TO ASSIST KwANG HsU's CAUSE,
Astoria Cinnamon Who Would Restore
the Deposed Emperor to the
Throne.

Ding Poy. a prominent Chinese mer-
chant In this city. left on the evening
train for Portland yesterday for the
purpose OF attending a conference call
ed TO meet q representative Of Kwang
Hsu. the deposed emperor Of China.
The representative arrived in Portland
from Canada a day or two ago and
comes for the purpose Of soliciting
funds from the Chinese on the Pacific
coast to assist Kwang Hsu In regain
ing the throne. A large majority of the
Chinese residents Of this city are in
sympathy with the movement and a
number of the most influential Astoria
Celestials will attend the Portland con-
fab today.
Ding Poy stated yesterday that near
ly all of the Chinese in the Northwest
were heartily In sympathy with the
undertaking to re-establish Kwang
Hsu on the throne. Those now on the
Pacific coast are chiefly from Canton,
a few coming from Hong Kong.
In discussing the attitude Of the
Chinese In America toward the present
government. Ding Poy said Cantonese
favored Kwang Hsu, who was In favor
OF having things "alle same Mclean
man." Kwang Hsu would go even so
far as to abolish pig-tails and de-
stroy the joss-houses, establishing the
regulation European form of dress and
inauguTating an extensive system OF
public schools. The more enlightened
Cinnamon. said Ding Poy, are in favor
of these reforms but the ignorant
classes are prejudlced against them to
the extent that they will commit foul
murder to prevent their introduction
The high muck-a-muck' who is now
in Portland Is said to have succeeded In
raising many hundred thousands Of dol
lars for the purpose Of promoting the
cause of the deposed emperor, Just
how the Celestials expect to re-estab-
llsh him In charge Of the affairs Of the
empire by the use of the almighty dol
lar Is not explained, but there are a
number Of heap smart Cinnamon" in
this city who are satisfied that coin
in quantities sufficient will do the
work.

er may add fifty cents per barrel ia

he will be required to pay. The ap-
pie states of the east and west have
