AT WASHINGTON.
The State Department Not Greatly
Disappointed.

Disappointed.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 15-News
of the Boring sea decision was not re-
ceived at the state department with that
degree Of disappointment that might be
supposed. Private information had
come to the department that matters in
Paris were not looking favorable for
the case of the United States, and the
recent forecastings of the decision,
which have appeared in the British
newspapers have been received with
much more attention than is usually &C
corded to the ordinary rumor from
abroad concerning international affairs.
Beside, there has not always been ex-
IRENE confidence in administration cir
cIes in the strength of the case of the
United States, and considerable differ
ence of opinion has existed as to the
Justice of the claims made by this gov
eminent. Some weeks ago a dispatch
from Paris to the Pail Mall Gazette
gave what purported to be a partial de-
cision of the arbitrator against the
United States. This dispatch was shown
to Secretary Gresham. with the ques-
ton if he did not think it improbable
because immature.
Mr.. Gresham replied that while he had
no advices bearing on the subject of a
decision the information contained in
the dispatch was of so direct a charac-
ter that it seemed to him to possess the
elements of truth. From this and other
remarks made by the state department
officials the impression was created that
the government had received private
information that an adverse decision
might be expected.
Secretary Gresham's first definite in
formation concerning the decision hand
ed down today came to him early this
morning in a cable message from the
Hon. John w. Foster. ex-secretary Of
state, and agent for the United States
in the arbitration. Secretary Gresham
was asked TO give an expression of opin-
ion on the decision, but this he declined
TO do. holding that it would not be prop
er for him to comment on the matter
Mr. Gresham communicated the news to
President Cleveland at Gray Gables,
and also had long conference with
Secretary Carlisle, presumably with ref
erence to future action concerning the
maintenance of our fleet in Boring sea-
1t is probable that all the vessels COM
posing IL will be withdrawn, with the

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. ia crusade
against Chinese laborers has been
started in Fresno and other places in the
San Joaquin valley and seems to be
spreading over the state
Owing to the financial troubles large
numbers of white men are out Of work.
while many Chinese are employed stead
lily on ranches and vineyards. 1t looks
as if the Chinese will be displaced Thus
far violence has been narrowly averted.
At Selma, a small town near Fresno,
white men notified the Chinese that they
must leave town and make room for
white laborers.
At Fresno yesterday unemployed men
to the number OF over 500 held a meet
ing and paraded through the streets de-
nouncing the Chinese. The crowd start
ed toward Chinatown where 1000
Chinese reside. but was diverted from
its purpose by cool-headed citizens. The
merchants and vineyardists Of Fresno
held a meeting and many Of them an
nOunced that they would discharge their
Chinese help and employ white labor
One man took thirty white men on the
spot and marched them off To his vine
yard. Another announced that in a few
days he would have work for 200 men.
Thus far there has been no violence and
it looks as if the unemployed white men
in the San joaquin valley would dis
place Chinese labor.
At Tulare and other towns in that sec
ton the vineyardists and ranchers say
they will employ whites. A bureau Of
registration has been established for
white men and as they are needed they
will be given work.

which will be used in maintaining the
protective zone of sixty miles about the
sealing islands of the United States, in
accordance with the decision of the arbi-
traitors.
The regulations Of the arbitrator ap-
pended to the decision are adopted under
Art. VII of the treaty of arbitration.
These regulations are based on an agree
ment submitted by a joint commission
appointed by Great Britain and the
United States. In accordance with Art.
V of the convention for the renewal Of
the modus svivendi, the decision of the
arbitrator will compel the United States
to make compensation to Great Britain,
for the use of her subjects, for abstain
ing from the capture of seals in Boring
sea during the tendency of the arbitra-
ton. This article deals only with dam
ages for the short period during which
the arbitration proceedings were being
conducted and does not touch the ques-
ton of damages prior to that time.
Questions of fact were submitted to the
tribunal and the arbitrators have handed
down a special finding on them with
reference to the seizure of British vessels
in Boring sea in 1887 and 1889. Further
information is awaited as to the nature
of this finding, which will probably afford
clue to the measure Of damages likely
to be assessed against the United States.
Senator Butler, of the senate commit
tee on foreign relations, said: THE
award gave even more than we eX-
pected.
Il never believed" said the senator
that the contention of the United States
that the Boring sea was a closed sea-
could be maintained. The sea was too
large a body of water for such a claim
10 be exercised over, and, necessarily,
the court having decided against us on
that point, the others Incorporated under
the first four sections of Art. VI, of the
treaty, fell with it, The chief thing i'm
which were interested was the pre-
vention of that kind of sealing which is
surely destroying the seal life, and if
England intends to join with us in the
preservation of the seals and establishes
a closed season between certain dates
in both the Northern Pacific and the
Boring sea. we have achieved a victory
and gained the material point"
II am disappointed about this de-
cision," said Senator Frye, for believed
the court would hold that we had
property right in the seals. 1t raises a
very serious question as to the liability
for past action, which am not now pre-
pared to discuss. OF course, so far as
the decision goes in the direction of pro-
tecting the seals, l am gratifed. though
1 do not think it goes far enough.
don't think pelagic sealing should be
permitted at all. Looking at the whole
subject, / am inclined to think that the
sealeries of Alaska are about destroyed
already"
Senator Sherman said: "I think the
adjustment of the close season and the
protection of the islands for sixty miles
and the extension OF measures for the
prevention of pelagic sealing to the
Northern Pacific as well as the Boring
sea are very acceptable. I do not wish
to say anything about the decision as
to the five points until 1 have read the
full award"

pany and Electric Company Re
suit I'm "a Very Warm Riot I'm Massa-
chusetts Town-Many Persons In
jured.

