A BOYCOTT FEARED
Cabinet Discusses Chi /;
nese Exclusion Law.
Some Apprehension That Rigid En-
forcement May Result in the Loss
OF Chinese Demand for Cot
fon GO0dS.
fon Goods.
lRv the Associated Press

Washington, June 13.-At today's
cabinet meeting the President took
up with Secretary Metcalf. of the De-
partment of Commerce ana Lapof, the
protest filed with him by members of
the American Asiatic Association
against what they regard as the harsh
enforcement of the Chinese exclusion
law Both the President and Secre-
tary Metcalf are anxious to do all in
their power to promote the export
trade of American manufacturers, and,
with that end in view, they VIII take
up this subject of the admission to this
country of the Chinese exempt classes
in a definite way. Representatives OF
the cotton textile industry are appre-
hensive lest the reported action OF
some of the immigration officials may
result in a boycott by Chinese mer-
chants of American made cotton
goods, Secretary Metcalf roposes to
inquire into the subject to ascertain
what, if anything, may be done TO
eliminate what the Chinese regard as
abuses of the exclusion law. 1t is sug-
gested, however, that the subject is
one which necessarily will have to be
dealt with by Congress and not by the
executive branch of the government.
Secretary Metcalf expressed the opin-
ion at todays meeting that the law was
not enforced with unnecessary harsh
ness. The necessity of close scrutiny
of the certificates was pointed out by
the secretary, as many of such certifi-
Gates presented are found to be fraud
ulent. The secretary indicated that
during the present fiscal year, seventy
three Chinese, bearing students GER
tificates, had applied for admission
and that seventy-one Of them had been
admitted The other two were de-
barred by disease.
Secretary Wilson informed the
President that he was pressing his in
vestigation of the charges filed with
him that a leak had occurred in the
cotton crop reports issued by the Agri-
cultural Department, but he yet had
been unable to develop proof TO sus-
tain the charges, The agent of the
Secret Service and others who are
making the investigation have been
instructed by Secretary Metcaf TO
leave no stone unturned in their in
quiry.

Gambling Houses BY the
Premier.

CBy the Associated Press.)

Athens, June 13.-Theodore P.
Delyannis, the popular Premier OF
Greece. was stabbed and mortally
wounded by a professional gambler
named Gherakaris. at the main en-
trance of the Chamber of Deputies at
o. m. today. The Premier died
within three hours.
The assassin, who was Immediately
arrested. said he committed the deed
in revenge for the stringent measures
taken by Premier Delyannis against
the gambling houses, all of which re-
Gently were closed.
The Premier arrived at the entrance
of the chamber in a carriage.
Gherakaris approached. saluted the
Premier and opened the carriage door.
The Premier was in the act of thank
ing Gherakaris for his courtesy when
the gambler plunged a long dagger
into NJ Delyannis' abdomen, intlicting
frightful wound.
The murderer was Immediately
overpowered by the attendants. Medi-
cal assistance was quickly secured and
the wounded statesman was taken tC
a Red Cross station, where an opera
ton was performed in an effort to
stop the internal hemorrhage. This
was unsuccessful and Premier Delyan-
mis- died at 1880 O'Clock.
The news spread quickly and ii
would be impossible to describe the
popular evidence of sorrow or the
anger of the crowd who attempted tC
lynch the assassin. Lynchfng was
prevented by the gendarmes,. who
rushed their prisoner TO prison.
1t is estimated that 10000 persons
followed the body of the Premier
from the Red Cross station to his late
residence Members of the Cabinet
and of the Chamber of Deputies were
among the crowd, many of them weep
ing.
King George. who is at Tatoi. was
informed of the assassination and an.
nounced that he would at once return
to Athens.
Investigation by the police shows
that Gherakaris was recently hber-
ated from prison, having been sen.
fenced to eighteen years for the mur
der of his wife.

Southern Pines, n. c., June 10
While local train Number 6, between
Hamlet and Raleigh was loading
freight at Lakeview at $50 this morn
ing, through train Number s, fast
freight, ran into the rear and caused
a most fearful collision. G. w. Brink
ley, engineer, and f. c. Horton, fire
man, both of Raleigh, jumped as
Number s struck and saved their
lives though Fireman Horton was
seriously injured and was given medI-
cal attention as soon as the news
reached Southern Pines.
Conductor w G. Stewart, of Hamlet,
was in charge of train Number s.
There is a deep cut and curve just
before reaching Lakeview, and long
freight was standing at the freight
warehouse, the scene of the crash, just
opposite the passenger depot The en-
glne to Number 6 had been cut loose
from the train, and after doing some
shifting was standing about so feet IN
front. and when Number hit 1t in the
rear there was a fearful smash up,
three cars being splintered and the
caboose converted into small kindling.

So far as ascertained your corre-

no flagman from Number 6 had been
sent out. and it appears that two trains
were i'm the block at one time.
Two wrecking trains-one from
Hamlet and one from Raleigh-were
soon ON hand. and under the efficient
directions of superintendent Hudson
the track was quickly cleared. and
