Special to the RECoRD-UNIoN.
New YORK, June 2S.-James Wilson
of this city was recently witness before
the Custom-house Investigating Com
mittee, but feeling that the evidence he
would give was not comprehensive
enough, has written letter to Chairman
Fairchild of the Investigating Commit
tee, in which he says in part:
II do not feel that the proceedings of
the committee are seriously intended to
elicit all the facts regarding importations
and return of Californian Genital bags.
Tho fault is not in the appraiser, but in
the law of Congress in the Mckinley Act.
[ called upon the appraiser to distinguish
between bags of foreign and domestic
manufacture. but it is impossible, how
ever preponderating the balance of evi-
dence may be, to say absolutely where an
individual bag is made, and it seems to
me, under Ithe circumstances, the ap-
praiser cannot justly impose a penalty of
duty, but is bound to give the bag the
benefit of the doubt.
The talk that the Government has been
defrauded Of many thousands or millions
tigation was instituted by Collins, bag
maker, whose brief you evidently ac-
copied in whole. Now you do not appear
to have asked Collins how it is he has en-
gagged so long in importing these bags
himself without paying duty on them, or
why he was required to pay duty on the
importation of 100000 bags shipped him
as California bags, but which had never
been in California at all, and most of
which were branded with the name of
Arnold, Brauss ~ Co., firm of grain
shippers in Buenos Ayres, South Amer
lea.
81 have actual knowledge that for tine
last year Collins has been busy collect
ing evidence to prove the foreign origin
of most of these returned bags, and yet
within that time l have sold him many
thousand of these bags, all of which he
entered tree, and in regard to which he
has taken oath at the Custom-hOuse at
New York, that to the best of his knowl-
edge and belief they were bags of Ameri-
can manufacture. You evidently adopt
bis (Collins') theory with unquestioning
faith, and treat with slight consideration
and scant courtesy those half-dozen other
witnesses, most Of whom are traders of
much greater knowledge and wider ex-
perience than he, and have apparently
condemned as ignorant and inefficient
the New York examiner, and by impli-
cation, ali other examiners and apprais-
ers, for these central bags are passed free
through every Custom-house from Bos-
ton to New Orleans"

CHINESE QUESTION.
POSITION OF THE PRESIDENT ON
THE EXCLUSION ACT.
He Has No Intention of Overriding 1t
With a New Treaty-Portland's
Collector Removed.

Special to the RECoRD-UNIoN.
WASHINGTON, June 2S.-The sudden
revival of interest in Chinese affairs is to
be explained more as an accident than
anything else. No change has been made
in the policy of the Government with re-
spect to enforcing the Geary law, and
the President has neither said nor done
anything to warrant the assumption that
he proposes to nullify the law by over
riding it with new treaty
An inquiry at the Treasury Department
disclosed the fact that about $4,000 re-
mains for the enforcement Of the several
Chinese Acts. In July the new appro-
priation of $4,000 becomes available, so
that the aggregate fund available for the
carrying out of the Exclusion Act, in
Guiding the Geary law, will be S65, 900.
As announced by Secretary Carlisle. the
policy of the Administration will be, in
view of the lack of funds, to rid the
country of all Chinese who have entered
unlawfully in violation of previously ex-
isting laws, before endeavoring to send
out Chinese who came in lawfully. but
are under the ban of the Geary law be-
cause they failed to comply with its re-
quirements of registration, etc
PoRTLAND's COLLECTOR REMOVED.
WASHINGTON, June 2S.-The President
this morning summarily removed Lotan.
Collector of Customs at Portland, Or.
This unusual action was taken on the re-
ceipt this morning of a telegram from
special agents of the Treasury Depart
ment, who have been engaged for some
time in investigating fraudulent practices
prevailing in the Puget Sound and Port
land districts. The telegram stated that
they had information of the intended
landing at Portland of large number of
Chinese coolies. Lotan's deputy was
placed in charge, and will continue to act
until Black, the new Collector, qualities.
On June 18th Collector Lotan, in disre-
gard of official instructions from the
Treasury Department, landed from the
steamer Danube about $50 Chinese claim
ing to be merchants, but who were de-
scrihed in an official report to the depart-
ment as a scaly and uncouth-appearinp
lot OF coolies. More coolies are now ex-
pected on board the steamer Haytien Re-
public, en- route to Portland, and it is be-
lieved by the Treasury Department that
if Collector Lotan had been left in office
he would land them, without regard to
law, as was done in the case of the Dan
ube.
AS far back as March Sd Collector Lotan
was instructed by Assistant Secretary
Spaulding as follows: 1T is ascertained
that many Chinese enter the United States
upon fraudulent papers certifying them
to be returning merchants. You viii
hereafter disregard such papers, and re-
fuse entry until it is proven to your salts
faction that the persons presenting them
have the right to land"
Since that time many hundred Chinese
have been landed at Portland upon bogus
affidayits and certificates,

WORLDS FAIR.

