A curious phenomenon is happening IN
Italy. So excessively is the government
of that country in debt that its obliga-
tions are not quite at par in the estima-
ffon of financiers. So it's securities sell
at a discount of ten per cent in gold;
hut at their face value in silver. The
effect of this upon the circulating medi-
UNI is as follows: A million dollars in
paper, for instance, is converted into
Italian silver coins, which are shipped to
France OF Belgium, where, under the
regulations of the Latin Union, they are
exchangable for gold at par. The gold
is then converted into italian paper,
with which italian silver coins are pur-
chased again with view to export.
The result of these transactions is that
Italy is SO nearly drained of silver that
copper coins have come to be employed
almost exclusively for purposes of small
change Usually the cheaper coin
drives out the dearer; but here is an I'M
usual combination, brought about by the
currency arrangement of the Latin Union
and the fiscal condition of Italy, where
by the cheaper coin leaves the country.

been precisely what we have witnessed.
On the silver question he said: 'This
question ought never to be hampered by
partisan politics.
1T requires for proper adjustment the
best thoughts of the best meD OF all politi-
cal parties. The great mass of our people,
outside of those directly benefited by the
change. look upon the act of 1873 demone-
tizing silver as a colossal national crime
and are anxious to remedy the wrong In
any way it can be done without commit
ting panic and without derriment to the
credit of the nation. That a solution of
this difficult problem. which will restore to
the country the free coinage of silver, will
be discovered I have no doubt. Neither
do question that We will be most likely
to reach a correct solution, one that will
do justice to all classes and reflect credit
on our common country. If we are able to
keep 1t out Of the bitter partisan politics

STARVATION AT SEA.
DeplorabIe Predicament of q Coast

ASTORIA. Sept 9.-The steamer Harri-
son. which arrived in to-day from coast
ports. reports speaking the schooner Mary
Bidwell. 81 days from San Francisco. oD
September ten miles south of the Siuslaw
River. Her union was reversed and on
boarding her Captain Grim of the Harrison
found that her crew of six men were weak
from starvation and could hardly crawl
about the decks. They had been beating
about off the mouth of the river for ten
days. unable to distinguish anything be-
cause of the fog and having lost all bear
ings.
The provisions gave out on the night of
September 3. Captain Grim was unfortu-
nately unable to do much for them. being
very uncertain himself oD account of the
fog when he would reach land and having
forty passengers aboard. However, he
provided the starving men with bacon,
tea, sugar, -four and pork and directed the
captain to lie in close to shore. where the
tugs could see his schooner. 1t is not yet
known whether the vessel has reached

SHORT CROPS.
There Is Marked Decline in Nearly
All of the States.


WASHINGTON. Sept. 9.-The September
report of the Statlstician DEPARTMENT of
Agriculture shows decline in the cundi-
tion Of corn 10 767 from 81 for the mon tn
OF August and 932 for July. The change
is marked in nearly all the corn States.
In comparison with the September reports
the past ten years only three years were
lower-70.1 in 1890, 1913 in 1887, and 1866 in
1886. The decline was caused by the pre-
vailing drought.
The condition OF wheat. both winter and
spring, where harvested. is IA against S5.3
in 1892. The general average is the lowest
since 1885, when 1t was 73.
The condition Of fruit has still further
declined, and New Jersey, Delaware,
MARYLAND and Virginia, the only States
excepting the Pacific that showed good
prospects. have their percentage lowered
greatly by the unprecedented storm of the
18th and Goth of August. California main
tains the percentage of August, and Ore
gon and Washington show slight losses.

