WASHINGTON, June 24.-That the
threats of the commercial guilds of
China to boycott American goods have
raised serious question in the minds
of business men and merchants is in
dicated by telegram received by
President Roosevelt from the Portland,
Ore, chamber of commerce. The pres
ident authorized the publication of the
telegram, which follows:
Portland, Ore, June 23, 1905. The
president, Washington: The Portland
chamber of commerce respectfully ur-
ges immediate action on your part
with respect to this country's rela-
tions with China, the first considera-
ton being arranged for the nations
honor, which demands faithful and fair
performance of its treaty obligations.
Secondly, our commercial interests
are seriously threatened by the man
ner in which our present laws regard
ing the admission of Chinese into this
country are executed, which seem in
their practical working to contravene
treaty obligations.
1--WE earnestly recommend that more
liberal Interpretation of the laws be
enjoined upon the immigration authori-
ties, and meantime the announcement
of the appointment by your eXcellency
of commission to inquire into the
present exclusion laws and the meth
ods of their enforcement, with instruc-
tions to recommend to congress such
legislation as shall promote increased
harmony between the two nations,
would provide a beneficial effect. We
are advised today by cable from Hong
kong that immediate action is necessary

ladybugs from Australia to combat the
black scale which YVES ravaging the

them loose in the courthouse yard to

prising results have been obtained. In
places where there was not vestige of
green to be seen and where the
branches everywhere were crustd with
the scale is to be seen fresh green and
almost a total absence of the pest 1t
is almost demonstrated that the lady
bugs are thriving and that there will

Ed Clifford who shot Ruth Kyle in
a public resort in this city last March,
was sent to San Quentin this morning
to serve ten years, the sentence having
been pronounced by Judge Taggart
yesterday.
Clifford was loud in his denunciation
of the court when taken to his cell,
and proclaimed that he had had the
the girl he had attempted to kill, re-
GREETING that he had not succeeded. He
applied the vilest names to her and re-
viled the court for having sentenced a
man for attempting to Kill woman
of the kind, and hoped that she would
yet die from the wounds he had given
her. His words were noted by the of
ficers, and he was told that in case the
woman should die from the wounds in
flicted by him, which is not at all inn
possible, what he had said would be in
itself enough to procure for him an inn
mediate audience with the hangman.
