VILLDEFY THBGEARYLAW.
The Six Companies Advise Chi
nese Not to Register.
\ BIG FUND CONTRIBUTED.
An Elaborate Plan Perfected to Set the
Act Aside.
1t VIII Be Held That the Act Is Uncon
stitutional and in Violation of
Treaty Rights Renowned
Lawyers Employed.

SAN FRANCISCO, March II. - The
Chinese ''Six companies in reply to
questions from Collector of Internal
Revenue Quinn if they had ordered the
Chinese laborers not to register, under
the Geary law, has returned an answer.
The S'Six companies" say: eve have
issued circular advising Chinese labor
ers that the lawrequiring them to register
is unconstitutional and cannot be en-
forced, and therefore suggesting to them
that they do not comply with the law.
This circular is based upon advice OF our
attorneys that the law is unconstitutional
and in violation of treaty rights.
AS result of the circular sent out by
the Six Companies, over $50, 900 have
been contributed by Chinese to fight the
law in the courts. The Six Companies
have not stopped with simply ordering
their subjects to disobey the law, but
they have set on foot an elaborate plan to
defeat 1t. An attorney of the Six Com
panies went to New York and Washing
ton some weeks ago as preliminary step,
and employed assistant counsel. James
G. Carter and J. Hubley Aston of Wash
lngton, were induced to aid in defeating
the new law.
1t has been arranged to commence the
show of the first fight in New York city.
Renowned lawyers have been employed,
chief among whom is DR.. Choate. On
the 9th of May, some Chinaman,
who will be picked out for the pur-
pose, will be arrested and taken
before one of the United States Judges,
who will be asked to order his deporta-
ton at once as no one will question the
validity of the law, and of course an
order will be made. Then writ OF
habeas corpus will be taken out before
another judge and nobody will attack the
law before him, he will remand the
prisoner, then an appeal will be taken to
the Supreme Court at Washington and
the matter must then be finally settled.
Collector Quinn stated that he had re-
ceived notice from Masonic societies
that their members would register in
compliance with law. The Masonic
societies have about 5000 members but
they are mainly of the disreputable
'element. Collector Quinn is making
elaborate preparations to register the
Chinese but the limit will be 600 day
and as there are 50, 600 Chinese in this dis
trict they could not possibly all bt
registered between now and May 4, ever
| if they wanted to be.

JULES FERRY IS DEAD /
The Celebrated French States
man Suddenly Passes Away.
THE CAUSE HEART DISEASE.
News of His Death AstOunds the City
Of Paris.
None Since the Death of Gambetti Has
Made Such an Impression-A Serious
Loss to the French Government
No Successor Mentioned.

PARIS, March 17.-Jules Francois Ca
mile Ferry, the celebrated statesman, is
dead.
NJ. Ferry's death was caused by heart
disease. The affiic:ion of the heart from
which he suffered was due to the effect OF
bullet striking a rib near the ba Sc of
his heart at the time he was attacked by
Aubertin in 1887. He was seized with
spasms early this morning and despite
every effort made by physicians who were
lastlly summoned, the commissions con-
tlnued to grow in violence until at 6
O'Clock in the evening ne expired in a
terribly severe spasm.
Nine. Ferry said in an interview with a
reporter this evening: For the last two
weeks M. Ferry complained of difficulty
In breathing. His sleep was much broken,
and his general health suffered in conse-
quenee In the last few days he seemed to
recover somewhat his former energy and
spirits although his difficulty in BREATH
ing was increasing. Last evening he went
to bed at 10 o'clock. Before midnight he

