Senator CULLOM,of Illinois, is frank,
candid man, and has never left his
friends in doubt as to what office he
wanted, and how badly he wanted it.
Now that BLAINE is out of the preSi-
dental field, the senator is free to
say that he wants to come III. There
has been no doubt as to his ambition or
the pride with which he has looked
upon the little bOomlet he has been
nurturing for an opportunity like this.
TO the average observer outside of Illi-
noiS it does not seeIn that CULLoM has
any chance to get into the ring so as TO
make much show. He has no barrel like
ALGER, never more the uniform. and
mas no G. A. Z. grip; nor, like
HARRISON or Bob LINCOLN, is
he the legacy Of grandfather
or father. But he can have the vote of
Illinois s0lidly, no doubt, in cOnyen-
yention, except in the rumored contin
gency that Minister Bob LINCOLN shall
be deemed party necessity on account
of the name, and be made the candidate.
This is highly improbable, as be is not
the kind of man the politicians like
when elected. He would, if brought
home for party use, be more likelyt to be
made the candidate for governor of Illi-
inois to help save the state. 1t may be
conceded that CULLOM will have the
Illinois vote at Minneapolis, with posi-
bilitles from other states. 1t is too soon
to presume that the anti HARRISON
Republicans will concentrate on the
Illinois man. Yet it is not improb-
able. He has elements of availa-
bility. For full thirty years he
has been in Office or contriying
how to get there. He started III the leg
lSlature i'll 1860 and was elected speaker.
Then he went to congress. was elected
for four two-year terms, and has filled
in the balance of his time in the senate
He has never known defeat. 1t is a
good deal to say in an announcement or
presidential aspirant that he is a
lucky man, and in thirty years of elect
i've offices he has never been defeated.
A man with that sort of record. and
with no personal enemies, is not hard
for president makers to see when they
are hunting about for an available can
didate. CULLoM is far more popular
among the Republican politicians than
HARRISON, but has not as much gray
matter. He is ota man of great mental
strength, but an average senator and
prOverbially lucky politician.

LOOKS LIKE HARRISON.

With the withdrawal OF BLAINE the
HARRISON forces will now proceed with
the policy of qualification. Relieved of
heavy strain, the machine will doubt
less run more smoothly. Today the

A Well-known Insurance rIan on the
Chinese Question.

Yes. have done as much business with
the Chiuese for the past eleven years as any
insurance man on the coast and probably
more, said Il. ID. Maynard of the Ktna
Insurance Company to The CALL reporter
yesterday.
How is the business now? Why II has
been slowly but surely dropping off for the
past i've years and is q mere bagatelle CON-
pared to what it used to be.
at was nothing unusual for me to issue
from seventy TO eighty policies per month.
Now / consider myself very fortunate If !
get fifty.
Besides we are getting more careful and
are not insuring for such large amounts as
formerly. as stocks are not so large and
the risks ale greater.
"Why are the risks greater? Simply be-
cause business is bad, and when that is so
there is a stronger temptation to make the
insurance companies suffer.
Are the Chinese going out OF business?
Of course they are. Look at Commercial.
Sacramento and Dupont streets and you
will get practical answer tn the question

the renewal of policy the answer has in a
large number of cases been: He go away;
give up business; not come back
''Only yesterday How Kee of How Kee g.

piled business heap no good and he had
made Hp his mind to sell out and 60 home

used to do splendid business, fbut 1t has
been falling off. and he has become thor

drawer-"aIl these books are filed with
the names OF Chinese polcy-hoiders and
they are all cancelled"
Taking up one of the books and turning
over the leaves he said, "There they are,
$1,000. $1,000. $500. $500. 5000 and so on,
and these firms are now out of business.

chinatown is becoming depopulated
owing TO the exclusion act and the fact that
there is no natural increase. Just consider
for moment the large numbers that have
been leaving the country of late and the
small number that have been arriving. If
1t continues much longer in the same pro-
portion 1t STANDS TO reason that in the near
future there won't be any Chinese at all ia
the State.
I'm other places throughout the State We
are cutting off our Chinese policies, particu-
larly in Sacramento. Why? Just because
oil the uncertain condition in which the
Chinese are at present, and the fact that so
many houses are giving up business j
have always found the Chinese honorable

They used to carry large stocks OF shoes
aud clothing, but now both have dwindled
down TO practically nothing.
There must have been an enormous
amount Of capital taken out of the Chinese
business within the past four or five years,
and the probabilities are there will be u
good deal more within the next few
months.

SOME STATISTICS.
Chinese Arrivals and Departures Dur
ing Last Year.


X ii. Swayne of Swayue & Hoyt, Gus
toms brokers, who act for large number
OF Chinese firms, said to a CALL reporter in
the Custom-house Yesterday: "The imports
from China are nothing To what they used
to be. Every year they have been dimn-
isainF, and there does not seem TO be any
prospect of an increase
There are few firms that are still doing
large business, but should the whole OF
Chinatown be depopulated their business
would still continue, as their class Of trade
is mostly done with Europeans.
We all know that large number OF
films have given up business since the re-
s'fietion act. and ! should think about one
third would be near the mark.
Il couldn't tell yen how much flour and
other articles are exported. but the quantity
must be enormous. / would not be sur
prised II the merchants in Hong Kong
dropped their business. seeing there is little
or nothing going the other way.
Just think that 10 twenty years, allowing
the natural order of things to take its course.
there won't be a Chinese in the country If
the restriction act is kept in force.
But they are going fast. Come with me
and we'll see what the arrivals and depart
ures have been for the past year."
An examination of the official record
showed that in 1891 the departures were
6S18; arrivals producing certificates en-
fitting them to land 2165. showing a decrease
oil 1868. or triie over two-thirds. For the
present year The figures could not be ascer-
tanned. IS ths official could not be found.
1 don't think there will be what might
be termed financial crash in Chinatown
about their New Year time" continued Mr.
SwaYne. THE Chinese have plenty of
money, and besides the wholesale men keep
themselves we'll posted. But IL would lot
be surprising IL large number OF houses
retired from business before then"
