UNPRECEDENTED SUCCESS,

With the unprecedented success
of Johann Hoffs Malt Extract, it
was naturally to be expected that
limitations would soon follow.
Johann Hoff accepts this as the
best compliment which could be
paid to him, as only persons and
things of sterling value are copied
by the third and fourth rate aspir-
ants to fame and distinction. Envy
is at the bottom of all social and
commercial animosity.
The public is therefore warned
against substitutes and worthless
limitations sold under similar names,
or under the name of ''Hoff Ex-
tract"
The genuine has the signature of
JOHANN HOFF" on the neck

MUST THE CHINESE GO.
Treasury Onicials will Wait for the supreme
Court to Pass On the Geary Law.

Treasury Oficials will Wait for the supreme
Court to Pass On the Geary Law.
Next Friday. May s. the time within which.
according to the provisions of the Chinese ex-
clusion act, known as the Geary law, the
Chinese inhabitants of the United States
must register their names. occupation.
&C.. with the collector Of internal revenue
for their district expires. The law originally
provided that the Celestials should deposit
their photographs with the same officer. but
this portion of the act was modified as being
unnecessary by Secretary Carlisle. Itrequires.
however. that those who fail to carry out the
provisions should be expelled from the United
States and shipped back TO China.
According to the last census there are about
10000 Chinese in this country, and it is said
that not more than 100 of this number have
registered. The collectors have advised them
to register. but they have received this advice
in an impassive way, smiling while it was given.
working harder than ever, they smiled in
amiability, and needing neither advice nor
warning.
With the closing O. the register books on
Friday the work Of the internal revenue. so far
as the present is concerned. is completed
They haze not been charged with the
enforcement OF the law and will not
act until orders are received from Secretary
Carlisle Thus far no orders have been re-
ceived. Assistant Secretary Of the Treasury
Spaulding. who has had the control of this
matter, said this morning that no steps had as
yet been taken to have the law carried into
effect.
1t is the general understanding that the SUI
prcme Court will first decide whether the
Geary law is constitutional before the govern
ment acts. About the 9Th or sth OF this
month the Supreme Court will consider
case in which the constitutionality
OF the law will be tested. In the meantime the
matter VIII remain in sfatu quo unless the local
officers should make arrests
This action is not anticipated. but should
this be done Gen. Spaulding stated that there
would be no trial until the decision of the
Supreme Court was made.

Transfer Of Artillery Troops.

Washington would fall an easy prey today to any
r,pacious foe, foreign or domestic, that might
choose to swoop down, for the sole defense of
the national capital, barring the militia con-
sists Of one battery of artillery, light battery c,
at the barracks and the cavalry at Fort Myer.
Batteries E, and L, third artillery, consist
ing of 23l men and officers. together with their
families, left Washington this morning for Fort
Mcpherson barracks, Atlanta, Ga, which, for
the next few years, viii be their home. They
were accompanied by batteries d and from
Fort McHenry. Nd.
These troops will be replaced tomorrow night
by four batteries of the fourth artillery. which
left Atlanta this morning. Two batteries of
the fourth will also go to Fort McHenry. The
transfer of troops involved the transportation
of about 900 men and forty car loads OF freight
and baggage. The contract was awarded to
the Richmond and Danville Railroad Company,
and the troops left Washington at noon on the
regular passenger schedule
The departure OF the third will be regretted
in social circles, during the stay of the
officers at the barracks they had become very
popular in the army social life of the capital.
The officers who left today were Lieut. Col
cambridge, Capt Turnbull. Capt Smith. Capt.
Hess, Lieut.. Madden and Lieut.. Ludlow.

