1 BLINDeoLD JUSTICE GAME

Portland, Or, July 20.-Sixty-three
Chinese are metaphorlcally starving to
death on board a steamer here with
plenty to eat at their disposal This
paradoxical state Of affairs was
brought about in this way: After a
consultation between the officials Of the
state and treasury departments and the
department of Justice, it has been Of
ficially decided that either the owners
of the Haytian Republic must care for
contraband passengers (and this they
will not do), or the Chinese must starve
to death in the midst Of plenty. pend
ing disposition of the libel In the
courts. This Is an official decision, but
It has also been determined that the
Chinese shall be fed three unofficial
meals day. While the United States
government Is feeding the Chinese 1t
shuts It's eyes to the fact; and in order
to be thoroughly consistent the govern
ment maintains the Chinamen must go
without food until the court settles the
matter Of the libel In addition to
feeding the Chinese unoficially, Col
Iector Black is looking after their san
itary condition.

WALL STREET ToN1Na DOWN.


New York. July 20.-The nervous feel
ing in Wall street is not so noticeable
today, which Is said to be due largely
to the uncertainty regarding the iden-
tity of some corporation on behalf of
which an appropriation was made yes
terday in the United States circuit
court for the appointment. of receiver
without disclosing the name Of the ap-
plicant. BY the direction Of Judge
Brown, the papers, in accordance with
the request of counsel on both sides,
were kept private, so the name of the
embarrassed company would not be di-
vulged. This action Of Judge Brown,
was vigorously condemned in financial
circles today. 1t resulted inthe names
of several prominent companies being
suggested as the one concerned, and
in at least one case, o decline IN the
price of the stock resulted therefrom.
The financial situation in Philadelphia
is said by New York bankers today to
be worse Applications have been re-
ceived from there for cash, in order
that this weeks pay rolls might be
supplied.
