 The committee of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fireman, who went last Saturday to Fl Paso to present to Superintendent Simmons. of the Fl Paso & Southwestern railway, some complaints concerning their hours of labor and an order which was recent ly issued requiring firemen to wipe their engines after their days run was done. The committee went from Douglas last Saturday and was re- ceiyed by the superintendent on Mon day. The committee was composed of l.. Castevens, A. L.. Halligan and Sam Allison
 The reporter of the International American had a talk with MT. Cas- tevans yester lay evening at the Queen hotel He expressed himself as being perfectly satisfied with the conference held with Mir Simmons, who assured the committee that the causes of which they made complaint should be removed.
 The committee did not go to Fl Paso with the intention of presenting an ultimatum or to present any arbi- trary demands. but merely to present to MT. Simmons what we considered a just grievance and ask him to con sider the complaint. We found MT. Simmons to be perfectly willing to hear our story, and when We had lad our case before him he gave us every reason to believe that we would be granted our requests
 We did not make any complaint about freight trains not stopping for lunch and train crews on freight trains being compelled to carry lunch from one end of a run to the other. That complaint was made by the en- gineers and the trouble satisfactorily adjusted before our committee left fo- Fl Paso.
 MT. Simmons expressed his desire 10 do all for the men on his road that he possibly could at all times, and ex- pressed his determination 10 make the Fl Paso & Southwestern one of the finest roads in the country and that he recognized to accomplish this puT- pose it was necessary for him to hold the best railroad men to be had. and to do this the best possible treatment would be extended to them at all times"

IMPORTANT ARREST
 CHINESE SMUGGLER
INSPECTOR CORNELL CAPTURES
 LEE QUAN SUNDAY.
He Had an Office and is Believed to Be a Go-Between in the Unlawful Importation of Chinks.
Especial to the ReyiewD

Especial to the Review.) .... Douglas, Aug. 17.-One of the most important captures of a badly wanted Chinaman was ma le Sunday morning about 10 o'clock by Chinese Inspector Charles T. Connell chief inspector of the immigration bureau stationed at Douglas.
 Without notice to anyone, early Sunday morning, Inspector Cornell took the first train from Douglas and got of at Charleston. where he met Deputy Mansfield, and both doubled back to the Chinese colony. stationed near the San Pedro river, and uncere- moniously walked into the house own ed by Hop Sing. a Chinese gardener, where they found Lee Quan, the man they were after. The Chinaman was negotiating for the purchase of a ranch and had the transfer papers all made out in Chinese and was ready to sign the agreement when the two officers walked in on them.
 When Inspector Conneu told Lee Quan that he wanted him he was wrathy and strenuously denied the charges against him and offered to show the inspector his labor certiti- cate which permitted him to go into Mexico and return. The two officers took their man to the railroad station and brought him to Douglas, where he was lodged in jail 10 await the arrival of United States District Attorney Cambell who was telegraphed for by Mir Cornell
 The house in which the arrest was made belongs to Hop Sing, who ped dies vegetables in Douglas and Bis bee. In one room. which was no doubt used by Lee Quan as an office, was found several files of Chinese rec ords. telegraph blanks, several books, several books with names of Chinese and addresses of different Chinese companies in San Francisco. Los An geles. Fl Paso and other places. The room was fixed up in shape for an of- fee and was evidently the headquar- ters of the king pin of the smugglers. Lee Quan is well known by the of ficers as the chief go-between between the men who do business in the trat- fic of smuggling Chinamen into the United States. He is known as the Jew around Fl Paso and Naco, and called "Sheeney John," because of close resemblance to the Hebrew race, and talks fluent English. He also made several trips to Douglas with vegetable wagon belonging to Hop Sing and sold vegetables to the peo- pie of Douglas.
 Inspector Cornell has ample evi- dence to show that Lee Quan has been in Mexico without permission and coming into the United States and being actively engaged in the un- lawful traffic of bringing Chinamen into the United States.
