SAN Francisco, March "A very
large force of police is massed in China
town, as a battle between highbinders is
expected at any hour. Last night mem.
bers OF the Ep Yng Tong society posted
a challenge to the SueY Sing Tong society
and both forces had arrayed for battle
when the police learned of the battle and
dispersed them. Several OF those who
were arrested wore coats of mail. Later,
about midnight, a Chinese courtesan was
shot by an unknown highbinGer who cs-
capped although ten policeman were not
forty yards away. His couutrymen knew
his identity but they refused to reveal it.
The trouble in Chinatown is due to raids
which the police have made on the high
binders stronghold. These criminals
have been prevented from levying black
mail, and the big societies have deter
mined TO clean out the smaller ones. The
Suey Sing society numbers 1000 men,
while EY Yng has only seventy, yet the
latter refuse 70 abandon their organiza
ton and show fight. If the two societies
meet without police near there is sure to
be blOOdshed,

ST. PAUL. March 3.-Mr. and Mrs.
James Hend .rSou. who were married in

couple with an extraordinary history.

Harkness went westward to make his for

ing a teamster driving down a street
past an unfinished building saw the
body OF a dead man on the porch. The
coroner inquest showed that the mans
neck was broken. There was no evidence
duplicating any particular person and the
Jury returned a verdict of accidental
death. Papers found with him identified
the man as George Hardness.
Severa weeks after her return to Jersey
City Mrs. Hardness received from an
anonymous source a letter containing 800.
The letter stated that the writer had been
indirectly responsible for the death of her
husband, and that as long as he lived she
should not want. Every month after that
time she received another anonymous let
tel containing from $50 to 800. The let
ters we're mailed first from Garfield, then
from Bradford, Pa. her from P~ittsburg,
then from Chicago, and then for three
years they came from Montana. In 1888
the young widow received Il letter mailed
at jersey City; then the letters came again
from Montana. Finally, about six months
ago, the writer Of the anonymous letters
requested an interview, which was &c
corded.
The unknown protector proved tn be a
handsome man of about 3S, who gave his
name as james Henderson. To the
widow of George Hardness he explained
the mystery of her husbands tragic
death. He said hat Hardness was in a
gambling room on the second floor, sitting
in an open window. During the evening
a fight ensued between Henderson and a
stranger aud in the melee Henderson
threw the stranger back against the wall,
knocking Hardness out of the window,
tho fall breaking his neck.
Henderson said he was in good circum-
stances and that he had tried to atone for
the accidental killing of Hardness by
keeping his widow from want. The rest
of the story can be told in a line. Mr..
James Henderson and Mrs. J.. George
Hark ness were married last week in .Jer

WASHINGTON, March 3.-Morrow of
California presented a disagreeing confer
ence report on the pension appropriation
bill and a further conference was ordered.
Hit of Illinois submitted the confer
ence report on the diplomatic and consu
lar appropriation bill. Hitt stated that the
only subject which had been in dispute
was the senate amendment relative TO the
Hawaiian Island cable. The proposition
as it now stood reduced the cost from
$1,000, 900 to 50, 500, 900 and provided
that the government of the Hawaiian
islands should pay one-third as much as
our OWE 1t further provides that the
United States could at any m take
the whole property on the payment OF the
actual cost Of construction After debate
the conference report was rejected-yeas

McCreary offered a resolution instruct
ing the conierees on the part Of the house
to insist on the disagreement to the
Hawaiian island cable provision.
Agreed to.
Cannon presented the conference re-
port on the sundry civil bill and it was
agreed to.
The house then took a recess until $50.
At the evening session the speaker laid
before the house the senate Joint resolu-
ton amending the act establishing circuit
courts of appeal by providing that such
courts shall hold their first session on che

CRESTED BUTTE, Colo. March ; The
bodies of all the victims Of the Bullion
King disaster at Irwin have been recov-
cred. The body of Mrs. r. A. Clark
was found yesterday evening near where
the boarding house stood. She vas bur
led in about nine feet of snow. She was
not much bruised and apparently smoth-
cred. The remains. with the body OF
the baby. were brought to Crested Butte
today on a handsled drawn by men on
snow shoes and shipped to Denver.
The body of Capt. B. F. Smiley Was
found about 2:30 this afternoon. He was
in his cabin and had undoubtedly been
killed while eating dinner. The cabin
had been crushed in on him, killing him
instantly. His body will be brought to
Crested Butte tomorrow and shipped to
his home in Factoryville, Ia, for burial.
Out OF seven buildings at the Bullion
King only a part of one, the shaft house,
remains. Two Of these buildings. the
boarding house and Superintendent Kop-
pel's residence, were verv large buildings
aud were built especially to resist the
snow.

A comIng senrcIlr OF Cnrne.

