The report shows that steamship
companies receive $50 or more fer

many as 500 coolies are brought on one
vessel, thus making the profit snor-
nouE- In this connection attention Is

To back Up the assertions OF the re-
port. the commissioner compares the
! crime OF San Francisco with that Of
/ Cleveland and Cincinnati. He states
that the population OF each Of these
three cities is practically the same. for
comparative purposes. yet he finds that
the total number of arrests In San
Francisco for one year was. in round
numbers $4,000. In botn Cincinnati
ana Cleveland for the same period. the
total arrests were but about 2400. The
commissioner does not attribute this
great difference to the wilfull mean
ness of the Americans OF the Coast,
but TO the coolies and 10 the poverty
and distress caused by the starvation
wages paid the coolies, which forces
Americans to hunt other employment
or live the best way they can
A striking part of the report OF Com
missioner Turner is that. referring to
the pernicious contract system which Is
in vogue in the West and yet eyades
the laws penalty. Attention Is directed
to the fact that Chinese and japanese
agents are constantly at work getting
coolies into the United States in direct
violation OF Federal laws. The report
declares that there are men who send
to Oriental lands the necessary $50 for
every coolie to display when held up
by the immigration inspectors. State
ments are made by the commissioner
in this connection showing the amount
Of wages received by these same cool
les in their native land before starting
for the United States, and then deduct
ing that 1t is so manifestly absurd as to
need no comment that the coolies are
furnished the $50 by contract agents. |
Every coolie. says the report, has $50, |
and no more. This in itself is indirect |
proof that there is violation Of the ex-
clusion act.
The commissioner also lays stress on |
the ease with which Orientals get into |
the United States without being regis |
tered. He finds that but small per-
centage of japanese coolies are on the
books at the Immigrant Inspectors Of !
fee He also finds that many Chinese
are here without being registered. |
While he accounts for many of these
by their having come down from Brit
ish Columbia and some from Mexico,
he does not hesitate to assert that there
has been considerable looseness In the
vigilance OF officials at ports.
The commissioner. however, would
widen the scope of the law and INCLUDE
all coolies. He believes the Japanese in
the West and some OF the poems Of

Rufus choate's Writing.

Much has been said Of the handwrit.
ing Of Rufus Choate. 1t being perhaps
as extraordinary, and certainly as H.
legible, as any which the most diligent
search can procure. 1t was said that
there were three degrees OF Mr.,
Choate's writing, namely: that which
only he and his secretary could read,
that which he alone could make out,
and that which neither he nor anybody
else could decipher.
Many amusing incidents are told re-
garding this popularity of Mr..
Choate's. 1t was said that upon GER
tain occasion when he was engaged
upon some important case, he sent
written instructions to his office which
he desired to have carried out at once.
and which not a man in the place could
interpret. A consultation was held and
1t was suggested that the great lawyer
SHOULD be written to for an explana-
ton, although this seemed dangerous
experiment since the chances were that
no one would be able to read the ex-
PLANTATION. At last it was happily de-
cided that Geographic dispatch be
sent to him calling for an immediate
reply, and in this way the necessary
information was obtained. = Caroline

who was designated to make special in
qulries into the conditions existing in
Pasifc Coast States Mr. Turner spent
five months in the West His report
covers a wide range and consists Of
nearly 5000 words.
There are two main recommends
tons TO the report The first Is that
the provisions OF the Chinese exclusion
act be so extended as to take In all
cooiie labor. The second deals with the
rules governing the collection of Gus
toms and abuses incidental to the Office

Mr.. Turner's investigations eentered
in San Francisco. Los Angeles, Port
land, Seattle and other large Western
ports. but the report shows he made
careful inquiry into the labor system
in vogue on the Oregon and Pacific,
Union Pacific and Southern Pacific
railways, going East as far as Albu-
Querque and Denver.
The report emphasizes the PROPOSE
ton that nearly all OF the laborers Of
the lines. exclusive OF the operating
force, are coolies. II also lays stress
on the low wages paid to the coolies,
aud contains numerous interviews with
railway managers and other officials OF
the lines, In which they admit that IL
is but a question OF dollars and cents
for the companies, and it would be far
better for the public IL coolies were not
employed Mr. Turner declares that he
w-s unable TO find one railway man
ager who would honestly affirm that
the practice of using coolies on the sec
ton and construction gang in prefer
ence TO native-born Americans is a
good thing. The only reason the man.
ayers gave was the coolies are cheaper
hence there is more profit for the
companies.
Stress is laid on the wages paid to
coolies. The report states an average
of s12 a month, without board was
found to be the condition. Commits

SETTLED OUT OF COURT
Close of Litigation Over Alexander Estate
Involving About 81, 100000
Compromise Announced in Court
Verdicts in Favor of Will Accept
ed - Other Interests.

After litigation lasting nearly a year,
during which at different stages the case
has occupied the attention of three of the
local courts, the contest over the estate OF
the late Columbus Alexander, deceased. in
volving. 1t is said, about 81 10000 worth
of real and personal property, has been set
tied out of court by agreement between the
parties. Counsel for the parties in interest
appeared in the court this morning, and
in pursuance Of arrangement previously
made. took verdicts in favor of the will
and against the ejectment suits.
AT the time Of his death. in February.
1s:rs, Columbus Alexander was one of the
oldest and wea!thiest residents of the Dis
trict, and had acquired much prominence
during the regime of Governor Shepherd
and the board of public works. Soon after
Mr.. Alexander's death the will in question,
comprising about twenty-fOur typewriter
pages and devising a large part of the es-
tate in trust, was fled in the Probate Court,
To this, notwithstanding clause disin-
heriting any child that might contest same,
Maurice b. Alexander. grandson, who
had been left certain devises in trust,
through Attorneys ]. NJ. Wilson, Lambert
& Lambert and A. s. WorthingtOn, filed
caveat protesting against the validity of
the testament upon the ground of mental
incapacity OF the restator and undue infiu-
ence. Pending hearing upon this the at
torneys for the caveator filed ejectment
suits for the real property and petition
in equity for the appointment of receiver
to care for the rents and profits.
BY the terms of the compromise. in which
the caveatees We're represented by Attor-
neys f. d. F. Brady and r. Ross Perry &
Son il is understood the caveator, Maurice
3. Alexander, will eventually receive the
devises made in trust to himself, and his
deceased brother, while considerable sum
will be paid now for the withdrawal of his
opposition.
al collateral the settlement of the
Alexander case, it is said, the recent litiga-
ton between Messrs. Woodward & Lothrop
and certain devisees in the former case will
be adjusted, and the title to the valuable
property known as 1O01-1OG9 F street, which
was comprised in the Alexander estate.
will become the property of Messrs. Wood
ward & LothrOp, the consideration paid
therefor being said TO be about $4,000.
