IAbouehere proposed, whereupon La
bouebere said he would soon take steps
to obtain a day.
Sir Edward Gray, replying to Sir
George Baden-P Powell regarding the seiz-
ure Of the Henrietta in Behring Sea, said
the Government filed a protest against
the action of the United States authorl-
Ii es,
6 adstone. replying to John Redmond's
question, said the Government felt 1t to
be its duty to continue the business OF the
present sittings to parish council bills
and the employers liability bill, as well
as a final disposition of the bills passed
during the earlier portions of the session.
The Government proposed to reserve the
power Of taking up any non-cOntlnuous
bills If 1t was pressing necessity for so
doing; and if it was the general desire OF
the House to so do.
The Premier then reminded Redmond
OF the statement made by Chief Secre-
tary Morley that the bill for the relief of
evieted tenants would be introduced dur
ing the next session.
Sexton reminded the House that both
sides had agreed that Clause IL of the
Land Act of 1891 could not be regarded
as continuous.
Chief Secretary Morley said he was
wiling for the proposed renewal of the
clause if Balfour gave consent.
Baliour, in reply, said he could not
possibly give his consent to the introduce
ton OF q fragmentary bill.

CHICAGO, Nov. 6.-The wrangle over
the election of Mayor pro tenn. was set
tied tonight by the choice of Alderman
George 3. Swift, he receiving 62 votes to
5 for Alderman McGillen, one blank
being cast. The Democratic Aldermen,
who met early in the day but were un-
able to get a quorum owing to the ab-
sence of the Republicans, remained in
the Council chamber until the time of
the regular meeting this evening, in
order to keep McGillen, their man, in the
chair, on the plea that the original meet
ing of which he was Chairman had not
adjourned. The Republicans, who had
been secreted in a room a square from
the City Hall to keep out of the clutches
OF the Sergeant-at- Arms, marched over
at 1870 this evening. The leaders of both
factions quickly got together. and it was
decided to avoid repetition OF Satur-
days scenes. Everything was wiped off
the slate and new vote taken. McGillen
was chosen Chairman, on motion of d
Republican Alderman. He appointed
the same tellers as Saturday. and ballot
was taken. When the count was COM
pleted it was found that some tacetious
Alderman had cast two votes, so the bal
lot was thrown out and another taken,
with the result as above. Swift was then
sworn in. A special election for Mayor
to fill out the unexpired portion of Car
ter Harrison's term will be held next
month.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 6.-The progress
thus far made by the contractors on the
several main buildings of the Midwinter
Fair is highly satisfactory. The brick
work of the art building is all completed,
the iron roof girders are on the premises,
and even if rain does set in there will be
little or 40 delay in the work. The me-
chanics arts building may be said to be
practically under roof. Only the glass
for the skylights is missing, and this will
be in place in few days. The roof Of
the horticultural building will be of tin,
painted to resemble tiles, and it can readily
be understood that it will not take long
to put this in place. Another week OF
good weather will put the manufactures
building under cover. so there need be no
fear that the buildings will not be ready
in time.
The most notable progress made dur
ing the past week has been IN connection
with the administration building, which
has risen two stories in hight during
eight days. The various concesslonarIes
are also making rapid progress.
A matter of Importance which VIII re-
ceive immediate attention of the EXecu-
tive Committee is the appointment of
Chief Of the Department Of Horticulture.
The desrability of an early organization
OF that department is recognized, and no
unne cessary time will be lost. 1t is the
desire of the committee that this depart
ment shall be one of the grandest of all
the features of the exposition. The idea
is to mass the horticultural effects, just
as agricultural effects have sometimes
been massed in other eXpositions. Peo-
pie who have visited the Chicago I2XpoSi-
tion appear to nave been greatly i'm
pressed with the happy and successful
effect made by the German wine eXhib-
itors, where they not only massed their
wine together, but at the same time
showed through the different arches as II
from considerable elevation the scenic
effects of all the different wine sections
along the Rhine. A similar effect will be
aimed at in connection with the horticult
ural and viticultural displays at the Mid
winter Exposition. Those OF the fruit
and vine-groWers of the State who wish
to participate in this display should be
up and dong without further delay.
Sacramento County is entering heart
and soul into the proposition of the
northern and central counties to have
joint building at the A1idWinter Fair.
All these counties fully understand the
necessity of their making an exhibit in
the horticultural and agricultural build
ings. in addition to the general building
allotted to their county combination.
Placer County is in this combination,
SonOma is willing, and Butte and Yuba
Counties are also moving. A definite
plan for the building has not yet been de-
cided on. The Southern California coun-
ties have accepted plans for their build
ing, which is TO cost SO, 900.

CHINESE EXCLUSION.
No Money Provided to Carry on the
Registrations.

WAsHIN Nov. 6.-Although Con-
gress amended the Geary Act so as to al
low Chinese six months more within
which to register, it adjourned without
making an appropriation to carry out the
provisions OF the Act. The Chairman of
the Committee on Appropriations had
cognizance of the necessity of the Treas
ury Departments need of money to carry
out the law, and it is probable if the
urgent deficiency bill had been passed a
clause appropriating enough money at
least to begin operations would have
been inserted in the bill. As it is, regis
trations under the Act will not begin
ugtil an appropriation is made. Mean
while the Internal Revenue Bureau of
the Treasury Department will make all
its preparations, and as soon as the money
is available, it will be prepared to assign
its officers SO they can begin work at
once. The bureau has assurances that an
effort will be made TO get bill through
in the early days of the session. so the
work of registration will not be long de-
ferred. 1t is said that all the Chinese now
in the country, approximating 100000,
can be registered in sixty days, if they
promptly take advantage of the oppor-
tunity.

MARsEILLEs, Nov. 6.-The employees of
the street-car lines are on strike for
more wages and fewer hours. They be-
gan rioting yesterday. and continue to-
day, aided and abetted by many citizens.
They have overturned many of the cars
which the companies attempted to run,
and saturated some with kerosene and
burned them. They also tore up the
some of the principal streets. The police
are utterly powerless to deal with them.
The stables of the companies are already
under military guard, and it is thought it
will be necessary to send soldiers to dis
perse the mobs before the day is over.

New YORK, Nov. Ga HerGld'S La
Libertad (Honduras) dispatch says: Hon
duras fired upon the American flag this
morning, by alleged orders Of President
Vasquez and by the express command of
the Commissioner OF the Port of Amapala.
Several shots were fired after the Pacific

by General Vasquez. He fled to Nicar-
aqua, and decided to leave there in order

sponsbility. He therefore sailed from
Nicaragua for Guatemala. Minister
Baker and 100 others were fellow passen-
gers. The arrived yesterday at Amapala,
port Of entry of Honduras on the Pacific,
in the afternoon. The Commander of the
Port, Villa, demanded that Captain Dow
should surrender Bonilla. When the re-
quest was refused threat was made to
sink the ship, and it is asserted that Presi-
dent Vasquez had given orders to that
effect.
Villa was incensed at the refusal to sur
render Bonilla and gave orders to fire on
the ship after nigh tfali, when it was too
dark to leave with safety. Government
officers came on board at $3.50 this morn
ing. saying new orders were received
from the President insisting on the de-
livery OF Bonilla or the bombardnent of
the ship. Captain Dow replied that the
Commander OF Port would receive an an
swer in half an hour, but before the time
expired he sailed away. Several shots
were fired after the Costa Rjca, although

shots struck her. but did no damage
