CHINESE SLAVES IMPORTED.
Government Officials Looking for
the Dealers.

Government Officials Looking for
the Dealers.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept 20, 1S95.-Local
government officers are after Little Pete"
and Loong Nam, the notorious Chinatown
slave dealers.
Forming a partnership they arranged to
import about $50 men and women for the
Atlanta Exposition. The women. of whom
there are thirty-four, were purchased in
Hong Kong for $500 each. As Pete was
somewhat afraid of the government officers
here, he arranged to introduce the slaves
through Ogdensburg, n. Y. The Chinese
were landed in Victoria about month ago
and at once started for New York.
When the officers here learned of Pete's
plans they Immediately notified the officials
in Washington, and the Secretary of the
Treasury telegraphed the Collector of Gus
toms at Og6ensburg, N. Y. to refuse adj
mittance to Little Pete's charges.
That official however, did not pay much
heed to the order and passed the mongols.
Pete at once hurried his charges to Atlanta,
and a telegram reached here announces their
arrival at the Exposition Tuesday.
When the Secretary OF the Treasury
learned of the action of the Chinatown
trickster he sent orders to the Federal Off
GERS here to secure all evidence possible
against Little Pete and Loong Nam. At the
same time instructions were sent to the
United States Attorney to call the matter to
the attention of the Grand Jury as soon as
possible.
The charge made before the Grand Jury
is that Pete and Looug Nam conspired in
this city to land Chinese III the United States
contrary to law The penalty for this of
fense is long term of Imprisonment and
finally deportation.
The collector expects to start his inspector
for Atlanta about October |. The man
would be sent before that but it is impossi-
bic to secure the services of an inspector at
present, as the entire force is occupied with
pressing business here.

TRENTON, Sept. 90 Coroner
Bowers and County Physician Cantwell
are 'endeayoring to clear up the mystery
surrounding the death of Allen Dale,
whose dead body was found yesterday
in the canal near the bridge at Prince
ton.
Mr.. Dale who was 62 years old, had
been in the employ of the Pennsylvania
Railroad since 1871. When the body
was taken from the water Coroner Bow
ers had it removed to the morgue in
Trenton.
There was no money or valuables on
the body but some papers were found
which led to his Identification.
Coroner Bowers telegraphed to the
oce of the Pennsylvania Railroad, in
Jersey City, and Civil Engineer Cooper
was sent to Trenton to look at the body
He identified the body as that of Dale.
He said that Dale was employed as a
clerk in the Civil Engineers Department
of the Pennsylvania Railroad, and had
headquarters at Reading, Pa.
Mr.. Cooper also said that Dale was
rather eccentric. He had been graduated
from Princeton College in 1854 He left
the employ Of the Pennsylvania Company
in 1883 and remained away for year.
He subsequently went back to his old
place as a clerk in the Civil Engineers
Department.
as to when Dale was last seen alive:
He never knew him to be i'll the habit of
carrying large sums of money, and was
not aware that he had any enemies.
Engineer Cooper could not account for
Dale being in Princeton, unless he went

associates

animation of the body. The County Ply
sician said he was led to believe from

was dead before he got into the canal.
This would indicate foul play. There
were no marks, however. on the body
to indicate that the man had been as
saulted.

Before the result could be announced
a scene ensued which it is hard to de-

up to the stage, and all began speaking

throughout the city are literally covered
with decorations, and the streets are
thronged with people eager to witness
+be ceremonies of this. the principal day
of the series of celebrations commem-
orative of the entry of the Italian troops
into Rome. 1t is noticeable, however,
that only the Embassies of the United

of the other Embassies and Legations
abstain from any participation in the
fetes whatever.
The Pone went last evening to st. Pc

His Holiness will perform similar act
this evening and again tomorrow.
The chief event of the day was the un-

presence of $4,000 wildly enthusiastic
persons. King Humbert and the royal
family, all of the court dignitaries and
Cabinet Ministers. and numerous deputa-

with banners and bands of music. occu-
pied the place OF honor.
Premier Crispi delivered an oratfon

foreign tyranny. He declared that
there was no truth in the allegations
that these fetes were intended to be of,
fensive to the Pope. who, as the head
of the Church, he said, needed no ar
tillery to secure it's existence. If Chris
tianity could conquer the world without
the aid of arms it was difficult to IN
derstand why the Vatican should de-

else it's functions.
In no State, he declared, had the
Church so much liberty as in Italy. and
Catholics ought to be grateful for this
to those who had striven to unity Italy
by making Rome its capital, Signor
Crispi concluded by saying that if des-
loved, they should violate the laws or
vituperate the country their punish
ment would be prompt and inexorable.