ART AT CHICAGO.
Norton Bush Brings Back Important
News


Norton Bush. the artist, is just back
from Chicago, where he went on April in
charge of the California exhibit of fine arts,
lie will remain on the coast until October
l in connection with the State fair and
then return to Chicago
MIR. Bush says that California Is really
the only State which has an art display at
the Columbian Exposition. In this con-
nection be brings news of interest and i'm
portance TO our artists. He says that just
before his departure from Chicago he was
informed by one Of the art jurors that
works Of art in State buildings would be
considered by them if application were
made by individual artists, stating the
work desired TO be examined. Then, if
meritoriOus, such work will be given
honorable MENTION" as the jury is not
permitted to bestow medals outside of the
Fine Arts building. Honorable men,
ton" under these circumstances will be
considered equivalent to a medal in the
awards in The main structure. There are,
however, one or two provisos to this con-
cesson. One CT these is that no artist who
has work in the national gallery will be
allowed to compete in the State building
Another is that no picture refused admis-
sion to the gallery of fine arts will be
eligible to examination in the State collec-
tons.
This is an important ruling for Califor-
mans. They have only about half a dozen
oil-painsings in the national building,
whereas they have about 100 in the State
structure

RATES COMPARED WITH OURS
Interview With Director of the De.
partment-Gigantic Spider Web
of Underground Cables.

In Germany they do not operate the
telegraph and telephone on the same plan
as prevails in the United States, and many
thinking travellers assert that the system
iu vogue in the German empire for the
conduct of hose enterprises, as we'll as the
railroad. is model fit for all nations to
adopt.
Details of the way in which Emperor
Williams country manages the electrical
department of Government were related to
a CALL reporter yesterday by Heinrich
Hofmeister. director of the German tele-
graph system and superintendent OF the
cable station at Emden. He arrived here
on Sunday from Central America, where
he had gone on official business for his
Government, and is the guest of his kns-
man, Captain Herman Meyer, Of Meyer.
Wilson & Co.
This is Dr.. Hofmeister's first visit to
California. though he has often crossed the
ocean to the Atlantic States.
Asked to state the difference between
teIegraphc service in his country and this,
DR.. HOfmester said:
THE greatest difference which l have
observed is that we do more for the small
towns and the villages all over the en-
pire. We have arranged 1t SO that the
smallest communities have service
twice day for letters. newspapers, pack
ages and money. ana that they have an
efficient telegraph and telephone service.

RELICS OF THE DEAD.
Sale of Deceased Sailors Effects at
Low Figures.

Clerk Cress Unger of the customs SER
vice posed admirably as an auctioneer
yesterday when he supeiintende the sale
of the dead seamen's effects which, ever
since October, 1885, have been piling up in
the custody OF Deputy E. B. Jerome. The
sale occurred at 10 A. NJ. and the old silver
watches, brass chains, purses, etc.. were
soon disposed OF.
The lottery ticket. issued by the Louisi-
ana Lottery Company in June. 1888. and
found in Frank Gustofs0n's possession
when that sailor launched out upon the
great unknown" in February. 1889. was
not sold as it was not deemed quite the
proper thing to attempt to augment the
Marine Hospital fund, to the credit Of
which fund the proceeds of the sale went.
by violating the anti-lOttery laws Of this
great country.
Mr.. Unger can therefore still claim re-
spect as a law-abiding citizen. and this
esteem may not be lessened much when 1T
becomes generally known that he still
holds on to the ticket.
Altogether neat little sum Of money
was realized. One old silver watch sold
Tor 80 cents. and the Hawaiian coin
brought 70 cents from ready purchaser.

put on an electric car soon. This method
accounts in part for the reduction OF cars
in use on that line.
At the Valenria-street power-house no
official was to be found last night. but an
employe vouchsafed the information that
four cars had been taken off that line, and
Il corresponding reduction made In the
number run on the Market-street INES.
On the Sacramento and Washington
street routes one car has been taken from
each, and an official said last night that
traffic was exceedingly light.
The employees OF the Central Street Kali
way Company are about the only ones III
this city in that line OF work who have
failed to get their paw promptly.
The Southern Pacific Company owns the
line. AM, in common with all other en-
rloyes of that road, the Central men will
have to wait until the middle of the pres
ent month for their last months pay.
Many complaints are heard among the
men, not few of whom are sadly in need
of the money due them.
