New York, Feb. 12.-Inspeetor Scharf
arraigned l6 Chinese before United States
Commissioner Shields. charged with be-
ing Illegally in this country. under sec
ton II. of the Chinese restriction act of
1884. Eight who had proper papers and
who swore they had been passed by the
custom authorities at Richford. VT, were
discharged. Eight who had no papers
We're held in $3.50. for examination before
Commissioner Shields. tomorrow.
Assistant District Attorney Kohler, who
represented the government. said that he
consented to the discharges for the rea-
son that the Cinnamon had been. after
arrest. discharged by the United States
commissioner at Richford. VT. and that
view his action. This is the legal aspect
of the case" said Mr.. Koher. though l
am convinced that none of the Cinnamon
have any right in the United States"
After the commissioner discharged
eight of the suspected Chinese. Inspector
Scharf took the remainder to the Chinese
Interpreter and had them tell their stories.
When these We're translated to the in
spectOr they We're in substance that the
relatives of the men paid from $11 to $3.50
to somebody in Montreal to secure their
admission to this country.
The way this is accomplished Inspector
Scharf describes as follows: Upon ar
rival at Montreal. the Cinnamon secured
the services of Il smuggler. who proeures
witnesses and fathers or other relatives
for them. Then they proceed to Richford
or ST. Adams, VT, where they surrender
themselves to the United States authori-
ties. The smuggler. false witnesses and
bogus relatives do the rest. There are
said to be now nearly 100 Cinnamon in
Richford Jail awaiting arrangement for
them of admission papers.
Inspector Scharf says that scores of
Cinnamon are getting into this country
through these methods. and they secure
immunity from deportation from this
city owing to the rule of law that gov
eminent authorities here cannot review
the decision of the United States COM
missioner who passes them at Richford.

IMITATION COFFEE.
The namo Not Fancisd BY Postum Cereal
Company. tss

Coffee drinkers may be interested t,
know the opinion of some competent
physicians in regard to the use Of
Postum, the grain drink, in place Of
coffee. Let it be understood that the
manufacturers do not decry the use o.
coffee by healthy persons, but there is
great army of intelligent men ant
women of the present day who canno,
stand the steady, daily poison of coffee
tobacco and whiskey without feeling
the effect in some serious bodily de-
rangement.
Dr. f. r. Cassidy, editor of the
Medical Argus" Minneapolis, Mimi.
writes, enclosing the money for a third
case, and is kind enough to add: u

gard to the use of coffee and tobacco
by Inconsistencies NERVOUS patients)
1 am using Postum every day and am
greatly pleased with It.
A great many people who are not
keenly sensitive in their coffee tastes
state that Postum tastes so much like
coffee that they do not notice the DIFF
ference when it is served at breakfast.
The makers do not claim. however,
that it has exactly the same taste as
the finest coffee.
1t has exactly the same color, and
is just as piquant and pungent in its
taste as the finest Mocha coffee, but
the taste is distinct and belongs to
Postum alone.

THE MARKETS.
Wall street Review.

New York, May 1s.-The improved tone
abroad was the salient influence on the
market, but Il was aided by various IA
vorable domestic factors in the situation.
There was In the tone OF the stock market
a reflected indifference to the possibility OF
action by the senate on the Cuban ques-
tion that might be unacceptable to Spain.
This was partly due to the belief preva-
lent In Wall street that the administra-
tion has determined upon conservative
policy on Cuba, but holders of securities
are also less inclined to timidity on ac-
count Of the agitation of the Cuban ques-
tion than was formerly the case. Per-
haps the restricted volume of the trading
was due In part to the Cuban discussion
In the senate, the total sales reaching only
about $4,000 shares. Although about the
half this amount was absorbed by the five
leading stocks, the smaller sales were bet
ter distributed through the list than for
some time past The total sales of stock
today were 132, 4l3 shares.

AN ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.
PittstOn Woman Tries TO Drown Her.
self in New York City.

Pittston, May 1S.-An Associated
Press dispatch was published in to-
days papers, dated New York, as fol-
lows: Kitty Joice, the 21-year-old
daughter Of Judge Joice, of Pittston,
Wilkes Barre, Pa, attempted suicide
by drowning in Central Park this
morning. She was prevented by a po-
liceman as she was preparing to throw
herself into the lake. Miss Joice told
a story of love in connection with
Jack Woods, the son of a wealthy man
Of Denver, Colorado. Woods brought
her to New York and established her
in fat where a child was born. In a
quarrel last night, Jack slapped Kitty's
face. Loves dream was over and the
attempted suicide followed. The girl
was held in default of $500 bonds"
There is no Judge Joice at Pittston.
Judge Lynch and Attorney e. A.
Lynch, of Wilkes Barre, both deny any
knowledge of the girl, and say they
have no relative Of her name or de-
scription. The New York Sun tele-
graphed their representative at titts-
ton about the matter and the latter
could learn of no such person. The
representative, however, believes the
woman to be Mrs. Kitty Joyce widow
of Peter Joyce, one of the victims OF
the Twin shaft disaster. The attempt
ed suicide answers her description, and
as Mrs. Joyce led a rather reckless
life since her husbands death, her rel
atives at Pittston believe 1t to be she
who attempted the rash act.
