Chinese restriction act was a dead letter

been read by the departmental officials,
bringing the news that the Chinese
In that city are getting ready to
return to China In large numbers on
account Of business depression and because
bf their dislike of the laws passed by Con-
sress.
The dispatch sent from here said it would
be impossible to enforce the Geary act
because an appropriation of over SIC, ,O00. 900
would be required TO deport the IO7. 900
Chinese who are now in the United States
according to the census reports. This would
allow an average of 500 for the expense of
6eporting each Chinese person. Treasury
officials believe that 1t would not require 20
per cent Of this amount One thousand
Chinese might easily be packed on each
large ship chartered by the Government for
the purpose. The United States naval ves-
sells might also be employed in this service.
Besides, no one need doubt that when the
Chinese discover that the United States
Government is determined to enforce the
law against them they will hasten TO pro-
vide themselves with registration certff-
Gates. Another misstatement in the dispatch
alluded to was to the effect that only FIVE
Chinese had SO far offered to register. There
have been several hundred.

declined to submit statement of the CON-
pany's prices month by month during 1892.

that the Pennsylvania Company charges
retailers from 65 cents TO 81 per ton more
this year than last. He promised to submit
comparative statement of prices of this
year and last He said retailers were not
making as much this year as In 1891.
Secretary Street denied that there was
any formal agreement entered into at the
tidewater meetings. 1T was the natural
outcome OF circumstances, said he, that
the output during the winter months was
less than during the summer. This was
due to the weather and other causes. The
advance in prices was oceasioned by the
near approach Of the demand TO the out

that his company's output this year was

he said, that prices were liked by the execu-
tive officers of the various COMPANIES upon
the reports OF their respective representa-

meetings it was generally agreed upon as to
what the output and prices should be for

A number of other witnesses were ex.

PACIFIC TAIL GREED.
The True lnwardness of the Panama
Railroad Difficulty,

NEW YORK, Nov. 2S.-General John New
ton, president Of the Panama Railroad. to-
day made long statement in the Evening
Post on the dispute of the road with the
Pacific Mail. He says 1t is mere matter
OF business. and the noisy appeal to
patriotism Of the country is, in fact, in
tended to divert attention from the steam
ship c0npany's audacity and selfishnesS.
1be general quotes at much length the de-
tails OF the old and new agreements between
the companies, and declares the refusal of
the steamship company to give a guarantee
OF good faith by which the company would
oblige itself to seek and carry all freight
and passengers offered between New York
and San Francisco. without reference to the
syndicate Of railroads or any one of them,
was the whole cause of the difficulty. New
ton denies that Monchicour, the French
receiver of the company, was responsible
for the rejection OF the contract with the
Pacific Mail.
The statement closes thus: II wish, in
conclusion, to brand as false the statement
that the Panama Railroad desires to dispose
with American vessels in the transport
service. On the contrary this company has
been endeavoring for months to obtain the
service OF American vessels between New
YORK and Colon, and is anxious to establish
regular line OF American steamships on
this route, and is. moreover, ready to enter
into through billing relations with any
American coast lire areamers between San
Francisco and Panama, except the Pacific
Mall Com pany"

BARON REENACH'S SUICIDE.

Demanded Delay.
Special 10 THE MORNING CALL.

PARIS, Nov. 2S.-An Interpolation was
submitted in the Chamber of Deputies to-
day asking why the Government did not en-
force the law providing for an autopsy in
the case of the sudden death of Baron
Reinach. the banker. supposed to have COM
mitted suicide as result of the damagin z
exposure in the Panama canal management.
Reference was made to the rumors of the
burial as snam.
The Minister OF Justice, Ricard, said the
doctors in attendance had certified that the
Baron's death had resulted from natural
causes and that post mOrtem could not be
ordered without previous judicial interven-
tiOn.
NJ. Brisson, chairman OF the investigating
committee. supported the demand. and said
the official seal should be affixed to Baron
Reinaeh's papers. as il was imperative that
the truth should be discovered.
Premier Loubet said that Brisson's re-
guest was Illegal. Brisson objected, where
upon the Premier said his words could be
interpreted only as indicating lack Of con-
hdence and that he could accept nothing
but the simple order of the day. This Gre

