Special TO the RECoRD-UNIoN.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 14.-Judge Nor
row this morning denied the bail to five
Cahuenga Chinese now here awaiting a
decision of the United States Supreme
Court on their appeal from the District
Court decision. denying them the writs
of habeas corpus. This makes a curious
complication.
The Chinese are at present confined in
the Alameda County Jail, though, accord
ing to Judge Ross decision, they cannot
be imprisoned, as they have committed
no crime. They cannot be deported be-
cause of their appeal to the Supreme
Court, and they cannot go free because of
that appeal.
The Chinese will bring suit against
Marshal Gard for false imprisonment. If
he releases them he will be guilty of con-
tempt OF court of the Northern District of
California, which has refused them bail.
If he does not release them he is liable
for damages, as the ruling OF the District
Court of southern California states that
they are not criminals and cannot be i'm
prisOned.
CHINESE CLEARING OUT OF RIVERSIDE.
Chinese arrests made here on Wednes-
day. Chinese vegetable peddlers, laundry
men and cooks in the hotels quit work
to-day. The Celestials are very much
frightened over the turn affairs have
taken, and Chinatown is rapidly being
thinned Of its population by the Chinese
leaving for other parts. The Ceestials
are hiding in the brush in the river bot
toms and in other places afOrding seclu-
sion.
THE EVERETT BILL.
WAsHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE sub-com-
mittee of the Foreign Affairs Committee
OF the House held a meeting tonight at
the residence of Representative Nc
Cleary, Chairman. to consider the Ever
EFT bill for an extension of the limit of
time allowed for Chinese to register un-
til September l, 1894. With practical
unanimity the subcommittee agreed to
perfect the law where it was legally de-
tectiVe, TO reduce the time limit to SIX
months instead of year as proposed in
the original bill, and definitely define the
term Chinese labOrer.
Representative Geary of California in
sisted that provision be placed in the
bill requiring the photographing of all
Cinnamon who registered under the law,
or some other equally absolute means OF
Identifying those VINO registered, in or
der to prevent the use Of their certificates
by others. Other members OF the sub
committee were in favor of permitting
the Secretary of the Treasury 10 make
regulations for identification, as under
the present law. Geary found himself in
a hopeless minority, but declares that
nothing less than some absolute means
of identification would be acceptable to
the Pacific Coast, and although he has
not decided what course to pursue, it is
evident that he intends to fight the bill
as agreed upon by the Subcommittee to-
night, both in the full committee and in
the house.

Petition Filed With the President by a
Mormon for Amnesty.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.-On the 24th Of
last July David A. Sanders of Plymouth,
Utah, filed an application with the De-
partment Of Justice for amnesty for vio-
lating the laws relating to unlawful CO.
habitation. The applicant says he did not
receive the benefit of President Harri-
sons amnesty proclamation, for the rea-
son that his unlawful relations did not
cease until a few days after the time men
toned by the proclamation as the limit
November, 1870. He says he has not vio-
lated any law OF the country, except that
relating to cohabitation, and that he has
not violated this law for more than two
and a half years. President Cleveland is
in doubt whether he can properly grant
pardon, and before acting on it has re-
ferred it back to the Attorney General for
his opinion.

by 1t. Responding to the demand for
purity In elections, many States have en-
acted laws TO protect and purify the bal
lot.
The report concludes that these statutes
should he speedily repealed, because they
mix State and Federal authority; because
they have been and will be used as part
OF the machinery of political parties to
forward friends and destroy enemies; be-
cause under them the rights OF citizens
have been taken from them; because
their enactment shows the distrust of
States and their ability to guard elections,
and, last, because their repeal VIII elimi-
nate the Judiciary from the political arena
and restore somewhat the confidence of
the people in the integrity and impair
tlality of the Federal judiciary.
The minority report. prepal ed by John
son of North Dakota, goes at length into
the constitutiOnality OF these laws, draws
picture of the conditions existing prior
10 their enactment, in 1863, from a report
prepared then by Congressman Law
renee of Ohio, and the condition OF al
fairs after their enactment, and from the
report OF the late Sunset Cox of Ohio
III 1877.
1t is remarkable tnat the minority re-
port does not even allude to the effects of
the election laws in the South. This,
Johnson says. is in accordance with the
policy of the Republicans not to raise the
bloody-shirt cry. They say il it is raised

