THE POLICE COMMISSION.
The Gambling investigation Again Con
tinued.

The Gambling Investi CATION Again Con-
tinued.
The matter of investigating official
corruption in connection with Chinese
gambling, came up again yesterday, after
numberless postponements, before the
police commission.
Officer Stephenson was the first wit
ness. He stated that Officer Bevan, of
the Chinatown squad, had requested him
to confine himrelf to his own beat if he
wanted Bevan to be friendly to him.
Officer Puryis was recalled, and ques-
toned on the same point, and gave tes-
timony substantially the same as at the
last meeting.
Ex-Chief of Police Burns, and Mr.. G.
D. Platt, who had been subp9naed,
failed to appear, and the matter was con-
tinued until Mr.. Burns appeared.
Chief OF Police Glass considered that
some of the testimony given before the
police commission at former meetings is
open to impeachment. He stated that
ex Officer Dorsey in his testimony
claimed to have arrested, in two months
OF his service, 300 Chinese for gambling.
A copy of the records, attested by Sec.
retary Curran of the department, pre-
pared for the chief, shows that Officer
Dorsey arrested during his stay in
Chinatown 81 Chinese, of whom AZ were
convicted and 25 dismissed.
The chief also stated that ex-Chief
Darcy in his testimony claimed to have
turned into the city treasury, from
fines, $4,000 a month from convicte d
Chinese gamblers. The chief has had
prepared statement by the secretary,
according to which only 15 Cinnamon
were arrested in Captain Darcy's ad-
ministration, and nothing is said about
the disposition of their cases.
1t is probable that Mr.. Dorsey and
Captain Darcy will reply to these ex-
tracts from the records at the next
meeting of the commission.

IT SEEMS that Sam Rainey, who was
one of Buckeyes most trusted lieuten-
ants in San Francisco, hss got together
the remnant of the Buckleyitee, and
with smattering of Democrats who are
disgruntled at the action of the reorgan-
lied Democracy, have attempted to set
themselves up as the Simon pure Demo-
cratic party OF that city. They have
had the irrepressible gall to apply for
recognition to the election board, and
that board has had the effrontery to
take under consideration their claim to
registration as the Democratic party of
San Francisco. This is most bare
faced attempt to disfranchise the regular
organization, and as the election board
is controlled by Republicans, the motive
is clearly to give the Kelly -Crimmins
ticket whatever advantage it can. Gould

The featherweight mill fought in San
Francisco, Thursday night, between
Solly Smith, Los Angeles boy, and
George Siddons, New York light
weight, has never been surpassed for
the power to endure punishment shown
by both the contestants. Just think of
these boys, weighing less than 120
pounds each, being permitted to batter
each other for fifty rounds in the most
brutal manner, whilst great crowd of
spectators looked on without trying to
stop the inhuman spectacle. They
both fought until they were exhausted,
when the brutal display ceased perforce.
Smith is native OF Los Angeles, and
we should be proud of his tenacity and
endurance if they were tested in some
useful service. Our climate brings
many things to perfection; but we are
not anxious that it should prove to sur
pass that of other countries in produc-
ing successful prize fighters.

Three Riverside Youngsters and their
Adventures.
About IL O'Clock last night Officer
Rinkenbach found three boys in the
neighborhood OF Spring and First streets,
who seemed to be at loss to know
what to do with themselves. The off,
Ger took them to the station where they
were questioned aa to the location of
their homes. They said they had come
from Riverside, and their general ap-
pearance bore this theory out. for they
were covered with dust and looked as
though they had spent some time on a
dusty brake-beam.
Whether they were merely tourists or
travelling for their health, they would
not say, but from the fact that each one
was armed with formidable sling shot,
it is thought they had started in pursuit
of Evans ond Sontag. They gave their
names as Clint Young. Chas. Smith and
John Bliss, and were given lodging for
the night.

Our city schools will reopen next
Monday, the 3D. instant. The teachers,
many. of whom have spent their long
vacation in distant excursions, have
nearly all returned ready to resume

Union that has done better for the cause

unsurpassed for the fine accommodations
they provide for the children. 1t is to

ONE of the amusing vagaries of the

THERE are strong indications that we
shall have an early winter season in
California. Rains have already COM

part of the state, and the atmosphere in
this section has been heavy and appar.

days past. Should the present month
bring us few dense showers, they
would do more good than harm. The

ADJUSTMENTS.

A very effective consistent DIT OF act
ing was done by Miss Emily Bancker
last evening at the Opera house, in the
one act playRFrederic Lemaitre, which
preceded The Junior Partner. The skit
is built on somewhat like the same lines
as David Garrick, Miss Bancker taking
the role which corresponds to Emily
Ingot in the latter. The part is that of
an ingenue; little milliner who be-
comes stage struck, and who seeks the
counsel of Lemaitre, the great French
actor. Miss Bancker displayed most
effective strength, depicting the un-
sophisticated, head-turned girl, with
complete conception of the naivete and
sweet simplicity which belongs to the
role.
/ Mr.. Miller played the part of Le-
maiire as he does all his roles, with an
admirable display OF the technical part
of his art, but never being quite able to
conceal his identity in that Of the char
acter he assumes.
The Junior Partner comes very close
| to being farce comedy. 1t is played
with the requisite snap and dash, and
pleased the house immensely. Mics

fact, whatever may be thought of her
capability as an artist. Her merriment

sary laughs.

The star performers of the play, how

/ The play is one which is constructed
regardless of any other intention except
that of amusing, and in this it succeeds,
as the audience gave evidence in vigor-
Gus applause. A series of little acci-
dents-Mr. Miller, in his anxiety to be
forcible, breaking vase and then ta-
BILE, and the curtain failing to fall at the
end OF the second act-did not act as a
hoodoo. Indeed, they appeared to form

be we'll satisfied with the performance.