that case did so at the personal request
Of Judge Ross. This time it is different
Marshal Gard has these men in his charge
and he must deport them himself. l shall
give him no assistance whatever, and
guess he'll want none. A steamer sails
for China on Tuesday, and all Gard will
have TO do will be to put them on board
and pay their passage. 1t will be an ex-
pensive job. too.
The minimum steersge fare from here
to Hong-kong used 10 be $50. but little
while ago / came to an arrangement with
the steamship companies whereby they
agreed to take these fellows for S35
apiece. Even that makes an expense, you
see. IL you calculate railway fares. ETC.
And suppOsing That we have SEQ Chinese
in this city ready for deportation. that
would cost S17.500. And we're hard up
just now.
'As to the question of these men actu-
ally being deported. l can only say that GO
they will unless they succeed in getting a
writ OF habeas corpus from Judge Me-
Kenna's court on Monday. l suppose they
will make some effort in that direction
Anyway it won't affect me one way or the
other. It's not my business. and intend
to tell Gard So" Which MIR. Wise promptly
did on arriving at the hotel.
1t is not probable, however, that the men
will be deported without struggle. The
attorney for the Chinese, r. E. Ling, ac-
companied the Celestials from Los An
gees. evidently prepared to make a strong
fight. Whether the Chinese Consul
General in this city will take any action in
the matter remains TO be seen.
Meanwhile the five prisoners are CON-
fortably ensconced in the County Jail.
They are imbued with the stoical calmness
of their race, and do not seem to care what
becomes Of them. They caused no trouble
on the journey from Los Angeles, and the
County Jail is undisturbed by their pres
ence,

some of the folks at Washington seem to
think. If the Chinese are sent out in large
lots they can be landed in China from this
port at a cost of not more than $50 head.
There are many tramp steamers and
sailing vessels that could readily be pressed
into the service at small cost, and there is
NO reason why the Government vessels at
this port could not be used TO deport
good many of the Chinese.
'The chief business of the anti-Chinese
convention next Thursday will be to
formulate memorial addressed to Con-
gress, calling upon that body to appropri-
ate the funds necessary for the enforce
ment Of the Geary law.
THE convention will likewise petition
the Board of Supervisors to make financial
provision for deporting Chinese who may
be apprehended under the provisions of
the State law. which is the same In word
Ing as the Geary act.
Before the winter is over there will be
about u, 900 workingmen out of employ
ment In this city. If the prediction of the
Federated Trades comes true. Now, IL we
could get rid OF some of our surplus Chi
nsse there would be that many more situ-
ations open for these white men.
That Is the stand the league takes In
the matter. and we mean to urge upon the
authorities the necessity of deporting the
Chinese ia order to give the white men
work"
The la sting success OF this Anti Chinese
League depends in no small degree upon
the two decisions now pending. the first in
the State Supreme Court. and the second
in the United States Circuit Court Prob
h1u N m nf hnt nf nipin ,.ill
he handed down Monday.
The decision looked for from the State
Supreme Court will decide whether Chi
nese may be deported under the State
enactment of 1891. which is about the same
az the Geary law. If this is decided In the
affirmative the Anti Chinese League will
at once begin to make arrests and call
upon the municipal authorities to appro-
pirate the needed funds for their deporta-
tion.
Should Judges McKenna and Morrow
decide to issue the warrant prayed for in
the case of Jim Lee the league will at
once, also. begin TO make arrests under the
Federal act
All in all, there promises 10 bs some very
interesting times here presently. The
Chinese themselves believe that the Cir
cult Court will decide against them, and
are not inclined to put much faith in the
Stats Supreme Court.
Yes; it looks rather black for John these
days, and John seems to realize it. He is
lying on his oars, just waiting and wait
ing, Tot daring TO hope that he will be per-
mitted to reside in this country much
longer unless he can induce President
Cleveland to extend the time and give him
another chance to register.
And the race feeling against John is
daily and hourly growing. On every hand
violence is deprecated, but every possible
legal force will now be resorted to to drive
the hated Mongolian back to the Orient.

INDIAN RESERVATIONS.
Large Tracts of Land About to Be
Opened Up.


WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.-The opening of
two more Indian reservations is under
consideration at the Interior Department..
The conditions of the opening. as at pres
ent contemplated, are practically the
same as those under which the Cherokee
strip will be opened. The opening of the
Kickapoo Reservation in Indian Territory
has already been decided upon and alIot-
ments are now being made. The Presi-
dent is expected to issue in short time q
proclamation opening this land to settle
ment.
The next reservation to be opened, 1t is
believed. is the Uncompahgre and Uintah,
10 Utah. Each Of these embraces about
100000 acres. In the latter valuable min
erals are abundant, while each comprises
rich farming land.
The Celville Reservation in Washlng gton
State will probably be opened 10 settle
ment early next year. Surveys are now
being made on the land. Allotments will
be made TO the Indians as soon as the sur
veys have been examined by the Land
Commissioner and approved by the Sscre-
tarv. This reservation contains about
100000 acres. about half the size of the
Cherokee outlet

Two Chinese Who Were Determined
to Get In.