IN THE SENATE.
WASHINGTON, Sept. l4.-Faulkner of
West Virginia offered in the Senate his
amendment to the repeal bill providing
Tor the coinage of silver bullion now in
the Treasury, and the monthly purchase
! thereafter OF enough silver to coin 3,On0,-
900 silver dollars, which. together with
all silver dollars before coined, shall be
legal tenders.
The repeal bill was then taken up, and
Daniel OF West Virginia took the floor in
opposition.
Daniel said he would attempt to DEM
onstrate, as he was confident he could,
that the worldwide monetary convul-
sion was due 20 three principal causa-
tions. First, the enormous increase of
the debt; second, the continuous and un-
precedented fall in prices for over quar-
ter of century; third, the contempora-
neous destruction OF the bimetallic base
OF credit at the dictation OF the European
money kings. He said more money was
needed and the repeal of the Sherman
Act would have a contrary effect. 1t
! would contract the currency by S50, ,000,
OOJ per annun. He favored a sound cur
rency, every dollar of which should be
maintained at par with every other dol
lar, and that it should consist of gold,
silver and paper money, payable i'll them.
In 1892 there were two opinions in
which there was general occurrence:
First, the Sherman law ought to be re-
pealed; and, second, gold and silver
ought to be coined without discrimina-
tlons or charge for mintage. He thought
those concurrent opinions should now be
embodied in one Act. Referring to the
intimations OF a deal between Southern
| and Western Senators, he said he enter
tanned the financial views he did long be-
fore he had intimately associated with
| the Westerners.

A Score of More or Less Prominent
People Under Indictment.

Three more indictments for SNUG
Cling were reported Saturday by the
federal grand jury, and before midnight
William Dunbar, g. j. Mulkey and
Captain l.. g. Sweeney had been ar
rested and held in $1,000 apiece to an
swer when arraigned. There are nine
counts in the Dunbar indictment,
Mulkey has 1S against him and
Sweeney one. Each of them alleges
opium smuggling.
There are now 20 persons under in
dictment fer smuggling, 10 Of whom
were indicted last term. Against Nat
Blum there are six indictments; Will
liam Dunbar, five; G. ]. Mulkey and

Brighton committed suicide In Jail,
and Does identity is as much a mystery
as 1t was when the indictment was re-
turned against him. 1t has been said
that John was an East Sider, who had
passed away from earth before the
bench warrant for his arrest was issued
but the district attorney neither denies
nor aff1rms the report. Doe is the only

arrested.
The first of the smuggling cases was
called today in the United States dis
trict court, when Nat Blum will be
given opportunity to defend himself
against a charge of smuggling 300
pounds of opium. AS this case is ex-
pected to reveal Mats attitude toward
the other defendants, large and atten

looked for.

from afar to testify against the alleged
practitioners of customs dodging is

REMARKABLE CLUB OFFER.
Weekly Oregonian-To Be Had With
Weekly Journal at a Cut Rate.

The New York Tribune Weekly and
Weekly Inter-Ocean, as we'll as some
SIN FIR ,ncisco wreklies are offering the
press of Oregon clubbing arrangements
by which they rut their papers in at
almost nothing or at merely nominal
rates. The Eastern weeklies are a
week or more behind with news, and
like the California weeklies contain no
Oregon news or markets. But for some
reason they want circulation in Ore
gon, and hence offer publishers their
paper so low as to club the two papers
at the price of one. And they are not
cheap at that. To meet this competi-
lion we are authorized to offer club
rate on the Weekly Oregonian and
WEEKLY JOURNAL, at $500 a year for
both papers. The price of The JOUR-
NAL alone is $3.50. The price of the
Oregonian alone is $3.50. The JOUR-
NAL has the exclusive right at Salem
to make this offer, and all who desire
to get this cut rate can do so by paying
for the WEEKLY JOURNAL and Weekly
Oregonian, at the rate of $500 for both
papers IN advance. Neither paper will
be sent after time for which payment is
made. 1t is needless to say that the
Weekly Oregonian is worth more to
Oregon people than any four Eastern
or California weeklies, and is by all
odds the cheapest weekly newspaper
the Oregon farmers can buy. OF course,
At this special cut rate, no premium
can be given with either paper. Order
by mail or at THE JOURNAL office,
next door to the postoffice.