IRELAND ATTACKED.
He Is Accused of disappearing the
Archbishops,

He IL Accused OF disappearing the
Arclbishops.
ST. LOUIS, Dec. 20.--Conde B. Pallen
editor of The Church Progress, who has
made no secret of his hostility to Arch.
bishop Ireland's school doctrines, was
acked to make reply to the interview
with that prelate. Mr.. Fallen spoke as
follows:
archbishop Ireland does exactly
what he accuses his opponents of doing
that is, attempting to create a public
opinion in their own favor. His whole
interview is nothing more than an ap-
peal to what he calls the American
mind OF, in reality, to secular public
opinion in this country.
"Secularism has always been in the
history of the church an antagonistic
factor, inasmuch as it usually represents
the opinion of the world; and we may
lay it down as fundamental axiom that
the world, the flesh and the devil are
triple alliance against the spiritual in
terests of the church. l can not con-
ceive surer indication of the weakness
of cause than to appeal from Christ to
Caesar.
Notwithstanding Archbishop Ire
lands statement that Mgr. Satolli is
vested with plenipotentiary powers TO
settle the school question, we have no
evidence to that effect. On the contrary
both Archbishop Katzer and Archbishop
Elder have publicly declared that Mgr.
Satolli has no such powers, and more
over, the fact that the archbishops in
their recent conference refused to sub
scribe to Mgr Satollis views is very
clear evidence that those views were not
supported by the weight of the popes
authority.
''The assumption in Archbishop Ire
lands interview that his position on the
school question is also the position of
the American Catholic mind seems to be
Enthusiastically overstrained, for he was
the only one in the entire conference who
was ready to subscribe to Mgr. Satolii's
school propositions. And when it is re-
membered that each archbishop not
only expressed his own opinion when ne
rejected them, but also the concordant
Judgment of each of his suffragans, a
more imposing array of American Cath
Ole opinion against that of Archbishop
Ireland could not be conceived. He was
the solitary minority in the conference,
and may be, therefore, said not to repre-
sent the American Catholic mind on
this question, but the very reverse.
ITO certain extent Archbishop Ire
lands declaration that there is no diff
ference of opinion among the hierarchy
in this matter is true, if we leave his
own dissenting views out of considera-
ton. With this restriction we may say,
indeed, that the American hierarchy are
a unit on the school question. For the
unanimous agreement of the hierarchy,
always excepting himself, of course,
makes it very evident that the Fari-
bault plan, or any other scheme to sep
arate religious from secular education,
is Numerically opposed to the convic-
tons of the hierarchy in the United
States"

CHINESE UPRISING.
Exclusion Act to BE Fought Through All
Peaceable Means.

EAciutOn ACT TO be FOuGht through All
Peaoeable Means.
PITTsBURG, Dec. 20.--A strong con-
certed movement has been started by
the Chinese of the United States to re-
sist the Chinese exclusion act. Hon.
Yung Wung, formerly commissioner of
education for the Chinese government,
writes Rev. e. II. Donehoo of this city,
that three different plans of resistance
have been decided upon.
The constitutionality of the act will
be first tested and the well known con-
stitutional lawyers, Joseph H. Choate
and Charles II. Seward, will have charge
of the case.
Then the Oriental club of New York,
will try to arouse public sympathy
through mass meetings, and congress
will be flooded with petitions demand
ing the repeal of the law. A poll tax
of 81 a head will be levied on every Chi
naman in the United States to defray
expenses This will mean a fund of
over $100, 900.
Finally the Chinese government will
protest, an falling retaliation will fol-
low. There will be no recourse to arms
but there will be an abrogation of
treaty righ' all commercial commune
cation will 70 shut off, and the govern
ment will cease protection to the 1000
American merchants and the several
hundred missionaries now in China.

THE DYING STATESMAN.
There 10 But Momentary Encouragement
In Ills Condition.


In Ills Condition.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 20--A reporter
visited Mr. Blaine's house Monday
morning and was informed by the at
tendant who answered the bell that
Mr.. Blaine was a little better this
morning and had a fairly good nights
rest"
A great many officials stopped at the
house on their way to their offices Mon
day morning and received the same in
formation in regard to Mr., Blaine's con-
dition. Secretary John w. Foster was
one of the earliest callers and Senator
Paddock was not far behind him. Each
of them subsequently said that he had
been told that there had been a slight
improvement in Mr.. Blaines condition.
That the ex-secretary is dying no one
now denies and the desperate condition
of the patient was shown Monday morn
ing when Doctor Albert L. LOOMS, the
specialist in Bright's disease, reached
here, having come on the midnight
train from New York in answer to a
summons from James G. Blaine, Jr. He
was at the house at o o'clock in consul
tation with the other physicians.
Mrs. Emmons Blaine arrived at mid
night, and now all of Mr.. Blaines near
relatives are at his bedside.
DIR. johnson visited the patient as
usual Monday morning, but he declined
to make any forecasts as to the future.
He said Mr. Blaine might survive sew
eral days or he might pass away at any
time, and the family had come to full
realization of his condition.
A Rather Favorable Bulletin.
This bulletin was issued by the physi-
clans Monday afternoon:
Although Mr. Blaine's condition during
the last week has given serious anxiety,
yet at the present moment he is decidedly
better and in no immediate danger. 1t is
impossible to predict what changes may
occur, but his condition this morning gives
more hopeful feeling as to the progress
of his disease
