How the News was Received in San
 Francisco.

Francisco.
 SAN FRAScisoo, May l6.-The news that the Supreme Court had sustained the decision establishing the constitutionality of the Geary exclusion law, caused the greatest excitement in the Chinese quarters here. Crowds of Chinamen gather cred around their bulletin board and talked over the bad news in a greatly excited manner.
 A largely attended ratification meeting was held last night, but everything was orderly.
 The authorities have taken no action yet, but are waiting further orders from Washington.
 It is thought that the President will delay action until Congress conyenes, when the Chinese sympa- thizers hope that the law will be repealed.

 relief Of the rate payers, being de- voted to such objects as education. road improvement and charity. In Swedish towns, seven-tenths of the surplus is paid to the municipality. two tenths to the district court and one-tenth to the agricultural so- ciety ofthe county. In Norway, &C., cording to recent statistics, 20 per cent. of the surplus has been spent for educational purposes, seven per cent. for charitable institutions, 2 per cent. for road improvement and 7 per cent. for the furtherance of the cause of temperance through subsidies to the teetotal societies and other ways. In Sweden the l companies gave sub-licenses to pro- prietors of hotels and few retail 1 dealers, who are allowed to reap a small profit. In Norway no sub l licenses are granted, the companies placing employees in hotels and | clubs to carry on the sale of liquor to guests or members.-Ex.

Charges Against MeIasrnay Reported
 False.

Charges Against MeIasrnay Reported
 False.
 A correspondent writing from
 Yuma to the Phenix Republican
 gives the following concerning the
 charges against Murray McInernay:
 People have had time to think
 over the McInernay case, and many
 are now of different opinion than
 at first.
 Referring to the charges made
 against him for the embezzlement
 of funds and property of the Terri tory the facts. were brought ont
 will show instead of any misappli- cation of citbsE- that the aharsaa are without foundation in fact. In the case of the alledged shortage in funds the record show that every dollar due to Superintendent Meade and in the hands of the ex-Superin- tendant was paid him on the morn ing of May 2, 1898, and as soon as the books were posted up to April 22, so that the different amounts could be determined.
 While actual possession of the prison was given to Meade on April 22, it took until May 2, to post up the cash books. This arrangement was agreed to between them to enable McInernay to make settle ment with Capt. Hiel Hale ex-assis- tant superintendent. On April 2s McInernay wrote the Valley Bank of Phenix, requesting that the funds be sent to him, but before receipt oI same MeInernsy accompanied his family to Los Angeles, returning on May lst at 5:30p. m.
 Previous to starting, MeInernay notified Supt. Meade that the funds 1 would be in the mail of the 2Sth and | asked Meade to safely keep all let ters from the Valley bank until his return. On the return of McIner- nay the letters were handed to him by Assistant Superintendent Shaw. | as McInernay's mail still came in the prison box. The morning fol- loving settlement was effected and SlO2O.O4 paid to Supt. Meade and the proper receipts taken. In the $l,0O0 certificate of deposit from the Valley bank was given Meade in part payment, which 'an be seen in the Valley bank by my one who will take the trouble to 'sk to see it. That shuts the mouth 'f the people who said McIneruay vent to California to get funds.
 In the matter of carrying of prop- rty of the Territory, Mir. McIner- lay while assuring your correspon- lent that the charges are as lnfounded as in the case of the nnds, yet he preferes the court to " the case before the newspapers. 'ut his friends and the public can est assured that he is able to come ut of the matter clear of blame. would be strange indeed that a nan who has had the buying of 10000 worth of goods in the past To years and the handling of Sl,OOO I Territorial money should account lr every dollar and after retiring arry of few boxes oflinens, table are, Sc.
 Had he been so disposed he prob bly, could have put cash in his ockets instead of carrying of truck ence the charges are regarded as 'lse. Several press dispatches have sen sent out from here placing Me 1ernay in a bad light, but it now -ansplres that they were sent by a erk at the prison who wanted to 'tand in" with the new administra- on.