one more severe. The doctor arrived at
O'Clock and after treatment NJ. Ferry
felt relieved and fell into a sound sleep,
He was partly dressed at $3.50, and we
helped him to an arm chair, and for an
I
IRENE prostration he could talk but little.
At 1880 he began struggling for breath.
This sudden rally was followed bv
another sinking turn, and these
alterations of ralIying and sinking con-
tlnued until O'Clock when he raised him.
self in his seat, looked at his wife fixedly
and exclaimed 'sSave me, - and fell back
exhausted.
His struggle for breath became greater
and physicians injected morphine to re-
lieve the pain. After few unintelligible
words he fell into a state OF coma in
which he died in the armchair in which
for years he had done all his writing and
reading. All the members of his family
and Nine. Floquet were with him to the
last.
The news of Ferry's death astounded
the city and none since Gambetta's death
has made such an impression Hundreds
of politicians called at the house during
the evening and inscribed their names in
the VISITORS book
The general. feeling is that although
Ferry election to the presidency of the
senate was contrary TO the wishes of Car
not and Ribot, his death is a serious loss
to the government. AS yet the name of
possible successors to the presidency of
| the senate is hardly mentioned.

NEARING THE END.
Argument in the Panama Trial VIII Soon
Be Concluded

Argument in the Panama Trial VIII Soon
Be Concluded
PARIS, March 17.-Barboux, counsel for
Charles De Lesseps, resumed argument
for the defense at the opening of court
this morning. He maintained that his
client was ignorant OF the manner in
which Baron Reinach used the money
paid him by the canal company; that evil
dence in the case proved that the efforts
OF Clemenceau, Floquet and De Freycinet
to preventa law suit from being instituted
by Relnach against the company were
made solely in the interests of the govern
ment.
Dubuit, counsel for Marius Fontaine,
one of the indicted Panama directors, re-
ceIVed an ovation on account of his spirited
protest yesterday against Premier Ribot's
imputation on members ofsthe bar, in his
statement in the chamber of deputies
When Dubuit arrived in the robing room
of the assize court before resumption of
the trial today, members of the bar
cheered and waived their official caps
several minutes. Dubuit was warmly
congratulated on his effort as successful
refutation OF Ribot's charges.
The incident, which arose out of the re-
port that counsel for Cottu intended to
make an open statement in court to the
effect that certain foreign ambassadors
were among the recipients of Panama
! bribery money, has excited the keenest
indication among members OF the legal
profession.
Barbour in concluding said: From the
outset OF the trial the country looked
upon it less for its value than as symp-
/ tom of French public life. All these men
wore the harness Of office, and not alone
those accused here. but others also might
I have been prosecuted in order to satisfy
public opinion. Why, exclaimed NJ. Bar
boux, were the Louviers and Thevanets
let go? Doubtless because it would have
been dangerous to prosecute them. Your
consciences as iurymen will dictate to
you a verdict whereby you Will earn the
| imperishable honor of having done JUS
tice to an honorable man, restored fame
to an iIlustrious name and compensated
the country for prestige lost through the
accusation of one of her noblest children.
Dubluit then proceeded to argue in de-
tense of M. Marcus Fontaine. He urged
that there was nothing in the evidence to
sustain the charge against Fontaine.

TOLEDO, o., March 17.-General Man
ager Ashley, of the Ann Arbor railway
and its general counsel, appeared before
Honorable William H. Taft, United States
circuit Judge at Detroit today, and made
application for mandatory injunction
against Chief Arthur, OF the Brotherhood
OF Locomotive engineers, and Chief Sar-
gent, of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen, requiring them to raise the boy
colt against Ann Ar or cars. Judge Taft
allowed the order as prayed for. 1t is
most sweeping in its terms. 1t is a tenn
porary restraining order, however, and
Monday, March 81, is set for a hearing of
the motion for a permanent injunction.
The injunction restraints defendant
companies from refusing to extend to the
company complaining the same equal
facilities for an interchange of traffic or
interstate business as enjoyed by other
companies. The defendants are the
Michigan Central, Wabash, Detroit,
Grand Haven & Milwaukee, Chicago &
Grand Trunk, Cincinnati, Saginaw &
Mackinaw and Detroit, Lansing &
Northern railroad companies.
