OTTAWA, Ont, March 2.-From present
indications there is likely to be no material
change in the Chinese restrictive act passed
last session. The British government has,
in view of certain negotiations which are
now going on between Great Britain and
China, intimated to the Dominion govern
ment that they desire that no steps shall be
taken at present regarding more restrictive
measure for the expulsion or exclusion Of
Chinese, which might have tendency to
disturb the good feeling now existing be-
tween the two countries, and possibly defeat
the diplomatic negotiations now going on.

most serious embargo was thereby placed

strikers demand that the rate of wages shall
be uniform as that on other lines of the city,
that II hours work shall suffice for day,
and that better treatment shall be exercised
on the part of the men in charge of them.
The conductors and drivers have no griev-
ance, but being in sympathy with the sta
blemen have also struck.

The Bates MIN Trouble.

LEWISTON, March 2.Mr. Pratt, agent of
the Bates Manufacturing Company, has
handed to his overseers list of prices ad-
iusted ON the basis Of ten per cent rise. So
far as is known the prices are satisfactory
to the help and there is a strong and grow
ing desire among the employees to return to
work The only issue between the Bates
Company and the Knights of Labor is
whether the employe dalton shall be taken
back or not. The ground taken by Mr..
Pratt, that he being responsible to the own
ers for the good management of the mill,
must in the exercise of sound discretion be
the judge of who he shall employ, is on ma
ture and sober reflection by the employees
generally conceded to be fair.

1t will not be denied, l suppose, that the

am quite prepared to ayOw that the cases are
not few in which the suspensions from Office

not felt justified in suSpecting the veraclty
integrity and patriotism of Senators, or lg-
nOring their representations because they
were not in party affliation with the majority
of their associates and | recall few suSpen-

jority in the Senate.
While therefore, am constrained to deny
the right of the Senate to the papers ana

the same is. based on the claim IAN tnst
they are in any view OF the SUP

eduivocally to dispute the right OF the

ever or in any way save through the Judicial
process of trial or impeac hment to review
suspension during the recess of the Senate of
federal officials.
| believe the power to remove or to sus-
pend such officials is vested in the President
only by the Constitution, which, in express
terms, provides that ''the executive power
shall be vested in a President of the United
States of America," and that ''he shall take
care that the laws be faithfully executed. "
The Senate belongs to the Legislative duties
the right to advise and consent to appoint

SCIENTIFIC SOCIALISTS.
An Organization Teaching Murder, Arson
and the Use of Dynamite.

SEATTLE, w. T., June THE United
States grand jury has found Indictment
against 10 leaders of the recent anti-Chi-
nese riots in this city. The jury's report
alleges that there exists throughout the
country a reasonable organization known
as the RED American International
Workingmen's association" This asso-
citation, with all its branches, is essentially
anarchial in theory and practice. The
main articles of its creed are arson, rob
berry and murder Its proclaimed pur-
pose is the overthrow of our government
and the erection upon its ruins of
a so-called socialist commonwealth
All the outrages on Puget sound
arising nomnally from the agitation of
the Chinese question, were really foment-
ed and produced by this infamous assoca.
ton. The scientific socialists of the Red
American International Workingmen S
Association are, us shown by unmistak-
able documentary evidence, secretly in
structing their deluded, ignorant and
brutaliZed followers in the means OF prac-
tically applying dynamite; how to seize
armories and military stores how to pre-
vent the departure of troops from concen-
trating points to preserve order in centres
of Instruction to imprison and destroy
men of property and influence.

MIR. BEECHER NOT DEAD.


NEW YORK, June 6.-The rumor current
early yesterday morning that Rev. Henry
Ward Beecher, pastor of Plymouth
churh, Brooklyn, had dropped dead very
suddenly, and that the family had been
called to the Brooklyn parsonage, proves
to have been utterly unfounded and un-
warranted. Mr.. Beecher delivered his
usual Friday evening lecture in the
church, and took occasion to say that he
was neverin better physical health than at
present. He was tired mentally, he said,
and asked for vacation, which was
granted He intends going abroad soon,
and Mrs Beecher will accompany him.
Mr. Beecher was found at his home enjoy
ing an ample dinner, and stated that he
was never in better health. The rumor
caused him mirth.