WASHINGTON, March 3-The depart
ment of agriculture predicts a coming
scarcity in meat. Tile natural increase
of herds" says Statistician Dodge, has
been offset by the unusual number of cat
tie marketed during the closing months of
1890, mainly on acsouDt Of the small corn
crop and threatened scarcity Of animal
food. and also by Il heavy reduction of
range cattle on the Pacific coast. Scarcity
OF feeding material, present or antici.
pated, caused IN many districts a rapid
marketing of all stock which purchasers
could be induced to take. Fitness for the
shambles was not considered, the purpose
Icing to retain as small a number OF cattle
as possible on the farm. With high
priced corn. and IN many sections where
drought prevailed last season., dear hay
and other forage, growers felt compelled
to part with their surplus stock at any
price rather than attempt to carry it
through the winter. The records of cattle
receipts 10 the great markets reflect this
almost universal impulse to SELL AT Chi
cago. st. LOUIS, Kansas CITY and Omaha
the receipts Of 1890 were the largest in
the history Of each market. and tic in
crease was mainly during the last SIX
months OF the year. The correspondent
tor Clinton county, Ill, gives the reason
for depletion of numbers as follows:
Decline in numbers due to light corn
crop, everything that would sell being
rushed to market and sold at a loss rather
than run the risk of keeping them over a
long winter on short r%ations; while the
reporter for Marquette county, Wis.
terseiy says that cattle were sold half fat
tened and without regard to price, in con.
sequence of the scarcity OF grain and all
kinds of feed
so heavy has this movement been that
there are indications of scarcity of stock
for iattening for next year, and a demand
is already felt for young cattle to be pre-
pared for next year market

PHILADELPHIA, March 3.-Since last
June the wife of q railroad trainman has
probably sold more valuable silks, laces
and %velvets than the richest lady in the
land has purchased in the same time. She
was the medium through which an
organized gang of train robbers in the
railroads service disposed OF their whole
sale plumber. Part of the gang are under
arrest, and will have a final hearing at
Doylestown tomorrow. For months past
complaints have been made to the officials
of numerous thefts of merchandise from
freight cars, and claims have been pre-
scented to the company for the loss Of
cloths, v~elvets, silks, hosiery. ETC., lost in
transit over the road. The case was
placed in the hands of Chief John G..
O'Brien, of the Readings special officers,
to ferret out. The clues were traced to
the trains on the North Pennsylvania
branch, and the the1ts located as taking
place in Bucks county from trains between
New York and Philadelphia.
On Friday morning Lewis Hansell and
William Covle and Abraham Kulp,
brakemen, were arrested and taken to
Doylestown and given a preliminary hear
ing and bound over for a further hearing.
The value OF the goods taken will amount
20 several thousands OF dollars.

WINDING UP BUSINESS.
Remarkable Closing of a Re-
markable Congress.
The Lobby Getting About All
That It Asks For.
Appropriations Will Aggre-
gate $525, OOO, 900.
Harrison Will Not Call an
Extra Session.


WAsHINGToN. March 3.-This con-
gross Is having a remarkable closing.
There is an air of extraordinary calmness
about the proceedings which cUusume the
closing tweuty-four hours OF congress,
and they are almost devoid of interest.
There is, perhaps. more than the usual
rush in the lJbbies by those who are eager
to press through measures. The lobby
is very active, and is, in a measure, sue
ccssful, though all that was expected 10
the way of getting little measures
through will not be accomplished The
work done today was chiefly in confer
ence committees, the two houses merely
acting on reports, The friends Of
the copyright bull are working hard to
have the Sherman amendment given up
by the senate as they feel If the senate
does not recede the bull will fail The re-
suit of the struggle to Dut mis- ,ellaneous
items on appropriation bills Is still in
doubt, Therefore. 1t is not possible. at
this time, to tell lust what the aggregate
of the appropriations for the session will
be. These miscellaneous items count
enormously during the rush of the closing
nOul5 VI a stHHlOus NJ lut Clpct VI Alt
last session a very liberal estimate was
made, the committees fixing the sun of
those items at s. 5000. 900. but it turned
out that the aggregate was $40, 600. 900
1t is safe to say that the aggregate of all
appropriations will exceed S525, 900. 900:
possibly will be considerably more.
An evening paper says: The president
said to callers yesterday that the report
that he intended to send a 81 eclal mes
sage urging the passage of the federal
elections bill was not true. IL would be.
he said, both superfluous aud useless. The
president said 10 these gentlemen that he
had no idea that an extra session of on
Rress would be necessary. As to the
talked Of special session OF the senate.
the president said he had no intention Of
callinE one. There was, he SAID, nothing
in the present outlook OF public business
which would require it. The president
then told his callers that he was going on
a shooting trip a week after the adjourn
nent of congress to be gone a few days.
