and now that the lines of Hall and
Truman have joined those of Wholly,
the escape Of all the FiIipinos on the
peninsula is cut off.
Every ]precaution is being taken for

NOT AS CONTRACT LABORERS
to Land Mt san Francisco I'm
der Specific Conditions.

Washington, June 6.-Mr. Powder.
", commissioner of immigration, with
,he approval of the secretary of tho
treasury, has issued instructions to the
officials of his service at San Francisco
20 land the company of Filipino ac-
tors who have been detained there
some weeks pending a final determina-
ton OF the case.
In the course of his letter, Mr.. Pow
derly says that the persons who have
a contract with the Filipinos and who
were instrumental in bringing them to
this country assert that it was their in.
tcntion ito procure the services of na-
tives of the Philippine islands who
would be fair types of the people of
that race. That, in addition, they
should be competent to illustrate the
domestic life, habits and customs of
their countrymen and that they should
be actors of such recognized ability
as to enable them to faithfully por-
tray as actors, the scenes Il inci-
dents of life in the Philippines: to
sing the native songs and dance the
native dances OF the Filipinos and
further to illustrate the anne and
festivals which form Il part OF their
domestic life, and that under no cir
cumstances would they be allowed 10
perform II service in competition
with American labor
Continuing, Mr.. Powderly says:
The testimony in the case goes to
show that the appellants are actors,
and that their performance was wit
messed by one who testified to Pat
Tact. 1t is true that they follow other
occupations, but that is also true Of
mGny other wcli-known actors in the
United States. The point raised as to
their compensation is not material,
since there is no recognized rule 1r
standards by which managers of the
aters are governed in paying the sal
aries of actors"
Mr.. Powderly has secured Il pledZ,
from the persons bringing the com
pany over that they will execute 4
! new contract with the F%ilipinos which
will provide that their services shall
. be now only for the purpose of eN-
hlbiting the songs, dances. games and
! plays of the said islands; that they
will cause them to be supported main
tanned, clothed, fed, lodged and sup
piled with medical attention when II.
luired. so long as they remain in the
United States, and that they shall
not require them to do any other Ia
nor than above specified, and that they
shall be returned to their native coun-
Try at the cost and expense of the
contractors at the time specified in the
! original contract"

ARE NOT CONTRACT LABORERS.
The Filipino Actors Detained Mt San
Francisco VIII be Allowed
to Land.

Washington, June at las been
decided to allow the company n Fill
Pine actors detained at san Fran
cisco. to enter the United States for
the purpose of giving exhibitions. They
will be required, however, 10 furnish a
bond that they Will return to their
homes after the expiration OF their en-
gagement. This case has beca Il dill
cult one to decide, because Of the fact
that these Filip;nos came to thsis coun-
try under contract to give exhibitions.
1t will be held. however. that they are
not contract laborers within the mean
ing of the contract LABOR law, and
hence may be admitted under the con
ditions which the secretary Will i'm

June G.-There is no truth in the re-
port hat Dreyfus has embarked on
board the steamer Vile de Tangier.
The Sfax, which left here at ten
o'clock Sunday night TO take Dreyfus
on board, sailed quite unexpectedly.
1t was not until four o'clock in the af-
ternoon that her commander was noti-
fled to sail, and the cruiser left as
soon as she could get up steam and
take on board the necessary provisions.
The authorities of Cayenne foresaw
four days ago that the SfaX would
leave for Fort de France On her present
mission, and at two o'clock Sunday
afternoon the dispatch boat Goland,
stationed in the waters of French
Guiana. left Cayenne, the capital, for
Devils island, having on board the su-
p~erintcndent of the penitentiarv and
the commander of the marine artillery.

French government to officially notify
Dreyfus of the revision of his sentence.
