys-
.em by all the beef houses. He said the
proprietors would be given till iturday to
decide what they would do, and if they
persisted in running ten hours a general
strike would probably be ordered, which
would include Swifts Morris and also Ar
mour's slaughters houses

Vote for Lynch.

EDITOR HERALp;-I think every one in
seeking to impress upon the voters of the
Sixth Congressional District the necessity
of sending Joseph d. Lynch to Congress is
doing the right thing. The gentleman is In
harmony with the dominant sentiment in
the House of Representatives. His Repub-
lican opponent is not. Mr.. Lynch win be
able to secure for the Sixth District beneficial
legislation which Vandever could under no
circumstances succeed in passing The
Democratic candidate if elected, will be
able to call TO his aid the Democratic senti-
ment OF the House and the Democratic
President and mis- advisers. The Repnbli-
matter in plain. business light. vandever
can do nothing for his constituents,
for the majority of the House Is
opposed to him. He will net be
permitted to make capt al to establish per-
manent Republican ascendancy in the
Sixth Congressional District. His measures
will. IN themselves. II for no other. invite
defeat. But the position OF Mr.. Lynch in
Congress would be just the reverse. He
would secure the active sympathy and in
woke the active aid CT the Adminlstration
and the mai )rity in Congress. Anti-Chinese
legislation. appropriations f"r public build
ings, giving work to thousands of working
men, wll be with him matter OF easy ac-
complishment.
Now, these are plain propositions which
address themselves TO the mprehension
and judgement of every voter The public
interest timpcratively demands the election
of the Democratic candidate. Let Mr.
Lynch be elected by an overwhelming ma
jority. Mr.. Lynch IS a gentleman whose In
teerity, energy, fidelity and ability need no
ANeELgiio.

UNITED STATES SUPREME
COURT DECISION.
stockholders liable on Increased
2iaCE.

wssHlNGTos. November IA decision
was rendered in the Supreme Court of the
Cnited States to-day in the series of cases
known as the Pacific National Bank cases,
brought here by appeal from the United
States Circuit Court for the District of Mass
aehusetts. The suits were instituted by the
receiver OF the Paeiic National Bank of
Boston against the stockholders of that
bank to enforce personal liability for an as
sessment OF 100 per cent. upon the shares OF
both the original and increased capital
stock of the bank standing upon its books
in their names, The stockholders main-
tained when the cases were tried in the
Court below, that they wore not liable on
shares OF increased capital stock held BY
them, for the reason that the increase IN
capital OF s5O0,000 to 900 was unauthoI-
lied and Illegal and they were not parties
to 1t. The Court held that the stockholders
are liable upon their shares OF increased
capital stock; that the defense at law and
the alleged ground of relief in equity are
alike insufficient, and that the Judgments
aud DEGREES OF the Circuit Court IN iavor OF
the receiver must be affirmed In all cases,
and it is so ordered This decision covers
ten cases in this Court and several pending
suits in the Courts of Massachusetts. The
opinion was delivered by Justice Mathews.

House. Attendants state that his condition
is not considered serious The surveyors
would.be assassin, Louis Bieral, is man
who gained some distinction in the war of
the rebellion. He was for about twelve
wears attache to the Custom House. About
a week ago the Surveyor dismissed him
from service. having learned that he was in
the habit of exacting money from entrants
at Castle Garden, where he was recently
stationed. The chief charge Tor when ne
was removed was compelling emigrants TO
pay 50 on sewing machines. He says he is
~ years old.
The prisoner was taken before the injured
official who unhesitatingly identified him.
Baviele said: "Yes, am the man that did it;
ne took bread and butter out of my family's
mouth. The prisoner was subsequently
taken to the TOmbs Police Court, when he
confessed to Justice Murphy having fired
discharged him without cause. He was
born in Valparaiso in 1874, and came to this
country at IA years OF age When 25 years
OF age he enlisted in the irigate Col
umb1a Tor three years cruise
sround the world, during which
he assisted in burning three Chinese
towns for firing on American ships. He
next tspeculated in horses at which he accum-
uaLed considera bic money, and in ls49 he
went to California where he added to his
wealth. He met John Morrisey, Bret Harte
aud others there. He was friend OF Bill
Poole. He served in the first California
regiment in the war of the rebellion, and
was at the battle OF Balls Bluff, where he
rescued Colonel Bakers body and killed
his slayer. For this he was given medal
and pension of $50 month. He had been
in the custom house twenty-five yaars. re-
ceiying his first appointment through Gen
erals Hancock and Sickles. He denies the
charge of taking two dollars from
an immigration girl, for which he
was discharged, and he says that
after shooting the surveyor he turned the
pistol upon himself, but was SO nervous the
pistol ball went through his hat. He was
held to answer for the shooting, The
wounded man, as soon as it was considered
safe, was put into an ambulance and taken
10 his home. The bullet was prooed for to-
night but was not found. This fact causes
no concern to the doctors, as no internal or
gans are believed to be hurt. Alta late
houa he was quiet under an opiate.

English Radical Reform Pro-
ipCts,

LONDON, November John Morley, ac-
companied by Sir william Vernon Har-
court visited Hawardeu to-day with the
special object of inducing Mr. Gladstone to
assent to the radical extension of the Leeds
programme. There is small reason to ex-
pect that Gladstone will aceede to make
either the question OF reform of the House
of Lords or of the church. The question
plank in the platform business as arranged
will be opened by Kitson, Chairman, who
will introduce motion expressing una
bated confidence In Gladstone. Mr.. Morley
will then move for conference TO reatfirm
its belief in the Home Rule project and re-
new its declarations upon the questions of
land, local government and free education.
The absence of any developed policy dis
contents the radicals. The Pail Mall Ga
zette declares that the Liberal party has
become merely an association of men say
ing ditto" to Gladstone and that the deca-
dence of Gladstone is watched with dismay
by his followers, some of whom look for
ward to the Tories remaining in power for
the next ten yeors. section of the dele
gates intend to urge conference to con-
slider proposal to reconcile the Unionists
by affirming that every act or order OF the

ers OF the Imperial Parliament, or contrary
to the existing Imperial acts, VIII be held
