Warden Durston Immediately went to
notify Harris. As the warden approached
the cell, Harris arose from his cot In
low, solemn tones, yet with kindly in
tonation, the new warden, whom he had
never before seen, told the young wife
poisoner of the governor S refusal to in
terfere in his behalf.
Although the blow must have been
terrible one, Harris, according to the
warden, exhibited little emotion. A
life, liberty and all hope of future earthly
happiness might have been noticed mo-
mentarily, but instantly the Young man
nerved himself for a reply.
''Have | the privilege of seeing my
mother again, - he asked in falIering
tones.
Then came moment of silence that the
compassionate warden hesitated to break
in upon. "Certainly," replied the
austere yet kindly man.
'tThen please telegraph her to come and
see me as soon as possible, - he whis-
pered, and turned away desDairingly.
The warden said on his return to the
office: 81 have seen great men IN des-
perate positions, but never before have
seen a man so cool under like circum-
stances. ,;

NEW YORK, May 1.-The heavy rain
storm of last night and this morning has
passed off, but reports from surrounding
sections indicate that it left an unpleas-

eastern New York was drenched by the
heavy rain and all streams sre swollen
above the banks. The storm ragged
through Pennsylvania. The town OF
Shenandoah was greatly excited Dy the
discovery today of large cracks in the
dams situated about the Kebley Run
colliery. People were aroused during the
forenoon and Immediately commenced tc
move goods and fed to the hills. The
collieries along the creek ordered the men
out and hoisted the mules. The streams
throughout the Schuylkill coal region are
much sWOilens and ii is feared work will
have to cease at many mines. In the
Ehamokin region most of the collleries
ceased work this morning,

on the Boorish Reply to His Tele-
gram by the Governor of

WASHINGTON, May 4.-Tbe text OF the
order instructing United States officials
not to arrest Chinese who are not regis
tered was telegraphed from the treasury
department today as follows:
Treasury Department, Washington, D..
c., May 4.-The time within which Chi
nese laborers are required by act or May
5, 1892, to procure certificates OF residence
will expire on the 18th day Of the present
month, and it is evident from partial re-
ports made to this department. by col
lectors of internal revenue that In some
of the states and territories large num-
bers OF such persons have failed or refused
to make application IS required by the
law, but until complete reports are re-
ceiged the names and residences of those
who have registered and procured GER
tificates, and who are therefore exempt
from arrest, cannot be officially known,
collectors of internal revenue, collectors
OF customs and all customs officers for the
Uuited States therefore are instructed to
refrain from making arrests, under the
provisions of the sixth section OF the act
approved May 8, 1892, entitled san act to
prohibit the coming OF Chinese persons
into the United States,'' until further
orders and instructions from this depart
ment. (Signed) ]. G. Carlisle, secre-
tary-
The attorney general supplements this
circular by instructing United States dis
trict attorneys to defer proceedings under
the act of May 5, 1892, except under order
of court, until the necessary arrange
ments for the arrest, imprisonment and
deportation OF persons accused can be
perfected, of which due notice will be
given.

THE SIX COMPANIES.
They Forbid Their EsBrethren" to Regis
ter With White Officials.

They Forbid Their EsBrethren" to Regis
ter With White officials.
PORTLAND, Or, May 4.-Collector of In
ternal Revenue Weidler estimates that
there are fifteen thousand Chinese in his
district which comprises Oregon and
Washington and only one thousand of
this number have registered. A circular
has been posted IN all the principal cities,
stfrom the six Chinese companies to
our Chinese brethren forbidding them
to register with white officials or to have
anything to do with them. Collector OF
Customs Lotan is still at work examin-
ing certificates of Chinese who were on
the steamer from Victoria, B. G. Out OF
five hundred and fftyfve examined only
four have been landed. Three hundred
and eighteen were registered and the
others not examined.
Collector Logan of this port tonight
finished the examination of certificates OF
612 Chinese who arrived yesterday on the
steamer Danube from Victoria. Only four
have been allowed to land, and it is prob
able not moro than 100 out of the entire
number will be permitted to enter this
country. Collector Logan has discovered
1Ss certificates which bear unmistaka able
evidence of fraud, and in consequence
has teiegraphed the treasury department
at Washington for Instructions. Pending
instructions from the department no more
Chinese will be landed.
While the evidence at present is incom-
plete, it is said that a most gigantic COM
bination to violate the exclusion law has
been unearthed and sensational develop
ments are looked for. Many of the Chi
nese certificates are signed by reputable
citizens of this city, and in addition they
bear the seal of a notary public A num-
Der of the persons who acknowledge that
they signed the certificates deny that they
swore to the same before notary.
