left their own country and were
voluntarily living in the United
States upon the same footing as
our own citizens; in this case the
men were wearing the uniforms of
the United States sailors and were
only temporarily absent from their
ship which was lying in the har-
Dor, near at hand, flying the flag
of the United States. Our naval
force at present in the vicinity OF
Chill is unfortunately small, but
if necessary we can soon mass
sufficient force there to teach these
upstarts a lesson they will not
soon forget. The administration
is determined that the fullest rep
aration shall be made for this in
|sult.
Senator Palmer, of Illinois, now
in Washington, has a good deal to
SAY about probable Democratic
presidential candidates from other
states, but for some reason he does
not have word to say about the
gentleman from his own state
Hon. w. r. ("Horizontal Bill")
Morrlson-who devotes that part
of his time not taken up by his
duties as member of the Inter
State Commerce commission. to
imagining that he is in the field as
ia Democratic presidential candi
date. Perhaps Senator Palmer
has not heard of this Illinois can
didate.
Hon. George S. Bachelor, of
New York, U. S. Minister to Port
|ugal and formerly assistant secre-
tary Of the treasury, is in Wash
ington comforting with the depart
ment of state on the treaty which
is being negotiated by him with
Portugal. He goes to New York
this week to take part in the cam
paign, which he is confident. will
result in the election of Fassett.
.Attorney-G General Miller is just
Enow puzzling his brain to answer
a question asked by the United
States marshal at Pembina, North
Dakota. Two Cinnamon were Or
dered to be returned to Canada,
the country whence they came;
the marshal took them to the Ca
madam border, but the Canadian
official declined to let them in un-
lless they paid the head tax of $50
each which Canadian law imposes
upon Chinese immigrants. This
/ x -
the Cinnamon refuse to pay, and
the marshal, still having them in
custody, telcgraphed to the attor-
ney- general for instructions. The
trouble seems TO have arisen from
IA diversity of decisions as to which
is the country they should be sent
back to, China or the last country
they come from when they enter
the United States.
Secretary Blaine, looking the
very picture Of manly vigor, EN-
tered his office at the state depart
ment today for the first time in
NEARLY six months. During the
time he remained in the office he
was given no opportunity to do
anything else but receive the con-
Igratulations and good wishes of
the stream of callers, which en-
braced about all the prominent
people of Washington. He called
on the President within half an
Ihour of his return to Washington,
and yesterday he spent several
hours with Mr.. Harrison. The re-
llation between the.two men is of
the most cordial nature.
Elk Speaker Reed stopped in
Washington on his way to Ohio,
where he goes to speak for McKin-
| ley. He reports the prospects for
Republican success i'll Massachu-
setts, where he has been cam
paigning, to be excellent. He
thinks it is only question of get

llicans to carry the state by a
handsome majority.
Ex-senator ingalls, was in Wash
ington on his way to deliver lee

the recent report of his illness was
exaggerated. He had some trou-
