be declared null and void. 1t has
been estimated that it will cost the
United States Government at least
S6,0O0,000 to deport the Chinese
who have not complied with the
law. Only about $4,000 is availa-
bic for this purpose, and, under the
circumstances, it is understood that
nothing can be done at present, and
as to the expense Of enforcing the
law it is not by any means sure that
if Congress was in extraordinary
session the amount Of money nee
essary for deportation would be
appropriated.
The Chinese question occupied
the entire attention of the Cabinet
at its meeting Tuesday. A promi-
nent member of the Cabinet, who is
regarded at Washington as a man
Of great force and strength Of char.
acter, made the assertion after the
meeting of the Cabinet was over
that the law was nothing short of {
political scheme enacted for politi
cal effect, and he intimated tina
there had been general desire
among his associates that the cour
would have held the Geary act tx
be unconstitutional. 1t is eviden
that the administration was sur
prised by the decision, and that thu
situation is very perplexing.
The effect Of the decision is far
reaching and involves the severanc,
of our diplomatic and commercial
relations with the Chinese Empire
and it may lead to serious compli
cations, as it is probable that Chin
will adopt a policy Of retaliation
and expel all Americans from he
. territory.

statement that corn and hog raising
will be profitable business in this

THE EXCLUSION LAW.

The decision Monday Of the SUI
preme courtaffirming the validity of
the Geary Chinese exclusion act was
somewhat Of a surprise, and it may
embarrass the administration. The
Geary exclusion act provides that
every Chinaman remaining is this
country after May 5, 1893, shall
have certificate of registration
showing his legal right to remain
here. The supreme court was ask
ed to declare the act unconstitu-
tional as it involved deprivation
of liberty without due process of
law and the infection of cruel and
unusual punishment, but the court
holds that these objections are not
good, and that the Chinaman must
go. There are now about 100000
of these people in this country, and
comparatively few of them have
complied with the provisions of the
law, having been assured by theil
friends and advisers that it would

committee of the Reform club Of
New York, which is composed Of
the same kind of Democrats as Mr..
CLEVELAND, and which began work
Immediately after the election of
Mr.. CLEVELAND to prepare a draft
of tariff bill as substitute for the
Mckinley bill, is said to be the first
tariff bill ever framed entirely in
the interest Of the people and with
out dictation from manufacturers
and those with "vested rights
The makers Of it are all acknowl-
edged to be eminent scholars, and
several of them as philanthropists.
They are all recognized as authori-
ties on the question Of tariff, and,
with due consideration for past and
present conditions, they have made
bill which can not be fully appre-
ciated at once, hence it has been
published six months in advance of
the meeting Of Congress in order
that proper time may be had for
general discussion. 1t is under
stood that speakers will also be sent
out to discuss the merits of the bill,
and perhaps to aid in securing pc
titions to Congress in favor of this
or similar measure.
This report Of the committee is
merely the suggestions Of men who
have made lifetime study Of the
subject, and is not assumed by them
to be the conclusive word on the
question when tariff bill is franz
ed by Congress, but is part Of a va
riety Of information sought with a
view to guidance. The gentlemen
composing the committee have, for
the benefit Of the consumers, made
their contribution to the current
discussion of vital subject one
in which the people demand reform.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.-The diff
culties in the way of securing com
promise on the repeal bill becomes
more and more apparent every day,
because of the differences which exist
among Democrats. These differences
were manifest from the beginning on
the question of issuing bonds. Some
of the especial companions of the ad-
ministration insist that if silver is to
be coined to the extent of $500, 900, 900
as proposed, in order to preserve the
parity of gold and silver it will be
absolutely necessary to procure a
greater supply of gold. This position
is combated by the majority of the
silver Democrats, and many announce
their unalterable opposition.

Cleveland on the compromise terms,
but with no satisfactory result, says
a morning paper. The president is
fully conscious that the attitude he
has assumed is heartily Endorsed by
all the business interests of the east.
Il is understood that the reply he has
authorized Mr.. Carlisle to give to the
advocates of compromise is that he
will listen to no compromise involving
the further purchase of silver until
the supreme effort has been made by
the friends of unconditional repeal
to avail themselves of their conceded
strength as a majority of the senate
and force a vote. If the effort fails
then he may listen to a compromise
term as a lesser of the two evils. The
silver senators assert that they are
certain of support at the critical mo-
ment, and Senator Voorhees, failure
Saturday to secure sufficient aid from
his own side to put down filibustering
by forcing them into continuous ses-
sions from noon until midnight ex-
plains their otherwise inexphcable at
titude of defiance.
