The Overdue Fleet.

The American ship Edward Sewall, now
out 1855 days from New York for Shanghai,
was posted as overdue yesterday. She IS
laden with kerosine and Is per cent was
paid on her by the underwriters yester-
day.
The Roanoke. now out 1853 days from
Norfolk, Va, took another tumble yes

ing to the fact that she was spoken on
September % in latitude 81 degrees south,
longitude 70 degrees west, the rate drop

noke left the coast of Virginia a vessel
was seen on fire by a passing steamer
and it was thought to be the American
ship The underwriters paid As per cent
on her until it was discovered that the
Roanoke was safe and sound off the
Platte Then a scare over her coal cargo
was gotten up and reinsurance was paid
on her until the rate again reached IS
per cent. This figure dropped to zero
when the ship was reported this side of
the Horn, but the underwriters again got
scared over the heated cargo of a vessel
that reached Honolulu and the rate of
the Roanoke again went to Is per cent

application. Whether there is a place in
Mexico known as Guatemala was not
made an issue in the case. Such was the
destination in the application, and Judge
de Haven referred to 1t as such, as he
was obliged to do under the pleadings.
Solicitor Reeves says:
Ny attention has been called to recent de-
cision of Judge de Haven who suggests that

ported with the accuracy which should char
acterize the report of decision Of the court.
For instance, Judge de Haven, more than once,
inadvertently, of course. locates Guatemala in
the republic of Mexico; and quite careessly
he is made to remark that the regulation of
the Treasury Department relating to Chinese
1858 (25 St. p 475) and 1892 OF ST. c. 25). The
first act prohibits the coming of Chinese to the
United States, and the second act prohibits the
coming of Chinese persons to this country, and
has relation to Chinese passing in transit.
The power of the Secretary to make the regu-
lation referred to is given by article III of the
treaty ofa1SS4

given by the act of 1894 Appeals in such cases

ROB COLEMAN
IN HIS SALOON
Three Footpads Strange
Him and Take Money
and Watch.

The robbery in Joseph Coleman's sa-
loon, Ito Second street, Monday evening
was one of the most daring that has ever
occurred in the city. Coleman was knock
ed down and kicked and robbed of his
gold watch and chain. The robbers also
took $42 out of the cash register. Captain
Seymour has detailed Detectives Ryan
and O'Dea on the case, and as Coleman
was able to give a good description of the
men their arrest is expected soon.
Coleman's statement is that the three
men entered his saloon at the time men
toned and called for three glasses of
beer. Coleman served them and one of
them put a 50-cent piece on the counter.
AS Coleman turned around to get the
change from the cash register one of the
trio threw his arm around his neck and
pulled him backward against the bar.
Another grabbed his watch and chain out
of his pocket, while the third rifled the
cash register.
Coleman was unable to call for help,
as the robbers arm was strangling him.
He was thrown to the floor and kicked
on the jaw and body. The trio then ran
out of the saloon
The police were also notified yesterday
that Saturday night, between 10 and II
o'clock, two men entered the saloon of
A. Schoenitzer, Twenty-sixth and Bart
lett streets, and ordered two glasses of
beer. While one engaged him in CONVEX
sation the other succeeded in extracting
from the till a bag containing $40. He
missed the bag almost Immediately after
they had left

March Is the First Month
Of the Year, Says
Mrs. Kennedy.
Some Interesting Testimony
Given in the Kershow
Will Contest.

Mrs. Alice Kennedy, negress of Oak
land, who cared for the late Max Ker-
show, whose will is being contested, testi-
fled yesterday that from April 1 to April
"a Of this year, the period covering the
time when the purported will was exc

In Kershow's apartments at Tortoni's.
She said that Smith called frequently to
inquire after kershow's health, but never
entered the rooms.
In the direct examination the colored
woman was very positive as to the dates,
but when cross-examined by Attorney
IauSZky, who represents Rhea Gettings,
to whom Kershow left most of his prop
erty, It became evident that she was la
mentally ignorant where dates were con-
cerned. When asked how old she was
She said she was 1896, and followed this
remarkable statement by saying that
March was the first month of the year.
When given chance to make another
guess she said November. The attorneys
for Miss Gettings were not slow to see
the dates in which the contestants were
interested, and piled her with questions
concerning days, months and years, prac-
tically DESTROYING, her evidence. 1t was
also discovered that the witness had a
number of dates written on card which
she held in her Ian. These dates, she
claimed. were written by her husband to
enable her to answer the questions which
ne informed her would be asked her.
Mrs. Kennedy was a better witness
when describing Kershow's habits. She
said that she was with him from $50
a. m. to IL p. m. every day and that be-
tween those hours he drank a bottle and
half of whisky. She said that from the
1st of April Of this year to the oath he
never left his room and was so weak that
he could not walk without her aid. Her
testimony in this respect corroborated
that of John Roland, the negro who re-
NAMED with Kershow during the night.

NO APPEAL FROM
THE COLLECTOR
Ruling in Transit Cases
Sustained by Treas
ury Department.

The Secretary of the Treasury has de-
cided that the Collector of Customs has
q right to refuse to grant to Chinese in
transit the privilege Of passing through
any part of the United States when he
feels that the applicants intend to make
their way clandestinely into this country.
He has decided also upon the authority
Of F. A. Reeves, acting Solicitor Of the
Treasury, that there can be no appeal
under the present regulations from the
judgment Of the Collector. Hence the de-
partment has dismissed the appeals in
the cases of eighty Chinese laborers who
asked permission of Collector Stratton to
pass through California on the way TO
foreign countries.
Reeves makes a singular mistake and
one that does an injustice to Judge de
Haven Of the United States District
Court. In his written opinion to the Sec
rotary of the Treasury he insinuates that
Judge de Haven is ignorant of the geog-
raphy Of the republic of Mexico, and then
very inconsistency refers to Judge de
Haven as the learned Judge" The fact
is that Judge de Haven in deciding in ia
vor Of Collector Stratton in the cases
which were appealed to the Treasury De-
partment on the agreed case of FOX
Yupg 70 said that the applicant asked
permission to pass through the United
States on his way to Guatemala, Mex
leo" This was the fact, such being the
