Under Olney's Order.

SAN Francisco, Nov. 4-The Chinese
who are confined In jail pending deper-
tation for falling to comply with the
Geary registration law are to be released,
and will enjoy the same privilege to reg
lister under the McCreary bill as their
countrymen who are still at liberty.
This is in compliance with the dispatch
received by District Attorney Garter
from Attorney General OIney. Chinese
conv,ctod of felony will be deported.
The others will be released. None of the
Chinese ordered deported have been sent
away. The only persons that Judges
McKenna and Morrow will deal With
will be those who were ordered deported
by the two judges. respectively. There
are some persons who maintain that the
Chinese will still refuse TO register, and
the claim is made that in doing so an
9th attempt will be made to take the
matter before the United States supreme
court. The Geary act, with its amend
men,s, is not the original Geary act. As
get 70 preparations have been made to
register the Chinese. Collector Quinn,
is awaiting instructions. and as soon as
he is informed of the plan to be followed
hr will cause notice to be given prelim-
mary to the commencement of work.
Among the government officials it is
freely stated that the Chinese will regis
lsr. now that the opportunity is again
given them to do so.

today. Before the Grape draped speak
er's desk stood two alderman, political
opponents, each declaring himself to be
chairman Of the body. The reading
clerk leaped upon the. back of one of the
Contestants and tried 10 eject him. An~
other clerk tore up the resolution, be-
cause 1t was not ia line with what bis
party desired. Over the somber-draped
rails of the speakers stand leaped an
other alderman upon the back of the
clerk, and his colleagues focked to his
aid Upon him jumped an alderman of
the opposing faction. and clutcbing at
the throat of the man who, by force, was
irving TO get before the council that
which should have legally been received.
Police officers rushed into the enclosure
TO separate the struggling aldermen, and
in the fight that ensued the Grape which
hung about the desk of the dead mayor
was rent, torn down and irampled un-
der foot. The men who three DAYS ago
spent money and labor to honor Mayor
Harrison disgraced his memory today
by disreputable brawl over the right
to sit for twenty minutes in his chair
Tonight the council chamber is guarded
by police officers and no one Is allowed

The New Mayor.

Mr. Paul Kreft, who was elected mayor
by the common council to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of DR.. Rinehart, is a
native of Dantzic, Prussia, where he was
born about 45 years ago. In 1868 he immi-
grated to the United States, and has re-
sided at The Dalles since 1881. He was
elected councilman two years ago for the
long term, and has served the city in this
capacity on several important committees
in very faithful manner. He has always
taken great interest in local affairs,
and has been an indefatiguable worker for
the best interests of the municipality. For
the past few years he has been member of
the firm of Kreft & Vause, dealers in
paints and artists material. 1t is to be
hoped that Mr.. Kreft will evince the same
interest in city affairs he always has, and
that, under his manag, ment, the advance
ment of The Dalles will be very marked.

Consrt ss Adjourned

WASHINGTON, Nov, 3-The senate bas
passed the house joint resolution tor a
final adjournment at 8 o'clock this after
noon, so at that hour tho extra session
will close. The resolution was not passed
without opposition. Coke, Dolph, Har-
ris, Call, Berry, Mills, Allan, and PETER.
spoke against adjourning on the ground
that there was important business which
ought to be transacted promptly.
Allen declared the Popu;is.s were pre-
pared for work, They were in congress
to assist in passing proper tariff bill
and enacting other needed legislation.
Cockrell said it was futile to attempt
to keep a quorum In the senate till the
opening of the regular session. Gray
agreed with him.
Cullom said he would vote for the res
oluton because he believed the majority
desired to adjourn, and added tha, il
congress would, before adjourniDg, an
nounce to the country 1t did not intend
either to repeal the election law or the
tariff law, IL would be doing a very good
piece OF work.
Blackburn favored the resolution,
which then passed.
House bill in aid of the worlds fair
prizewlDners exhibition. to be held in
New York city, was then passed.
After the appointment of members of
the joint committee to wait on the presl-
dent to inform him congress was ready
to adjourn, the senate went iuto execu-
tive session.
The clock was turne lEback six min
utes in order TO allow the senate to com
pletc its business, at the conclusion of
which it also adjourned sine die.
Adjournment defeated the deficiency
bill and other pending measures.
The adjournment was without con-
irming the nomination of Horn blower
to the United States supreme bench.
This has the effect of rejection. The
president is therefore compelled to send
in his name again or nominate a new
man.
The president this afternoon sig ed

that letter written by Henry P;anz, the
young brewer, whose body was found
hanging 10 a tree about year ago, has
been brought to light which clears up the
mystery which has SO long surrounded the
young mans death. The letter was
written to young lady who had rejected
Planz, and states that Planz was about to
escape from his troubles. The letter I'M
plores the young lady to keep its con-
tents secret unless some one was finally
convicted of PIanz's murder. This letter

brewery, committed suicide to escape
from his troubles.
