CHINESE SMUGGLING.
An Interesting Trial in Progress at
Portland.

An Interesting Trial in Progress at
Portland.
PORTLAND, Dec. Zone of the most
interesting trials in the history of Oregon,
owing to the political prominence of some
of the defendants, their number and the
grave nature of the offense charged, so far
as relates to those who were Government
officials, began in the United States Dis
trict Court this morning. OF twenty
seven indicted, twenty-two-tWelve of
them Chinese merchantS-werep placed on
trial on the charge of conspiring to un-
lawfully land Chinese. The remaining
five indicted who did not appear for trial
are Nathan Blum, W. b. JackEng, Major
John Wilson, G.. b. Cardineu anu Alex
ander Rose. Blum ahd Jackling have
already pleaded guilty to the charge of
smuggling opium. In this case they will
be witness for the Government. Wilson
is q resident of Vancouver and has not
been extradited. Cardinell is said to be
i'll. Rose has not been arrested and, it is
believed, he is Southern California.
At the opening Of the court this after
noon John NJ. Dearin stated the case for
the Government. He said conspiracy
had been entered into by defendants
Dunbar Blum and Jackling, partners in
the Merchants Steamship Company, to
ers into this country from British Column
bia. He said the evidence would show
the part each defendant played in the
conspiracy.
The defense claimed it was a conspir-
acy on the part Of Blum and Jackling,
who pleaded guilty, to drag down other
defendants.
Nathan Blum was called as a witness
| by the Government, but before he was
1a rNET tod tr l.
witness, on the ground that he had been
convicted of an infamous crime, namely
smuggling opium and Chinese. The
court took the matter under advisement.
If the court sustains the objection it
will be q virtual abandonment of the
case, as the Government based its case al
most entirely on the testimony of Blum.
The court allowed Blum to be sworn and
give his testimony, subject to objection.
Blum testified that Dunbar, jackling,
Thompson and himself, comprising :he
Merchants Steamship Company, decided
about March, 1882, TO enter into the busi-
ness of bringing Chinese laborers into
this country by means OF fraudulent GER
tificates. They had u contract with the
Canadian Pacific Steamship Company to
carry from Vancouver, 3. c., all Chinese
bound for Portland for So apiece. The
business prospered, and they saw they
| could get higher price, SO raised the
fare for Cinnamon to $50 z. J. Bannon.
an attorney and Notary of this city, made
out a large number of blank certificates,
for which he received - each. Ching
| Chong Qui secured photographs and
Blum took them to Vancouver, together
with Bannon's Notarial seal, and there
put the seal on the certificates over the
photographs. Before Blum concluded,
other objections were raised by the de-
fense, and the remainder of the afternoon
was taken up in presenting the law on
the subject.

down into history as the most remark
able of the great series of worlds con-
crosses that have been held in Chicago
this year, and in many respects one of
the most extraordinary conventions
that the universe has ever seen, was in
augurated in the presence of an au-

flowed into the spacious rotunda and
out on the wide plaza It was. the
worlds first parliament of religions, a
series of union meetings with the OBJ
ject of uniting all religions against all
irreligion and Of presenting to the

of the hall Christians sat next to
Buddhists, Brahms beside Greeks, fol-
lowers of Confucius with the high
priests of theosophy, Deists from Bonn
bay and Calcutta with the primates of
the Catholic church in the new land.
For II days the parliament will be in
session, and during this period each
denomination will occupy the time
assigned to it in setting forth the prin-
ciples of the faith it holds and the serv-
ice it has recently rendered to man
kind. There
Will Be No Controversy,
for comparisons or attacks are strictly
prohibited. Peace on earth and good
will toward men will be the ruling
principle. UNCONVENTIONAL difficulties
will be forgotten and each participate
ing body will confine itself to affirming
its own faith and achievements.
