Two Cinnamon were arrested Monday
night Just as they landed at Salmon Bay
within few feet of the old cooper-shop
which has been the rendezvous of snug
glers for years. The prisoners admitted
they had been landed from a white sloop
which brought them from Victoria, but at
the same time presented certificates which
verified their residence in San Francisco.
Both the Celestials spoke good English
and vehemently proclaimed their right to
be in the United States. They claimed
they belonged in San Francisco, and that
the certificates in their possession were
issued to them by Collector Welburn. A
telegram to that official resulted in reply
that he had never issued the certificates
found on the Cinnamon, and if they had
any bearing his name they were forgeries.
Local customs officers believe new ring
has sprung up, with headquarters in Vic

watching to keep the illegal from landing.

Hotel Men convened in the Arlington
parlors to-day. President Lynch of Hotel
Florence, San Diego, in the chair.
A committee of fve-A. G. Billicke and
f. 0. johnson of Los Angeles, George w.
Lynch and Mr.. Babcock of San Diego and
&. w. Gaty of Santa Barbara--was APP
pointed to provide ways and means TO
entertain delegates to the National Asso-
citation of Hotel Men, which will convene
at some undetermined point in Southern
California next spring. Messrs. Billicke
and johnson were also added to the execu-
tive committee. 1t was voted to hold the
next semi-annual convention six months
hence at Riverside and Redlands.
An entertaining and instructive address
was given by NJ. M. Potter of the West
minister Hotel of Los Angeles on how to
conduct the rear of the house. e. w. Gaty
OF Arlington spoke forcibly upon hotel
advertising. This gentleman is a hearty
advocate OF judicious and liberal advertis-
ing, and pointed out the merits and
advantages to the hotel-keeper. Frank A.
Miller of Hotel Glenwood, Riverside.
addressed the convention upon the subject
OF how to conduct a tourist hotel. H. w.
Chase made telling speech upon the
much mooted subject. "Hotel Soap" and
how it should be used
AT the conclusion of the session, Presi-
dent Lynch gave detailed account of the
committees work before the National As
ISOLATION in the East. He sharply criti-
clzed Manager Thorn of the Palace Hotel
OF San francisco for arrogating to himself
al credit for legislation accomplished in
California for the hotel mems benefit,
claiming that while the hotel-keepers
south OF Tehachapi were slightly outnum-
bered by their brethren to the north, they
had been exceedingly active upon all these
questions. and had spent 81 for every 81
spent by the Northern Californians. Re
gardlng the reception to delegates to the
coming National Association convention,
he wanted to see Southern Californian
hotel men get down to work, and leave no
uncertainty regarding the manner of the
entertainment, for their committee had
made many pledges as to inequalities,
which must be carried out for their own
sakes and the sake of the State, which
could have no more valuable advertise
ment than that to be secured by making
friends of these visitors.
After adjournment, the members, in
tally-hos, coaches and carriages, visited
the Old Mission in Ell Monticello Valley,
the Mesa and the Boulevard. Tomorrow
they go to Ventura, where they will be the
guests of Mr.. and Mrs. Crank of Hotel
Rose
