MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, July 27.-A special
from Ellensburg, W 7. says news has reached
here of continued flow of Cinnamon into
the United States across the border from
British Columbia. The steamers Of the Cana
dian Pacific between China and Vancouver
bring hundreds of Mongolians every two
weeks. After landing they go eastward into
British Columbia. They work their way
across from Osooyis Lake down the okantent
river and then down the Columbia river
through 8 number of placer mines that are
monopolized by Chinese, and eventually find
their way into the United States.
OTTAWA, July 27.-The Chinese question
on the Pacific coast on Canadian soil promises
to prove bugbsar for the government. Al
though there is duty of $50 per head, the
influx of Celestials Is assuming proportions
regarded as positively alarming by the people
in British Columbia. The minister Of GUS
toms will visit the Pacific coast and IL Ia
limited that the principal object of his trip is
to investigate the question with the object of
adopting restrictive measures at the next ses-
sion.
The fisheries department il advised that
the present year has proved the worst fishing
season for years. The Canadians in small
boats fishing inside the three mile limit have
had the best luck, but the Canadian and
American ssiners have had q hard time of il
on the open sea, and prices are sure to 20 up.
