Secretary Gresham received
cable from the diplomatic officer at
Seoul, Corca, saying general uprising
of natives against Christians, including
number CT citizens of the United
States, is about TO take place Gresham

Extraordinary efforts will be made
to secure an adjudication upon the
Chinese exclusion act by the supreme
court at this term The matter has
been the subject of correspondence be-
tween the governments of the United
States and China, and at the request of
the state department the department
of justice has completed the necessary
preliminaries IN conjunction with coun-
sci for the Chinese government and its
subjects in this country. Under the
terms of the Geary law case TO de
terminc the validity of the. act cannot
be begun until the 5th of next month.

sible to bring n test case before the SUI
preme court of the United States be-
fore the adjournment for the summer
recess. But by the concurrent action
of all parties interested, which has
been secured in view of the important
international character OF the qucs-
tions involved, the standing of the law
will be decided within few weeks,
thus obviating long, tedious and en-
pensivc litigation
