CHINESE WILL RESIST.

The Six Companies of San Francisco EN-
pIoy Counsel to Test the Validity of the
Exclusion Act-They Command Their
Countrymen Not TO Register.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 1.-THE con-
solidsted Benevolent Association of the
Six Companies, powerful Chinese organ
ization which comprises all the wealthy
Chinese merchants of the country, and
which, together with the Chinese con-
sular officers, regulates affairs OF
the Chinese in this country, has
issued proclamation from headquarters
in this city torbidding Chinese in
the United States to comply with the terms
of the Geary bill, requiring them to regis
ter and have themselves identified by two
white witnesses and be photographed be-
fore April, 1893. The proclamation states
that the masters of the Six Companies, after
a careful investigation, have found that the
registration law is Objectionable and detrl-
mental to their interests. 1t continues:
Our countrymen must live in these United
States without being registered. If one
should be registered on his own account he
must not come to US in case he gets into
trouble in this country The Six Companies
will pay no attention to him IL he does.
When a man does register he loses respecta-
bility in the eyes of his countrymen. This
applies to Cinnamon living in any part of
the country, and in small towns as we'll as
large cities. Ifby refusing to register man
is arrested, imprisoned or punished, he can
depend on the Six Companies for relief.
The proclamation states that Chinese will
be required to organize and subscribe money
for the employment of legal aid, and, if
necessary, enlist the services Of the Chinese
Ambassadors to fight against his alleged
injustice. The lawyers have been engaged
here by the Six Companies. Each Chinese
resident of the United States is required
to paw 81 to the Six Companies for
expense of suit to test the legality of the
registration law, and this money must be paid
before the Chinese September. The China
man who does not pay will be prevented
from returning to his own country when
he applies to the Six Companies for his
pass. The proclamation concludes by say
ing the United States does not treat Chi
nese right because it compels no other ma
tion to do such things, and no other
nation in the world treats the Chinese as
the United States does
Collector Quinn was seen regarding the
action of the Six Companies, and said:
The Chinese have so far neglected to reg
lister, but do not believe they will abso-
lutely refuse to do so. We had eight men
who had shipped as mess boys on one of the
United States cruisers come around to reg
lister, and after explaining the matter they
went to get their pictures taken. 1t is too
early to say what we propose doing in the
matter, but We will get up a good test case
when the time comes.
Attorney Riordan, who has been engaged
by the Six Companies, asserts that the law
is clearly unconstitutional

Deoicatorv Services at the Fair Buildings to
BE Unique and Interesting.
George V. Massey, of Dover, Del, q
prominent member of the National Com
mission Of the Columbian Exposition and
chief among the Council of Administration
recently formed, was a passenger on the
limited last evening on his way to Chicago.
He had a good deal to say regard
ing the coming dedicatory services
of the great Fair buildings. Everything
will be in readiness without doubt and
there is no fear of a hitch of any chsrac-
ter. All departments that are to be used on
the occasion will be perfected by the end of
the present month.
Mr.. Massey said the $500, 900 lately
granted would be of immense service
to the commission for building purposes,
but of course there would be some
minor demands made on Congress for
the committees works. "The geological
and Horticultural exhibitions will surpass
the world in grandeur" said the gentle
man from Delaware, land I wonder If Eden
could be tairer than what the visitors to
Chicago in '93 will witness among the fow-
ers and plants of America and its foreign
competitors.
The dedicatory services, Mr. Massey said,
would be preceded ny several street
pageants, both civic and military.

THE INNOCENCE OF YOUTH.
Judicious Tolerance and Experience to B
Used In Teaching tho Young.

Judicious Tolerance and Experience to Be
Used in Teaching tho Young.
"Not only have I thought constantly and
deeply on this subject for many years, but
have had during that time intimate and
affectlonate relations with many children,
both boys and girls, of widely varied
natures; and the conclusion at which 1 have
arrived is that this natural curiosity of
growing minds in regard to all subjects
should be met by older people with wise
and judicious tolerance, and satisfied by q
disclosure of as much of what is the truth as
the grown person in question thinks the
child capable of comprehending," SAYS
Amelia Rives in the North American Review.
''Of course, in the moral education
of young girls, due reference should be had
to their characteristics both of body and
mind. Some intellects can digest and ben
fit by knowledge which would only burden
and disturb those less strong or those which
are unduly excitable and imaginative.
That which, according to my views, should
be avoided, is system of training from
which all instruction, or at least all clear
instruction, as to the rules of health and
life, has been vigorously eliminated A
knowledge of the laws which govern phys
ical nature seems to me not only the right
of every thinking being, but the only
means by which people will ever be brought
to look simply, wisely and innocently at
certain fundamental facts, upon which rests
the whole structure of existence"

world on matters pertaining to guns, pro-
jectiles and resistants, admits the superb
ority Of the plates developed in America,
the tests of which the late critics of the de-

presented to be through the partiality of
Commodore Folger for the Harvey process.

Allegheny postoffice on his mind a portion
of the time in his absence in New York, as
he had happened accidently to meet
some of the parties who are inter-

the sites, but there were other things of SO
much more Importance than this building
that it would have to walt. So also with
the appointment of an immigrant inspector.
He had heard from the glassworkers in re-

the opponents of that candidate, whose name
unfortunately he would not divulge Neither
would he make public the nature of the op-
position. There was too much cholera in
the air to consider these things The inn
migrant inspector could wait with the Alie-
gheny postofice.

