Portland, Or, Special, May e.-Gov.
Fennoyer, referring to the failure of
Chinese to register, says: "The refusal
is most undoubtedly the result of col
fusion between the president and the
Chinese minister. If Cleveland had in
sisted that the law must be enforced
there would hav. been no failure to regis
ter. 1t is most humiliating that the citi-
zens of Oregon first learned of this un-
holy compact from an hieroglyphic
proclamation of the Six companies posted
en- the walls of Chinese wash house in
Astoria. Cleveland has thus become re-
sponsible for whatever trouble may arise.
If he had declared his purpose to enforce
the law there would have been com
plete registration. The Chinese minister
has apparently dictated the policy Of the
administration, and he was not probably
aware of the fact that articles of i'm
parchment have been preferred against q
president for a less offnse than Cleve-
Nnd's refusal to strictly enforce the ex-
clusiOn law"

New York, May Sat the office of
Howe & Hummell all was gloom. Mr..
Hummell said that up to noon no official
notice of the decision of Gov. Flower had
been received at the Office. He, however.
took it for granted that the report from
Albany to the effect that Gov. Flower
had announced his decision not to inter-
fere in the case of Harris was reliable.
MIR. Hummcll says that Mrs Harris,
who is at Mortified, Mass, would be
notified ut once. Harris will be notified
of the decision when the firm receives
official information Of the governors ac-
ton. It was said at the lawyers office
that nothing more could now be done for
Harris, and that he must die as pre-
scrlDed by the law some time during
next week. Abe Hummell, Lawyer
Howe's partner, received the first news
OF the governors decision from a re-
porter. He said an application would be
made for d respite Of about thirty days.
