would endeavor to comply with the
registration provisions.


1t was on this understanding that
the treasury department and the at
torncy general recently laid their
heads together in the production of
the pending McCreary modification
of the Everett Chinese bill. When
that bill has been enacted into law, it
is understood that the Six Companies
will be directed by the Chinese gov
ernment to withdraw all opposition
to Chinese registration and both gov
ernments will work in accord in re-
stricting Chinese immigration into
the United States 1t has never been
the wish of the Chinese government
that its subjects should land on these
shores in opposition to the wish of
the people. The extensive immigra-
ton that has been carried on has been
the work of the Chinese Six Compan-
les, that powerful and mysterious
organization of San Francisco, aided
by British steamship companies opera
ting in the British colony Of Hong
Kong, and actuated solely by mer-
cenary motives, Now that both gov
ernments have reached basis of
agreement, it is confidently expected
that the restriction acceptable to both
will be placed on Chinese immigra-
tion IN the future, and that there will
be very little necessity for deportation
under any exclusion act.

Do you want TO be insured, dweller

riodical scourge which threatens to
assail you in the form of chills and fe-
yer or some of the forms of miasma-
born disease? 1t goes without saying
that you do. Then, instead of using
quinine or other alkaloid and mineral
drugs, which merely relieve and are
always detrimental to general health,
seek aid where it is always forthcom-
ing-from the thorough preventive
and remedy, Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters, which, in regions where malaria
is far more violent and prevalent than
it is on this continent, eradicates it
completely from the system. Bilious

and rheumatism are among the mala-
dies to which the national tonic and
corrective is adapted. Physicians ev-
erywhere know its genuine worth.

WOoDRUFF'S FATE.

The case of State of Arkansas VS..
w. E. Woocruff, charged with embez-
element and misappropriation of pub
lie funds, was called for trial in the
Pulaski Circuit court, at Little Rock,
yesterday morning. Both sides an
nounced "ready for trial." The origi-
nal indictment against Mr.. Woodruff
contained two counts and, on motion
of the defence, the State was required
to elect which count it would prose-
cute under. The attorneys for the
State being reduced to this extremity
chose the first count which charges
the defendent with obtaining sigma
lures fraudulently 10 an order to ex-
change certain bonds for script, the
alleged fraudulent signatures being
those of the state debt board compos-
ed of Governor Eagle, Auditor Dun
lop and Secretary Of State B. B.
Chism. This is the case against
Woodruff which the state is now en-
deavoring to establish, and if it fails
the defendent will 20 free. The re-
sult'of the trial is uncertain. twill rest
mainly with the jury, but it is not be-
lieved sympathy will play as impor-
tant part in this trial as on former
occasion, that element having beer

Daca had resulted Ia victory for the lone
star flag of Chile. Still this defeat was
due in a great measure to the cowardice of
the Bolivian soldiers. allies Of Peru. who
had run at the first fire. and the northern
country might have pulled herself together
and given the enemy a tough struggle.
Callao was so well fortified that a naval
force could not be landed there, and a
splendid army was stationed at Lima.
In November an American bark ran
ashore on the north coast of Peru. She
was nOrthbound, in fact was chartered to
a house in San Francisco. and she met
with disaster after rounding Cape Horn
from New York. Among the cargo weIe
several boxes OF rifles, and the officials at
once seized them. and stated as their rea-
son that they believed the vessel to be en-
route to Chile. The claim was an absurd
one, but they had possession. and that was
great deal in those days. The facts in
the case were telegra phed to the American
Board of Marine Underwriters, for the
bark being wrecked il was the duty of the
insurers 10 look after her. and the associa-
tiOn instructed its represp ntatlve on the
west coast of South America, Captain
Henry s. WetmOTe, then stationed at
CallaO, TO secure the release of the ship
and cargo. At the same time the papers
were forwarded to him. Investigation
showed 1t was useless TO argue with the
PTefect in the northern province, aud on
the morning of December II be went to
Lima to ask the executives interference.
He was accompanied by Isaac Lawton,
editor Of the South Pacific Times, the
only English publication at that time
existing on the west coast south OF Pan

of the Government, and the two were at
once admitted To the palace.
President Prado was found in his Office,
and though he appeared To be quite busy
he listened attentively to the case and
carefully examined the papers.

today" said he, "but if you can find it
con venient to call tomorrow l think l can
arrange the matter satisfactorily. From n
cursory glance it seems that an iniustite
has been done, and, IL so, IL shall be
remeded and the goods returned"
Turning to his secretary he bade him
write the project in the province where the
bark was wrecked and at once send par
ticulars explaining his reason for acting Is
he had. Then he bade his visitors good
day and reminded them again to call on
the day following. remarkiDg at the same
time that he should be pleased TO see them
at the state dinner the week f0llowng
So they left and President Prado returned
to his papers, the Office resuming its busi-
ness-like aspect.
After partaking of lunch the Ameri-
can and his editorial companion walked TO
the Aroya Railroad station and took seats
In the train for Callao. The time for
starting passed. and they were wondering
why the delay when 1t was explained by
group appearing on the platform, and,
looking out the window, they saw their
host of an hour before, the President, sur
rounded by number OF aids. The party
took seats in special car that was at
tached TO the rear, and the train pulled
out. Before reaching the main depot In
Callao all trains stop at the Banos del
Aroya, little station on the seashore
where there is good landing place for
small boats, where the largest ba thing
house Is located and where the Callao
Rowing Club then had its headquarters.

to sea and soon was away from man-of-
war row.
"Where can she be going now?" queried
one of the brothers, looking over his
shoulder
No one could answer. The only vessel
ahead OF them was steamer that lay at
short anchor well out from shore. She
had the blue peter at her fore, indicating
sailing day, and clouds of smoke were
pouring from her funnel.
Isn't that the Islay ?" was asked.
YES" said another. And | wonder
what can be OBTAINING her. She was due
to sail at noon. and know the mails were
sent aboard hours ago."
But 1t was toward the steamship Islav,
the crack side wheel packet of the Pacific
Steam Navigation Company, plying be-
tween Callao and Panama, that the state
barge was headed and the racing shell fol-
lowed, though the boys had TO bend
sturdily 10 their oars, for the bluejackets
ahead were setting a more lively pace,
evidently In a hurry TO have their supe-
riors transact what business there was to
be done and return TO the shore, where
dinner would soon be ready.
Fifteen minutes from the time the last
gun sounded on the Union the executives
boat was alongside the 1slay's gangway.
When visiting the men-of-war two or
three aids had accompanied the President
onto the vessels decks, but this time we
could hear PTadO instruct his officers to
remain in the boat saying he wished to
see somebody on board for moment on
personal business and would at once re-
turn. The words were scarcely ont of his
mouth when he ran up the gangway,
carrying only a walking-stick.

boilers was escaping at a lively rate from

his boathook.

We glanced up and so did the men in the
barge. A burly quartermaster was lean
ing over the ISlav's rail and evidently ad-
dressing the aforementioned bowman.
The latter, not understanding English,
smiled at the British Tar and held on.

officer OH the bridge.

or three sailors aud they hauled upon a
rope that caused the gangplank to slowly
rise.
''Anchor apeak, sir % called out the first
officer from the bow.
Hurry up with that gangway, men"
shouted the same voice from the bridge.
The expression on the faces of the
officers and men in the state barge was one
of terror. Was their President being
kidnapped? What did it mean? The Islay
was putting to sea, the gaDgway was half
up and Prado was not to be seen. They