TWO CHANGES TO MAKE

the Baker Baiot-Attorney General
Russell Harrison Interviewed While
at Philadelphia.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept 12-ISoeciaL J.
ttorney General Hensel has decided upon
o notifications of the Baker ballot, and
i'll give out an official announcement in q
" days 1t is understood that the group
'ature, as advocated by Chairman Reeder,
nd the sliding scale plan touching the
democratic column, as advocated by Chair
man Wright, comprise the changes to be
made. A heavy black line will separate
the Republican from the Democratic
column, and the latter begins an inch down
from the Republican list
"There is little advantage to our voters
in such an arrangement, said Chairman
Wright, to-day, in explanation of his posi-
tion. "By the present plan it is the most
natural thing in the world for voters 10
mark their preference at the head instead OF
in the square at the end OF the name, and
there is less likelihood of mistakes occur
ring by dropping the list down from the
present given or even line"
'What will the Attorney General do on
this ballot question:" was the query to
General Reeder.
''He is entitled to make his own an
nouncement, and 1 shall not anticipate his
decision. We had conference, and / am
violating no agreement in saying that MI.
Hensel sees the necessity of some modifca-
tions in the form, and will be likely to
make them known officially in few davs"
The executive cottage at Cape May Point
closed to-day for the season, when Russell
T. Harrison and family came on TO this
city and returned 10 Washington. They
have been the sole occupants of the cottage
since the first week in June, President Har-
rison passing but one Sunday there this
summer At the time of the Presidents
visit Private Secretary Halford accom-
panied him.
Russell Harrison is looking we'll. He
will leave Washington tomorrow for New
York, where he proposes to give all at
tention possible to the campaign. "Chair-
man Carter has the situation well in hand"
said Mr. Harrison, to-day ''The
campaign is more advanced and much more
encouraging than this month four wears
ago and the reports tell a most encouraging
story OF the work being done. There is
nothing in the statements about dissensions
at headguarters-nothlng whatever. IF
there was any lack of harmony 1 would
know something about it, don't you think?'
Russell B. has been Chairman Carter's
confidential adviser right along and repre-
sents the President direct He did not
deem it advisable to refer to the Vermont
election-in tact, he was quite silent about
1t when spoken to.

ITALY HATES AMERICANS.

A New Story of the Murder of Seaman
Reilly Because of His Nationality.
LONDON, Sept. 1.-THE latest advices re-
ceived here from Genoa regarding the mur-
der of Frank Reilly, the seaman of the
United States steamer Newark. who was
killed on the night of September in a
lodging house in Genoa, show that national
animus against Americans was the cause of
the crime The proprietor of the lodging
house, when the Newark's men applied to
him for lodging, used most abusive Ian
guage to them simply because they were
Americans
One of those present, knowing the pro-
prietor, advised the men that it was unsafe
Tor them to remain in the place. All the
sailors started for the door, whereupon the
proprietor, with knife in each hand,
sprang toward Reilly and stuck both the
weapons in his back. Reilly staggered to
the street, where he fell and died in few
minutes. The murder was entirely un-
provoked, and Reilly was killed for no
other reason than that he was an American.

TO file with you my nomination certificate.
You will perceive it is in exact accordance
with the law regulating the same,
properly signed and sworn to, but it
does not have on the back certificates of
any county or city chairman. My counsel
is of the opinion that the law does not re-
guire such a certificate"
Nh. Tilden received the certificate, and
efter making some joculsr reference to Mr.
Fow's contest in the Seventeenth district,
marked it ''fled.''

THE JOURNEY OF 1cEsERes.



Only One Practicable Path That Can Take
Them Past the Arctic Circle.
'Tt does not seem likely that more than
100 or 200 large icebergs make their way
each year in the only practicable path that
can take them beyond the Arctic Circle
that which is afforded by the current which
sets out of Davis Strait, and down the Lab
rador shore, and then eastward into the At
lantic," says Prof. N. s. Shaler in Scrt6nsr
''Though somewhat inconstant, this current
is tolerably steady stream, setting south
through the wide channel which separates
the shores of Greenland from those of the
many islands which beset the northeast
coast of the American continent. By
this southward-moving water the ice
is propelled out into the open sea.
The stream continues to the south, but
widens and diminishes In the energy
of Its flow. 1t shortly comes in contact
with the Gulf stream, which it somewhat
affects, and by which it is much affected. A
part of the southwark setting current passes
down along the shore of Labrador as q
superficial stream of no great width or
part, flows beneath the Gulf stream, and in
time Joins the great, slow-moving procession
of Arctic waters which, following the bot
tom Of the deeper sea, in the end attain the
equatorial district
"For a considerable distance southeast
of Greenland there are thus two distinct
currents in the ocean waters-a lower,
moving southwardly, and an upper, or
superficial stratum, creeping toward the
North. The thin foe-ice, floating alto
gether within hundred feet of the surface,
is beaten back against the Labrador shore
by the surface stream; but the ice
bergs, because of their greater depth,
are driven forward by the under
current in southwardly direction. Owing
to this popularity we sometimes may
observe the bergs ploughing their way
through vast fields of foe-ice as steadfastly
as steamship when it breaks its way in the
newformed ice of q harbor."

as to the inability Of the snake harmin e

would strike against the glass he al
