STILL AT LARGE.
Captain Blair'S Chinese
Not Yet Found.
Circuit Judge MCKenHa Orders the
Four Woolen Operatives to
Be DepOrted.

The Chinese servant, Sam Lo, who es-
capped from United States Marshal Long
at Captain Blair's residence, on Van Ness
avenue, Tuesday afternoon has not yet
been found. The Marshal had hopes that
he would put in an appearance at some
Chinatown haunt. but up to a late hour
yesterday afternoon his whereabouts had
not been discovered.
Mr.. Long explains why a search is not
necessary for such persons when the pri-
vate residences Of citizens have to be en-
tered. Search warrants may be obtained
for criminals supposed to be concealed in
the abodes of parties interested in keeping
them out of the reach of the law. but
Chinese accused under the Geary act are
not criminals, and there is no presumption
that anv Caucasian may be endeavOring to
hide them.
The four Chinese operatives of Flint 81
McLennan's WOODEN establishment were
ordered by United States Circuit Judge Nc
Kenna yesterday TO be depOrted. j. f.
McNulty, who swOre out the warrants for
their arrest, testified that he had known
them TO be employed at the warehouse of
the firm mentioned for some years as wool
sorters, and similar testimony was offered
by George Lawler, the manager Of the con-
cern. An attempt to have the Judge let
them out on bail failed. Their cases will
be appealed by Attorney Riordan.

| iature, and the other, Daniel E. Brewster,
| formerly purser on the MaripOsa, but
| now a broker at 335 Post street. The
! Government produced two Chinese wit
nesses, but their evidence actually strength
ened the woman's case.
She is said To have come here on the
| Belgic on the 9th inst, and went to China
October 27. 1856 She says she was mar
ried on February 81, previous TO heI de-

enable further testimony TO be put in.

ceived any word from A;torney-Generai
| Olney as to the funds to be provided for
! the deportation of Chinese, notwithstand-

smugglers to get him into this city. nobody
at the Custom-house could give any en-
| lightenment. The name of the store

telegram to pay their price of admission
was given as &c Shlng's. The only place
| in the Chinese directory that approaches
that name is that Of Gee Sing, 500 jackson
