broke out in Chinese quarters, and
not fifty yards from the business por-
ton of the city. There have been
several outbreaks, but they resulted
in only occasional wounding of some
Cinnamon. Last night, however, the
war was in earnest, and for half a
minute there was a perfect fusilade in
the street from the headquarters of two
Highlander societies. Shots were ex-
changed across the street in rapid sue
cession and the air was full of flying
bullets. An electric car, filled with
passengers, happened to be ON the
track between the contesting parties
and a storm Of bullets whistled
through the car about the heads of
passengers who clambered out rapidly
as possible The conductor and
doned their post in haste. When the
rattle was over two Cinnamon were
found dead and another wounded
through the thigh. A number of
Cinnamon are probably wounded but
have been concealed by their friends.
One party did the shooting from a
balcony. One man, an exile cigar
maker, who has wife and two chill
dren, was shot and killed while in his
own place of business. The police ar
rested seven children, all of whom
were armed with large pistols, several

Are Adopted.
w0rK CUT our FOR THE CONSULS

NEW YORK, Nov 29-The Senate Immi-
grafton Committee, previous to adjourning,
considered the following proposition, with
out, however, reaching any conclusion: All
immigration, except from North and South
American countries, shall be suspended for
one year from March 1, 1898, the law to be
so framed as not to hinder the free return of
American citizens or the easy admission OF
visitors. 1t is probable that vote will be
taken at to-morrow's meeting. and there is
good reason for believing it will pass.
1t was determined, in view of the appre-
hended danger of the coming of cholera
during the sumer of 1S93 to limit the pres
ent consideration OF the subject to the
question of the total suspension of immi-
grafton for one year. The committee also
decided that it is advisable to submit to
Congress for consideration a law embracing
the following propositions:
First-No immigrant shall be admitted to
the United States between the ages IL and DO
wears unless he can reud and write freely
his native language.
Second-No Immigrant shall be admitted
unless he possesses 500 in money or its
equivalent, except that the head OF family
may bring with him, or send 10Y the other
members of his family, If he or they possess
SIS for each member.
Third-Au intending immigrants shall
bring with them certificates from United
states consuls, showing that they have salts
fed such consul that they have right to
admission as immigrants.
Fourth-Au persons seeking final natural
ization papers shall give srasonable notice
to the court TO which they intend to apply,
and some official representing the Govern
ment shall investigate the facts upon the
other side when the application is consid-
er6u,'

fore Judges Acneson and Burlington i'll the

ment of a patent signaling apparatus in
vented by Robert L. Sykes, of ENGLAND.
Sykes assigned the title to the invention to
a countIyman, Fred ChesSWright who OBJ
tanned patents in the United States. In
order to prosecute his business in this coun-
try, Chesswrlght gave ID. NJ. Ieomans power
of attorney. 1eomans, about lSS2, gave the
Union Switch and Signal Company the sole
right to manufacture and sell the invention
in the United States at royalty OF G4 per
lever.
In 1883 Chesswright revoked Yeoman's
power of attorney and gave the johnson
company the sole right to use the invention.
The johnson company brought suit for in
fringement and the Union Switch and signal
Company filed cross bill setting forth that
they own the exclusive right under Yeo-
mans power. The question of title is being
