THE MAYORS COURT.

The mayor had 0ne of the biggest
courts this morning that he has had
for many days. It seems that every
body went wrong Saturday night
and Sunday and of course all were
rounded up and asked to appear
before his honor this morning. And
they appeared. They run somewhat
like the following, though some of
the names the Progress reporter
failed to get:
Stella Finley, common prostitute,
$3.50.
A case charged with yagrancy,
discharged as the young man stated
that he had money and boarded like
other people, though he had no work,
as wsrk was injurious to Sne's health
during this warm weather.
Tom Trotter, charged with gaming,
$3.50 and the trimmings.
Tom Byrd, gaming, pleads guilty
and fined the constitutional sum of
$3.50 and the perquisites.
Allen Preston who perhaps was in
the same game was fined the same
old price with the same old trim
mings.
Francis Kennedy, common sub
ject for common complaint, $40.
Ernest FORMER, for failing to help
the balance of the people of the city
to keep up the streets by paying his
street tax, was assessed the costs as
he has some good excuse for not
paying the street tax. But the
costs will amount to as much as the
street tax.
Beeman Eure failed to hitch his
team and he was asked to contribute
to the city treasury the amount of
$3.50 and the costs. The team will
be hitched hereafter.
John Garnes, gaming, $3.50 and
the ice water money.
Tom Cross, vagrancy, discharged
J. c. Jarvis, carrying on the bust
ness of bottling ale, ETC., without the
proper privilege license.
j. M. Powe, for assault and strik-
ing P. j. Toomer. Discharged.
P.J. Toomer, charged with assault
and striking j. M. Powe. Fined on
pleading guilty $3.50 and the costs.
Emma House, vagrancy, $40 and
ice water money.
Enochs Kelly, gaming, fined the
usual $3.50.
Joe Davis, shuffiing the paste
boards, same old price of $3.50 and
soda water money.
Nick Stevens, gaming, the estab-
lishsd price of $3.50 and the lemon
ade money.
Daisy Smith, common nuisance,
$40 and the price of ice cream and
half a dozen cigars.
Two cases charged with unlawful
ly retailing whiskey sr beer or both
without the proper license. They
were fined $50 and the beer money
Brad Nix got drunk and then gel
into the lookup. The mayor thought
it was too hot to get drunk and tax
ed him with $3.50 and a few dollars
in the way of costs for the court anC
his officers to rattle with their keys

but this is enough for today. II

MAY HIRE CHINESE SAILORS
important Section Of the Exclusion
Bill Stricken Out.

Washington. March 24-By an al
most unanimous vote the house com
mittee on foreign affairs has struck
ont of the Mitchellkahn Chinese eN-
clusion bill the paragraph prohibiting
ships flying the American flag from
employing Chinese sailors. This pro
vision has proved one OF the chief
sources of controversy over the bill
The senators and representatives from
Pacific coast states regard this pro
vision as most important.
The main argument leading to strik-
ing out the provision was that Ameri-
can ships on the Pacific compete with
English and Japanese lines and that
the latter ships would indirectly re-
ceive great advantage i'll continuing
the employment of Chinese AZ $ 2"
per month. whereas tn" American
ships would have to pay about $@e per
month for white sailors.
Representative Kahn of California
has talked with Speaker Henderson as
10 the exclusion bill when it reaches
tho house and it is understood that
while Mr.. Kahn considers the sailors
clause most important. he will not in
sist ,lpon ii to the extent of jeopardlZ
ing the entire exclusion measure.
