WASHINGTON, May 92.--Henry w.
Blair, our minister to China, that was to
be, is still in Washington. He expects
to leave for his home in New Hampshire
in day or two, having seen the presi-
dent and had some sort Of an under
standing with him.
While it must be annoying to be OBJ
jected to by "A foreign government. Mr..
Blair does not seem to be at all cast
down over the affair.
The situation is not one to give him
any particular concern. He is drawing
salary at the rate of $4,000 d year and
has been receiving that pay since he was
sworn in. If the president does not
make another appointment to China
within the next few months, Mr. Blair
will get more money for being persona
non gratia to China than he did for be-
ing United States senator. Mr., Blair's
retirement from the senate was well
come relief in many respects, but he
never reached the stage of objection
ableness there that would Justify that
body in asking for his recall He was
always in good favor with the senate
when not making speech. To put it
another way, Mr.. Blair is the fortunate
receiver Oh Hl,uVO HlOHIn, Win ulpIO~
matte paddock on his tongue, instead Of
getting $4l7 u month as senator upon
whose speeches no previous question can
be moved.
All things considered, the present ar
rangement is the most satisfactory to the
country. AS to Mr.. DENLY, the minister
resident at China, he will continue to
draw his pay until he reports at the state
deDartment on his return and he will
not start home until he is relieved or re-
called. The duplication of salaries Is
provided for by special appropriation,
which is known as the lapse fund. IL
covers the time consumed in transit by
new and retiring ministers and consuls,
and is a necessary provision. Before the
lapse fund was created deficiency had
to be provided for in every consular and
diplOmatic bill

J. BULL ALARMED
At What He Terms "The He
brew Invasion of England"
Destitute Russian Jews Seeking
a Refuge.

III the Influx Is Not stopped Serious
Outbreak VIII Result, Compared with
Which the New Orleans Lynching
! Would BE a Small Affair-Many Re
Shipped to America and the Colonies.
LONDON, May 22.-England is becom-
ing alarmed at the exodus of destitute
Hebrews from Russia, us large numbers
\ of them are seeking refuge III Great
\ Britain. This movement has assumed
such proportions that is is termed THE
4 Hebrew Invasion of England" 1t is es-
timated that about 800 appeals are made
! each week to the different newspapers
l by individuals urging that the authori-
ties should introduce legislation to ex-
\ clude destitute aliens similar to the i'm
migration law recently adopted by the
\ United States.
\ A Warming Sounded.
The Evening News warns the authori-
ties that if the Hebrew "invasion is not
checked there will grow up an anti
Hebrew movement in England, in com
parison with which the New Orleans
feud would be Il small affair.
On the other hand the manager of a
"shelter," an institution established for
the reception of Hebrews arriving here,
asserts that almost every destitute ar
rival is intrusted to his care, and that
the number does not exceed twenty per
week, fully nine-tenths Of which num-
her are reshipped to New York, Boston
or the English colonies.
Contrary to the Laws.
When questioned as to how these des-
titute Hebrews succeeded in gaining adj
mission into the United States in the
face of the law providing for the exclu-
sion of destitute aliens. the manager of
the Hebrew shelter said: "Oh, we take
care to provide for them before they are
shipped, so that on landing they can
show that they are capable of earning a
living There is no reason that any
country should object to this"
Captured by Sweaters"
A careful investigation of the subject
tends to prove that about 800 weekly is
the correct bulk of destitute Hebrews
captured by the "sweat&s' upon the
arrival of the former in thiS country.
The captured" Hebrews are then
lodged i'll dives in the vicinity of the
dock and work for sweating" tailors at
the lowest possible wages, barely suffi-
cient to keep body and soul together
1t is Also shown that systematic pro-
duration exists in regard to the young
Hebrew girls, and society has been
formed, composed of Hebrew ladies' i'll
order to prevent this system of procura
ton. The ladies composing this society
have arranged to send an inspector to
each ship arriving here with Hebrew
emigrants on board. These inspectors
will warn the Hebrew girls against the
dangers awaiting them and will see that
they are not enticed into the dens which
abound in certain sections of London.

A. R., setting forth that its members
were opposed to the plan; that the cause
of the Union soldiers was right in 1861

DONNELLY'S BOOM.

Farmers Alliance Ofiicers Fear the Min
nesota Man May Lead the New Party.
WASHINGTON, May %. - Ignatius
Donnelly, as presidential candidate, is
contingency much feared at the Ma
tional headquarters of the Farmers ALI
ance here. Donnelly is believed to be
shaping things so as to become the third
larty nominee. He has identified him
self with nearly all of the wings of the
new party, and has dipped into socialism
in his book on Caesars Column" The
part which Dcnnelly took at Il Cincin-
natl gathering is construed at Alliance
headquarters as strong bid for the
presidential nomination. 1t is claimed
here, however, that Donnelly is not a
member of the regular Alliance, but be-
longs to some local organization which
has nothing to do with the National AL
lance movement. This local organiza-
ton is confined to Minnesota, Iowa and
Nebraska, and is not recognized by the
National headquarters. The Donnelly
boom is therefore very distasteful to the
National officials.

BONDED CIGAR FACTORIES.
Assistant Secretary Spaulding Doubts II
They VIII BE Established,


WASHINGTON, May %. - Assistant
Secretary Spaulding has informed New
Orleans firm that the treasury depart
,nent is considering the question as to
whether any regulations for an allow
ance of drawback on articles alleged to
have been manufactured from imported
tobacco can be established without eX-
treme danger to the revenue.
The firm suggested the establishment
of bonded factories for the manufacture
of cigars, cigarettes, etc, exclusively
from imported materials as affording
the most efficient safeguard against
fraudulent claims for drawback on
Articles manufactured from domestic
tobacco, the danger of which is ac-
know7edged to be exceptionally great by
reason of the high duty on foreign tobac-
co and the impossibility of distinguish
ing domestic tobacco from foreign when
manufactured into cigars, cigarettes or
prepared for smoking. Assistant Secre-
tary Spaulding says there is no author
ity in the existing law for the establish
ment of such bonded factories.
