Annoyance to Which the New Chinese Minis
ter Was Subjected at San Francisco.

SAN Francisco, April 6-The new Chinese
Minister arrived the Gaelic to-day. Just as
he, followed by his suite, was about to step
ashore, he was stopped by customs officer, who
informed him that he could not allow him
to pass till he had shown, by properly authenti-
Gated documents, that he was entitled to land in
the United States. The Chinese Consul general
and the Chinese consul, who were present TO re-
ceive the Minister, expressed some indignation
that such formality should be required in
this instance, but as the officer insisted the Min
lister dispatched one of his secretaries for his
credentials accrediting him to the government
of the United States. When these were pro-
duced, the surveyor informed the Minister
that the customs officers must have something
to show that he and his suite had been properly
admitted to this port The Minister'S passport
was then sent for and, after q duplicate certif-
cate copy had been made, the embassy was
allowed to land. Counsel Bee has made the fol-
lowing statement in Yeeard to the matter:
Secretary Bayard sent instructions to the col
lector Of this port to permit the legation to land
Just at the moment his Excellency and
suite were about to step ashore, the
surveyor informed the collector he
had just sent an order not to
permit the legation to land until his Excellencys
credentials were sent to the custom house for
examination. This was communicated to his
Excellency, who expressed much surprise at the
action of the collector remarking that
his government had instructed him to
only present his Credentials to the
President of the United States,
and adding they were packed in his baggage un-
der seal, and it would be very inconvenient to
got at them at the moment, and, therefore, he
preferred to remain on the ship until comnuni-
cation could be had with Washington. Finally
after q delay of an hour and half, the Minister
and suite were permitted to leave the Ship

where he had been born, and he told me in
house yonder where the soldiers we're and which
had been his own. 1t had been built from the
ground by his father, who had originally taken
five acres, partly of rough grass and partly for
tillage Thirty years ago he had himself re-
claimed two and half acres more from the
mountain, going down to the valley for lime and
carrying it up in baskets on his head at shilling
basket About this time, having some saw
ings, he paid EGO for the tenant right OF another
bit of eight acres, but the very next year the
landlord had taken this away from him without
COMPENSATION. He now held seven and half
acrss-five inherited from his father and two
and half reclaimed by himsef-and for this he
paid 10 per annum. People had advised him to
go into court TO get the rent lowered, but where

him, for seventy years. He pathetically said:

II found the house, continues Mr. Blunt s'oc-

Fears of Serious Damage Along the Ohio Un-
less Fall of Temperature Occurs.

CINCINNATI April 6.-Although the damage
by the rise in the Ohio river has not been very
heavy, the greatest apprehensionis Is felt tonight
owing the state of the weather and the reports
from above. 1t has been showing here constant
ly since p. NJ. yesterday, and at 10 o'clock to-
night continues Similar reports are received
from points above, and with heavy rise at
Pittsburg it is feared that disastrous foods will
ensue. The river is 81 Act inches at 10 o'clock
tonight, and stationary but it is rising 100 miles
above, and there will undoubtedly be rise here
by tomorrow. The only hope is for sudden
fall in the temperature. for should the enormous
fall of snow melt there is no telling when the
rise would cease.

Wilfrfd Blunt Gives Practical Example of
the Working of the Rent Regulations.
LONDON. April 6-Mr. Wilfrid Blunt. so we'll
known as friend to Arab, and the husband of
Lady Anna Lovelace. the granddaughter Of Lord
Byron, publishes, to-day, an interesting inter-
view with an Irish tenant as an average exam
pie of the true relations all such tenants bear to
the landlords. Mr.. Blunt has just returned
from Kilronan in the county Roscommon,
where Lord Kingston has been exciting his ten
antry, and In Arigna, in O'Kelly's district, near
the boundary line of Roscommon and Sligo
This is tract of mountain land, thickly peopled.
The little whitewashed houses of the present
tenants dot the landscape close up to each other,
right up to the crest of the bill, in plats of five
to ten acres. and show distinctly how the land
has been reclaimed. Here the Celtic population.
being driven from the better lands in the plains,
have taken refuge in times past and reclaimed
the soil at their own cost, and built these dwell
ings with their own hands Mr.. Blunt thus mar
rates his interview with the tenant. Patrick Mo-
Manus, q little old man of seventy, hunched,
bent and bowed, but cheerful uader his misfor-
tunes
II found him in q neichbor's house, where he
had been taken in through charity. ! asked him
