nous Fight for Pennsylvania
SenatOrship.

HARRISBURG, Pa. Jan. 15.-This was
an off day with the legislators and politi-
clans gathered at the state capital to take
part in the big contest for United States
senator. The candidates and their mana
gers went home to spend Sunday ard will
not return until tomorrow. Chairman
Elkin. of the state Republican committee,
is here in the interest of Senator Quay,
and F. A. VanValkingburg. of the Busi-
ness Mems League. Is looking after the
anti-Quay forces. The headquarters Of the
two factions were closed to-day and no
efforts were made by either side to make
votes.s
Mr.. Elkin said tonight he had every
heason to believe that Senator Quay would
be reelected. Mr.. Van valkingburg said
just the reverse. He claims not a break
has been made in the anti-Quay lines and
predicts Mr.. Quay will fall twenty-five
short Of majority in the house on Tues
day:
on Wednesday" Mr.. VanValkingburg said.

overcome: His managers know that he
cannot win and are only playing for posi-

Senator Quay's friends declare he Is so
confident of his reelection that he will
start next Thursday for months fishing
at St. L9cis. Fla. Senator Vest. of Mis-
delphia. will go with him. There are less
than a score of legislators here tonight,
and none is certain as to the outcome of
the contest. On the surface the result is
very much in doubt and neither faction is
overconfident as to how the fight will

SOLD INTO SLAVERY.
Rumor Starts Stampede Among I'm.
ported Chinese and q Number
Are Found Missing.

VANCOUVER. B. c., Jan. ia story Of
alleged Chinese slavery has come to light
here since the arrival of the steamship
Empress of Japan, from the Orient. She
brought from Hong Kong 40S Chinese. Of
whom 191 were reported TO be destined for
Tampico, Mexico, to work on plantations.
They were under the care of Chinaman
named Ma Chop, who stated that 1900 more
are to follow. While herding the Chinese
from the dock to a special train q stam-
pede ensued. In their frenzy a number
rushed toward the edge of the dock. They
would have fallen into the bay had it not
been for police officer who stopped the
mad rush by knocking score of them
down. When they were finally rounded up
1t was found that eight were missing. AZ
ter several minor stampedes, the Chinese
were persuaded to get on the train.
The cause of the frenzy and stampede
was the arrival of a Chinaman from San
Francisco who told them they had been
sold as slaves by Hong Kong men and that
they would never go back to China. Local
Chinese here are helping the men still in
hiding in every possible way, as all are
convinced that they and the remainder Of
slavery. They are going to send word to
The city police are hunting down the
missing Chinese for evading the $50 Doll
tax. The Canadian Pacific officials are also
hunting them because they have contract
ed to take the party safely over their lines
and are liable to a heavy customs penalty
for every Chinaman landed in British
Columbia who does not pay poll tax

NEW SILVER ORGAN.
Bryan Democrats will Establish Rad.
ical 10 to 1 Newspaper in
kanRnR Cauifal.

TOPEKA. Jan. 15-tSpecial) A red hot
16 to l Bryan Democratic evening news
paper will soon be established in Topeka.
1t will be a part and parcel of the chain
of newspapers controlled by the. Bryan
Democrats throughout the South and West.
This field has no newspaper that can be
depended upon absolutely to preach the
true doctrine of IL to l.. so the Bryanites
claim, and they propose to start one that
will.
A stock company with 5000 capital has
been secretly organized for that purpose.
and the promoters have selected the ma
chinery already. About $4,000 of the cap
ital has been subscribed by silver mine
owners and IL to l Democratic leaders of
national reputation. including Chairman
Jones. of the national committee. and Sem
forts of ]. G. Johnson of Peabody, nation
al committeeman of Kansas, the other 500
600 has practically all been raised in the
state. The paper will use the Scripps-Mc-
Rae news service and will attempt to be-
come the great Bryan organ of Kansas.
The fusion leaders have become greatly
alarmed over the situation in Kansas.
They are afraid that it has swung back
into the Republican line to stay, unless
something radical is done; therefore, they
propose to sink wad of money in news
it in line for Bryan.
In order to complete its cnain Of news
papers, it was necessary to get one In Ken.
tucky and establish one in Kansas. A St.
Louis paper is to handle Missouri, and an
Omaha paper Nebraska. This plan gives
the BryaniteS a paper in all OF the South
ern and Western states.

