EXPECTS TO BE EXPELLED.
Pacific Coast Insurance Manager in
81 Pickle.

San Francisco, Aug. 1.-THE Chron-
icle says: George H. Turner, the
Pacific coast manager of the North
western Insurance company of Mil
waukee, Wis, expects to be expelled
from the Pacific Insurance union on
Tuesday next. He learned that his case
was to come up from Manager Still
man yesterday, and though not very
much surprised that his case was to be
taken up, thought that an official notice
in writing would not have been out of
place.
The reasons for his EXPULSION are four
in number. He is charged with paying
excess commissions, for writing in
surance at less than compact rates,
publishing the fact that he would not
obey the unions rules. and failing to
meet his pecuniary obliga tons. When
questioned about the matter yesterday
Mr.. Turner said: Yes, 1 believe I am
to be expelled, and if 1 am, will make
it hot for the union"
Mr.. Turner has always been some
what of a thorn in the compact ribs,
and the president of his company, Al
fred James, is an avowed out and out
anti-compact insurance man. The mat
ter was discussed at considerable
length by the underwriters Yesterday.
On Tuesday next formal notice will be
sent President James to replace Mr..
Turner and he will be allowed two
months in which to do so. Judging by
Mr. James former actions he is more
than likely TO take no notice of the
union and to tell Mr. Turner TO cut the
rates and get business

CLEVELAND AT HOME,
At Rest, Surrounded BY His Wife
and Babies.

Buzzards Bay, Mass, Aug. 17.-Presi-
dent Cleveland arrived at Gray Gables
today, and was affectionately greeted by
Mrs. Cleveland and the children. He ap-
peared to be in good health and de-
lighted 10 see his family. The lighthouse
tender, John Rogers, steamed into the
bay past Hog island, shortly after 9
o'clock. During the night a coal schooner
had appropriated the Gray Gables moor
lngs and the Rogers drifted idly down
toward Monument beach. Then there was
a slight delay, when she steamed back to
point opposite the Gables and anchored.
A few minutes later President Cleve-
land, accompanied by DR.. O'Reilly and
party put off in a boat and were sent
ashore at the Gray Gables landing az
1896.
Mrs. Cleveland and the children had
been signalled from the veranda of the
cottage from the time the tender first
appeared. and as the president stepped
ashore, they FASTENED to meet him. The
party then entered Gray Gables, where
breakfast was waiting.
At noon Mrs. Cleveland received a re-
said the president had improved in health
and was feeling quite we'll. He was
rather tired, and as he wanted rest and
absolute quiet had lain down for a short
time. He could not see anyone and would
not be interviewed. Mrs. Cleveland said
she had talked to the president very
little, and could not say what his plans
were. He would remain at home but a
few days, however, as important BUSH
ness would compel his return to Wash
ngtOn.

csc Patriotic society is the name of a
new organization which has already
branch establishments in Portland
Sacramento and Los Angeles. The OBJ
jec1 of the society is to collect funds
from the willing Japanese contributors
to be used in the war now in progress
between China and Japan. The society
of this city and Oakland has a commit
tee of thirty members, and its presi-
dent and treasurer is Ma Nebekra,
manager of the Yokohama Specie bank.
Mr.. Nebekra said:
I'VE japanese feel that we should do
what we can to help our country in its
war with China, and SO we called a
meeting and formed a society. The
committee having the collection of
funds in hand is composed of Japanese
in all positions of life. These gentle
men will collect the funds, accepting
anything from one dollar up from Jap
anese only. The money will be sent to
me and by me RENTED to the central
government. We do not propose to
specify the purposes to which the
money shall be put. We believe the
government will know how best to eX-
pend whatever we send. I have al
ready received about 500, though regu-
lar blanks and receipts will not be
ready before tomorrow morning.
eve have received subscriptions
from American merchants, but have
declined to devote them to war pur-
poses. While we appreciate this kind
ly feeling we deem it wiser to decline
such offers. We accept, however, if the
contributors wished to send the money
to the Red Cross society, that is to say,
the ambulance corps"

Judge Bellinger on Selling
Whisky to Indians.
BIG COSTS PILED
UP FOR NOTHING.
THE PUNISHMENT RARELY, IL
EVER, FILLED THE CRIME.
If White Men Sell Whisky to Poor
Lo, They Must Be Proceeded
Against By egular
Agents, Stool Pigeons and Trained
Witnesses Employed to Convict
Alleged Observation-Disclosures Has
become FarcicaI.

