CHINESE RESTRICTION.
President Cleveland VIII See That the Aot
Is Enforced.

A0t
Is Enforced.
WASHINGTON. May 1s.-Congressman
Caminetti, of California, had short con-
ference with the president yesterday and
left the White House feeling assured that
1t was the intention of the president to see
that tho Chinese restriction act was en-
forced. Mr.. Caminett denied that it would
take anything like the sum OF money that
has been mentioned to enforce the act, for
the reason that those Cinnamon entitled
to remain would have to secure their GER
tificates at their own expense and that
those against whom the law is really
aimed will be frightened out Of the coun-
try the moment an honest attempt is made
to enforce 1t.
He says the imposition Of the punish
ment prescribed-a year at hard labor
upon a few of the offenders viii be suffi-
cient to drive all the others out, and that
the United States will not be called upon
to deport the great mass of the people.
1t was understood that the president Is
to hold conference with the secretary of
the treasury for the purpose of dcvising
means for the enforcement of the law
The Chinese minister, accompanied by
his interpreter, Mr.. 'Ho, called on the sec
retary of state and had conference with
him relative to the law. Secretary
Gresham refuses to talk about the nature
OF the interview, further than to say that
1t was very pleasant, and that he considers
the Chinese minister man of great
ability.
Reports from forty of the sixty-three in
ternal revenue districts show that 3444
Chinese have registered. No reports have
yet been received from the Pacific coast
districts

and Four of Thorn Never Return-A

CLEVELAND, o., May 18. - Yesterday
afternoon Captain Stanley Flannigan and
Michael Leblonde. Of this city, were going
down the river in a row boat which they
used FOR peddling milk along the docks.
When near the mouth of the raging stream
one of Leblonde's oars broke and the two
men were left at the mercy of the waters.
They were quickly carried into the lake
by the rushing stream, and as it was seen
that their frail craft could not live in the
angry sea that was coming In from the
north, preparations were quickly begun for
their rescue by the life saving crew.
Seven men manned the lifeboat and they
pulled toward the east pier Of the break
water, toward which point the boat con-
tanning Flanagan and Leblonde had
drifted. When the life savers were all out
OF the mouth of the river an oar broke and
in an instant the cork-like vessel swung
about to toss upon the angry waves. The
men in the lifeboat were totally helpless,
and before assistance of any kind could be
rendered their boat was overturned and
all the men were thrown into the water.
Three Of them succeeded in catching hold
of the overturned lifeboat. where they held
on until they were rescued in terribly
exhausted condition.
-Four Of their fellow life savers were
tossed about SO mercilessly by the waves
that they were unable to swim back to the
lifeboat, and after vainly battling for
few moments with the elements they were
overcome, ard the battle of life had to be
given up.
The names of the heroes who lost their
lives in attempting to save others were:
Chester Simons, John johnson, Nicholas
Servas and Albert Currier
The life savers who were rescued were
George Wilson, Lawrence Distell and
George Loher.
Flanagan and Leblonde were drowned
before the lifeboat capsized.
