SECRETARY CAGES REPORT.
Tells Haw He Would Stop Importa-
ton of Japanese.

Washington, May 15.-In response to
a resolution calling for information on
the subject Of immigration into this
country Of japanese, the secretary of
the treasury reports the following ar
rivals of japanese: 1898, 1880; 1899,
!, 1895, and for nine months ending
March 81, 1900, 4,427. The secretary
has no information of the number, said
to be large, who enter the United States
by the way of the Dominion of Canada.
He recommends the establishment of
exclusive ports of entry for immigrants
at the principal points on the boundary
line between the United States and
Canada. The secretary states the
same precautions are observed to avoid
violations Of the alien contract labor
and immigration laws in the eXamina-
ton from Japan is fostered by a num-
grants. Investigation by the treasury
department has shown that immigra-
ton from Japan is fortered by a num-
Der of societies in Japan who receive
large commissions from the steamship
lines. In view Of the recent immigra-
ton a special immigrant inspector has
been ordered to the principal Pacific
ports, including Vancouver and Victo-
ria. to make a full investigation and
report of japanese immigration.

SCARE AMONG RICH MEN.



The exodus of wealthy ChiCagoans
to New York continues at a rate which
bids fair to diminish rapidly the ranks
of the -four hundred" The past two
years have seen the departure OF a
large number to make their homes in
the Eastern metropolis, and lately
they have gone at the rate of one a
week. For instance, James b. Breese,
the broker, left to make Gotham his
residence. Recently Charles b. Nc

Next m the departure of Frederick
X. Pulsifer, one of the leading mem
bers of the board of trade, to swell the
list of ex-Chicagoans in the east. One

lawyers will follow him in the early
summer. Samuel NJ. NIckerson. late
president of the First National bank,

BUSY, PUTTING LITTLE TUGS.
Seventy or More In Boston's Interesting
Fleet.

In recognition of their Importance,
and the interesting variety of their
performances, it seems no more than
fair that the tugboats in Boston har-
Dor should have their census taken.
This would be a very simple matter, II
the tugs could only be corralled, but it
is not their way to stay long in any
one place and a tug boat convention
Is a thing quite unheard of. But Of
Boston's seventy odd tugs none is so
small as to be sneered at. Tugboats
irst came into use about half a cen
tury ago, but, finding n field of great
opportunities ahead, they fast out
grew any bashfulness they might have
labored under when first they appeared
among the great ships. Fifty of the
seventy tugs to be found along the
Boston water front are classed as "har-
Dor" or "harbor and bay" tugs. OF
these, thirty-three belong to one or
another OF the five companies in the
business, while eight are independent,
and ten are engaged in connection
with dredging companies.

Washington, May ia sensation
was sprung in the senate today soon
after the body convened. Scarcely had
the routine business been concluded
when Mr.. Clark of Montana. rose and
addressed the chair On a ques-
ton of privilege personal to himself.
MI. Clark said: 1T has not been my
intention to disturb recognized tradi-
tons of this most honorable body by
intruding my opinions upon any ques-
tons that might arise for consideration
during the present session, but the
question called up today for discussion
so vitality concerns my own interests
and the interests Of the great state
which l have the honor in part to rep
resent that l shall ask the indulgence
Of the senate while l, as briefly as pos-
sible, submit some remarks, referring
first to the character Of the investiga-
cation; second to the majority report
Of the honorable committee on privi-
lieges and elections, which has sub
mitted findings adverse to the reten-
ton Of my seat in the senate: third, to
the conditions existing in the state of
Montana for a number of years prior
to my election which justified my po-
as to the course | deem best to pursue
in the premises.
at is not my desire to cast any as
pensions upon the motives which actu-
ated the distinguished senators COM
posing the committee. and yet, with
the most respectful consideration for
the learning, legal ability and eminent
standing of these gentlemen, / am
forced to the conclusion, which I be-
lieve meets with the concurrence not
only OF a large number Of senator's on
both sides Of this chamber but also
to so per cent Of my constituency in
the state of Montana regardless of po-
litical affiliations, that the methods Of
procedure in the investigation OF this
matter we've manifestly unfair, non
judicial, and that they resulted In a
verdict OF the committee entirely op-
posite to that which would have oc-
Cured should the evidence have been
confined to that which was admissible
and pertinent to the issue.
Il contend that an Investigation in
volving a seat in the highest legisla-
tive body of this motion, as well as
the honor Of an Individual chosen for
that position by the people Of one OF
the sovereign states thereof. should be
conducted In a strictly judicial manner,
and that in the proceedings the estab-
lished rules of evidence should be ap-
piled. 1t is well known to everybody
that this was MOI the case. 1t is true
that there was a strong effort made by
the honorable senators from Alabama,
Maryland, Kansas and North Carolina
at the beginning of the investigation
to exclude all the irrelevant testimony.
but their efforts were ~unavailing."
The senators who filed a minority re-
port expressed in emphatic terms their
condemnation Of the proceedings in
this respect, as well as a denunciation
OF the character and practices OF the
principal attorney and Of some Of their
witnesses who testified for the prose-
cutfon.

