CHINESE EX-
CLUS|0N ACT
Will Be Rigid|y Enforced.--T
Adm nistration Thoroughly
Satisfied.
JOINT STATEHOOD BILL
Democrats in the House Seem to Be
Opposed to it..-Time Will
Tell.

Washington, April 9-In the cabinet
meetings and iE the conferences di
rectly between the executive heads o1
departments the whole subject of the
status of the Chinese immigration
question as it will be after a lapse oil
the existing treaty has been thorough
ly digested and it may be stated that
the administration feels that it haa
ample warrant for continuing to en-
force the rigid provisions of the Chin
ese exclusion act Of 1892 regardless ot
the denunciation of the treaty by the
Chinese government.
Questions the Presidents Authority.
Washington, April 9-In the House
today Cochran of New York spoke on
his resolution directing an inquiry by
the judiciary committee as to whether
there was any authority in law for the
recent executive order relating to the
pensions for age disability.
The Joint Statehood Discussion.
Washington, April 9-The majority
and minority views on the joint state
hood bill recently reported, were filed
yesterday by Representatives, Hamil-
ton of Michigan and Moon of Tennes-
see, respectively.
Mr.. Hamilton reviews the provisions
of the provisions of the bill at length
and urges the necessity and justice OF
admitting the southwestern territories
as two states
The views of the minority are sign
ed by Representatives Moon, Lloyd,
Robinson of Indiana, and Thayer. AT
ter lengthy discussion Of the bill, the
minority concludes with this express
sion:
Should the Republican party pass
this bill, wicked as it is in it's denial
of rights in representation, and partl-
san in all it's material details, it will
but afford another indecent example
Of the suppression oil individual, terri
torial and national rights to subserve
partisan ends. Even more than that,
it is q surrender of the power that
sovereign states would exercise in the
union if constitutional methods were
followed in the admission of the pro-
posed states. 1t minimizes the in
fluence of the west and southwest in
that citadel of federal power, the Sen
ate of the United States.
I'VE are of the opinion that it ulti-
mately will be better for the. union
that the territories opposed to consol-
idation shall be denied statehood, un-
der the theory of this bill, indefinitely
than that the conditions which will be
forced on them in an unnatural union
should exist"
The Republican members OF the
House are to meet in caucus on the
statehood bill early in next week to
agree respecting the consideration of
the measure.
Number of Minor Bills Passed.
Washington, April 9..The Senate to-
day passed number of bills of minor
importance and took up the conference

WRONG MAN MAY
Be IN CUSTODY
Friends of Youth Accused of
Causing Death of Peoria
Woman Say He Is Innocent

PEORIA, ILL.,, Oct. 22.-Some un-
known person may have inflicted the
injuries upon Mrs. Nellie Thomasson,
from which she died, according to
friends of young Higgins, who is un-
der arrest charged with the crime.
The evidence brought out at the
Coroner's inquest showed that the
woman walked to the train at the sta
ton in this city with but slight as
sistance from one of the employees of
the road and that when she arrived at
Lacon she summoned a hack and
made her way to the home of her
mother, several blocks away without
assistance. She did not summon a
physician until sixteen hours later, and
these facts tend to prove. it is asserted,
that Mrs. Thomasson was not fatally
hurt by young Higgins, but by some
one else after she left the depot where
she had encountered Higgins and his
sister.
The name Of man with whom Mrs.
Thomasson was intimate and who is
known to have objected to her rela-
tions with Higgins Sr., Is mentioned

Representatives of America
and England Take Part in
San Juan Island Exercises

BELLINGHAM, Wash, Oct. a.
In the presence of representatives of
both the United States and Great Brit
ain granite monuments were yes
terday unveiled on the army sites on
San Juan Island, in Puget Sound,
where Tor many years garrisons were
maintained by each nation while the
territory was in dispute. The occasion
was the thirty second anniversary Of
the award made by Emperor William
OF Germany, to whom the controversy
had been submitted for decision. The
exercises yesterday We're held under
the auspices of the Washington State
University Historical Society. Delega-
tions attended from Seattle, Belling-
ham and other points in the North
west. The United States monitor wy
Cming, commanded by Captain Cott-
man, fired the national salute of twen-
ty-one guns at the unveiling of the
monuments.
AT American Camp, on Griffin Bay.
where United States troops had estab-
liShed themselves in 1859 under Cap
tain Pickett, later famous as the leader
of Pickett's charge at Gettysburg. the
ceremonies took place early in the
day. They were presided over by
President Kane of the University of
Washington. In the afternoon the par
ticipants and their guests reached
English Camp, at the other side of the
island, and dedicated the monument on
the side occupied by Captain George
Bazalzatt and the British troops in
1860. Judge H. 3. Hanford of the Fed
eral court of the State Of Washing

cratic or make it safely Republican.
In West Virginia State issues are
still attracting attention and the Re-
publican State ticket seems likely TO
be defeated. At present the Repub-
hcan national ticket seems to have
the lead, but the Democrats are hope
full
Rhode Island is apparently safely
anchored in the Republican column.
The opinion is general that Roose-
Welt will get the election. On the
other hand. the belief is widespread
that Garvin. the Democratic candi-
date for Governor. will be elected.
WISCONSIN SEEMS SAFE.
In wisconsin the Presidential elec-
ton is incidental to the State con-
test. Roosevef's chances OF carrying
the State are believed to be good and
there is a probability that Governor
La. Toilette will be elected by a great
" reduced plurality. There probably
will be a considerable loss in the Re-
publican Congressional delegation.
Montana is doubtful and will con-
tinue TO be doubtful until the count
ing of the ballots. The Democratic
State ticket probably will be elected.
Colorado is likely to go Democratic
on the State ticket and is in doubt on
the national ticket. The chances
seem to favor Roosevelt.
Utah seems to be assured for Roose-
welt. Idaho also seems likely to go
for the Republican national ticket.
Nevada is conceded to Parker by 1900

