Nye and Burbank

Lighthouse theatre was crowded to
its utmost capacity last night to enjoy
the entertainment given by the famous
Nye-Burbank combination. Judging
from the constant flow of laughter and
merry expressions on the faces of those
who were present, no one went away
disappointed. Nye's readings were
characteristic of his newspaper sketches
and abounded with keen wit. Bur
banks selections were splendidly rem
dered and took well with the audience,
the honors being about equal between
the two gentlemen. AT least $50 people
from Fairhaven attended the entertain
ment.

CHINESE EXCLUSION ACT.
IT CREATES A PROFOUND SENSATION
IN WARRINGTON CITY.
The Administration Was Not Contemplating
an Affirmative Decision and Apparently
sympathizes With the Cinnamon.
China Will Probably Retaliate.

WASHINGTON, May 16. - The
Chinese question occupied the entire
attention of the cabiAet today. Be-
fore the meeting Chief Justice Fuller,
who dissented from the decision, had
a brief talk with the president and
subsequently, with Secretary Gresh.
am. 1t was estimated that it would
cost more than $4,000, 900 to deport the
Chinese. Under the circumstances it
was understood nothing could be done,
and it is said that there is little, if
any, probability of the government
making any immediate effort to put
the law into effect. One of the cabl-
net made the broad assertion after
the session that the law was nothing
short of political scheme enacted for
political effect, (he said in fact some-
thing about demagogueryl and it is
intimated that there had been general
hope among his associates that the
court would hold it unconstitutional.
1t is assumed that in the ordinary
course of diplomatic usage, a copy
of the decision will be transmitted
to the Chinese minister to be for.
warded to his government. This will
necessarily involve considerable delay
and congress will probably be again
in session before reply can be made
to the communication. 1t is evident
the administration was surprised by
the decision and the situation is very
perpleXing.
The effects of the decision are far.
reaching and involve, according to
the view of many diplomats aud
naval officers, severance of diplo-
matte and national relations with the
Chinese empire. They are firm in the
belief that the celestiais will retaliate.
This is an extreme view, but that it Is
not regarded as altogether improbable,
is evidenced by the fact that naval
officials are considering the question
in connection with the reorganization
of the American squadron in Chinese
waters. Secretary Carlisle received
many kilograms today asking for q
suspension of the operations of the law
for six months.
The best opionion obtained on the
subject in the treasury department is
that the law is explicit on this point,
having set the 5th of May as the last
day upon which registration could be
made, and consequently it is beyond
the power of the president to extend
the limit. The Chinse minister has
communicated with the state depart
ment relative to the enforcement Of
the law. At the legation it was
stated that there was absolutely moth.
ing to give out in regard to the matter
and would not be until the home gov
ernment was heard from.

THE DEATH PENALTY.
Ed Nichols, the Negro Rapist, to Expiate
Yis Crime on the Gallows.

Ed Nichols, the Negro Rapist, to Expiate
Ris Crime on the Gallows
Yesterday afternoon after having
been out about three hours the jury
which for the past few days has been
hearing the evidence against Ed
Nichols, the negro rapist, returned
their verdict, finding the defendant
guilty as charged in the indictment
and assessing his punishment at death
on the gallows.
The crime for which Nichols has
been called upon to answer was
most henious one, it being the oat-
raging of little 10-year-o Bohemian
girl with an almost unpronouncable
name. She was overtaken by the
brute in a lonely place near her
fathers home, where be accomplished
his foul purpose, painfully cutting
and lacerating the body of the poor
child.
The prosecution was conducted by
District Attorney Albert Burleson,
who made out an unusually strong
case, his closing argument for the
state being one of unusual force ana
vigor. The defendant under appoint
ment by the court was represented by
MessEs. Walton & Calhoun, who
made strong fight for their client.
Two days will be allowed for the tillng
of a motion for a new trial, which will
in all probability be asked for.