Special Attractions Not Necessary to
Bring Out the Populace.
CHICAGO, June 2S.-From the size of
the crowd attending the Worlds Fair TO-
day it is evident that special features are
not necessary to bring the populace to
Jackson Park. There was no prominent
attraction on the programme, and yet no
less than l25,000 people passed through
the turnstiles. 1t was a beautiful day,
and every ybody seemed to enjoy it.
Corrected figures on Yesterdays at
tendance show 1925 admissions, of
which l3l, l32 were paid. The correspond
ing Cay at the Centennial the total attend
ance was 26,lS4. Figures compiled to-
night show the total attendance of the
day rs, ,204, of which 1000 were paid.
Unless the unexpected should happen
there will be a dairy exhibit at the
Worlds Fair in July. This announce
ment, which was issued by Chief
Buchanan Of the Department of Arri-
culture to-day, was received with thanks
giving by some 800 exhibitors, who for
the past two months have been COM
PEELED to submit to exasperating DELAYS
and financial losses by failure of the ex-
position company to furnish facilities
for displaying their products. The chief
cause OF complaint was the absence ofanv
kind of refrigerator service, and the
promise is now made that this matter
will be rectified at once.
Great arrangements have been made
for the celebration of the Fourth of July
at the Worlds Fair. Four troops of
trained singers, 500 each, will be sta
toned at suitable points of the grand
court, and viii lead in singing patriotic
songs, in which it is expected $50 00O
voices of those on the grounds will Join.
The great volume of sound will be pune
tuated by cannon salutes. First the ring
ing of the new Liberty Bell and the ring
ing of every bell in the city. Every
person on the grounds will carry an

CrImInally Assaulted q Woman Near
Los GatOs.
SAN JOSE, June 2S.-Constable Reyn-
olds arrived here at 1880 tonight, having
in custody a man named Hanson, who
made a felonious assault on Mrs. May
Marriott at tunnel No. l, near Los Gatos,
about $50 o'clock. The woman went to
meet friends expected from San Fran
cisco. They did not come, and she started
10 walk along the track to her place, five
miles up the canyon. Hanson met her,
turned and followed, and as she passed
out of the tunnel he grabbed and choked
her and accomplished his purpose. The
screams of the woman attracted two men
passing in buggy along the road. They
arrived upon the scene as the man ran
away. Mrs. Marriott was taken to Los
Gatos, and gave a description of her as
sailant. He was shortly after arrested,
brought before her and identified AS
the excitement ran high the Constable
hustled him off to San Jose.

SHIPMENTS OF WHEAT.
Enormous Export From the Port OF
New York.

New Ork.
NEW YORK, June %. A morning
paper says: The enormous export of
wheat from this port during the last few
weeks has created demand for canal
boats which far more than equals the
supply. There are 800 boats here un-
loading and loading. The Captains are
so busy they will not wait for return car
goes unless they get them within twenty
four hours. There are 100000 bushels
of wheat stored in New York, Brooklyn
and Jersey City, and in the course of
transportation 100000 bushels on the
lakes and 100000 bushels in the Erie
Canal and Hudson River on the way to
Europe to be turned into gold. In addi-
ton to over 100000 bushels Of wheat,
including -four, cleared from Atlantic
and Pacific points during the four weeks
ended June 23d, engagements for freight
room have already been made at Atlantic
ports alone for lO,000 900 bushels that will
90 abroad within the next thirty TO forty
five days. This is an aggregate of "A ,000.-
600 bushels of wheat shipped since May
9th, to be exported within a few weeks,
and is equivalent to draft upon the
banks of Europe for over SIG. 100000, even
at the phenomenal low prices at which
the cereal is now selling.

