VALUES OF MINES ARE
HARD TO DETERMINE
No Law to Force Statements, Says
the State Mineralogist, Who Is
Preparinq q Register.

The State Mineralogist is preparing Il
register of the mines and minerals OF the
State, with illustrations Of the mines,
names of superintendents and route
maps The register will contain much
valuable information, but 1t will not show
lust how much money has been dug out
Of the generous gOld-bearing earth OF
California Mr.. Jacobs, the secretary of
the State MineralOgist, states freely and
unreserVedly that this missing informa-
tion would do much to straighten out
rascalities practiced by Inscriptions
mine owners on innocent persons dis
posed to make Investments.
I'VE would like said he yesterday, TO
give the public statistics showing what
but the owners refuse to volunteer the
statements and we cannot force them to
do so. l believe an attempt was made
once to introduce legislation compelling
mine owners to give sworn annual state
ments. but the bill was defeated The
fact is that the absence of any regula-
tions in this matter is productive OF
frauds upon persons who are led TO be-
lieve that certain mines are profitable
investments when the properties have re-
ally been 'salted.' 1 think, however, that
this sort of trickery is confined to owners
of small mines, who make a business in
some instances of buying such claims and
selling them to unsuSpecting people.
The report about to be issued Dy the
State MineralOgist will be first published
in short bulletins by counties, and when
the series is completed the entire matter
will be comprised and issued in a single
volume.

treaty with China, which ratification was
never made"
By reason of thus decision Collectors of
Customs have diSregarded the act of 1888
and have worked under the provisions of
the Chinese exclusion act of 1882 and 1884
and the treaty of 1894
Under the acts and the treaty just men

allege that he. had a wife or parent in
that he had property here, or lat the sum
sorry notes were accepted by the Collector
as proof of the debt. Under the new rul-
ing the laborer must furnish proof that
he has been married for at least year
followed by continuous cohabitation, or
that his property or debts are bona tide
In the case of debts he must prove that
they are unascertained and unsettled and
promissory notes will be of no value as
proof. He must also make his app1ca-
tion a month prior to the date OF his de
parture. 1t is necessary also for the Col
tector to take the full description of the
applicant, retaining the description in his
own possession and giving on the certih-
cate simply the number of the descrlp-
ton.
Also If the applicant has remained more
than a year in China he must produce a
certificate from the American Consul at
the Chinese port of departure to the effect
that the applicant was detained over time

REVOLUTION IN THE
EXCLUSION PROCEDURE
TREASURY SOLICITOR O'CON-
NELL'S RULING.
Act of 1888 Declared to Be in Force
and Chinese Laborers Will Be
Handled More Vigorously.

Maurice D. O'ConneI. solicitor Of the
Treasury has notified Collector Jackson
of new ruling which will revolutionize
the procedure with regard TO the exclu-
sion of Chinese. Solicitor O'ConneIl holds
that the act of Congress Of September,
1888, is good so far as sections 5, 6, I, S, g.
10. Il, 13 and IA are concerned and that
those sections did not depend upon the
ratification of the treaty, therefore becon-
ing operative Immediately.
The first paragraph of the act Of Sep
tember, 1888, provides that from and after
the date of the exchange of the ratitca-
tions of the pending treaty between the
United States and China. signed on March
y, 1885. it should be unlawful for arr,
Chinese person or subject of China or of
anv other power to enter the United
States except as provided by the act.
On October 16 of the same year the
solicitor of the Treasury decided that
'the act never went into operation and
is of no binding force for the reason that

LEOPOLD HERINGHI SUED
BY HIS BROTHER EDWARD
Complaint Alleges That Plaintiff
Paid for Four Lots for Which the
Pawnbroker Holds Deeds

The differences between Leo Hertnghi
and the other members of his family
which were first made public about q
month ago have by no means been settled.
According to the brothers of the Stockton
street pawnbroker Leo has not only failed
to live up to his contract with his mother,
who mortgaged her home in order to start
him in business, but has also betrayed the
confidence of his brothers. Aaron is no
longer his business partner and now
comes Edward Heringhi with a tale Of
misplaced confidence, asking the assist
ance of the court to compel Leo to make
restitution of certain property which it is
alleged he is holding in trust and refuses
TO surrender.
Two suits were filed in the Superior
Court yesterday afternoon by Attorney NJ
H WaScerwitz, representing Edward
Heringhi, with the above object in view
The first suit alleges as a cause of com
plant that plaintiff in 1891 purchased a lot
in the University tract of NJ. McCann
but had the deed made out in the name
of Leo, because of his confidence IN the
latter and owing to the fact that he was
obliged by the nature of his business to
be away from the city q considerable por-
ton of the time His idea was that in
case he desired to sell the property Leo,
holding the same in his own name, could
attend to the matter without the neceS-
sity Of Edward making q trip to the city.
In June Of this year, the complaint al
leges. plaintiff demanded the return of the
property which demand was refused by
Leo. Now EDWARD asks tHat the court re-
store the property TO him and ahord such
additional relief as may be due him.
The other suit recites that Edward pur-
chased three lots Of F. NJ. Griswold and
William Nichol and wife in 1891 and had
the deeds made out in the name of his
brother for the same reasons stated
above the only difference being that Leo
afterward bought a half-interest in these
lots. Edward asks that his brother be
compelled to transfer a half-interest in
each Of the lots in question to him.
Attorney Wascerwttz says Leo does not
deny that Edward paid for the property
he persists in holding on to and he antici-
pates no difficulty in securing a judgment
Edward Heringhi has also instructed At
tOrney WascerwitZ to prepare papers in
a suit against Leo to recover $500, which
he claims to be due on money deposited
with the latter in his business as a
banker He claims that he originally de-
posted $500 but has drawn against it un-
ill but $500 remains due and that Leo now
claims that the money was loaned and
that the debt has been wiped out by the
statute of limitations.

Be Pneumonia or
Pleurisy.

The japanese steamship America Maru,
a sister ship of the Nippon Maru, arrived
in port yesterday afternoon and was I'M
mediately ordered into quarantine. AT
Yokohama two cases of bubonlc plague
caused the vessel to be detained several
days, and on July a Japanese appren-
tice was taken Ill with what has the
symptoms of pneumonia and pleurisy.
This latter patient is conValescent, but
his ailment is being made the subject or
an investigation by the local quarantine
completed the America Maru will be held

the case develop to be nothing more than
q disease of the lungs, the vessel Will IN
all probability dock very soon.
The America Maru left Hongkong on
June 13 and Kobe on June 2l Before ar
irving at Yokohama, on June %, two cases
of bubOniC plague developed, which caus-
ed the vessel to be placed in quarantine.
DR. Walker, the ships physician had the

arrived at the Hawaiian port, another
case of sickness was reported. a Japa-
nese apprentice was taken i'll and there
were some symptoms of the dreaded al
Fiction. The stop at Honolulu was short,
and on July 13 the ship commenced its
voyage to San francisco. During the trip
across the Pacific the japanese grew
better and has at the present time almost
recovered. When the ship touched Angel
Island last evening it was boarded by DR..
Kinyoun of the quarantine station, who
commenced an investigation OF the case.
At a late hour last evening he had come
to no positive conclusion. The physician
gave the following statement 10 the
press:
America Maru left Hongkong June 13; Kobe,
June q; Yokohama, June %. Two cases OF
plague were aboard and the vessel was placed
in quarantine at the latter place and distn-
