CHINESE FOB ATLANTA.
Their Road to the Exposition Not to b
Eatirely smooth.


WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.-With refer
ence to the dispatches from San Francisco
in relation to Chinese admitted as partici-
pants in the Atlanta Exposition, it is stated
that the Treasury Department, on being
advised that 200 or more Chinese were en-
route to Ogdensburg, via Canada, to attend
the Atlanta Exposition, notified the Col
lector of Customs at Ogdensberg TO closely
examine each applicant, and to reject all
who were unable to show conclusively that
they were bona fide employees of the per-
sons holding the concessions for the
Chinese exhibit at the Atlanta Exposition.
Acting under these instructions, a strict
investigation was made by the Collector,
who reported that satisfactory evidence
was shown by each of the Chinese in ques-
ton of right under the joint resolution OF
Congress to attend the exposition.

and the prizes of more value than on any
day of the meet. The prizes, which have
all consisted of diamond studs, have been
given to the winners Immediately after
each race, and this has pleased them very
much. WILDER Edwards will leave Napa
with a good share of the diamonds, he
having received first or second IN every
race be entered.
Most of the wheelmen will leave Napa
tomorrow. Foster, Jones, Nissen, Cushing
Smith and several other riders will stay
over until Monday night, as Foster viii

Old Doodle Beaten by Iago in the I'm
finished Trot.
STOCKTON. CAL, Sept. 81. - To-day
closed the seasons racing at Agricultural
Park. The attendance was good, but the
track was slow on account OF the heavy
wind.
Including the unfinished 2:15 trot three
favorites Won. AS predicted Iago won
from Doodle. Time, 2:15H.
In the half-mile dash for two-year-old
maidens Jim Bozeman finished first, but
he was disqualified by the judges for foul
ing Nevere on the stretch and Nevere was
gwen the race. Lady Gray, the favorite,
came In third. There was much dlssatls-
faction expressed at this decision OF the
judges.
The 2:15 class pace for purse of $1,000
was declared off on account of the fullness
of the card
In the butchers race Louis Gerlach's
sorrel gelding won both heats in 2:5O and
ZAP respectively. Charles Fink Bohner's
Genera! and Fren Sievers' Frank were
distanced in the second heat. The purse
was for $150.
The racing end of this years fair was not
nearly up to the average. The attendance
at the track was extremely light, although
betting was brisk. The State appropria-
ton OF $780, which was not forthcoming
to the association this year, handicapped
things very materially. 1t is thought that
the gate receipts will not much more than
pay the purses and expenses.

their allegiance to our lord the sKing we
would treat them as brothers.
They replied that we had but Just en-
tered their country, and already we had
asked them to renounce the worship of
their gods. This they could not do, but
they would give their obedience to our
King with pleasure.
After this we recommended our march,
and so many were the people who came
out to see us that the streets and roofs of
the houses were covered with people.
They took us to some large houses which
Accommodated us all and our friends of
Cempoal and the Tlascalans who carried
our artillery and baggage.
The Cholulans had received us with ap-
parent good faith, but it seemed that
Montezuma had sent message to his
ambassadors who were with us to treat
with the Cholulans for our destruction,
saying that he would send body of 90
900 men to cooperate with them, advising
them to make war on us by day and
night and to take as many of us as was
possible prisoners and send us alive to
Mexico.
The warriors whom Montezuma spoke
OF were in ambush about half-league
from the city and some were already hid
den within Cholula and they had made
holes in the streets and placed obstruc-
tions so that our horses could not oper
ate against them. But to return to my
story: The first two days we were in
Cholula the Caciques and Papas treated
us well and sent us food, but the third
day they diu not come to see us and sent
us no food and only Il few Indians came
to see us and they kept apart and did not
come near us and they smiled cunningly
as though mocking us. Cortes tnen told
Dona Marina to tell the ambassadors of
Montezuma who were still with us to Or
der the Cacques to bring us food, but
they only brought us wood and water,
the old men who brought it saying that
they had no more maize.

that the Romans never took such risks as
we have you say the truth, and with the
help of God, the histories that may be
written of our achievemnt will say much
more of what we shall do in the future
than of what we have done in the past.
SO that, gentlemen, it is not well consid-
cred to go back one step, for if these peo-
pie see us retreat they and even the very
stones Will rise against us, and in
stead of gods as they now consider us,
they will look upon us as towards.
so it is gentlemen, bad here and worse
there. We are much better where we are
now, for we have plenty of provisions,
sometimes chickens and other times dogs,
thanks be to God, and we have plenty to
eat, and would be well off if we only had
salt and clothes to cover us.
And as to what you say about those
who have died since we lett Cuba, and
that we are now few and all sick and
wounded, God has given us strength SO
far, and war is a thing that costs the
lives OF both men and horses, and we did
not come here to live at ease, but to fight
whenever it was necessary"

nothing but our souls for the God who

travail unto death in the service of God and
the King, cried Forward in lucky
hour.
When Ncotenga the elder and Mas
eescasi saw that we intended to march at
once toward Mexico, it weighed on their
souls and they strongly advised Cortes not
to go. They told him not to trust Monte
yuma nor any other Mexican; to place no
confidence in his apparent humility
nor his courage, nor his presents. nor
any of his offers of services for he was "a
hypocrite and traitor and some day he
would turn on us and take back every
thing he had given, and that we would

