TRIAL OF M'KENZiE's BIG BATCH.
First One Pleads Guilty-Gus Jansen, OF
Seattle, Charged With Snug
Cling in Portland.

An How, q well-known Chinese resident Of
seattle, was brought before nited States Com
missioner Emery yesterday charged with being
uniawfully in this country. He had made
trip to Victoria, aud upon his return was ar
rested by Customs Inspector Coblentz Upon
hls establishing tha fact OF his residence here
tor fourteen years the commissioner let him GO
The circumstances of An How's case were
quite unusual He is a merchant in Seattle
and Is supposed to be one OF the most wealthy
Cinnamon in the city. lie has lived here for
over fourteen years. working for Bailey Gatzert
Henry l. Yesler and Others for long time
About two weeks ago he asked permission
OF Deputy Collector Mckenzie to go to
victoria on business. Mr.. Mckenzie told him
that he thought Ii would be al right, ana All
How started Soon after he was gone Mr.. Nc
kcnzie saw Collector WATSON az Port Townsend
and the collector, after looking up the subject
decided that he could not let All How come
back. He Immediately forwarded a statement
OF the case to the secretary of the treasury at
Washington City.
Meanwhile, All How, having finished his bust
ness in Victoria, started to come back. He ap-
piled first to one steamer and then TO another
for passage to Seattle, but they all refused to
carry him. Determined to get home, he hired
small sloop and came on that, being arrested
upon his landing.
Commissioner Emery in making his decision
took occasion TO give the reasons for his action
he SAID that while the Chinese exclusion act
was intended to totally exclude Chinese from
entering the United States and the collector was
doubtless acting under the law, the judicial
representatives OF the government did not
recognize the secretary of the treasury, but
rather looked to the spirit and intention of the
law. He was satisfied that All How went over
to Victoria in good faith, expecting that ne
would be allowed to come back without any
trouble. Strictly speaking he had violated the
law but equitabiy he belonged in the United
States and, applying all the principles OF right
and justice. the commissioner would have to
discharge him.

ths city now boasts two rival Democratic clubs.
One meets on Monday night at the corner OF
Fifth and Pike streets, and the other on Friday

When the present Central Democratic Club
was organized the plan was to- organize auxil-
larry or subordinate clubs in every ward in the
city and in every voting precinct in the
county. Accordingly ward clubs under the
new system have been formed in every ward.
The Filth Ward Club chose these officers: Presi.
Gent, N. Phillips; vice president, ). NJ. Lyon;
secretary, c. B. Bird; treasurer. C. J. Maidment,
H.; executive committee, Daniel Kelleher,
George II. Fortson aud Alfred Bottle.

the recognition which they desired, for in few

Gus Jansen, arrested at Portland the other
day with 40 pounds of contraband opium in his
possession, was formerly night baggageman at
the Northern Pacific depot in Seattle.
While he was there he preferred charges
against Customs Inspector z. T. Holden, charg-
ing him with getting away with part of a
cache of opiuih wrapped up in bundle OF
blankets in a trunk Holden had caught the
trunk on the train and had left il at the depot
over night with nothing but light rope around

1t was found that part of the "stuff" was gone.
The baggagemau accused Holden OF the work.
