learned that for several years past the Chi

OF such an agreement and has represented
that while the Chinese empire was desir-

do so in the present spirit of the Chinese

also complained that the Scott and Geary
laws were in contraventiOn of the treaties
heretofore negotiated. The present treaty
is generally considered as the forerunner
OF a commercial treaty, the draft OF which
is believed TO have been made and for

Chinese government. Secretary Gresham

Superintendent Powell Would Like @
Remedy for the Tramp Nuisance.

AS a remedy for the tramp nuisance. Po-
lice Superintendent Powell favors the whip

of this kind would bring about a speedy

no law that provides for a whipping post,
the superintendent proposes to make war
on the bum element with his police force.
This state of mind was brought about by a
visit which he made yesterday to the work.

Senator Morgan, chairman of the foreign

little can be done in that direction as long

opinion that IL this country would control

been imbedded in his neck for the past
tkirty-one years. For three years he has

A dispatch received at the Reno
Journal office from the Austin Reyeille
states that Alpheus Vaughn of that
place shot and killed John Ulster and
wounded Willie Ulster at the Ulster
ranch Saturday afternoon. Vaughn
came to town and surrendered himself
and was lodged in jail. He claims
that he acted in self-defense. Alpheus
Vaughn is young man, about twenty
two years of age, his father having a
farm and stock ranch at place call
ed Vaughn's station, on the Austin d
Battle Mountain railroad, about twenty
miles from Austin. There are three
Vaughn boys, all of whom were locally
notorious. Their ideal of life was of
the Jesse James type. They were
cowboys and delighted in braggadocio,
always telling of their imaginary ex
PLOTS in which revolver and bowie
knife played prominent part. John
and Willie Ulster were the sons of
Joe Ulster, whose stock ranch is
about five miles from Vaughn Station.
John was boy about seventeen and
Willie is not more than fourteen. The
mother of the two boys is sister of
Mrs. George Watt. Mrs. Harry
Clark of this city and the family of
William Eason on the meadows are
near relatives.
