London, Jan. 3O.-The reporters at
the wireless telegraph stations at the

HOUSE PASSES
EXCLUSION BILL
Agrees to Measure to Keep
Out Chinese

Exclusion Laws Extended to All
the Colonial Possessions Of The
United States
ALSO BARRED FROM SHIPS

Washington. April S.-The house
yesterday passed the Chinese exclu-
sion bill after Incorporating in it sew
eral amendments which increased the
drastic character of the measure. The
principal one not only excludes Chi
nese by birth and descent, but all
Chinese of mixed blood. The chief
struggle was over an amendment to
prohibit the employment of Chinese
sailors on American ships. An amend
ment covering this proposition at first
was ruled out on a point OF order, but
subsequently was modified to evade
the ruling, and was adopted, 100 to "a.
AS passed, the bill practically re-
enacts all the existing exclusion laws
and incorporates with them the exist
ing treasury regulations. It extends
these exclusion laws to the Philippines
and the other possessions Of the Unit
ed States and forbids Chinese laborers
in our colonial possessions coming in
to this country. The Philippine com
mission, by the terms Of the bill, is
directed to adopt proper measures fol-
the enforcement of the provisions OF
the bill in the Philippines.

ADDICKS WILL NOT LET
PUBLIC Use TIE PARK
Made His Tenant Have PaViliOnS
Moved From Riverside Resort
Near New Castle

Residents of New Castle now fully ap-
preeiate the selfish dog-in-the- manager dis
position of j. Edward Addicks,' said a
wellknown and interested New Castle
citizen yesterday.
His devotion to the comfort of the
dear people is demonstrated in his ac.
tiOn in refusing to rent sell or permit To
be used, by the public the park on his
farm near New Castle, known as River
side"
The tenant on the farm is \. II. Kee,
Republican, and he incurred the dis
pleasure of Mr.. Addicks by permitting
the Wilmington and New Castle Trolley
Company TO fit up the park and use 1t as
a summer resort. So displcased did tue
generous Mr.. Addicks become, it is said,
that he ordered the tenant to leave the
farm or get rid of the railroad company.
Mr.. Kee could not well amOrd to move,
SO he ordered the railway company To
tear down its paviliOns, remove other inn
provements and discontinue the park.
After this work Of destruction mad
been finished Mr.. Addicks smiled again
The frown of displeasure vanished from
his brow and he told Mr.. kee that he
need not yacate.
Mr.. kee is one of the foremost farm
ers of New Castle hundred and roaC
commissioner. He seemed to favor the
park. Mr.. Addicks let HIM go SO far 10

made arrangements to move to nearby

and the water was then only few feet
from the level of Thatcher street II
the heavy rain and strong east wind

think the water will be as high as it
has ever been. The high tide will be
at 1913 o'clock tonight. If the storm
moderates. however, the people do not
think they will have to vacate their
homes. All the vacant lots in that
section are filled with water. Some
time ago the city started to fill in the
bank along Thatcher street, but after
working for a short time the work was
stopped. The city could very easily
put a dredge in the creek and build q
bank at .very little cost. This plar
would protect the inhabitants of tha
district and would also improve thu

be taken in the matter. because th
taxpayers residing over Eleventh stree
