Police watching Chiunmen.
So strict is the immigration bureau in
preventing the possible incursion of
more Cinnamon into this country, that
special officers have been detailed for
the purpose of watching the crews of
two steamships which are now here,
and which are laid up for the next few
weeks. Both of these steamers carry
full crews of the Celestials, and until
lately the latter had been allowed to
come and go in the city unnoticed. This
fact. however, was made known to the
immigration bureau, with the result
that a special officer has been stationed
at this port whose sole duty is to
watch the "Chinks' and keep them on
shipboard.
For the past few weeks. however.
special policemen have been engaged
by the immigration officer who is sta
toned at the head of the dock to which
the steamers are moored, and the Chi
namen are kept from having any COM
munication at all with the shore. This
nettles them very much, and they are
said to be in an ugly mood. One Of
them recently attacked a white MEM
Der of one of the ships crews because
reference was made to the fact that

Imminent.

Birmingham, July 4.-(SpecialJ--
There was a general observation of the
Fourth of July in the mining district
of Alabama, and no coal whatsoever
was produced.
President Ed Flynn of the United
Mine Workers of America, announced
today that the Southern Clay Manu-
featuring Company with mines at War
rior, in the northern part of Jefferson
County, had signed the temporary con-
tract. All work in those mines with
temporary contracts will resume to-
morrow morning. The sessions of the
joint committee of the miners and OPP
orators will meet again tomorrow
morning to make an effort to agree on
a wage contract. The furnace COM
panies are still maintaining a demand
for a decided reduction over present
prices, while the miners insist on the
old contract.
There are no further furnaces an
nounced to be blown out as yet. The
Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Com
pany will have six iron-makers out
before the end of this week, all told.
1t is given out that some of the fur
mace companies here have made con-
tracts for a supply of coal and coke
from West Virginia, and as soon as
their supplies here run out, shipments
from that Stae will commence. Pres
ident Flynn stated this morning that
only four of the commercial coal ope-
rators in the union section of the coal
districts were without temporary con-
tracts, and he expected them to make
arrangements for continuation of
work in the next day or two. If the
joint committee of the miners and op-
orators do not come to an agreement,
the officers of the district organization
of the miners have authority to declare
a strike. AS long as there is no con-
tract. all miners and mine workers in
the employ of furnace or commercial
companies will continue the suspension
except in such cases as temporary con-
tracts are made.
The statement was made that the
shortage of iron production in this
State had already had some effect on
the general market, and there was
fairly good inquiry and prices have adj
vanced to $3.50 per ton. No. foundry.