NEW YORK. Sept. 9.-Lawyer B. c.
Chetwood appeared before Collector Kill
breth to-day in the case of two Chinese
who arrived here from Havana on Monday
on the Saratoga and were ordered returned
Oh Friday. The Chinese claimed to be
students and were going to Roboken
The Collector did not believe their con-
sular papers and certificates were genuine,
and the lawyer argued for rehearing in
an effort to have them landed.
The steamer was scheduled to sail for
Havana at ! o'clock and at 1920 COL
lector Kilbreth said he would not change
his former decision. and the Chinese could
not land. The lawyer had just thirty-fve
minutes to go to the United States Circuit
Court and get writ and serve it on the

company people. When the Saratoga
was about to sail her captain put

Five Chinese--Ah Sing. Chum Shong,

rived in this city early yesterday morning
from Los Angeles in charge of United
States Marshal George E. Gard. They are
to be deported at once.
This proceeding is 8 direct outcome of
the decision rendered by Judge Ross in Los
Angeles last week, when he decided at all
cost to support the provisions Of the Geary
law regarding registration. The history oil
the circumstances leading to the decision
has been already published in the columns
of THE CALL.
A large colony Of Chinese farmers In
Cahuenga has been causing an immense
amount Of trouble to the whites in that
locality. These latter app ealed In body

protection. and that official decidsd that

1t is becoming definite factor in the case,
and its voice and influence is bound to be
felt all over the State and probably even
as far as the national capital. Should the
decision Of the Circuit Court In the case OF
Jim Lee be against the Mongolian. fresh
impetus will be given this movement
though that is scarcely necessary to secure
its vigorous growth-and it may assume
such gigantic proportions that the Federal
administration will be bound to give re-
spectful ear to its pleadings.
One of the objects of this league is TO have
a stringent law enacted by Congress forbid
ding Japanese immigration. But the key
stone of the whole structure is the enforce
ment OF the Geary law, particularly that
portion OF it which relates to the deporta-
tion of unregistered Chinese laborers.
AS body the organization will vigor-
ously protest against sn extension of the
registration time and demand the immedi-
ate deportation of those not registered.
"We do not believe that il will be neces-
sary for the Government to deport all the
10000 or more Chinese laborers in and
about this city. though if that must be
done we insist that it shall be-" said
Lawyer George w. Fox, who is the at
torney for and president of the league.
IF the Government once begins to carry
the law into effect these Chinese laborers
will make haste TO get into British America
and into South and Central America to
escape being sent back to China, so that it
is not likely that even a half of all the
number of unregistered Chinese will have
to be deported.
"Still, whether this be the case or not,
we propose to see that the law is enforced.

RAlDED A VINEYARD.
Chinese Brutality Beaten by Mob in
Fresno County.

Fresno County.
FRESNO. Sept. "a mob Of six white
workmen raided r. Fl. Metzler's vineyard
last night and proceeded to remove the
Chinese grape-pickers there. They first
requested them to leave the bun nk-house,
but getting no response they shot several
holes through the house without effect
They next tore down the house aDd beat
the Chinese, badly wounding three of
them. They then marched them toward
Fresno as far as the Butler vineyard,
when two of the wounded Chinese fell ex-
hausted.
They were found lying in the woods
badly wounded and brought to this city,
but two of the others had disappeared
and cannot be found. 1t is impossible to
tell what has become of them, as the
wounded Chinese appear TOO frightened to
speak.
This afternoon it was reported that
Smiths vineyard had been raided and tive
Chinese killed. but later it was learned
this was but an exaggerated story Of the
Metzler affair.
The vineyard had formerly gone by the
name of Smith vineyard, and reports ema-
mating from different sources made it ap-
pear that two raids were made.
DIR. Leach is attending the wounded
Cinnamon. Two are badly used up. but
their injuries are not necessarily fatal.
There is no clew to the identity of any
of the mob as yet, but the Sheriff has gone
to the scene of the trouble with pesse.
