Washington, March 1.-Two ar
guments were presented in which
almost antipodal positions were
taken by two senator's Mr.. Tel
Ter (sil. rep. COLI in a brief speech.
maintained the constitution could not
extend over territory acquired by
the United States, while Mr.. Turner
rep. Wash.) deliberately contended
that the constitution embraced ac-
quired territory the very moment the
United States took permanent possess
sion of it. Senator Teller held this
government could make outlying ter
ritory into states or could hold II as
colonies as it saw fit. while Senator
Turner maintained the United States
could not hold colonies or dependeo-
cies. Aside from constitutional oues-
TONS the two senators were in prac
teal agreement. Both were opposed
to the pending bill and both objected to
any of the insular territory becoming a
part of the United States or any of its
inhabitants citizens of the United
States.

Jefferson's motive in securing the an

WORK OF A MOB.
Chinese LaboreTs Shocklng|y
Treated by Gang Of RuffIans

Riverside, Cal, Dec. 2e.-At Casa
Blanca. four miles south of here, an in
furiated mob of Is laborers, composed OF
white men and Mexicans. visited a. Chi
nese camp and commanded eight occu-

The request was promptly obeyed and
Immediately the frightened celestials

their helpless victims almost INTO insen-
sibility. the ruffians hastily took their de-

Is due to the discharge from a packing
house OF several Mexican girls and the
substitution of Chinese help. Geo. Dun

Chicago. Dec. 29-An exciting race TO

The more the people of Providence look
into the proposition to have central
transfer station, instead OF system of
transfer tickets on the cars of the Union
Railroad company, the more the proposed
plan seems TO increase In unpopularity
That the people OF Providence desire
transfers is unquestioned, but they want
them without all the restrictions with
which the Union Railroad company would
hedge them and ask only for what Is so
freely and so generally given In other
cities.
AS FAR as can be ascertained at the
present time there Is but one city OF any
Importance that uses the transfer sta
tion system, and that is Nashville, Tenn,
where it has been unpopular since the
day II was inaugurated
In fact. SO much is the system disliked
and SO inconvenient is 1t for patrons of
the street cars, that the transfer station
I'm Nashville ia invariably spoken OF as
the house of detention"
Providence certainly does not want any
thing OF this kind, and there are quite
a number of prominent citizens who do
not hesitate to express their objection 10
the plan.
COSTLY FOR THE CITY.
A very well known business man OF
this city, who has had much valuable
legislative experience, said to News man
today:
"In my opinion when the Union Rail
road company furnishes the people with
transfers II should be done without put
ting the city OF Providence to any ex-
pense whatever, but IL central transfer
station il erected, by consent or the city
council, the city will pay dearly for 1t
III you carefully read the free transfer
act passed by the General Assembly, you
will find that tho act provides that the
company is released from five years from
the date of the use OF the transfer station,
from all expense of paving and repav-
ing the streets through which the cars
run.
''Of course. in such an event, the ex1
pense would fall upon the city, ana
think that a conservative estimate VIII
show that-in five years time this extra
expense would amount to at least SS5O, Ooo
'iDo the taxpayers OF Providence wan,

RAN AWAY
FROM THEIR
HOMES.
Two Girls and Two Boys Ar
rested at the Union Pas
senger Station.

Four young people were apprehended
at the Union station, yesterday after
noon.
Miss f. s. Billings. who is the agent OF
the Travellers Aid Society, is very keen
in picking out cases which require official
action, and she has yet to make mis-
take in interfering with the designs of
evil-minded people and in bringing others
to a realizing sense of the wrong step in
contemplation.
When Miss Billings saw this youthful
quartet she OWNED that they were proper
objects of solicitude and sent for Agent
Thurber, OF the Anti-Cruelty to Children
Society.
Mr.. Thurber called in Patrolmen Martin
and Caffrey and they took into custody
Malvina Barton. ls years old. of No. 80
Cambridge street. Worcester; Hattie Ce-
dar, Is years old, OF No. IL Oliver street.
worcester; Fred Ducette. IL years Old OF
Morton avenue, Worcester, and Joseph
Rivers, IS years old. OF Manton, this
state.
The young people arrived here at 10:30
In the morning and hung about the sta
tion until O'Clock, apparently having no
object In view excepting TO kin time un-
I'll dark. The girls appeared to refuse 10
leave the station, probably realizing their
position and the snares which might be
set in a great city.
The Cedar girls brother came from
Worcester and took her home on the late
afternoon train.
The Barton girls parents were notified
and they will come for her today
The young men win be liberated during
the day.
The runaways for that was what they
were, had left home without any prepara-
ton for a long absence.