CHAPTER XVIII
OF the Plan Which MOntezuma Had Concerted
With the People of Cholula to Destroy Us,
and of How They Offered Seven Indians to
Their War God to Give Them the Victory

At this time there came other ambassa-
dors of Montezuma who joined those
already with us and without any of the
customary ceremony told us that their
lord Montezuma sent them to tell us not
to come to Mexico, as he had nothing to
give us to eat, and to return Immediately
to Mexico with our reply.
Cortes considered this as bad omen of
our success but replied mildly that he
wondered that great lord like Montezu-
ma would change his mind so often and
that he hoped they would not return
that day but would wait until the next
when he himself would go with them to
see Montezuma and receive his COM
mands; to which the ambassadors re
piled that they would wait until next day
Cortes then called us together and
SAID to us: Everything about these
people looks suspicious; be therefore on
the alert lest they practice some treach-
cry"
At the same time he sent for the chief
Cacique of Cholula or some of the princi-
pal men of the town to come to him but
they replied that the Cacique was sick
and the others could not come.
The herald., 1895-03-24

Cortes then told them to bring two of
the Papas from the neighboring Gu, bu t
to use no force We then brought two
of the Papas to where he was and he
gave to each one a chalchin Ca pre-
cious stone like the emerald and
very much esteemed by the Aztecs }
and he asked them gently why the
Caciques and Papas and principal men
were frightened that he had invited them
to come to see him and they would not
come. 1t seems that one of the Papas was
a sort of Bishop, and after making rev.
erence he replied that the Papas were not
afraid to come, as they were not afraid of
us, and as for the Caciques, he would go
and speak with them and after that thev
would come.
Cortes told him to go, while his COM
panion would stay with us until he re-
turned. The Papa then went and brought
the Caciques and principal men to the
headquarters of Cortes who asked them
through our interpreter why they were
afraid of us, and why they did not send
us food; and he told them that if they did
not desire us to remain in their city we
would leave the next morning for Mexico
to see Montezuma, and that he wanted
them to have tamemes ready next day to
carry our luggage and artillery. The
Cacique was confused and did not seem to
know what to say, but finally told him
he would search for food but that Mon
tezuma had ordered them to give us none
and did not want us to go any nearer to
Mexico.
While this conversation was taking
place there came secretly to Cortes three of
our friends OF Cempoal who said that
they had discovered holes in the sire ct
covered over lightly, and that they had
removed the covering from one and found
it full of sharp stakes, and that the roofs
of the houses were piled with stones, and
that barricades had been put across the
principal streets.

CHAPTER XVII
How We Went to the Great City OF ChoIula
and of the Grand Reception We Received
There, and of How ChOIuIans Refused to
Allow the TIascalans TO Enter Their City

! So early one morning we commenced
our march to Choluu in our usual order
Tor i'll fact we were expecting some trouble
| and were therefore mo-e than ordinarily
careful. The first night we camped on the
| banks of u small river within short
league of Cholula the Caciques of which
city sent some Of their principal men to
welcome us to their territory. They
brought us provisions. consisting of
chickens and maize bread and they said
that in the morning all the Caciques and
Papas would come to receive us and that
we should not take it il. because they had
not come at once that night. Cortes re-
piled through Dona Marina that he was
grateful both for the provisions they
had brought and for the good will they
showed toward us. That night we y aced
good watches around our camp; and very
| carly next morning we again commenced
our march toward Cholula and when we
came near the city the Caciques and many
other Indians and Papas came out to re-
ceive us, all dressed in cotton clothes, the
majority wearing sort of Moorish gown.
The Papas carried braziers with incense.
which they offered to our Captain and
tDOSc around MIN.
When they saw the Tlascalans who were
with us they told Dona Marina to say to
Cortes that it was not right TO permit so
many of their enemies to enter the city
with arms in their hands. When Cortes
heard this he orderal halt and said !:
1T seems to me, gentlemen, that before
we enter this city we had better test these
Caciques and Papas, since they are al
ready murmuring against our friends of
Tlascala. and indeed hey have some rea-
son in what they say. We had better.
therefore. tell them why we have come
here and receive their obedience on be-
half OF his Majesty. for the Tlascalans
have told us many times that they are
treacherous and quarrelsome.
He then told DOM Marina to tell the
Caciques and Papas to come where he
was; and presently there came three Of
the principal men and two Papas. who
said: "Malinche, you must pardon us be-
cause we did not go to rlascala to see you
and bring you food, for it is not for lack
of good will. but because the Tlascalans
are our enemies and have already told you
many evil things both of us and our great
lord Montezuma and as if it was not
enough that they should say those things
now they have the hardihood, under
your protection, to come in arms to our
city What we ask of you is either to
send them back to their own country or
let them remain outside the city"
Cortes then told Pedro de Alvarado and