ARCHBISHOP WALSH'S VIEWS.
The Dublin Prelate an Advocate of
BimefaIIiSm

LONDON. Nov 2S.-Bimetallism has found
an advocate In Archbishop Walsh of Dub
lin. In The course Of an interview the
Archbishop declared the adoption of BIZ
metallism was matter of imperative ne
cessity TO save Irish tenants from Inevitable
ruin. ut was disheartening," the Arch
bishop added, "to find no interest taken In
the question by the leaders of the Irish
Parliamentary party. IL things 90 on as
they are. even the excellent land purchase
scheme may become before many years a
source Of widespread.disaster to purchasers
under it." According to the Arch bishops
views foreign competition is not at all the
sole cause OF the ruinous fall in the prices
OF agricultural products. The main cause,
he believes, is the continuous rise In the
price OF gold. What prospect it is," he
added, ''for Irish tenants, whose judicial
rents are fixed for fifteen years, or for ten
ants with annual purchase payments ex-
tending over forty-nine years, that gold has
risen 30 per cent in value within the last
fifteen years. and must continue TO appre-
ciate If Tho present system Is maintained"
The Archbishop concluded by expressing
the hope that the conference a. Brussels
would succeed in solving the monetary
problem.
L nc L OSi, discussing the currency Ques-
ton and the conference at Brussels. CON-
plains that Senator Allison is the represen-
tative merely Of the silver party in the
United States, therefore little can be hoped
for from the conference. as there will be no
chance to discuss any practical arrangement
to utilize silver as subsidiary currency.
The Vienna correspondent of the Chron-
icle says: The American proposals at the
Brussels Monetary Conference. being a
repetition of the bimetalllc programme re-
jected at the conferences Of 1878 and 1881,
have caused disappointment here, as they
fail to supply the basis for further discus
sion without raising false hopes In the sill
YER market. The Rothschllds' proposals
are also regarded with anxiety.
The Times Brussels correspondent says:
The first debates OF the conference Justify
the belief that 1t will yield only negative
results. Thus far, the Americans have
found the support OF only the Dutch dele
gates. all the others maintaining strict
reserve, especially those from Germany and
Austria.

New Zealand, New South Wales, Queens

company had not been paid full sea postage
on letters and had been paid nothing on
other articles contained in the malls re-
ferred TO.
The findings Of the court, which were pre-
pared and read by Judge John Davis,
settled two points in controversy, which
will have most important bearing in the
hnal settlement OF the case. One was the
definition of "sea postage as being the diff
ference between the total postage and the
United States inland postage plus the in
land postage OF the foreign receiving coun-
Try when charged. and plus the intermediate
transit charges when made. The other was
the conclusion that the statute OF limitations
In this case began to run at the end Of each
trip, and that the plaintiff can recover only
for the period beginning six years prior to
the presentation Of his claim to the Post
office Department.

The New York. Presbytery Opens
the Trial.
The Professor Objects to the Charges,
and an Alteration Ensues Among
the Reverend Gentlemen.
Special to THE MORNING CALL

NEW YoRK, Nov. 2S-The members OF
the New York Presbytery assembled this
afternoon for the purpose of trying the
charges of heresy against Charles A.
Briggs. The charges. eight In number,
touch mostly on the denial of the verbal
Inspiration Of the Scriptures and the possi-
bility of salvation aside from the saving
grace of the Scripture.
This afternoon Dr.. Briggs read his answer
to the charges as amended. The response
was most exhaustive summing up OF his
defense and took two hours for delivery.
Among other things DIR. Briggs lays objec-
tioD TO the order and regularity of every
proceeding in the presbYtery in any action
taken against him since tho dismissal OF the
original charges in 1891. He said that if the
presbytery decides against him he will pIo-
ceed under protest and with reservation of
all legal rights.
When Dr. Briggs had concluded Mr..
Lamper OF the prosecuting committee sub
mitted an answer, in which ne attempted-
10 show the falsity of the defendants state
ment that the general nature OF the charges
had been changed in the amended report.
He also claimed that the changes made
were effected in the interest OF conciseness
and with the purpose of meeting the objec-
tions raised by Briggs at the previous trial.
Rev. George Alexander moved, In conse-
quence OF Briggs objections, that the fourth
and seventh charges be stricken out. DIR.
Sutton Immediately offered as an amend.
ment that Briggs objections were not well
taken. lie made an argument on this point.
but was interrupted by DR.. John r. Paxton,
who shouted, Give US a decision and stop
this talking"
Lawyer McCook of the prosecuting COM
mittee restored quiet by proposing that the
consideration of the motion be postponed
until tomorrow. the committee 10 the mean
time to consider The objection. The sug-
gestion was adopted.
CINCINNATI. Nov. 28.-The hcresy case of
Professor Henry Preserved Smith was re-
sumed this morning. A protest against
the action of the presbytery at the
last session In voting TO sustain
the first charge as proper In form
and legal in effect was filed. and arguments
were then offered as TO the legality of the
form and effect of the second charge, which
is that Professor Smith taught that the
Holy Spirit did not control the Inspired
writer's In the composition Of the Holy
Scriptures so as TO make their utterances
absolutely free from error. A number of
members spoke in favor of sustaining the
charges.