Portland, Or, Aug. 17.-Judge Bel
linger, of the United States district
court, has determined to put a stop to
the abuse of arresting white men for
selling liquor to Indians.
For many years deputy marshals in
remote parts of the state have made a
business of arresting and bringing to
this city, at heavy cost, all white men
found giving liquor to Indians. The
average cost to the government in each
case was about 5000, while the fine i'm
posed on the defendant was seldom
more than $40.
Recently, Judge Bellinger held that
Indians holding lands in severalty were
to be considered citizens and amenable
to state laws.
An information was filed against two
white men, charging them with selling
liquor to an Indian while a ward of the
United States, and under the charge of
a duly authorized Indian agent. This
Is new departure, so far as the charge
usually made is concerned, but the
assistant district attorney was not sue
cessful in having it accepted
Judge Bellinger refused to allow any
such information to be filed in his
court. He held that "if these cases
were of sufficient Importance the dis
trict attorney must proceed with them
by indictment. The business had be-
come farcical. If the cases were of
enough consequence as to require ac-
ton in the district court, there would
have to be such punishment to the Of
fender as will have a deterrent effect
on the commission of such crime. The
court does not feel authorized to i'm
pose such punishment, except when
there has been an Indictment by the
grand jury. Such is the practice in the
district of Washington, Idaho and Ne
vada, and there is no reason why the
same rule should not be observed mere
IF the cases are frivolous, they re-
quire but small punishment The
state authorities can take care of them
and the state law is more drastic than
the federal
The city of Pendleton, adjoining the
Umatilla Indian reservation has been
for many years the central point of

with it's agents, stool pigeons and pro-
fessional witnesses, all well trained in
their various parts. There were some
genuine cases, and this very fact was
excuse enough to extend the business

tons
Judge Bellinger's decision will cut off
fees from deputy marshals, United
States commissioners and other federal
officials.

! Washington, Aug. 1.-THE policy to
be pursued in advancing the principles
of bimetallism was outlined at today's
session of the American Bimetallic
league. Speeches were made by several
congressman and by delegates from
various states.
| Mr.. Bland characterized the silver
question as purely a practical one, and
urged that the political battles of the
future be fought on the proposition
that any change of basis must be put
! in allegiance until the full restoration
of silver is accomplished
! Representative Coffeen, of Wyoming,
referred to the money question as the
overshadowing issue before the coun-
try, and advocated more money as the
only relief for general distress and de-
preston. Restora ton of silver to all
rights and privileges it had at the
minis before the demonetiza ton act Of
/ 1873, he declared, was the first step to
be taken in all money forms.
| Mr.. Bryan, of Nebraska. also made
a short speech, advocating unity Of
action among bimetallists.
! A declaration was adopted recount
ing the repeal of the silver purchase
law and establishment of the single
] gold standard. which has been followed
by steadily increasing depression: that
gold has steadily increased in value:
industries are everywhere paraIyzed:
labor is unsteady and precarious: bust
ness unimproved and debtors bankrupt.
1t is asserted that there is no hope of
relief until the double standard of 16
TO 1 is restored, and that the money
question is the supreme issue before
the country. Voters are urged to make
this issue paramount to all other con-
slderatfons in the election OF state
Legislators, congressman and presi-
dent.
1t is recommended that a. convention
be held at some central point in both
the mining and agricultural states to
perfect an organization to work for
this end and that a committee of five

REBELLION OF THE KAFIRS.
1t Has Now Assumed Alarming Pro-
portions.

Pretoria, South Africa, Aug. 1.-THE re-
bellion of the Kafirs is assuming alarm
ing proportions. The Transvaal police
detachment which has been attempting
to relieve the garrison at Agatha has
been repulsed with serious loss. EN-
boldened by their success the Kafirs pur-
sued the retreating troops and attacked
the main column of Boer forces. The
Kafirs We're driven back but the advance
of the column was retarded.
From Boer settlements all along the
Lataba river come reports of severe
fighting between isolated parties of re-
treating Beers and Kafirs, who are burn
ing the Boer homesteads all along the
river. The Beers are fleeing before the
kafir advance, taking all their portable
property; but large quantities of provi-
sions and cattle have necessarily fallen
into the hands of the Kafirs. The latter
have murdered a number of Beers and
their wives and children and the fiercest
feeling of the Beers have been aroused
against the rebels.
In all the disturbed districts mail and
passenger coaches have been stopped,
the passengers killed, coaches looted and
destroyed and the mules stolen. Murchi-
son road is entirely closed. The Kafirs
are reported to have reached a strong
barricade across it at point where it
passes between two hills, and they are
said to have prepared to defend the
mails. The government is reinforcing its
troops as rapidly as possible, and it is
expected an advance in force will be
made upon the Kafirs today or tomor-
row.

