STOCKTON, Cal, May 25.-Arrangements
have been made by the state committee III
lunacy to have five Japanese and about
eighty-five Chinese, now in the Stockton
State Hospital for the Insane, returned TO
their native countries.
Negotiations have been in progress for
some time with both the Chinese and Jap

ed a Willingness to take the afflicted ones
back to their native lands. The Japanese
will be taken on July % and the Chinese
will be shipped in the same month.
When the treaty was made with China IN
Cleveland's last administration an effort
was made to arrange for the deporfing OF
insane Chinese, but the movement was be-
gun too late, and the matter has hung fire
until the present time. The deportation
agreement extends to all the hospitals OF
the state.

DEMOCRATS WANT KILBOURNE.
" ith HcLenn's Aid He Can Get Nomi-

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
CLEVELAND, Ohio, May 25-John r.
Mclean is making the strongest kind of an
effort to control the state democratic con-
vention- His agents are at work every
where They are passing around the word
from Mclean that the delegates should be
un.nstructed- If Mclean should take up
Col KilbOurne OF Columbus the latter
would win easily If they conflict, the con-
test may take on a resemblance to the
present friendly rivalry among the repubii-
Can candidates.
Col James Kilbourne is the first Of the
candidates in the field with a strong or
ganlzatlCn, and he will get much of the
early crop Of delegates. One thing certain
Is that kilbourne is going To beat Lentz bv
a big majority in Franklin county The
lines Of the contest will not be definitely
formed until IL is learned whether Senator
Hanna or his foes controlled the republican
convention and whether Golden Rule
Jones would run on an Independent ticket
When those problems have been solved the
fight Will be on in earnest.

Mistake in ReViaed Statutes Regard
ing Presidcnti.I Electors.

DES MONIES, Iowa, May 25.-By a re-
markable accident the discovery has been
made that the legislature in 1897 in revising
the Iowa code unintentOually provided
that hereafter presidential electors shall be
chosen by the congressional districts in
stead of by the state al large. The political
economy class at Simpson College, In
dianola, in studying the method of electing
presidential electors found that the revised
statutes provide that each congressional
district shall elect one and the state as a
whole shall elect the others at large.
The law as it stands would probably give
the democratic party two and perhaps
three electors in the presidential election
of 1900. The next Legislature will undoubt-
edly restore the old law.

THE NEW THEATRE-TICKET BILL

News has already been published regarding the
bill introduced at Albany by Assembyman ware
entitled An act 20 prevent fraud in tho sale OF
theatre tickets" Mr. Ware is quoted as saying
THE bill provides that every owner or manager or
a theatre shall conspicuously post at his ticket
Offices his rates Of prices Any person In the en-
poy OF the owner or manager who charges more
than this sum will be guilty OF a misdemeanor II
tho bin becomes law. My purpose is 20 prevent
owners and managers from disposins OF their
tickets 10 agents who charge % cents and 20 cents
more for the benefit OF those responsible for fixing
the schedule rate OF prices"
The first OF these requirements would not accom-
pish much Nearly all the New-York theatres
perhaps ALL have scales OF prices posted beside tho
box-of7ce windows. The second IS the one that
will tell II either does 1t has perhaps never oech
legally settled whether or not the ticket seller Z
tho hotel is the agent Of tho manager OF ths
theatre but some managers are certainly not pre-
pared 10 deny that he Is. II he is. then the law
will become operative "a prevent his sellng uckets
az an advance on the x-ofiice prices Ano tnet
would be the end Of great business IN whlch
been charged that the managers derived share ot
proat from the sales OF tickets at the hotels ana
even from the sales on the sidewalk o. course
every manager strenuously denies that he does any
thing Of the kind although some admit that others
do There Is virtually no doubt that many man.

say that the public would gain Yet somehow