NORTH ABINGDON, Mass, Aug. 16.-
There was jolly row here today and
some blood and several arrests. The
selectmen this morning ordered officials
of the New York. New Haven & Hart
ford to take up a blind track which
they had laid during a fight with an
electric road. If they did not comply
the town would take it up. The officials
of the electric road and their counsel
went to Boston to apply for an injunc-
ton to restrain the railroad people from
preventing the laying of rails across
their road. The gangs of men Of the
railroad were kept a short distance
away ready to block any move of the
electric people. Superintendent Sanborn,
who had charge of the forces, spent his
time mainly in the telegraph Office in
communication with the higher officials
at Boston.
Shortly after 1 o'clock Superintendent
SanbOrn told Roadmaster Bryant to
carry out his orders. Bryant called up
his men, who were chiefly Italians, and
they came with shovels pickaxes, etc,
and crowbars. In a moment it was seen
that the orders were to tear UP the
electric road tracks. AS the railroad
men began work three officers reached
each for man to arrest. This the men
resented and the Italians rushed in force
upon the officers and citizens.
Shovels and pickaxes were used fierce
ly and the Italians drove the citizens
down NOrth-ave. The fire alarm was
Tung and the hose company turned
out, and, putting two streams on, drove
the Italians back. They could not stand
water.
AS they got to the crossing they pulled
the gate-tender's house down and into
the middle of the road using il as a
barricade. The fire boys made it SO
lively that they rallied and charged, and
rocks flew in every direction. Two
thousand dollars worth of plate glass
was smashed in few minutes, and not
only those engaged in the battle, but
spectators were injured. Among those
knocked down was Railroad Superin-
tendent Sanborn. In the fight Inspector
Bailey and Roadmaster Bryant We're
arrested and locked up.
The Italians got the best of the I'M
pieces and broke the noZZles. A truce
was then declared, Superintendent San
born calling off his men, although they
stayed around for new orders. The
selectmen sent to Boston to Chief Wade
and he and a large posse of state police
officers came out on a special train.
There also came the president of the
electric road with the injunction, which
was served on Superintendent Sanborn,
who was locked up after his men had
been sent away.
About twenty persons were more or
less injured in the fight, two receiving
bullet wounds, but no fatal results are
feared.

A FIENDIsH DEED.
Three Boys Blown to Atoms by a
Practical Joker.

BEAVER FALLS, Pa, Aug. ia
fiendish act was perpetrated yesterday
near HomewoOd, which resulted in the
death Of three boys today.
Frank Graham Of Homewood, seven
teen years old, knew that three other
boys were hunting groundhogs about a
mile below the village. He got a can Of
blasting powder. attached a fuse, placed
it in a little pit of rocks and waited un-
til the young hunters neared the spot.
Then he lit the fuse and ran away.
Burgess Reed, sixteen years old, and
James Garner, aged seventeen, APP
preached the spot entirely unconscious
of the danger. The can exploded, all
being manned and burned terribly. Car
ner was knocked insensible and his
clothing was burned off. One of the
Reed boys was also disabled. The other
Reed boy was able to crawl away and
give an alarm. Doctors did everything
possible for the young sufferers, but UNI
availingly, as they died this morning.
Graham made his escape and is still at
large.

He is believed to have misappropriated

club was 1925 a month with board and

Pouring a Gun of Coffee.

''Do you see how that cream has cur
died in your coffee?' said a well-known
caterer yesterday You'd attribute that
to it's being sour. That's not the cause.
The trouble is that very few people
know how to pour a cup of coffee. 1t is
almost the universal notion that the
cream and sugar should be put in first
and then the hot coffee poured upon
this. This is a mistake, as it will al
most invariably curdle the cream. You
should first put the cream in the cup.

BOYDELL DEAD.
The We'll Known Trotter Dies

word Received by .Horsemen Here Yesterday With General
 Regret.

Word was received yesterday that nBoydell" the well known trotter osned by w. M. Billups, died on Mon 5y at Omaha. No particulars are krown concerning the cause of his 3,sth. Messrs. Porter and Billups had inst reached Omaha, having left Ph9- nix early last week.
 The news of Boydell's death was heard with regret by the horsemen oi arnix and by those interested in good horses.
 There is many man in this com p1ni!y who a large majority of horse- usn believe could have been more con r,pienily spared. He was no doubt ,be best horse ever brought to the terri n,y. He was of Palo Alto stock and though without a record his perform ,,ces on the track here had led horse nan to believe that he had in him the making of a valuable animal. For the past year a strong and con pDQed effort has been made to awaken
 n interest in the valley in speedy s0,.es and racing matters generally. The horses of Messrs Biilups and Por'
 gr were regarded as nucleus of an ,yregstion of horses to be built mp when would attract the attention ot ae country. The death of Boydel therefore removing probably the most u.uabIe of the animals is looked upon ga loss not only to his owner but to the entire community.