WILLIAMS, Oct. 22.-The tour Of
Duncan McKinlay through the valley
counties of the Second Congressional
District ended temporarily here to-
night, his itinerary next week taking
him into the coast counties. He was
greeted at the williams Opera-house
bv a representative audience. G. A.
Ware was chairman of the meeting
and introduced Ernest Wriand, the
nominee for the Assembly, who spoke
briefly. McKinlay spoke for more
than an hour on national issues and
incidentally of his own candidacy. 1t
was his first appearance before a
williams. audience, and his hearers
were highly pleased with his elo-
ouepce. His exposition of the polit-
ical questions now before the people,
his clear-cut logic and forcible argu-
nents made a deep impression upon
all. He received the closest attention,
and was frequently interrupted by ap-
plause.
This afternoon McKinlay addressed
a large gathering at Arbuckle, nearly
all present being voters. He made an
excellent impression and gained many
friends. This section of the State is
strongly Democratic, but many mem
bers of that party have announced
their intention to vote for Roosevelt
McKinlay will hold the full Republi-
can vote and will make very cred
liable showing at the election.

GRAPE-NUTs.

Cure of Stomach Ais.

Food the Cause and Another Food the
Cure of Stomach Ais.
When sickness comes it's best to go
TO the root Of the trouble at once
take away the kind of food used when
the person got i'll. for the food evil
IDENTIFY didn't keep the body UP. Feed
the patient on Grape-Nuts. That is
tho way OF the food cure which has so
many remarkable cases to its credit.
Several years ago my husband be-
came affected by a most disagreeable
and painful diarrhea, lost his appetite
and grew shockingly thin and haggard.
I persuaded him finally to see a physi-
clan, but after taking course of medi-
cine he was worse than ever and this
discouraged him so he tried lot Of
homemade remedies. but they gave
him only temporary relief.
Finally 1 persuaded him to try an
other physician, who treated him for
indigestion. which he said was the
cause Of all his trouble, but after sew
eral months treatment the physician
said: You have let il run so long it
has become chronic and exceedingly
difficult to cure and you will always be
troubled more or less
We'll you can imagine how this
made him feel.
Some time after that some friends
advised Grape Nuts food and he
thought he would just give it a short
trial To our surprise he began to
improve at once. He kept on each
day getting better and better until now
he can eat anything he likes and de-
ciares he never felt so well in his life,
has absolutely no trouble with his
stomach or bowels and is nesllier than
he has been for years. Three cheers
for Grape Nuts" Name given by Pos
trm Company, Battle Creek, Mich.
Sounds too easy almost to be true,
but ten days trial by anyone viii prove
the value OF Grape Nuts, the most
scientific food in the world.

the history of the dispute, which near
ly provoked war. General George B.
Dandy (retired), who was with Cap
tain Pickett, told the story of how the
killing of a British settlers pig by an
American settler on the island in the
fifties led to international complica-
tions, causing the two garrisons to
camp on the island and came near pro-
voking war.
Among the letters read was one from
Mayor George H. Williams of Port
land, Or, who is the sole surviving
member of the American commission
which presented the United States
side of the dispute. Other letters were
from Hamilton Fish of New York, son
of President Grants Secretary of
State, who was also a member of the
commission, and from Hazard Stevens,
son of Isaac Stevens, pioneer Governor
of Washington Territory.

in this connection, but so far there has
been no positive evidence against him.
When it became known that the
Grand Jury had recommended that
Higgins be held for murder, there was
a remarkable demonstration on the
part of his friends, who fiocked to his
assistance.
Mrs. Higgins, wife of John g. Hig-
gins. gave out statement to-day. She
said that the intimacy between her
husband and Mrs. Thomasson began
three years ago. The couple, she says,
made a trip to Chicago together and
later he devoted all his attention to
Mrs. Thomasson. His son, Daniel Hig-
gins. demonstrated with him, but un-
availingly.

POISON MAY HAVE BEEN
GIVEN RED BLUFF RANCHER
Death Of Farmer Believed by Officials
to Be Due to ''Knock-
OUT Drops.

RED BLUFF, Oct. 22.-Antone
Smith, prominent rancher from Bend
Colony, died under suspicious circum-
stances at the Red Bluff Hotel last
night. Officials are inclined to believe
that his death was caused by knock
out drops"
Smith sold his ranch few days ago
and came to Red Bluff. He registered
at the Imperial Hotel and then disap-
peared. When he reappeared several
days later at the Red Bluff Hotel and
took a room he had the appearance OF
a man who had been on a debauch.
Soon after going to his room he be-
came unconscious and remained so for
three days. or until death came. A
search of his pockets revealed the sum
of $40. Whether he had more when
he first came to town is not known.
An investigation will be made.
