WASHINGTON, May 15.-The supreme
court, through Justice Gray, sustained
the decision of the New York courts in
favor of the constitutionality of the
Geary exclusion act. Justice Brewer
dissented, as did Chief Justice Fuller.
Will They Do Is9
Sunday report was current here
that, should the supreme court sustain
the Geary Chinese exclusion law, all OF
the Americans in China will be warned
to leave that country at once. This
would mean the total destruction of al
the American missions and the con
fiscation of property by the Chinese
authorities. Considerable quiet inter.
est is being taken at the state depart
ment over this report and over reports
that internal complications may ensue.
1t is thought that an American fleet
will be sent to China to protect Ameri.
can interests.
The court took short recess to con.
slider the motion of ). Hubley Ashton
for rehearing of the cases before q
full bench at the next term of court.
After the recess the court denied the
motion for a rehearing, so the opinion
stands as announced.

The Republican papers desire to
create the impression that the ap-
pointment of Gen. C. c. Watts, of
Charleston, to be Q. S. District At
torney for West Virginia, does not
meet with the approval of the De-
mocraey of this State. In this they
are greatly mistaken. The appoint
ment meets with universal satisfac-
ton amongst the Democracy, but it
is the reverse with the Republicans,
and they may have cause to cop
plain because be- dared, when Dis
trIcr attorney, to prosecute Repub-
icans who had been guilty of vio-
lating the election law, and for this
reason he was removed by Harrison
while he was engaged in prosecuting
Republicans who had been guilty
of perpetrating frauds upon the
ballot box. You can put the Re

REcENT lNpIAN trouble.
The Governor of Colorado Explains How
IT Occurred

The Governor of Colorado Explains How
1t Occurred.
DENVER, May Ex-Governor Waite
has transmitted communication rela-
tive to the recent Indian troubles, in
which he recites in very plain language
the causes that have led to the out
breaks. and directly charges the Indian
agents with negligence and incompe-
tency. He says: From the best in
formation 1 can get the outbreak in
New Mexico was the result of abuse
and insults by drunken and renegade
Indians. The periodical troubles in
Colorado result from the fact that the
Indians are allowed by the United States
Indian agents to wander away from the
reservations. There are two causes
which induce the Indian agents to let
the Indians leave their reservations:
'' 'First-The rations go right along.
Practically it costs the United States
just as much to support the Indians
when away from the reservation as
when at home and the real but not ap-
parent difference Is pocketed by the
thrifty Indian agent.
'Second-Indians take this vacation
in an annual hunt and contrary to their
customs before they were restricted to
reservations; they destroy all game in
these excursions, killing it for the
the same thrifty Indian agent, who
gives them written permit to leave
the reservation
The governor closes by appealing to
the president to issue an order abso-
lutely prohibiting the Indians from
leaving their reservations for hunting
privileges in Colorado.

Mr. Robinson, the Commissioner
of Agriculture of North Carolina,
told the Southern Governors at
Richmond of an experiment his
State is making. a county is per-
mitted to withdraw its convicts from
the penitentiary and put them at
work on the county roads. This
has been done, notably in MeckIen-
burgh county, and four miles out of
Charlotte, in all directions, the roads
have been reconstructed by convict
labor. So well pleased is the coun-
ty with the result that the work is
to be continued. Other counties
are adopting the plan. Just as fast
as the road construction reaches a
farm, that farm Immediately appre-
ciates in value. The effect is so
marked that there is developing a
very strong sentiment in favor of
this disposition of convict labor.
Commissioner Robinson believes it
will spread until the whole convict
force of North Carolina is engaged
in building county roads.
