New York, August 1S.-Notwith-

been permitted to vote at elections
In this city, according to Joel M.
Marx, Assistant United States Dis
trict Attorney AS a result of his dis
covery three Cinnamon, one of them

ral9ned before Commissioner Shields.
They waived examination and fur
nished $500 bail
Laws were first passed in 1870 to
prevent the further naturalizing of
Cinnamon. These were supplemented
land made more explicit in 1882. Dem
psey p. Meetz, special employee of the
Department Of Justice. has arrested
'Tom Lee,' the so-called "Mavor of
Chinatown, at the latter's restaurant
in Mott street. Under the name of
Wung A. Lung, Tom Lee secured his
full papers in st. Louis in 1876, which
entitled him to citizenship rights.

PRESIDENTIAL
SITUATION
AS Viewed By a Hungarian News
paper.
paper.


The political affairs in this country
are not very well understood by some
foreign newspapers as the following
will show:
Theodore Roosevelt. the American
president, has a new rival for the
presidency. There is about TO be an
election in the United States and
Mark Hanna, powerful man, will
oppose him. 1t is difficult to under
stand clearly the American condi-
tons in this country, but we learn
upon investigation that before he be
came president, Roosevelt was q cow
boy, and the cowboys, being the dom
inant party in the United States, ele-
waited their companion to the presi-
dency. After Roosevelt's election the
cowboys demanded the best offices, in
Guiding two members of the cabinet.
but Roosevelt ignored their demands,
so they have decided to avenge them
selves and defeat him for reelection.
The cowboys WELD tremendous pow
err in the United States west of New
York city and they have offered the
presidency to Hanna. A delegation
called on him at his palace in the
state of Cleveland and rendered him
the nomination.. Hanna has never
been a cowboy, but, being ambitious,
he has accepted the nomination, and it
is thought he will be elected. We
learn that Hanna will make his cam
paign on a wild mustang. He is an
old man, but daring and skillful
rider In his youth he carried off
high honors as an equestrian and he
is decorated with numerous medals

LIVES LOST
At Chicago Crossing -Carelessness
Charged

Chicago, August 1S.-The lives Of
three women and one man were in
stantly snuffed out, another man is
dying and at least twenty-four other
persons were injured as the result of
another grade crossing accident which
occurred yesterday when a Chi
cago Great Western passenger train
collided with train of three street
cars on South Forty-eighth avenue.
Gross carelessness on the part of
Motorman Michael Ryan, of the Chi
cago Consolidated Traction company
is said to have been the direct cause
of the accident. Although he saw the
train whirling along in the direction
of the crossing when he was two
blocks away from the railroad tracks
he did not apply the brakes until he
was fifty feet from the patch Of the
big engine.

With A BRICK
Dunkard Pastor Struck the Gatekeep-

Warsaw, Ind, August 1s.-Rev.
Mr.. Baldwin, of Marion, a Dunkard
preacher, assaulted Gatekeeper Brown,
employed by the Winona Assembly, at
Winona Lake this afternoon, and
knocked him down with a brick be-
cause Brown would not allow him to
enter the park through the wagon
road and without a ticket. Baldwin
was arrested and placed under bond
to await trial. F. L. Marshall, a di-
rector of Winona, publicly offered to
pay the fine of any one who would
assault Baldwin. The affair caused a
great stir at the religious resort.
