Four Bishops Intercede for Cinnamon.
WAsnrNGToN, March ia very dignified
delegation was introduced to the president
to-day by Bancroft Davis, recorder OF the
supreme court. II was composed of four
bishops Of the Episcopal church, Rt -Kevs
Paret, of Maryland; Potter, of New York;
Whitaker, OF Pennsylvania. and Hare, of
South Dakota. The object of the visit was
to discuss with Cleveland the Chinese OK
clusion law with relation to its bearing on
American interests in China. They said
strict enforcement of the law would be apt
to endanger the property and lives Of Amer
leans. They told the president they came
to him not as representatives OF the church
but as citizens and they had no suggestions
to make, but had simply como to confer
with him, and Cleveland said in reply that
ho had to enforce this as we'll as the other
laws OF the country.
The bishops admitted this, but suggested
that it might be possible to mitigate in
some degree the seventies of the laws
operations. The president told them he
would do what he could, and the interview
terminated.