IRISH HOME RULE BILL.
Gladstone Preparing to Force Speed
Action on the Measure.

Gladstone Preparing to Force Speedy
Action on the Measure.
LONDON, June 28.-Giadstone made an
announcement in the Commons to-day.
which caused much JOY among the Irish
members and those Of the Radical party
who believe the time has come for throw
ing out the many amendments to the
home rule bill offered by the opposition
for the purpose of delaying the passage of
the measure. Gladstone stated that to-
morrow he would move the adoption OF
resolution calling upon the House to ex-
pedite the passage of the bill.
The announcement was greeted with
cheers by the supporters OF the Govern
ment.
Gladstone added that the form of the
resolution was nearly prepared, and he
hoped to communicate it to the House be-
fore the session closed.
In reply to a question asked by A. J.
Balfour. leader Of the opposition. Glad
stone said the resolution he proposed to
move would be on the same principle as
the resolution offered in 1887, though it
would contain some important modifica-
tions. Gladstone was again cheered.
After Gladstone had announced the
forthcoming resolution, a. J.. Balfour,
the leader of the opposition, asked that
the terms of the resolution be commune
Gated to the opposition leaders before
they were publicly stated in the House.
With subtle irony, Gladstone informed
Baltour that the resolution was based on
proposal made by the Conservatives.
by which the Grimes Act was rushed
through Parliament in 1857. This reply
evoked hearty laughter and a hurricane
of cheers from the Irish benches. Bal
four was not at all put out by the an
swer, and as Gladstone resumed his seat
Balfour smilingly bowed toward him.
When the Prime Minister was reseated
his elated supporters rushed into the lob
bies, where they discussed the Govern
menps plan. The Irish members were
jubilant. The concensus Of opinion was
that some such action could not with
safety be long delayed. If this action had
not been taken, it would not have been
long before thore would have been open
revolt instead of mutterings in the Irish
ranks against the Government

FRESNO, June 2S.-The days sensation
in the trial of Richard S. Heath, charged
with the murder of McWhirter, came at
o'clock. Stilwell, reporter, was be-
ing cross-examined by w. w. Foote, who
was asking what moneys the Blasingames
had paid him as detective. NJ. NJ. Foote
called w. w. Foote'S attention to Lee
Blasingame, claiming that he was nodding
to witness to coach him. Lloyd Moultrie
corroborated him. Blasingame told NJ.
M. Foote he lied, when the latter started
for him, and they were stopped by officers
and w. w. Foote. Some of the parties
made play to draw pistols, when At
torney Walser asked that all parties be
dlsarmed. After some wrangling Blasin-
game was fined, and all parties were or
dered to appear in court hereafter gun
less. The excitement during the episode
was intense
Henry ID. Bigelow testified that he saw
Heath in December last at San Francisco.
Heath said if McWhirter's murder were
investigated carefully it would be found
that McWhirter had been killed by a
young business man of Fresno. Heath
said that the young man had discovered
some months after his marriage that his
wife was about to lave child very pre-
maturely, and by threats of exposure she
had been induced to confess that Nc
Whittier was the cause, and that her hus-
band had for that reason killed Nc
Whittier. Heath said he would give Still
well letters of introduction to persons in
Fresno cognizant of the facts.
He stated also that on certain night
the young man and McWhirter had been
seen passing down the road near the
house of man named Morrow; that
Morrow and his wife heard the Young
man and McWhirter wrangling. Heath
said there were other parties who knew
more about it. Heath gave a letter Of in
PRODUCTION to Parsons and others at
Fresno, and said it would be nice story
to write up. Heath said he was friend
of McWhirter, and was sorry for his
death.

MILLS CLOSING DOWN.
Owing to the Present Condition of til
Cotton Trade

Owing to the Present Condition of the
Cotton Trade.
PHILADELPHIA, June 2S. The depress-
ing effect on the present condition of the
cotton trade is making itself felt in
Frankford and Kensington. The man
ayers of mills are trying to avert the sus-
pension Of the entire plant by laying of
the employees of one room at one time.
hoping that trade will take a boom, but
two large plants in Frankford have
finally decided to shut down one month
at least, and the others in Kensington, it
is rumored, will soon follow example.
The mills first to succumb are the CAL
cutta and Berkshire, both operated by the
Berkshire Mill Company and employing
600 hands.
