KNOCKED OUT.
The British Extradition Treaty Finally
Rejected by the Senate.

WAsHINGToY, February 1st.-The Senate
further debated the British extradition
treaty nearly three hours to-day, and it was
finally rejected. 1t had been supposed by
some that, with the Objectionable political
offenses stricken out. it might pass es.
pecially as it was conceded on all sides that
a treaty for the extradition of embezzlers
and forgers was greatly to be desired. but
as was pointed out in the debate this after
noon-the striking out of the Objectionable
cause did not remove that subject from the
field of negotiation, nor would a reference
of the treaty to committee, with the un-
derstanding that it should not be reported,
dispose of it. If the treaty, as amended
were ratified, it would relegate the subject
to the realm of diplomacy, where the rep
resentatives of other contracting Powers
might insist upon having the rejected
clause inserted again, and the treaty, it was
shown, could not forever slumber in a
committees archives without giving offense
So that, in order to definitely dispose of a
treaty which contained any Objectionable
features whatever, it must be rejected.
An earnest effort was made by the friends
of the treaty to save it from rejection, but
their labors were in vain, and the final vote
against it was greater than expected-3S

WASHINGTON, February 1st-Speaking OF
the industrial conditions in San Francisco.
the Commissioner of Labor, in his report,
says: The presence of the Chinese has
had considerable effect upon the indus
trial condition of San Francisco working
women. For number of years it has
been the custom 10 employ Chinese as
house servants almost exclusively Since
the Restriction Act has lessened the sup
ply of Chinese, San Francisco house wives
have attempted to get white girls to do
house-work. To get them Is very difficult
House service has so long been the special
field of the Chinese that white girls think
there is something degrading in the work
Some girls who refuse house-work will,
perhaps, accept work in cigar factory,
which, although employing Chinese, is not
pre-eminently Chinese field of labor. The
fruit canneries of San Francisco afford tenn
porary employment to large number OF
women and girls during the season, which
lasts from June lst to the latter part of Au-
gust.
These canneries employ hundreds of girls.
The rest of the year the cannery girls 90 to
school, engage in domestic service, or stay
at home. In the canneries of San Jose,
Oakland and other neighboring towns, the
girls employed are often of good family
and education, some being school teachers.
who thus spend q portion of their vacation
in not unpleasant occupation which
brings them pin money" In San Frat
cisco the fruit caDnery employees are, as
rule, of the lower class. The canneries are
usually in very dirty, unhealthy condition,
crowded with motley array of people of
all races and of both sexes. The poorest
class OF women in San Francisco are the
seamstreSses.
COMMON TRICK
A number of institutions were discovered
by the Agent of the Department, where IL
regular system Of fraud was being prac-
ticed upon defenseless women. The gen
eral plan of such fraud is, Ill brief, as fol-
lows: A standing advertisement is kept
in the papers asking for girls to do tailor
sewing. When a girl applies she is told
that 1t will take her several weeks to learn
the work, but after she has learned good
wages will be paid. The girl accepts and
goes to work. When she demands pay for
her work she is told that she is not salts
factory, and that she cannot be longer en-
ployed. The sgent found cases of this
kind where women had not only given
their labor, but had also brought
their sewing machines to the fraudu-
lent factories and given the use of
them, and at the END of q month
or more had been sent away without pay.
The exposure of this system, which was
practicsd BY number of disreputable
firms in San Francisco, caused mass
meeting at which Sewing Girls Union
was formed, one of the objects of which is
to prevent such frauds and 10 prosecute
their perpetrators.
The miidness and eyenness of climate
enables working women TO do with less
fuel, less clothing, and even less food. 1t
seldom happens that San Francisco
working woman spends anything for fuel,
except for cooking purposes.

Germany shenld be Made to Restore
samoas Status Quo.

Samoa's Status Quo.
WASHINGTON, February 1st = Senator
Frye of Maine said this evening that to-
days developments in Samoan matters had
not, in his opinion, changed the situation
in any important particular. The Ger
mans, he said. may have abandoned tenn
porarily their rash methods but they have
not in the least changed their purpose. but
on the contrary will go straight forward to
the completion of that purpose, unless some
action is taken by this Government to pre-
vent it. "rhe Germans" said the Senator,
made up their minds long ago to take
possession of the Samoan Islands. and they
will not change their policy in this respect
IS long as the United States Government
offers no objection. Congress should in
struct the President to make a demand
upon Germany for the restoration of the
status quo, and that demand would un-
donbtedly be complied with. She cannot
afford to ignore il, for if the commercial
intercourse between the two countries
should be interrupted Germany would lose
more in week than the possession of
Samoa could repay in a thousand years" :"

THIRsTISG FOR GORE.
A Republican Besieged In Florida Town
by Democrats.


JACKSONVILLE (Fla.), February 1st. =
Much excitement has been created here
over an attempt made last night in Madi-
son to assassinate Hon. Frank W. Pope.
who was the Republican candidate for Gov
ernor in 1884. Pope belongs here, but has
been in Madison since the beginning of the
yellow fever epidemic. He has recently
been employed by F. S. Goodrich the de-
feated Republican candidate for Congress
in the Third District, to represent him in
taking evidence throughout the District in
support of his contest for the seat. Cap
tain Ernest Wilt, United States Commits
sioper, went TO Madison to hear the testi-
mony, and Pope appeared before him.
The news that Pope and Wilt were en-
gagged in this occupation spread around the
country. The feelings of reckless people
were worked upon, ,and a deliberate plan was
laid for last night to assassinate Pope The
Governor yesterday afternoon received
notice that lynching would be attempted
last night, and Sheriff Parramore immedi-
ately collected posse and surrounded the
house which Pope was occupying.
This demoralized the would-be lynchers.
who were surprised to see that their scheme
had been foiled.
Mr.. Pope remained in his house all day,
but it is feared the lynchers will take him
OIL his guard, and strict watch is being
kept by Sheriff posse.
Tonight the excitement runs high. and
another attack is feared. Pope has Just

SAN FRANCISCO, February 1st.-The ex-
bibition car California on Wheels now
at Chicago, is proving so pronounced a
success that it has been decided to keep it
on the road for six months, instead of
three. Further than this, s proposition
will be made at the next meeting of the
Executive Committee of the State Board to
transfer the exhibit, thoroughly renovated
of course, to England, there to make a tour
which shall include the rural districts as
well as the cities.

Allemany, who died in Spain. has been
filed for probate. The Rev. Joseph NJ.
Larroca and Archbishop Riordan are ap-
pointed executors without bonds. The
will is an Geographic one. The property in
California being valued at SIS 900, consist
ing mainly of money in bank.

settlement of the difficulty, now on their
way to Washington, will convince the
Americans of Germany's endeavor to deal

Arkansas, their suppression, and the enact
