Washingto ton, Nov. 3.-Secretary Car
Isle today wrote the following letter to
Hon. Herman Stump, superintendent
of immigration, in relation to the case
of John James Howard who was ar
rested and charged with landing here
in violation of the contract labor laws:
ITO Herman Stump, superintendent
of immigration-Sir: / have carefully
examined the evidence taken before the
board of special inquiry into the case of
John James Howard and the represen-
tatives of the board and commissioners
of immigration at Ellis Island, New
York. and have reached the conclusion
that said Howard comes within the
first provision of section of the act APP
proved February 26, 1885, and therefore
ought not to be deported. The decision
of Secretary Window, March u, 1890,
and Assistant Secretary Spaulding
April 30. 1891, that immigrants who
come here under employment strictly
as domestic or personal servants can
not be lawfully admitted into the coun-
try or permitted to remain here unless
they actually come with their employer,
are not approved and will not be here
after regarded as presidents by the
immigration officials attached to this
department. You are directed to make
the proper order for the release of How
ard and for his return to the place
from which he was taken, if he desires
to go there. Very respectfully yours,
JOHN G. CARLISLE,
Secretary of the Treasury. y
Upon receipt of this letter, STUMP

LOTS OF GOLD IN TIE KoorENAY
Prospects of a Large Increase of the
Present Output.

Up to this year, British Columbia
has owed it's reputation as mining
country to the gold output of Cariboo
district; but this year will prove that
Kootenay is not only British Colnm-
bias greatest silver-and-lead-prod
ing district, but that it has wrested
from Cariboo the palm of being the
greatest gold-producing district of the
province. says the Nelson Tribune.
The gold output of Cariboo comes from
gravel mines; none, so far, coming
from quartz mines. The output of
I<ootenay is mainly from quartz mines,
and as quartz mining in Kootenay is
not fairly commenced, the present out
put is likely to be greatly exceeded
in the near future. Gravel mining
gives employment to few men, and at
best is not a lasting industry Quartz
mining necessarily gives employment
to a large number of men, and the in
dustry Is lasting one. The gold out
put of Kootenay will this year approx
innate a total of 5000, 900. as follows:

CHINESE IN FLIGHT
The Capture Of Kin Chow and

THE JAPS MARCH STEADILY ON


Yokohama. Nov. 4.-Advices received
here from the frontier show that there
has been heavy fighting in the country
north of Port Arthur. The dispatches
are brief and silent on some important
points. 1t appears that Field Marshal
Oyama divided his force While one
division landed on tic, coast of the pen
insua north Of Talien Wan, another d.
vision was detached win orders to
effect landing near Kin Chow and to
proceed thence and join the main body
OF the army. This operation was COM

tered no Chinese warships and the
transports reached Kayenl1o and disen-
parked the troops, guns, horses and
munitions in safety.
Kin Chow, which Is a walled town and
which was believed to Re held by large
garrison. was Immediately attacked
The outer defenses were carried by
the Japanese after few hours fight
ing. The Chinese made little further
resistance and the Japanese were soon
masters of the place. In the mean
time the Japanese fleet, which had con-
veyed the transports. opened a heavy
fire on fallen Wan and Kakuyo The
firing scarcely ceased for many hours
Covered by the fire frc.n the ships, tho
land forces attacked and captured
Talien Wan In brilliant fashion The
dispatch states that the losses were
heavy. They also mention that an i'm
portant naval engagement occurred
Saturday, but give no details.
Up to the time OF sending this dis
patch there has been no confirmation of

The principal portion of the Chinese
army fled toward Moukden and the

HOW HE BECAME COLONEL
The Story the pasco News Man Tells on
Himself.

+. Il. Eldridge, who guides the destinies
of the Pasco News, tells as good a story as
this on himself: 1t appears that he wears
the title of Colonel. Mr. Eldridge re-
lated to a friend of the East Oregonian
how he acquired that title. He went to
one of the Portland hotels and signed his
name on the register. The proprietor
came along, looked over the list of arri-
walls, and thought the Pasco News man
appeared like a suspicious character. He
therefore marked before the name the
letter, "col." to indicate to the clerk that
he was to collect from the journalist
and run no risks. A reporter scrutinized
the list, saw COL before Eldridge's
name and the next morning appeared a
personal mention of "Col. f. Il. Eldrldge
of Pasco WASH" being in the city.
