SAN FRANCISCO, May 3.-The period
within which Chinese residents of the
United States are required by law to
register, in order to avoid deportation,
expires at IL o'clock tonight, and all
Chinese coolies hereafter, who are with
out proper certificates of residence, will
be liable to arrest. The great mass of
Chinese in the San Francisco district
have complied with the law. The total
number OF registrations will be about
$4,000, which is within 5000 of the total
Chinese population of the district. A
large part of these 5000 come under the
head of "exempts," being merchants,
or other than laborers, and will suffer no
penalty, so that very few Chinese are
left who have not complied with the
law. Collector Welborn has not mapped
out his plan of campaign against these
few, but will await instructions from
Washington. A further appropriation
will be necessary to cover deportation
expenses.
SAN Diego, May 3.-The work Of
tOkiuhabiOA VI bh0 OhiA0ro WSu SOaa

tered, leaving but six or seven Chinese
in the county who have not availed
themselves OF the opportunity.

nese registered. and 397 were recorded
in Riverside couaty, making total Of
1854 in the three counties.

this county only eight registered. These,
with the six or seven men, will probably
soon be deported.
SANTA BARBARA, May 3.-The last day
OF Chinese registration saw only six ap-
plicants for certificates, most of the
Mongolians being In at an es-aiar date.
For the three counties, Santa Barbara,
Collectors Franklin and Baumgardner

are in Santa Barbara city and the i'm

WEARY OF LIFE.

A eiok CIgar-Maker Commits Suici de at
Bakersfield.
BAKERSFIELD, May 3.-Geerge Fleisch-
mann committed suicide this afternoon
by blowing out his brains with pistol.
He was employed in the cigar factory of
@. J. Raaz and was formerly manager of
large cigar factory in San Francisco.
1t was premeditated suicide as he left
letters stating that he was suffering from
consumption, what he was going to do
and appointing John Breen executor of
his estate. Nobody knows what his es-
tate consists of more than that he was
member of the International Cigar
Makers union and that his beneficiary
will receive $3.50. He was 81 years OF
age and was born in Baltimore.

LOCAL REGISTRATION.
There Was No Rush ut the VIA dup
RArind-

There Was No Rush ut the Win dup of
the Period.
The registration in this section was
first in charge of E. E. Maxwell, deputy
internal revenue collector. About jan
uary 18th he was relieved from this
part of the work by L. M. Noah of San
Luis Obiepo, who was appointed by
Collector Welborn under the new re-
gime. This section is in the first dis
trict, seventh division, which is COM
posed of San Luis Obispo, Santa Bar
bara, Ventura, Los Angeles and Orange
counties. The head Offices were at the
corner of Broadway and First street.
where Mr.. Noah has constantly had
seven deputies bard at work. He had
one deputy in Ventura county and an.
other in Santa Barbara to better facili-
tate the registration.
While quite a number of Chinese
we're registered before January lst, the
real rush did not take place until
shortly after the opening OF the
present year. During Mr.. Noah's in
cumbency, 5645 certificates were
issued, which were divided az follows:
January, 338; February, 1880; March,
2677; April, 1900. Three days in May
are not reported yet, but the returns
will probably not show more than sew
eral hundred more.
Mr.. Maxwell registered 1853 Chinese.
1t was decided, however, to do
away with the two white witnesses and
have the photograph and two Chinese
witnesses instead. This made Mr.. Max
wells registration void. 80 these
Chinese were re-registered by Mr.. Noah.
The figures given by Mr.. Noah are
therefore for the total registration in the
division up to today.
There was hardly any one registered
yesterday at the local Office. The depu-
ties stretched their weary lengths in the
chairs, waiting for the hnal rush, which
did not come. The quiet was disturbed
about twice during the day, however.
Once dozen Chinese hurried exoitedly
into the room and after jabbering for 10
minutes, produced one lone, meek indi-
vidual who was candidate for rsgistra-
ton. All Of the crowd swore that he
had been here long enough to be en-
titled toe certificate, which WAS issued
to him.
The other excitement was caused by
the advent Of Ching Wing. who was &C.
companied By Chow Noon. Ching de-
elared that while Chow had already
been registered onee he must have an
other certificate. bsseems that Chew

DENVER CATHOLICS.