PaRTIsANsuIp GONE MAD.

The action of the Republican leaders
of Harrison county no doubt advised
by those in charge Of the party affairs
of the State, in breaking up the small
pox camp near Wallace, for the sake OF
a few illegal and unlawful votes, can
not be too strongly condemned. The
negro laborers on the Short Line rail-
road were infected with the disease, and
the fact swas thoroughly we'll known,
both within and without the county.
but votes. were to be obtained at any
price, and the motley crowd of diseased
nondescripts was turned loose upon
the county and. State, and as result
the contagion has been spread even as
far as Wheeling. No wonder Health
officer Morgan resigned in disgust. His
professional counsel was ignored, the
laws defied and horse sense cast to the
winds-for votes. The law ought to
reach out for the Harrison county Off
Gals who lifted the quarantine, and
they should be taught lesson which
would not only last them for the re-
mainder of their lives, but serve as a
warning to others. To poll illegal
votes is bad enough, but to expose
county or State to the risk of disease
for a partisan purpose is heaping in
EQUITY upon lawlessness. Harrison
county should not rest until it has ex-
acted a proper penalty from the guilty
parties. no matter who they are.

Smallpox in Politics.

C1arksburg County Mail
DR.. D. P. Morgan, who has just re-
signed as Health officer for this county.
says that the newspapers OF the town
and the general public have done him
an injury by declaring that he raised
the smallpox quarantine at the Short
Line negro camp for political purposes.
He says that the quarantine was raised
at critical stage of the epidemic
against his earnest protest; that he re-
garded such action as dangerous TO the
health or the community, and so stated
at the time. He says that the quaran-
tine was removed Friday before cleo
tion by order of S. S. Faris, president
OF the County Court; that the demand
for the dismissal of the guards was
made TO the health officer by Deputy
Sherin Denham as the agent of Faris,
and that Mr.. Denham declared that IL
the guards were not dismissed at once
the County Court would not be respons-
lble for their pay, but would be re-
sponslble for their pay up to that time.
DR.. Morgan said he told Dennam chat
such course was dangerous that he
had been within the quarantined dis
trict but "a few days before and saw
numerous scab-covered patients who
would menace the health of the COM
munity il turned loose even within
twenty days. These men were, how
ever, turned loose, and it is said that

DR.. Morgan said further that when
the guards were discharged they were
unable to get their pay; that they seem
ed to look to him personally for their
pay; that he did, in fact pay a great
many out of his private purse, and that
Others only succeeded in getting their
money after it had been almost cut in
half by the hangers-on about the court
house. DR.. Morgan says he resigned
because the interference OF ring poll
ticians rendered his labors ineffective
and for the further reasons that the
men employed by him as guards, after
faithful service, were unable to collect
their pay from the comfy treasury.
