Opinion of a Pekin Official as to How the
 Exclusion Bill Should be Met.
 SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 27.-The steamer Arabic, from Hong Kong and Yokohama, arrived yesterday afternoon. The Japan Gazette has a statement which was published in the The Chinese Times, saying that great animosity is felt at Kwantung against the Chinese minister to the United States, on account of his action in the matter of the treaty which was recently rejected by the Chinese government, and an angry mob en- deavoured to wreck the minister's house.
 The Chinese Times also contains letter signed by Pekiu official, written just after the news had reached China tbat the United States senate had passed the Chinese exclu- sion bill Tho following extract is taken from the letter: If the obnoxious American bill should be carried into effect, there will be no other course open for China, consistent with her dignity as a nation, than to adopt retaliatory measures by prohibiting the citizens of the United States from coming to China This will be by no means proportion ate to the harm done to the Chinese interests In America, but it will have to be done, in order to show that the Chinese can do some thing, and if this will have no effect in bringing the United States congress and the United States government to reason and fairness, then it will be question for China to consider whether it is not time for her to cancel her treaties made with that country, to recall her subjects from there, to expel all the United States citizens from this country, diplomatic and commercial, with that

Stopped by Lack of Powder.

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 27.-A desperate fight took place at Roxie, in Franklin county, forty miles south of Vicksburg, between members of the Roland family on one side and Dr. s. V. Parker and two of his brothers on the other. The fatal shooting of Dr. Parker and the very serious wounding of W. P. Parker resulted.

Rolands daughter, when he was charged with having wife living near Martin, Miss, Great excitement prevails, and it is feared the difficulty is not ended.

Why William Will Not Visit Spain.

BERLIN, Oct. 27.--It has been decided that Emperor Williams visit to Spain shall not take place until spring, but the probabilities are that it will not take place even then. The reasons given for the postponement are that he could not take q direct land route to Mad rid without traversing the entire length of France, which it obviously would be impossi ble for him to do, nor could he reach the Spanish capital by journey without passing through the English channel. Should he take the latter route he must necessarily, matter of decency, land in England. Not to do would unquestionably increase the tension between the London and Berlin courts, while visit to the British Isles at this time would be quite as repugnant to his feelings if not altogether as barren of enthu- siasm, not to say fruitful of insult, as would his passage through France.

POLITICS IN SOUTH CAROLINA.
How They Keep the Campaign Lively in
 the Lonely Mountain Districts.

SIR WEBSTER CUT SHORT
Justice Hannah Intimates He
 Has Talked Enough.
HE HAD LOTS MORE TO SAY.
There Was No Prospect of an Ending for Another Week, He Promised Quota tions from Many. ,Spoeohes-Parnell's Disappearance from Court.


 LONDON, Oct 27-Attorney General Web- ster has concluded his opening address for The Times before the Parnen commission His conclusion was accelerated by hint from Justice Hannah that he had talked long enough When the session opened Sir Richard continued the recital of a catalogue of outrages supposed to be traeeable to mem bers of the league, and then quoted from speeches of Mir. Dillon ard other Parnellites to prove their support of the plan of cam paign. He intimated his intention to deal at length with violent orations of league mem- bers made ill County Glare during the years 1885, 1886 and 1887.
 Sir Charles Russell, counsel for Mr. Par nell, suggested that the attorney general might hand him copies of the speeches he meant to quote from and thus save time.
 Sir Richard intimatei that he had lots more to say, but at length concluded his re- marks by stating that men who had actually participated i'll outrages would be called as witnesses and they would tell what moneys had been paid to them, and how the crimes they were hired to commit were arranged. The court then adjourned until Tuesday.
 The disappearance of MT. Parnell two days ago and his subsequent absence have thrown the gossips and guessers into an acute stage of curiosity and violent throes of specula- tion. It is understood, however, that he is recuperating at the seaside from the exces- sive wearineSs caused by the monotony of Sir Richard WebSter'B long drawn out speech, and will be pretty regular attend ant at the sittings of the commission when the taking of testimony begins, The Par nellites, meanwhile, are analyzing the ad- dress of the attorney general and express great surprise at the numerous discrepancies and inaccuracies therein concerning the sim plest matters of fact. They express the ut most confidence in their ability to demolish with ease the entire structure of the case as presented and intimate that The Times may expect more trouble from the police report CTS it has called as witnesses than from any other persons who will testify in its behalf.
 Justice Hannah allowed the attorney gen. eral the fullest latitude in presenting his case, but will vigorously repress all attempts to introduce irrelevant testimony. In these circumstances it is difficult to see how any considerable number of The Times witnesses can reach the witness box.