Indignation Meetings on Account OF the
Susponston of Father Malone.
DENVER, May 3.-Indignstion meet
ings were held today in every Catholic
parish in the city on account of the sus-
pension of Rev. I. H. Malone, pastor of
st. Joseph church, by Bishop Matse. A
petition TO Mgr. Satolli to reinstate
Father Malone is in circulation, and the
friends of the deposed priest claim ii
will be signed by nearly all the Catho-
lies in the diocese. Should the friendly
suit brought against Father Mrlone to
disprove the bishops charge of short
age in his accounts be dismissed on the
bishops claim that it was not author
iced by the trustees who figure as plain
tiffs, another euit will be instituted by a
committee appointed by the parish for
that purpose.

SAN DIEGO. May 3.-3old placers OF
considerable richness have bsen discov-
cred in the interior of the peninsula,
according to Luis, Yaqui indian who
arrived at San Quintin few days ago
from the new camp. He said the entire
Mexican population of Rosario had gone
to the new diggings, where they were
taking out from half an ounce to an
ounce OF gold daily per man. The
placers are located eight miles east OF
the volcano springs. at place called
the Tulas. and about 100 miles southeast
OF San Quintin. There is plenty OF water
at the camp, coming from the soda
springs. Parties from San Quintin
have gone to the new diggings.

CREDITORS DIsMaYED,

Debts Of thu city Of San Francisco Ju-
diclAliy It-pudIatod.
SAN Francisco, May 3.-Judge D. J.
Murphy rendered a decision today that
will epread CONSERVATION in the ranks
OF the city's numerous creditors. He
decided fer the city, as defendant, in a
suit brought by D. S. Weaver for labor
performed and material supplied for the
city's engine houses during the month
of December, 1892. The claim was CON
tented on the ground that when tie
present board OF supervisors came into
Office they found Themselves in debt at
the outset. The law prohibits the pay
ment OF debts contracted in one fiscal
year out of the income of another, and
as there were no funds with which to
pay Weaver's and other claims, amount
ing in all to something over $500 600, it
WAS shown that the supreme court had
already rendered decision upon the
subject in a case that had been tried
in Santa Barbara. This decision
practically decided the present
case, as Judge Murphy, in giving
judgment for the city, stated that while
he saw that Weaver's claim was just
and would have preferred to decide in
his favor, yet the Santa Barbara decis-
ion was conclusive and the law on the
subject made only too plain.
This ruling will no doubt govern all
the suits now pending against the city.
The Spring Valley Water company will
lose $34,177, while the neat largest cred
itors are the Pacific Telephone and Pa
cifc Gas Improvement companies, with
claims for $4,000 and $7757, respectively.
The city's credit has been anything
but good lately, and several orders from
the board of supervisors have been re-
fused by contractors and wholesale
houses, but now that this all-important
decision has been rendered, the supplies
are likely to be still further cut short.

CARSON, New, May 3.-W. E. Hazen,

night by shooting himself in the right
temple with pistol, ct the Arlington

premeditated for some time, but he hes

CATERS COURTESAN.
ON HER ACCOUNT HE COMMITS
A DOUBLE MURDER.

DEBORAH, Ia, Sept 4.--John IL. Cater
was lodged In the Winnispek county
jail yesterday suspected Of the double
murder of his wife, Mary Cater, and
George Wemett, at Burrak. Cater for
some time past, has been keeping COM
pany with a woman of loose character.
This was known 70 Mrs. Cater who
naturally resented 1t. Wemett was
on quite friendly terms with her and
was paying some attention to her old
est daughter. Caters intimacy with
/. the woman was the talk OF the town.
and the theory advance is that Mrs.
Cater asked Wemett TO watch him and
that Wemett had caught Cater and the
woman together. which SO enraged him
that he murdered Wemett. 1t Is
thought that Mrs. Cater must have met
her husband after he had murdered
Wemett and he, knowing that she
would appear against him IL he was
arrested, killed her also. Cater may be
lynched,
