ing been paid by the Chinese Six Compa.
MES for the publication of the pro- Chinese
artcles. Resolutions denouncing the En-
dn,iner were adopted. Following is their
substance:
WHEREAS, The Examiner of this city claims to
pc Democratic paper. and pretends to be q
1rlend OF the working masses. Whereas the
Erdmtner, with the purpose of aiding C. II.
huntington and the New York Chamber OF
commerce in their efforts to repeal the Exclu-
sion Act, has tor the first time sent to the East
ern states false impressions that California is
divided on the Chinese question; therefore
hesotved, That we condemn the course of the
Examiner in thus having proved itself a traitor
TO the working masses; that its statements as to
Inc condition of affairs in this State in the mat
ter OF labor are false and that it merits the con-
tempt shown for it since it became the advocate
OF Chinese slave labor
Resolved, That we condemn the course of Sem
ator Hearst in permitting his paper the ErGn,-
tneT 10 mlsrepsent the feelings OF the masses in
California on the Chinese question, and to cast
insults upon the laborers OF our State
ReSolued, That from this time henceforth we
cease 10 patronlze the Examiner, because of its
treaehery not only to the working masses, but
to all classes in California save monopolists and
because 1t has proved itself dangerous enemy
to the State
Resoired, That we petition the Legislature OF
this State to submit the question for or against
Chinese immigration to the voters of California
Immediately after its adjournment, and that a
petition for signatures be circulated for that
purpose.
The following resolutions were also
adopted:
WHEREAS. George Hearst, C. P. Huntington
the New York Chamber of Commerce and the
Pacific Mail Steamship Company have engaged
Ex-Governor Headly, of Ohio as leading coun.
sci to appeal the ease of Chae Chun Ping, who
made motion on the Sth Of this month to have

PREsIDENr-ELECT HARRISON.
Delegations interviewing Him in the In
terest of 0fice-Seekers.


INDIANAPOLIS, January 18Th. = Among
the callers on General Harrison to-day was
ex-Congressman John s. Wise, late of Vir-
ginia but now of New York. His visit was
unexpected, but General Harrison gave
him Virginia welcome and invited him
to lunch, midday meal, over which the
General and his guest spent half an hour in
private conversation. What passed between
them can only be judged from an interview
had with Mr.. Wise, on his return from
General Harrison's. to an Associated Press
correspondent. Wise declared bis visit had
no political significance, but that he had
lawsuit at Akron, Ohio, and ran over
TO see General Harrison Oh Sunday.
He would not admit that the
visit of twenty-five prominent Vir-
ginians in the interest of General Ma
hone furnished motive for his visit, but in
the course of his conversation he inveighed
against the celebrated little General with
all his old-time fire, declaring it would be
disastrous to the Republican party in the
South to put General Malone in the Cabi.
net. When asked whether he made such
declarations to the President-elect, he de-
cllned to state what passed in their CONVEX
sation. He vehemently proclaimed that
Malone lost the vote of Virginia to Gen
eral Harrison in the late election. Some
Wise had agreed to keep his hands off in
their efforts to obtain Cabinet position for
General Malone. Wise did not corroborate
this, but emphaticaAy denied that he agreed
to keep his hands off. He left for Akron
this evening.
Another distinguished visitor who ar
rived is John F. Plummer, a well-known
New York merchant, President of the
Harrison and Morton Dry Goods Club of
New York, and Vice President of the Union
League Club. He will be joined late to-
night by Hon. Warner Bateman of New
York, and it is understood will urge Cabi-
net recognition for ex-senator Warner
Miller.
Another party of New Workers are en-
route from Canaiourie, with State Senator
W. g. Arkell at their head 1t is under
stood this party comes to urge the case of
ex-senator Plat, and that they are in favor
OF some third man from New York in case
the President elect cannot honor Platt.

THE SAMOAN TROUBLE.
Consul-General Sewa,rs Testimony b
fore the Senate Committee

Consul-General Sewa,I's Testimony Be
fore the Senate Committee.
WASHINGTON January 13th.-The Senate
Committee on Foreign Relations continued
yesterday the examination of Consul Gen.
eral Sewall, Of Samoa, concerning the con-
dition of affairs in the islands of that
group. 1t was continued on the lines laid
down Friday, but went more largely into
the relations of the several Governments
interested in the maintenance of the orderly
condition of the affairs on the island, and
therefore was more confidential in Its ma
ture.
The substance of Sewall's statement,
which reviewed in great length the events
OF the last few years and up to the present
time, did not refer to any action on the
part of the representatives of the United
States, but to the fermentation by interested
foreigners of native dissensions and to the
desire exhibited in a marked degree by
those in charge of local German interests
to obtain personal and commercial ad-
vantages and political supremacy.
Mr.. Sewall has been requested to remain
over and appear before the committee again
on Monday

An Impression That Trouble May Arise
Among Workmen.

WASHINGTON, January 13th.-There is an
impression among naval officers that there
will be an outbreak on the isthmus. There
are $4,000 men employed on the Panama
canal, and the cessation of work is apt to
be followed by a riot. Under the existing
treaty this country is required to keep
transit open on the isthmus, and in the
event of hostilities there will be need of
United States vessels at Aspinwall and
Panama. The Atlanta. which is now at
New York, has been ordered TO prepare for
sea, and will leave for Aspinwall on Thurs
day The ship will be temporarily attached
to the North Atlantic squadron, prior to
making a trip around the world. The
Galena is in the West Indies and the
Ossipee is expected daily at Aspinwall
The Trenton is at Panama, but is expected
to proceed to Samoa, and the only other
vessels available are the Monocacy and
