GEN. OTIS AND THE CHINESE.
No Objection on His Part to the Land
 ing of TOO of Them

No Objection on His Part to the Land ing of TOO of Them Washington, Sept. 25.--Secretary Root has received a cable message from Gen. Otis regarding the Chinese situation in the Philippines. He says that the shipload Of 700 can be landed without any serious interference with military operations. General Otis discusses at considerable length the subject of Chi neee in the Philippine Islands, and the despatch was referred to the state de- partment, where it was made the sub ject of a conference between Acting Secretary Hill and the Chinese minis ter.
 A settlement of the general issue be- tween the two governments respecting the admission of the Chinese to the Philippines waa not attained through this particular incident, which was con- sidered and disposed of solely on it's own merits in accordance with General Otis recommendation. The seven Chi nese will be landed, but without recog nizing the right of the Chinese govern ment to demand this. On the other hand the Chinese government while permitting the men to land, does not in any manner concede our right to apply the Chinese exclusion law to the Philip pines, and stands by the principles enuncated in the formal protest which was made last week by the Chinese minister here.

WELL-GUARDED MATCHES.

The matchless man who looks about him
for light finds his state more embarrass-
ing every day. The latest form of vexation
he has to encounter is found in places sup
posed to take every means to make him
comfortable. Many a man who starts to
smoke now in a music hall or cafe finds
that no matchsafe is: placed on the table at
which he sits. 1t is only by calling the
waiter that a box is to be had. Then it is
not put on the table and left there. The
greasy, wellworn box produced from the
attendants pocket returns to it after one
match has been lighted and the guest is
satisfied. The formality of the proceedings
is a little tiresome to the cigarette smokers
or the man who is in the habit OF letting his
cigar go out. He has to appeal to the wal
ter too frequently; but in that way he helps
the new institution to accomplish its pur-
pose.

the walters to cling to the privilege of re-
