SLOVENIAN Versus Bayar,l

SACRAMENTO, Dec. 26.-Governol
Stoneman to-day received n dispatch
from Bayard, from Washington
in which the writer states that his
attention has been called by the
Chinese minister to q movement in
different cities it this State for expul-
sion of Chinese. The Chinese min.
lister suggests that it is preferable to
prevent violence than to repress it
after it may have arisen.
In reply to Secretary Bayard Gov.
Stoneman telegraphed: "There
has not been single act of violence
toward the Chinese in this State, nor
do anticipate any trouble which
cannot be controlled by the local
authorities. There is a deep-seated
and unanimous feeling on this coast
against further immigration oil
Chinese. Thousands of good cit.
liens are unable to obtain q liveli-
hood, owing to their presence.
In conclusion he says: "Refer-
ing to the suggestions of the Chinese
minister to yourself, as to the proper
method of preserving good order in
this State, l may say we are capable
OF performing that duty without
gratuitous suggestions from that
quarter"
The Result OF a Long Strike fn the Goa
Mines.
PrTsBURG, Dec. 27.-This is the
fourth month OF the big Mononga.
hela river miners strike. At the
close of the spring run on the river
there were seventy-two pits in ope
ration, employing over 1000 men.
Today the situation is sirikinely diff.
ferent. Dilapidated coal tipples,
wrecked cars, sunken barges can be
seen at different points between
Pittsbure and the fourth pool, a
distance of sixty miles. A CORE.
spondent of the Dispatch took a trip
up the Monongahela to-day and saw
the wretchedpess of many of the
golfers, who have not made dollar
for tho last four months. When the
river mines are in operation fully
half million dollars is paid out in
wages each month. Since The strike
was inausurated not more than
$500 900 has besn paid to working
miners, aud that was in store orders,
worth about 25 per cent. off. This
shows an actual loss in round mum
bers of about $4,000, 900. business
at the many thriving towns along
the Monongahela valley is paralyzed.
A number of merchants have been
sold out by the Sheriff on account CT
the loss Of patronage.