Senator Aldrich brought up the ores-
ton Of Republican interference with
the selection of a Democrat on the
finance committee, when Senator Petit
grew stated that there was no need Of
discussion of the subject, as there were
eight Republicans who would agree to
it and it would result in breaking up
all party discipline in the Senate. That
matter was then dropped.
AS TO taxing action on the filling of
the vacancy, the general feeling was
that no party action was necessary.
No Further Tariff Legislation.
Ihe resolution of Senator Murphy
was discussed and it was decided that
the republicans would support it in
modlned form, which would not specify
the tariff legislation, but would state
that in view of the fact the session was
so near the end that it is impractical BILE
10 attempt to pass any contested legis-
lauon during the remainder of the seS-
sion, and that it is the duty of Con-
gress to adjourn as soon as possible.
1t is probable that if a vote can be had
upon this resolution, that it would Sc
cure enough Democratic votes to pass
The Republicans claim that any sep
arate tariff bill to which there is an
ODJecllOH VIII De DEBATED until II is
defeated by lack of a quorum, and
1t is useless to make any attempt to
secure the passage of any of those now
before the Senate
Some of the Republican senators pre-
sent expressed the opinion that in view
OF the position taken by Senator Hill
on the appointment to fill the vacancy
OF the financial committee it would be
a proper return for the Republican Sena-
tors to support any resolution that he
may offer to them in regard to the ap-
pointment, thinking it probable that he
might desire to secure the name of
some senator for that of Mr.. White.
When Mr.. Hill was apprised of this
action, he said that he should not at
tempt to substitute some one else, be-
cause he had no personal objection to
Mr.. White
Republican senators expressed the
opinion that the Murphy resolution,
amended, as they are willing to accept
will pass by majority Of ten or fifteen
The resolution will probably be amend
ed so as to strike out all reference to
Secretary Carlisle's letter and to put the
reason for no further legislation on the
ground that none is practicable, instead
of as the original resolution has it, that
none is desirable
Prominent conservative Democratic
senators were apprised after the caucus
adjourned of its action, and it is under
stood they acquiesce in the present
modification of the Murphy resolution.

THE TURF.
Records Broken at Terre Haute

Records Broken at Terre Haute.
Terre Haute, Ind, Aug. 17.-Three
new worlds records fly tonight over
the masthead of the Terre Haute race
track. The Baron Wilkes colt, Oak
land Baron, went the second heat in
the ESQ trot in 2:16, thus lowering the
worlds record made by Boreal on Mon
day one and a quarter seconds. He
had to fight for it with the good colt
Axworthy, by Axtell, the latter finish
ing but head behind.
In the free-for-all trot a mark was
hung that is likely to be shot at for
many long day. The track was just
right, and it was an ideal racing day.
Pixley was bad actor. and it took
dozen attempts to get the field away,
Ryland T two lengths back. The Ida
no gelding trailed to the half, where
Stewart began to drive the mare. He
had laid back too long, but even as it
was the gelding of uncertain breed did
the best half in LOBE. Sweet Little
Alix' finished well within herself in
2:06, the third quarter being done at
minute clip.
Ryland was a good second choice in
the second heat Some think he was
in form to do a mile in 2:05 or better.
Again he got away behind, but went
to battle from the half going the third
quarter in 20 seconds. Withal he
could not reach the mare and she fin
ished just as strong as before in 2:O6%.
The distance was waived in the last
heat, Monroe Salisbury instructing Nc
Dowell to drive AliX her best clip. This
time Ryland T went to a bad break
and there was nothing to rush the
mare in her supreme effort. She went
on her first quarter like a shot, at the
half in 1:04, the last half being done
lin one minute and three-quar-
ters of a second. The first and
last events of the card were the SEN
sations, the PIP pace, 2:15 pace and 2:15
the other performances, although the
trot witnessed another downfall for
the much-touted Azote. Monrone Sal
isbury will have Alix start her during
the races next month to beat the rec
ord held by Nancy Hanks.

BITTER TEMPERANCE FIGHT.

Joliet, ILL.,, Aug. lin the village of
Wilmington, on the Chicago and Alton
road, is now going on bitter fight
over the temperance question. Two
months ago the Rev. Anderson, Rev.
Father Noonan and the Rev. Mr.. Ir-
wing appeared together in a hall in be-
half of sobriety. The radicals were
offended because the Rev. Anderson
said there was no harm in taking a
glass of liquor and seemed to advocate
moderate drinking. Father Noonan
was quite strong in denunciation of the
drinking habit and counseled total alb
stinence. The young priest had a fall
ing out with Father O'Gara, elis SUPER
ior. The difficulty was of so serious
character that an appeal was taken by
Father Noonan direct to Rome.
Counter charges were also made and
Father Noonan stands suspended from
active work until decision IS reached
Among the charges brought against
him was appearing on the same plat
form with Protestant ministers.

THE TWO JOHNS.
Sullivan and BarIeycorn Tangled In
Again.


New York, Aug. 17.-John l.. Suri-
van, the man from Boston, strolled
through the city last night hand in
hand with his most intimate associate.
John Barleycorn. John l.. and his
friend made themselves heard and felt
at Terrace Garden. First, they took
seats in the cafe. John L. was recog-
nized. That pleased him. John +.
had money and he wanted to spend If.
lie wanted to buy liquor for everybody
present, and half a dozen walters were
only too happy to serve, until he be-
came so boisterOus that it was feared
his old fighting fever would compel
Manager Maisell to demonstrate with
him
The ex-champion cannot stand inter-
ference, so when Mr.. Maisen began. he
raised his big right arm. Mr.. Maisell
was loath to be smitten, hence he LET
fly his good arm, at the end Of which
there was good fist, upon one finger
OF which there was q large seal ring.
The blow landed squarely on the right
eye OF Sullivan, the ex-pugilist of the
world. and the ring made a cue from
which blood ran. With a below and
a roar John L. started to annihilate
Mr.. Maisell, but his friends held him
back. Then John went to his box and
saw the show, though with black eye.
