WHY GEE HOP FLED
He Did Not Fear but Felt the Exclu-
 sion Act.

The mystery of the departure of Gee | Hop, the West Washington street laun- dryman, has been solved at last and at
 the same time there has been disclosed
 an industrial unrest among the Chinese lahorers similar to that which exists among the whites. They have banded together for higher wages and they are
 in a position to enforce their demands. Their position is being made the more IimpregEable by the operation of the eX-
 clusion act.
 It was at first reported that Gee
 Hop was afraid that the Treasury off cials were after him on account of a effectiveness in his certificate. But there was nothing in that. Gee Hop was here when the exclusion act went into effect, and he was one of the first to conform to it's requirements.
 He has been for years engaged in what seemed to be a lucrative business. He had several Chinamen working for him. and his laundry was one of the largest and best patronized in the city.
 Another Chinaman, yesterday, in speaking of his flight from the city, said that he had done something that a Chinaman seldom dies-fee from ris debts. He could not make anything after the payment of his help. Wages had gone up and were going higher Most of the Chinamen who are here now were here before the exclusion law went into effect and many of them are growing too old to work to the ad- vantage of their employers. Those who can still work are feeling their import ance and they are putting their feeling into the shape of demands for higher wages.
 In the nature of things, a time will come when there will be no more Chi nese laborers in this country. There was a time when a Chinese laundry could drive a white man out of busi- ness, but that time has passed. The help in q Chinese laundry now costs more than that of q steam laundry. The only way the Chinese can keep up the competition is to live cheaper than a white man can, but even a Chinaman can not live on wind and that is what the proprietors of the laundries are coming to

TIPPED THE LAMP OVER
Garnett Residence Destroyed by Fire
 Last Night.

The residence of Mrs. M. F. Garnet, at the corner of Fourth and Van Buren
 streets, was entirely destroyed by fire Hast evening together with most of ts lcontents. The building was occupied by Mrs. Garnett, her son Robert her
 two daughters and Mrs. Wiggenhorn,
 who is spending the winter here in at Tendance upon Ter husband. who is li
 at the Sisters hospital in the adjoining block.
 The fire started from the accidental iCVerturning of a lamp in most eX- Iasperating way, for it was the result of a playful incident. one of the young ladies was trying to take an orange
 from the hand of another, when an ann Twas thrown back, hitting the lamp and | tipping it over. As quickly as possible
 some one ran to the street and gave
 the alarm. passing boy ran to the nearest alarm box and summoned the l department. IL was only by the merest l chance th2t serious if not fatal injury was not suffered by at least two Of the i occupants of the room. When the lamp was overturned the Clothng of both | Robert GaIRett and his sister Annie was saturated with oil, and the girls dress 6AU-lil lli re. INOFtlb plNNFu Ills SlSlCI up and ran out of the room with her, smOthering the flames as he went. She had on a heavy dress, one that resisted the fire quite we'll and it was put out without burning her at all. Robert suf- fered the blistering of one of his hands and the singeing of his hair.
 The department made a most com mendable run and did valuable work laf fta,. ~. A residence, being a frame house and a very inAammable structure, was doom ed f.Om the first. Eut adjoining it on the east was another frame building
 but a few feet away which was saveI by keeping down the flames on that side .Of the Garnstt house. The department was on the street almost before the bell rang. and many hattering remarks were made by the hundreds of visitors who witnessed for the first time tEe rapid action and organized work of the Phoenix volunteers. The new lighter on the engine, invented by Engineer Cobb. worked admirably, and Mir. Cobb says he had steam up by the time the hydrant was reached and furnished water as soon as the hose was con nected.
 But lttle effort was made to save the contents of the house, for the flames spread so rapidly that there was chance for only a few minutes work. A dress CT a few chairs and a trunk was about nil of value that was taken out. Be side the usual housefurnishings and all the clothing of the inmates except what they had on, a good piano was among the property destroyed.
 An incident of the fire that attracted a geat deal of attention was the explo- sion or 8 large number of cartTidg= s. ! They did not gc off like a bunch of

The house had been profusely dec orated by the children with roses and chrysanthemums. Upwards of 50 children sang in the choruses and rendered the program without a flaw. Mrs. Bagby had given them most thorough training and pre- sided at the piano throughout the ex- ercises.
 One of the largest audiences ever assembled in the church greeted the children last night, completely filling both rooms. and from the hearty ap- plause given, they were one and all highly entertained by the young folks.
