PORT TOWNSEND, WASH, July 23.-The
steamer Umatilla was seized this morn
ing by the collector of customs for refus-
ing to take Chinese woman aboard.
The steamer will be held and libeled by
the government for bringing Chinese
unlawfully into the United States.
Judge Hanford having decided that a
Chinese woman was brought here on
board this ship, she was to be returned.
Collector Saunders, under instructions
of the United States district attorney,
informed Captain Holmes that either he
must take her or the ship would be
seized. The captain refused, with the
result stated. The vessel remained here
until 9 O'Clock. She bad 175 cabin

particular force on the question OF Chi
nese immigration. He asked: "What
are we to do with the great and pressing
problem of immigration? Is it our duty
to admit them Unfortunately ?"
In referring to the Mongolian, he said:
"Elad it been permitted, 1000, 600 Mon
goiians would now be occupying the
western portion of the country"
Further on he said "They come to
stay and to dehauch the moral infu-
eRces that now exist and cited the
fact that there was population Of ID, ,000
living in New York who were sapping
the life blood of the American laborer.
He said: "They can live on 20 cents
day where it takes 81 to support Ameri-
cans"
He continued in this strain and urged
self-preservation by shutting out the
Mongolians. He cited the treaties with
China as mistakes, as the advantages
were all on the side of the Chinsman,
and claimed that the acts OF 1883 and
1892 did not 90 far enough in dealing
with the dangerous people. He as
serted that the foreign powers were
automatically trying to create
an antipathy between China and this
country for selfish commercial objects,
and declared Great Britain was the
most active nation in melting bad

PARIS. July 22.-At midnight it is
stated Slams reply to Frances ultima
tum is considered unsatisfactory, and
the French minister resident will pro-
badly leave Bangkok on Wednesday to
20 aboard cruiser. The refusal OF the
French minister Of foreign affairs to give
Siam an extension of time is ascribed to
his desire to force Slams hand and pre-
vent her negotiating for British sup.
port.
The Siamese government proposes,
without, however, making it a condi-
ton, the appointment Of mixed COM
mission to inquire into the question Of
damages and the amount OF money in
IDENTITIES mentioned in the French de-
mand. The Siamese government will
Immediately deposit 100000 francs to
cover the amount of ipdemnifcation
designated above. The king. however,
has reason to believe that after proper
inquiry this sum will be found to exceed
the amount of indemnitleB claimable of
justice BY the French government.
The reply closes by saying the Siam
ese government is confident that In &C.
ceding to the demands of the French
government in this manner it has given
proof of it's sincere desire-to maintain
good relations and settle in the most
complete manner all the pending ques-
tione.

A MISLEADING REPORT.

The International Trust Company of

DENVER, July 23.-In dispatch from
here last night it was said that at the
request of the General Electric comps any
Judge Hallet had appointed receiver
for the Pueblo City Railway company
and the International Trust company,
with liabilities of $1,000, 900. So far as
this concerns tho International Trust
company the statement is erroneous,
without foundation and calculated to do
them great injury. The simple facts
are that the General Electric company,
holders of the first mortgage bonds of
the Pueblo City Railway company,
brought suit for receiver. The Inter
national Trust company, as trustee un.
der the second mortgage, was made
formal party defendant to the suit. 1t
had absolutely only formal connection
with the suit. The International Trust
company is one OF the strongest and

CLEvERLY CAPTURED.
ARREST, OF A NOTED EUROPEAN
CROOK IN GOTHAM.
One Of his Victims in Marseilles Fol-
lowed Him to THIS Country and
suoceeded in Bringing Him
to Justice.

NEW YoRK, July 23.--Juan Andreoni,
alias Juan Daodati, alias Giovanni Caval-
ero,- said to be one of the most noted
saie-craekers and all-rcund thieves in
Europe, was arrested here last evening.
Over year ago he succeeded in gaining
the coufidenca of Marine .Malnat; and

