THE CHINESE SMUGGLERS,
Records of San Francisco Custom House
Have Been Falsified.

San Francisco, April 6.-Customs
Collector Wise has discovered the work
of some traitor in his camp. He learn
ed today that some one in the custom
house has been classifying records there
in order to facilitate the smuggling of
Chinese. A few weeks ago a Chinaman
arrived here, presented his registration
papers, which appeared to be all right,
and was admitted without much ques-
tioning. The other day another CHI
nese appeared and sought admission OF
certificte bearing the same name. In
vestigation proved that the second
Chinaman was the one entitled to land,
and that the first one had been snug
gled in. The Chinese first landed Was
apprehended, and is now under arrest.
A close inspection of the custom house
records shows that the photograph of
the original Chinese had been taken
from the book, and that of the Chinese
who fraudulently landed entered substi-
tuted. The certificate was completely
changed. No arrests have been made.

WILL NEVER SUBMIT
Venezuela Will, if Necessary,
Resort to Force.
MOST ANYTHING BUT DISHONOR
The People Ready to See Their Homes
and Their Cities DesOlated and
Laid in Ashes.

Washington, April 1T is stated
by persons i'll position to speak with
authority that as soon as Venezuela is
convinced that Great Britain has final
lv decided not to arbitrate or settle the
boundary dispute, as suggested by the
United States through Ambassador Bay
ard, the Southern republic will regret
fully but resolutely resort to what she
regards as her only course-a resort to
force. 1t is declared that her people
are ready to see their homes and their
cities desolated and laid III ashes rather
than submit to what they regard as
national dishOnOr. 1t is said that the
contention with Great Britain is not SO
much one of territory as one of senti-
ment. So firmly impressed have the
people become with this that the Opin-
ion is expressed that they would rather
see the country go out of existence than
pass into practical control of foreign
hands. A strong feeling exists in the
Venezuelan government that the United
States will not stand idly by if resort
to force is made.
Great Britain in declining the sugges-
ton Of the United States for the set
Element of the trouble is substantially
as follows:
First-Great Britain takes the posi-
ton that the question of arbitration
was once before proposed by Venezuela.
At that time the foreign Office gave
the subject careful attention and sub
mitted a reply embOdying proposition
to arbitrate certain definite subjects of
controversy. To this proposition Vene-
zuela has never made a reply, either &C
cepting or rejecting the proposed basis
of arbitration. Under the circum-
stances it is not desirable to proceed to
a second proposal of arbitration while
the first remains unanswered.
Second-In any event, there are GER
tain portions of that territory to which
Venezuela lays claims, which under no
circumstances will be made the subject
of arbitration, as they are recognized
portions of the British domain, and are
not therefore subjects on which the aid
of arbitration could be invoked.
Third-The subject matter is one be-
tween Great Britain and Venezuela, SO
that the good offices of the United
States are not regarded as essential to a
settlement, for it is not understood that
the United States has assumed a pro-
tectorate over Venezuela or her interest
more than that of a friendly government.

THIS is AN APOLOGY.
DIR. Lansing Regrets Saying Mr.. Cleye-
land Was Drunk.

Boston, April 10.-The Rev. DIR.
Isaac J. Lansing, pastor of the Pearl
street church in this city in an address
before the New England Methodist con-
ference at Salem last week accused
President Cleveland of intemperance.
Tonight he declared himself as follows
on the subject:
INV illusions made in a temperance
address at Salem Thursday, April 4, as
to the drinking habits of the president
of the United States were based partly
on common report and partly on testl-
mony of eye-witnesses, from various
and independent sources which be-
lieyed to be wholly reliable; | had been
informed that the president had been
seen on different occasions, and i'll the
presence of many persons, III an lntoxl-
Gated condition. From the circum-
stantial and detailed character of these
statements l supposed there was no
doubt as to the facts stated. l there
fore made this allusiOn as matter OF
common report, basing my statements
of personal, and as l supposed credible
witnesses. The names of these wit
nesses | cannot with propriety reveal,
since, sharing their knowledge III COM
mon with many others, they might
Justly shrink from being singled out
and called to verify that which not only
they but others, equally with them
selves, had a clear proof of. | must
therefore say that if my statement re-
producing such testimony is not in
harmony with the facts, regret hav-
ing made it. l could have neither de-
sire nor motive for saying anything un-
kind or uncharitable of the president
or of any person whatever. The case
being one of conficst of testimony be-
tween witnesses of equal credibility, l
cannot decide which is correct, and
since | have no personal knowledge
apart from the testimony, l withdraw
the statement and tender apologize
and sincere regrets to the president of
the United States and to the pubic. "

to overlap each other, and it will be the
duty of Captain Morse TO solve this
problem for the government.
