as eighth man In the National League,
signed call for a meeting of the National
League to be held I'm New York next Tues

Dreyfuss has won victory. He did not
consent to allow Pittsburg to enter the
meeting until assured by the Freedman
faction that all were sincere in their re-
ported efforts to get the National League
magnates together. The following tele-
gram from one Of the Freedman faction
was what decided Dreyfuss:

William Clearwater of Pittsburg was~ de-
feated by Charles Weston. known as q cow
bcy expert from Wyoming, by score OF
125 to lib. Clearwater at one stage was
ahead, 100 to 80. In the closing frames
tho Cowboy made n points to his oppo-
nents 4. The result OF this contest makes
tie for first place and the emblem on
which is the inscription, championship Of
the World"
Before a crowd that filled the hall Weston
made a clean sweep in the first frame. Then
began a contest SO close and exciting that
only few points separated them at any
time during ten frames.
III luck confronted Weston when the score
was a to SO In his favor. He separated the
all directions over the green cloth. but he
was obliged to sit down because of his fail
TIRE to send one into a pocket. Clearwater
eagerly took advantage OF the opportunity
thus afforded him and proceeded to count
fourteen, which gave him the lead, 50 to 10.
Still again. with the same determination
which had characterized his play through
out the game. Weston broke the entire pyr-
amid. This shot was productive OF two. In
stead Of the usual one, but the position play
was such that he could not score on the
next shot. Clearwater proved equal to the
emergency by pocketing twelve. and thus
still further increased his lead to fourteen
points.
A two-cushion shot by Weston, when the
score was ITO to 80 against him, sent the
thirteen ball into an end pocket. So SEN
spectators broke into uproarious applause.
Weston then proceeded to clear the table.
He followed this by clever playing with 10,
II and a, which gave him the victory. Z

EXCLUSION OF CHINESE.
Provisions Of Bill Favored by Foreign
Affairs Committed

The House committee on foreign affairs
yesterday completed consideration Of the
Chinese exclusion bill. and by practically
unanimous vote ordered 1t favorably re-
ported to the House The measure has
been most carefully considered for more
thar a month, and 1t comes from the COM
mittee with quite number Of changes
The exclusion Of Chinese laborers Is made
complete, both as to the mainland terri
tory of the United States and all insular
possessions. including the Philippines and
Hawaii. The committee finally restored the
prohibitory clause recommended by the Pa
Ciflc coast senators and members, so that
as reported, 1t reads:
And the prohibition shall apply to all
Chinese laborers, as well as those who were
In such insular possessions at the time of
acquisition by the United States as to those
who have come there since and those who
may be born there hereafter"
In addition the comrnittee framed the fol-
lowing new section. specifically directing
the Philippine commission to put the exclu-
sion law into force:
THAT the Philippine commission are here
by authorized ana required to make all reg
ulatiOnS necessary for the enforcement of
this act in the Philippines"
San Juan, Porto Rico, was struck out
from the list Of ports where Chinese may
enter, as 1t was feared there would be a
Chinese Influx at thai point owing to the
lack Of sufficient official force to make care
full inspection. The other more important
changes made by the committee are as fol-
lows:
Certificates of Identification OF Chinese
| must be accompanied by photographs. at
the expense of the Chinese"
In addition to San Francisco and the
other ports specifically mentioned for the
examination and Admission Of certain Chi
nsse. the commissioners general of immigra-
ton Is authorized to designate such other
ports as may be necessary. The commit
tee considered that the original bill was
too severe in making it felony for any
official to neglect to detain Chinese person
seeking admission and the penalty was re-
dueed to a misdemeanor. The original bill
also subjected q vessel to forfeiture in case
1t brought over forbidden Chinese. but the
committee changed this to fine Of $1,000
against the master or owner Of the vessel
and forfeiture In case the fine Is not paid
The committee struck out the clause re-
Quiring the United States district attorney
to be present at all deportation proceed
tngs. and requiring at least two credible
witnesses other than Chinese to establish
the right to remain In the United States
The prohibition against Chinese sailors on
American ships was struck out. thus per-
hitting such Chinese sailors to be en-
pioyed. The term Chinese was made to
include all those who are Chinese by birth
or descent, leaving out the references to
mixed, full blood etc. The committee also
struck out the Zee OF IS to the United States