france, passing himself off as Spanish
srtist. One day he disappeared, to-
gether with $4,000 francs cash and a
large quantity of Marseilles city bonds.
This was yea1 ago last May, and the
most strenuous efforts OF the French
police failed to locate him. He came to
this country as Giovanni Cavalero, and
lived in good style. He claimed to be
q stock. broker. In March he visited
banking house to sell the stolen bonds.
They bore Malnati's name, and, the
firm being suspicious, agreed to purchase
the bonds, paying 5000 down and asking
few days time to look them up. Cav
alero went away, and the bankers insti-
tuted an investigation, which speedily
brought out the story. The rightful
owner, Marius Malnati, came to this
country armed with the proper docu-
ments to secure the thief. but Cavalero
evidently had been alarmed and never
returned to the banking house. Malnati
would not give up and, hiring apart
ments, determined to haunt the stree ts
in the hopes of finally catching his
man. Last evening he came upon him
talking with woman. Malnati
rushed up to Policeman Mcdonnell
and told his story. Unfortunately he had
none of the necessary papers with him
and the policeman could not make the
arrest, but sympathizing with the
Frenchman's griefat the prospect of los
ing his man, Mcconnell suggested that
if Malnati wond perpetrate a vigorous
assault upon Cavalero, he (the police
many could run them both in over night.
The Frenchman jumped with delight
and rushing at Csvalero dealt him a
furious blow. Csvaero looked around
in surprise, and recognizing his victim,
gave yell and fled into the basement
OF hotel near by. Malnati was not to
beaten, however, and dragged him back
to the street pounding him vigorously,
Mcconnell then arrested both and when
arraigned before Justice Hogan this
morning and the facts related, Malnati
was released and Cavalero held for ex-
animation and to give Malnati time to
put the matter in proper form.

WEIR Cry, Kan, July 23.-The Sab
bath passed quietly in this district.
The mine owners have decided not to
accept the protection of the deputy
sheriffs offered by Sheriff Arnold, who,
they say, recruited them from the ranks
of the strikers. The owners are arming
their own men.
President Walters of the Miners asso-
citation, who just got back from Missouri
last night, addressed big mass meet
ing of strikers, prsising them for the
work they did at the pit where the rios
occurred. He regretted that he was ab-
sent at the time, for he would have been
glad to have led the men to the conflict.
He urged them to keep on going to the
pit and talking to the men.
Remember" said he, II do not urge
violence. Let the women 60 first, but
let the men follow to see that they are
not inshlted by scabs and blacklegs.
Don't be afraid. The only charge upon
which you can be arrested is
that OF trespass, and that does
not amount to anything. The only way
to win this strike is to win
ft-and you know what that means. If
we catch scsbs out after dark and give
them good thrashing what can be
done? They cannot call out the troops
for that"
These remarks by President Walters
were loudly eheered. They have, how
ever, created uneasy feeling in other
circles, and the mine owners fear
violence will increase from now
on. It is understood hun
dreds of miners thrown out
of work in Colorado by the closing of
the mines have been engaged to come
here.

A White Metal Mass Meeting ct Butte,

BUTTE, Mont, July ga large mass
meeting in the interest of silver was
held here last night, leading citizens
from different parts OF the state partici-
pating. The meeting was addressed by
Hon. W. A. CLARK, ex-senator Sanders,
ex-Gongressman Maginnis, Hon. Lee
Mantle. recently. appointed United
States senator, and others. Much en-
thusiasm was manifested and a very
lengthy address to the people of the
country, formulated by the Free Coin
age association in the afternoon, was
unanimously adopted. Its arguments
are in line with those of the address re.
Gently adopted by the Colorado silver
convention.
1t rehearses the various arguments in
favor of silver and dwells on the disas-
trous effects its complete overthrow will
have on the western states and terri
tories, directly and indirectly. The
claim thatithe operation of the Sherman
act or the foreign fear Of free coinage is
responsible for the recent tremendous
outflow OF goid is vigorously combatted
and the assertion made that it is due
solely and only to the fact that the
balance of trade has been enormously
against US, and owing to this the gold
would have gone just the same if there
had been no silver law in existence.
With regard to the cost of producing
silver the address asserts fatty that
every ounce of silver produced in the
United States costs more than $1.29 per
ounce.
The Sherman law, it comedies, is
wrong in principle, because it degr AIDES
silver into a more commodity to be buf-
feted about by unprincipled speculators.
At the same time the treasury notes
issued under its provisions have been of
lnestImable benefit by increasing the
at a critical time and thus
disaster. To repeal this law
would be to destroy
silver forever and play directly into the
hands of the advocates of a
single gold standard and contracted
currency. 1t would bethe cruel !
1ebtor class, for 1t would enormously
increase the purchasing power of gold |
and correspondingly lower the value of
Ill products, and of every form of prop
srty.
The Sherman law WAS never favored
oy the advocates OF free silver coinage,
'ays the address, but bad as it is. it is
low all that remains between the desire
II the gold standard men and the con-
ummation of their selfish ends, and
must be.retained in the interest OF the
ommon p6ople until something better
8 conceded in it's stead.
