SCHEME OF CHINESE.
How They Propose to Evade the Exclusion
Law-StOck Companies ORGANIZING.

Port Townsend, Wash, Dec. 25.-
The Chinese seem determined to
evade the exclusion law, according
to information received here by men,
bers of the local Chinese colony.
The information is to the effect that
a large number Of stock companies
are being organized in the southern
provinces with capital stocks OF ST.
100000 and upwards, and stock to
the amount of $500 will be issued to
Chinese coming to America so they
can show upon being examined by
the customs officials at port of
entry that they belong to the exempt
class, or merchants.
This action is said to be the result
of the agitation for more stringent
exclusion law at the expiration Of the
present law next May. The Chinese
immigration brokers in the southern
provinces believe that the new law
will exclude all except merchants or
members of mercantile firms who have
heretofore been admitted upon show
ing that they are interested in firms
to the amount of $500, and that large
numbers will soon start from the
Orient armed with stock in the new
companies.

Banks in the Orient.

New York, Dec. 24.-Three distinct
movements are at the moment under
way, having in view the establish
ment of American banking facilities
in the Orient, says the Journal of
Commerce. These include first, the
establishment of branches at Shang.
hal and Manila, by the Guaranty
Trust Company; second, the estab-
lishment of bank particularly organ
lied for Oriental business by q syndi-
cate of which Edward H. Cragin is
the head, and third, the establishment
by New York national bank of
branch at Manila. as soon as suitable
legislation can be secured.

TREASON IN MINDANAO.
Davis Asks for Military Control Of Prov.
ince-Several Recent Engagements.

Manila, Dec. 25.-General George
w. Davis, commanding at Zambo-
anga, island OF Mindanao, has re-
quested that the province of Misamis,
Mindanao, again be placed under
military control. General Davis has
proof that the recently elected presi.
dent and vice councillors aud the lead
ing men of Cagayan de Misamis, are
guilty of treason in furnishing am
munition to the insurgents within
the past month. The fiscal of the
province of Misamis is also impli-
Gated. The evidence shows that all
of these men are members of the
secret Katipunan society. General
James F. Wade, commanding the
American forces on Cebu island, con-
ours in and endorses the request OF
General Davis, and reviewing the
situation in Mindanao, says he is sat
isfed that the ends of justice, peace
and good government will soon be
obtained by the restoration Of milf
tary control to the province OF Mi
samis and the overcoming of all re
sistance to that authority. 1t is ex-
pected that the United States Philip
pine commission. will refuse this re.
quest, as they did a similar applica-
tion made by General Chaffee con-
cerning the province of Tayabas,
Luzon, where the rebels have been
particularly active recently.
Every effort to decrease the expens-
es OF the American army in the
Philippines is having little effect,
owing to the increase of army sta
tions, due partly to the activity OF
the insurgents on the island Of Samar,
in Batangas and Tayabas provinces,
and in other places, and also to the
establishment of municipal govern
ment in many towns, which has
necessitated sending troops there to
preserve order.
Captain j. S. Park, Jr., with 80
men of the Twenty-first infantry, en-.
countered go insurgents last week at
Alaminos, in Laguna province. -Four
of the enemy were killed and several
of the guns were captured and their
barracks destroyed.
A detachment of scouts OF the Sec
ond infantry also had small engage
ment with the insurgents, in which
they killed nine and captured four.
Lieutenant John d. Hartman, ol
the First cavalry, during an expedi-
tion, encountered the enemy six sep.
arate times without losing one of his
men. He destroyed several barracks.
General Bell, who is in command
Of the American forces in Batangas
province, Luzon, has praised Lieu.
tenant James D. Tilford, who, while
scouting with troop d, of the first
cavalry, routed an insurgent force in
that province. Lieutenant Tilford
located a rebel stronghold on top of q
hill near the town OF Batangas. He
surrounded the enemy under cover o.
night and attacked them at daylight
Their surprise was complete. Nine
teen insurgents were killed while at
tempting to escape. Lieutenant Til
ford captured 16 rifles and 500 rounds
4 OF ammunition.

AN AMERICAN TERRITORY.
Long Approves an Opinion Regarding the
Philippines.

Washington, Dec. 26.-The secre-
tary of the navy has approved an
opinion by the judge advocate general
that the Philippines are United
States territory, so far as the statute
Of limitation applies to naval offens-
es. In the case in question a sailor
deserted from the navy over two years
ago and enlisted in the army. His
regiment was serving in the Philip
pines and he remained with it. The
naval authorities, learning Of his
whereabouts, instituted proceedings
for his trial by courtmartial on the
charge of desertion. The case came
before the judge advocate general,
who decided that the statute OF linn
itations barred prosecution, it having
occurred more than two years ago,
and the alleged deserter not having
left the territory of the United States.
Secretary Long approved the opinion
and directed discrimination of the
proceedings against che sailor.

Conger has reported to the state de-
psrtment certain correspondence be-
tween himself and the Chinese gov
ernment regarding the precautions to
be taken by foreigners travelling in

sure their personal safety. The board
OF foreign affairs has requested that,
in accordance with treaty provisions,
travellers in the interior OF the coun-

sired that travellers give the local au-

flied and suitable guard be dispatched

TraInmsn Must Talk Spani,h.

Mexico City, Dec. 24.-The govern
ment has issued the long contemplat-
ed order that all railway employees in
contact with the public shall be able
to speak Spanish in such a manner as
to be able to deal directly with the
passengers and the public in general.
The order will probably affect Pull
man Company employees. 1t is assert
ed that many accidents OF late have
been due to the inability of trainmen
to speak Spanish, causing a mistak-
ing Of orders.

PERMITS FOR IMMIGRANTS.
Notice Of England to Those Wishing to Go
to South Africa.

Washington, Dec. 26.-The state
department has receieyd from Mr..
White, secretary Of the embassy at
London, copy of notice received by
him from the British foreign office in
regard to permits from persons desir-
ing to proceed to South Africa. Lord
Lansdowne, in forwarding the notice,
calls attention to the fourth para
graph, which states that subjects OF
foreign powers who may wish to pro-
ceed to South Africa from ports in
the United Kingdom can obtain a
permit on production OF satisfactory
evidence from their respective en-
bassies or legations in London.
Each applicant for permit must
produce a certificate to show that he
is in possession OF at least e100 ($486)
or is in a position to maintain himself
upon arrival in South Africa; that
the object of his journey is bona fide,
and that he has not been deported or
sent out of his country as INDECENT.
The concluding paragraph says:
ut should clearly be understood
that these permits are available only
to enable passengers to land in South
Africa, and are no guaranty that they
will be allowed to proceed inland.
Those who wish to do so must apply
for permits at the port of disembark-
alton. The latter are warned that
there Fare still thousands Of persons
waiting at the coast ports for an OPP
portunity to return to their homes
who will probably have precedence
over later arrivals. "

st. Petersburg, Dec. 26.-All ac-
counts agree in representing the state
of Manchuria as being very unsettled.
The presence Of the Russian troops
has led to most serious abuse. Priv
ate letters describe shocking outrages
perpetrated by bands of Cossacks on
the defenseless inhabitants. A typ
icsl case is that of six Mongols, Rus
sian subjects, who we're sent in pur-
suit Of horsethieves. They we're at
tackled by Cossacks and because they
were unable to produce passports,
five were tortured and then beheaded.

States require submarine electric
communication from Puget sound to
Alaska, Manila and the centers OF

of bill about to be introduced in
congress by Senator Foster, providing
for the laying and maintaining by

or rather series Of connecting cables,
to Alaska and the Orient by the
northern route. 1t is earnestly hoped

tion.
