END OF THE TAN CASES.

Whom Fan-Tan Is Not Fan -Tan-Oddttiss
of the Jury System.
The jury-juggling which has occurred
in the Chinese fan-tan cases, which
have been occupying 80 much time
recently in Judge Smiths court, is
attracting considerable attention.
Yesterday another chapter was added
to these which have preceded during
the past week. The desler and cashier
of the tan game, where 10 Mengoians
wers arrested, were tried yester-
day. Their names were All Suey
and Ah Wong. The case turned.
as in the others, on whether
the reided game was ian-tan or
an "eight side" game, the deiendauts
being charged with playing fan-tan.
The testimony WIS practically the
came as that given in the previous
trials, in which some were convicted
and some acquitted. Ia this case the
jury believed that the defence had
shown the game not to have been tan
and, after being out g few minutes.
acquitted Ah Suey and All Wong, much
10 the disgust of the officers who raided
the game.

THE EMlGRANrQ QUESTION
A CONFERENCE ASKED BY THE
SOUTHERN PACIFIC.
The Reorganization OF the New York
and New EnRland-The Closing
of the Local Ohicss Of the
Burlington Route.

CHICAGO, April 2S.-Another request
was received from the Southern Pacific
today for conference of the interested
liaes upon the emigrsnt question. All
things are ripe for such conference if
any assurance could be obtained that
the Union Pacific would be party to
it, or would be willing to observe the
results OF the meeting Gs binding
upen it.
There is no question that the South
ern Pacific is growing very restless under
the present condition of affairs, and it
will bring all the pressure it can to bear
upon the Union Pacific. 1t tried its
hand upon the lines of the Western
Passenger association and found them
immovRble. The only thing that can
be made to give way is the Union
Pacific, for the other lines say they will
not bulge an inch. They have already
given up to the Union Pacific al they
propose to surrender. General Pass9n
ger Agent Goodman made the request
today for conference, and although no
formal answer has as yet been rendered
to him, there ls not much probability
that the conference will be held.
The Western Passenger association
lines were for o time disposed to hold
their regular May meeting at Hot
Springs, Ark, but they have given up
that idea. Rates are in too shaky con-
dition at present to admit of the gener al
passenger agents going 80 far from Chi
cago, The meeting, therefore, will be
held, ss usual, in Chicago.

Bright things in raimeat were shown

the last three days on account of the
cool days. The bright sunshine of the
fore part of the week brought out the
gorgeous Easter hats and the spring sp-

of the apparel were none the less proud
because il has been delayed. The warm
weather was sufficient to make them
happy, though we never have cold
weather enough to make one feel other

During the summer-like days light

A DEaa Takes His Gun Out of Soak and
Is Arrested.
Carles Oropeza, a sterling representa-
tive of sunny Mexico who halls from
Pasadena, had his liberty cut short at 8
O'Clock last night by Officer Kolle. Oro-
peza now languishes in durance vile on
charge OF carrying concealed weapons.
When arrested the Mexican protested
that he W.. on his way homo with the
weapon; that he had just taken it from
the pawnshop, whore he had it ''in
SOAK" and was in bis sisters saloon on
Upper Main street when arrested.
Under the circumstances, any man
who would carry such gun should be
arrested upon almost sny charge. The
weapon was 80 large he could hardly
have concealed it had he tried and
more, it was broken and unloaded, and
could not have been fred. The police
clerk was OF the humorous opinion that
Oropeza should have been charged with
obstructing the street with a cannon in

Youths Convicted OF Disturbing u R--
ligious Meeting.
The most important case before Judge
Seaman yesterday was the trial of the
boys Harold Hsgler, Roy Cogswell, Hugh
Newhsrt, Fred Bright, Ralph Kamlin
George Tucker and Harry Williams, On
a charge of disturbing a religious meet
ing in the Vincent III. E. church, or
Twenty seventh street. The court.
room was crowded with spec
taters, from the minister down to
the Sunday school pupils, and all took
an unusual interest in the case. The
evidence was conclusive that the boys
disturbed the church meeting by loud
and tumultuous conduct, aud through
the commendable efforts OF Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Rush, Judge Seaman
found the young boys guilty, as charged.
They will be sentenced later.