strict quarantine because of the smallpox,
will have the quarantine raised on all
freight and express matter Tomorrow. DR..
Buxton, president of the territorial board
of health. said to-day that it would be

For several weeks both Chandler and
Stroud have had several cases of smallpox
a few deaths resulting from the dread
disease. Smallpox in its most malignant
form is raging among the Indians Of the
Creek nation. There seems to be no law
whereby the Indians can be quarantined.
The national government has been appealed
to in the hope of confining and stamping
out the scourge. DR.. Buxton will leave
here tomorrow for Stroud and If he can
arrange for the strict auarantines on the
few individual cases now existing there, he
will raise the quarantine of passenger traf.
fic. This measure is taken on account of
business with tine outside world which has
practically been suspended.
The only political gossip in the corridors

Agoncllo. the representative of General
Aguinaldo in Washington, has filed with

Accompanying the memorandum Is a let
ter. in which Senior Agoncilio states that
he has received no reply to his commit
nication of January G, in which he asks that
be presented to the president and be heard
upon his claims. In view of the position in
which the representatives Of the American
government and the representatives OF the
Philippine government find themselves upon
the islands at this time. he urges that the
matter be given Immediate attention. The
letter and the memorandum have been
department. and although the officials have
themselves refused to make them public,
they have. nevertheless, expressed a will
ingness for Senior Agoncillo to do so II he
desired. The papers are now In the hands
OF Secretary Hay. The memorandum is
along the same lines as statements here
tofore made public by the Filipino repre-
sentative. Senior Agoncillo asserts the
Filipinos established and for seven months
have maintained a form of government re-
sembling the American. in that it is based
upon the right of the people to rule; that
Spain. having at the time of the sign
ing of the treaty of peace. possession of
Philippines, except Manila, being in posses
sion OF the Philippine republic, Spain could
give no title to the United States for the
islands. and that having no title to give,
her claim can not be rendered better by the
ratification of the treaty of peace.

number Of employees vacated their posi-
tions. Some Of them were Spaniards re-
turning to their own country. or were en-
ployes, who, under the Spanish law. had
become entitled to retiring pension. Had
this class remained In the service, their
pensions would have jeopardtzed. Others
left for reasons best known to themselves.
At present Colonel Bliss Is carefully read
justing his force, placing Americans only
on guard where q general supervision over
the whole force is necessary.
customs service Of the island should be not
only an object lesson, but a school Of in
structions for the natives. It can. he says.
be made an object lesson by having no one

by having the natives for the great mass
of employees, with only enough Americans
honestly done. Colonel Bliss announces
that in addition to the weekly reports re-
quired from such collectors by the execu-
tive order of December 8 he proposes to in
stitute a system of daily reports showing
all moneys received. He thinks he can
keep the war department daily informed as
to the revenues Of the island at trifiing
expense.
Colonel Bliss found on hand when he took
possession Of the customs house at Havana

which was laid upon loading and unloading

PARIS. Jam. 15.-The soir says that
Count Won Munster. the German ambassa-
dor, who left for Berlin suddenly yester-
day, was summoned to confer with Baron
Won Bulow, Germany's secretary of state

General Mercier, who was minister for

fus. has been interviewed by representa-
tive of the Soir, to whom he declared that
in 1894 he knew nothing of Comte Ferdi-
nand Esterhazy or Of the latter's relations
with Colonel Sandherr. 'Dreyfus,'' he ad-
ded, ''lied when he pretended knew he
had applied documents to a foreign power

ments in return, with view of obtaining
some mitigation of his sentence. How
ever, l caused him to be asked the number
piled. He refused and his refusal, there