NEW YORK, May 16.-Chinamen
accept the decision of the supreme
court on the Geary law gloomly, but
expects that something will turn up
to prevent wholesale deportation. Lee
Wah, who was one of the agitators of
the Chinese Equal Rights league, and
who is an agent for the Pacific Mail
and Southern Pacific railroad, said
last night: 81 think the secretary of
the treasury, if he has the power,
should extend time for registration, as
a majority wish to comply with the
law. They have not done SO before

where they do business, continue to
honor their drafts and are not alarm
ed at the outcome. 1t is believed
here that the embarrassment of the
Guarantee and Loan company will
not affect the North Galveston COM
pany in the least, as all the work and
material in the new town has been
paid for and the company is out of
debt. 1t will, however, in all proba-
billy put stop to the contemplated
extension of the railway from North
Galveston to Houston.

Pallister's Body Found.

SING SING, May 16.-A body was
found in the Hudson river off Sing
Sing this morning and has been iden-
titled by State Detective Jackson and
Principal Keeper Connaughton OF the
prison as that of Pallister, the muir
derer of Policeman Kane. The body
was very much decomposed. A bunch
of keys found in his clothes were iden-
titled by Mr.. Connaughton as those
taken from the guards by Pallister
and Rochl at the time of their escape
from the death house of the prison
nearly month ago. The body was
found in the river by two fishermen
and brought to the Sing Sing dock
The coroner will hold an inquest this
morning. The body was taken out OF
the water and placed in the death
house here. A thorough investigation
was made and a bullet hole was found
under the left eye The supposltion
is that Rochl shot Pallister and then
committed suicide.

A WAR CLOUD.
In Naval Circles War With China Is
Deemed Probability


NEW YORK, May 16.-A Washing.
ton special to The Post says: The out
look for war with China is now re-
g rdei in naval circles as not
un1avorable. 1t is believed the
emperor will resent the conclusion
reac ed by the supreme court and
issue a decree forcing strict rules
against the entry of any more Amerl-
cans into China, and probably order
ing the removal of our missionaries
out of his territory under pain OF torci-
BILE edeportation. Meanwhile, there is
danger of instructions of Chinese
against white immigrants which the
imperial authorities are powerless to
check. These, taken together with
outbreaks which an attempt to enforce
the Geary law ON our west coast will
bring about, it is thought, will put
the two nations on such footings as to
make war inevitable. The decision is
q great blow to the Chinese legation,
where it had been hoped down to the
last moment that the act would be de-
clared unconstitutional.

COTTON CIRCULAR.
McElrOy & Gilbert on the Condition Of
the Market.

New ORLEANS, May 16.-McElroy
& Gilbert say:
Futures-Liverpool continues COM
paratively the strongest of the cotton
markets, Although spinners continue
TO buy simply from hand to mouth
and show no disposition to lay in a
surplus OF supplies, deliveries recover
ed the decline of 2 64 established at
the opening and closed firm at last
nights prices. News of further
financial complications in Australia
was tie principal cause of the sottness
at the opening, but this influence was
more than overcome by the news OF
another break in the Arkansas line OF
levees, within few miles of the two
previous breaks. The volume of
water poured upon the cotton
lands of northeastern Louisiana
oy the three crevasses, which
have occurred so far will make it i'm
possible for that section of our state to
make crop, and it Is only natural
that this additional untavorable news
caused some covering by shorts and
fresh buying by longs. At the closing
our market is six points higher than
yesterday. While the market seems
ripe for recovery, the financial uneasi-
ness hangs over cotton like pail and
it would seem impossible to maintain
any material advance until some re-
lief comes to the money market. The
decline of 1.2 penny in silver and the
expected shipment of $1,5OO, 600 in
gold tomorrow are not features likely
to promote confidence in cotton or
other PRODUCTS.
Receipts at all ports today are ZOO
against $500. New Orleans expects
tomorrow 900, against 200 here and
2600 at all ports last year.

neither speaker succeeded in arousing
high degree of enthusiasm. 1t was
decided to hold a procession next
Saturday night and the presidents of
all of the labor unions were named as
