Alnon d-Eycd California Merchants Doing
without high rriocd White Labor.
The Chinese have discovered another
way Of competing with white men. For
years the merchants In Chinatown, par
ticularly those manufacturing cignrs
and clothing, have employed white men
ct large salaries TO drum up interior
trnde- The merchant realizing the
strong feeling against his countrymen,
knew that 1t would be hard for him to
do business personally with white mer-
chants. Many Of the interior mer-
chants, while they were roady to pat
ronize the Chinese firms, did not like
the fact known, and when Chinarnan
dressed In his national costume called
upon him he was inclined to avoid be-
ing seen with him. With the white
drummer. however, the San Francisco
Call says, 1t was different. The latter
could register at any of the hotels, and,
after selling man bill of goods, could
invite the customer 70 drink or take
dinner with him, an invitation none
would accept from Chinaman.
A few months ago, however, the Chi
ncse merchants began to discharge
their high -salnried white drummers and
travel on the road themselves, or filed
the vacancies with their own country
men Little Pete, of jury bribery fame,
who is heavy producer in Chinatown,
was one of the first TO inaugurate the
new custom. He fitted Chinese en-
ployc ort in American clothes, fur
nished him with we'll fitted wig and
sent him out on the road. The vcnt,;rc
was, O success. and Little Pete soon
found his business progressing as well
as when no employed the whito drum
mcr.
In his American dress the general af,-
pearance of the Chinernan, which is 50
Objectionable TO the whites was almost
hidden. In this attire, and with no
queue visible, the interior hotel keeper
made no objection to him, and he was
therefore allowed to extend the same
business courtesies to the white custom
ers as the white drummers.
Othcr Chinese firms soon adopted the
new custom and now there ars nearly
fifty disguised Cinnamon, travelling up
and down this state as druinners- The
presence Of numerous Cinnamon wear
ing wigs and American clothes has
been noticed lately in this city. but few
could explain reason for Il.

IBy Telegraph to the Evening Journal
NEW YORK, July % "A special to the
World from Shamokin, Pa, says that
the police are investigating the death Of
John Weidensane wealthy liveryman
Of Lewisburg. He was taken from a
burning building ON Saturday morning
and on investigation it was found that
he was shot in the head. The cOroner's
jury found that he had committed sui
eide.
The tragedy occurred on the house Of
his sweetheart, Miss Kate Neyhart. Mon
day it was ascertained that his skull had
been crushed by means of blunt instru-
ment. This was the first intimation Of
foul play, although Miss Neyhart strenu-
ously adhered to the original story Of
suicide
More interest is added to the case by
the report of the physicians who made a
post-mortem examination of Weidensane
The found that the bullet that pene-
trated the brain did not fit the chamber
