about midday of September 2 and
$50 strong, to the Chinese
quarter of the town. Here a long line
of men armed with rifles was thrown
out in front of the houses occupied by
the Chinese. and a fusilade began as
the occupants sought TO make their
way to places of safety.

Many of the Chinamen were shot

homes and either shot or cut to pieces
an dothers escaped to the woods. The
houses being cleared, the mob fired
every availa BILE building. and the en-
tire Chinese section was burned to the
ground. The firing of the houses began
q little before nig'htfall and lasted until
midnight. Those who Witnessed the

Again. in 1888, the government was
called upon to pay large sum for
Chinese outrages. This was for riots
in 1885 very similar to the Rock Springs
affair. but covering a wider area. The
white laborer OF the coast states had
determined 10 drive out the Chinese
and secret organizations were formed
through California, Washington, Ore
gon and Wyoming with view to ex-
terminating the Mongolians. A reign
of terror was inaugurated. and the
state department was soon deluged
with pleas to protect Chinese at various
points.
All through the interior of California
the mobs were at work and the Chin

Pathetic Incident in Connection With
Expedition TO South Pole.

south role.
The steamship Coya. which reached New
York yesterday. brought some interesting
news from Capt de Gerlache's antarctic
exploring expedition.
A member of the expedition is Frederick
A. Cook of Brooklyn. Capt. Thomas of the
Coya soon made his acquaintance, and
brought a letter from DR.. Cook addressed
to Miss Anna E. Forbes of Brooklyn, to
whom he was engaged to be married. Miss
Forbes died on Easter Sunday a year ago.
The Coya, which is from CHILEAN ports,
called at Punta Arenas, trading settle
ment in the Magellan Straits, during her
| homeward journey. and there fell in with
the Belgica, which had arrived two DAYS
before
Capt. Thomas learned from Dr. Cook
that the Belgica had been fast in an Ice
pack for year, that the expedition had
been shrouded in darkness for seventy days
and that it had penetrated as far south as
the SEVENTEEN parallel. During the i'm
prisoEment of the bark penguins and seals
formed part of the diet of the explorers.
DIR. Cook told me- said Capt. Thomas,
that the expedition sailed from Punta
Arenas in December, 1897, and did not re-
turn until March II of this year. After ex-
ploring q new channel near Alexander
Island the bark set sail for the SOUTH but
had not gone far before the vessel was
caught in an ice pack, which held it pris-
oner for year.
Or. Cook estimates that during that
time the bark was drifted more than 1000
miles. The general direction was to the
westward. DR.. Cook regretted that 1t was
not to the southwark, in which event the
explorers would have made record.
when at last free of the pack the pro-
visions had run low that a return to
port was necessary, and the bark was head
ed uD for Punta Arenas where she ar
rived on March II.
"A meeting to arrange future plans took
place on board the Belgica the Coya was
making ready to sail. Some of the MEM
bers wished to continue their investigation
of antarctic regions; others were in favor
of going to MonteyiGeo."
These latter apparently had their way as
cablegram from that city, under date of
April 4, announced the arrival of the
Beigica at that port The message, which
was signed by DR.. Cook, read:
IAN we'll Our antarctic voyage has been
a complete success. Much new land in
WedEiel and open water to the south
discovered. Active volcanoes seen L come
home direct by early steamer The BelgIca
will not return for another winter, as or

The President is Thinking the Mat
ter Over.
His REMARKS TO His VISITORS
Peace in the Philippines May De-
termine His Action.
SEN ATOR HAWLEY'S VIEWS

Senator Hawley conferred with the Presi-
dent today on several political matters, and
in the course of his talk spoke about the
reports of probable extra session of Con-
gress. The President did not commit him
self definitely to the project of calling an
extra session of the legislative body, but he
intimated that such a course may be neces-
sary. The President did not say much on
the subject. but all that he did say plainly
indicated that the idea of an extra session
has entered his mind, and that it may de-
velop into a plan later on. To a Star re-
porter Senator Hawley said: Il think an
extra or early session of Congress neceS-
sity. There will be more important work
before the next Congress than ever before
known. Besides the election of a Speaker
and the selection of House committees will
take much time"
Anxious to Know Some thing.
A number of congressman now in Wash
irgton desire to know something definite
about an extra session. SO that they can
make arrangements about their business
and household affairs. There is no prob
ability. however, that this information VIII
be obtained from the White House. The
President cannot decide the question now
and will not do so. All he can say is That
ali early session may be necessary, and
tRdI dS tHt SITUATION lCOhS " llH ilU" suCii
a session is more than a possibility Sen
ator Hawley says that members of Con-
gross are minute men," and should be
ready at any moment 10 respond to the
summons for an extra session.
Mr.. Faris' Opinion.
Representative Faris of Indiana this
afternoon spoke to the President about the
early session proposition. The President
stated that the matter was worthy of con-
sheraton but that he had not reached a
decision. The President said that a num-
Der of prominent men had suggested such
a session to him. and that he thinking
over it. Mr.. Faris said to Star reporter:
My own views are that the chances of an
early session are better than they have ever
BEEN
What May Determine 1t.
The calling of an early session of Con-
gress is almost certain, it was limited by a
prominent official today, if peace is finally
arranged in the Philippines. The President
said to one of his callers today that he re-
garded the instruction in the Philippines
as drawing to a close. The expression was
made with considerable confidence. but the
President did not say whether his belief
was based on late information or on his
general knowledge of the situation.
The establishment of peace in the Phil
ippres will Immediately bring prominently
forward the future of the islands, and if
this is TO be settled by the next Congress-
or even partially considered that Congress
Wall have to meet early, it is said.
