Chinese Will Not Be EMPLOYED.

There is not the slightest probability of
the employment of Chinese laborers upon
the Panama canal, because the govern
ment of China will not permit coolies to
leave that empire for such a purpose The
terrible mortality of the laborers who were
engaged IN the construction of the Panama
railroad fifty years ago, and more recently
under the French administration of the ca
nal, IS well remembered in China and the
iSthmus has a very bad reputation among
tie Chinese. Early in the occupation of
the United States a medical commission
was sent from China to the isthmus to
make IN investigation of sanitary condi-
Tons. and their report was unfavorable.
Although great change for the better has
taken place since that time. that govern
ncnt would not allow any contracts for
labor to be made without a second investi-
CATION.
The experience in connection with labor
contract in the South African mines has
also taught the Chinese government to be
very careful. In that case contracts were
made with the mining companies for terms
or five years. with the approval of the
MAYER or magistrate of the town from
which the laborers came. The mining COM
pany was also required to give bond for
good treatment and prompt payment of
wages. While there has been compare
lively little complaint from the coolies who
went to South Africa. IL is certain that the
government at Picking would be even more
strict with the regulations for labor con-
tracts the isthmus.

Early in this week, while the Maryland
oyster police schooner Nellie Jackson was
lying frozen in the ice near Deals Island,
in Chesapeake bay, her master. Capt. Rob-
ert F. Walker. thought he would go upon
a scouting expedition among the dredgers
in the adjacent waters. Using the gasoline
power launch attached to the police boat,
Capt Walter started out. On the oyster
grounds known as Malls bar seven vessels
were discovered. but they. seeing the
launch. started to sail away. A shot or two
at them with the loag-range rifle carried on
the launch soon made them heave to, and
the masters of the boats were placed under
arrest.
They were taken before Justice Talton at
Rock Creek, but as Capt. Walter found no
oysters aboard the boats the magistrate
released the prisoners for want Ct evidence.
1t is stated that the men: were engaged In
Dragging for the oysters, but while the
police boat was chasing them all the oysters
they had taken were thrown overheard ana
all traces Of dredge work removed. 80 that
when the officers boarded them there was
nothing aboard the vessels to convict the
masters. The justice. In Diminishing the
oystermen. told them that he believed they
were guilty of dredging. as charged, but
that evidence was lacking.

DEPRECIATION UPON PROPERTY.
Samuel johnson Charged With At
tempt to Steal Lead Pipe.

Samuel johnson, colored, twenty-six
years Of age, whose home is in Chester
court, was locked up at the tenth precinct
police station last night. charged with dep
relation upon property. Johnson was cap
tured by Policemen Sullivan and Bradshaw
after an exciting chase, during which three
shots were fired at the fleeing man. His
arrest, however, was largely due to the ac-
ton Of DR.. Albert ]. Carrico, living at 29o3
14th street, who reported that he had seen
a colored man enter a vacant house In his
neighborhOod. Seas. .,. ..-s. -.-.- :.
The two policemen went to the house to
search for the intruder. DIR. Carrico re-
naming outside to see II the colored man
made an effort to escape. When the police
men entered the lower part of the build
ing the colored man jumped from the Sec
ond-story window and started away from
the premises. He had not gone far, how
ever, before the policemen were out OF the
house and engaged in the pursuit.
Johnson was caught by the officers ana
was taken to the station. An examination
of the vacant house showed that lead pipe
and plumbing fixtures had been cut from
the kitchen and placed In a bag, but the
intruder had not had time to take away the
plumber. The prisoner gave his name. age
and address, but " ouid say nothing more

head, although. according to the accepted
theory, they had but one stomach. Their
tastes differed; sometimes one was hungry
when the other was not, one was fond of
food the other disliked, one sang alto and
one soprano In duets. and there were other
phenomena which furnished great interest

Col. Roosevelt a contract with their
parents in Georgia or Alabama permitting
judgment and convenience. for term
of years, for a certain price. which was to
be forwarded monthly to the father. The
contract stipulated that the child or chill
tanned other natural provisions. with a
pledge to return them In good health to
their home at the termination of the time
limit. There was nothing in the document
either permitting or prohibiting the lessee
to sublet or transfer his human obliga-
tons to another person. and, although the
sale of the contract had been made in
legal form and the Frenchman had signed
an agreement to observe its conditions and
return the children to their home on the
date specified. he gave no surety or guaran-
tee of any kind that he would carry out
the contract. Col. Roosevelt, therefore,
acting in his official capacity. seized the
twins and had them sent to the con-
sulate.
Then began a long and amusing legal
battle. The colonel fought as yaliantly as
he did on the bloody fields Of Virginia and

many strange experiences; but perhaps
the strangest of all grew out of his at
tempt to rescue two human waits. or per-
hapS it would be more accurate to call 1t
to settle that uuestion-from life Of
slavery.
One evening during the earlier years of
his service as consul general at Brussels a
man came to his house in great excitement
and notified him that an American circus
manager who had been giving exhibitions
in Brussels for some days had decided to
quit the business and, in disposng of his
tised "Siamese twins which was his best
drawing card. to a Frenchman for 5000
francs. The informer, an American, had
been connected with the show in some
humble capacity. and had become attached
to the helpless monstrosities. He dreaded
to have them fall into the hands of an
unknown foreigner Col. Roosevelt's SYM
pathy and indignation We're at once eX-
cited. and seiZing his hat and ever-faithful
walking stick. he hurried down to the
place where the circus had been.
1t did not take him long to discover that,
the show having gone to wreck. the Amer
lean manager was trying to settle his af-
fairs and get out of town as soon as pos
sible, and he had already succeeded in dis
posing of the greater part of his parapher-
MALTA. Roosevelt also discovered that it
was true that he had sold the "Siamese
twins to a French professional Snowman
for a thousand dollars. These Siamese
twins were two colored children, black
as the ace of spades. about twelve years
old. and bound to each other by ties which
human skill could never dissolve. They had
two heads. two arms and four legs, but
only one diaphragm. Both heads could
sing. whistle, talk and eat. and showed
considerable intelligence. They used to
converse with each other and would quar-

COURT DENIES REQUEST.
An Attachment Asked for Not Regard

Judge Kimbail today refused to order an
attachment for the arrest Of three market
men, who had forfeited collateral instead
of standing trial on charges of having un-
clean stands. A request for the attach
ment was made by DR.. Woodward, the
health officer.
The cases in question were those of Fan
ME Greenapple. 800 Louisiana avenue; Rich
ard Claxton. 946 Louisiana avenue, and M.
James Dambrosia, 1928 Sd street southwest.
They were taken into custody yesterday by
police officers, and each left S. collateral
for appearance in court this morning. They
failed to appear, and Prosecuting Attorney
James Pugh stated to the court that DR..
Woodward wanted an attachment for these
defendants, so that they would be tried In
court. The prosecuting attorney stated that
similar cases have been tried in court dur
ing the past few days and In each case a
fine of IS was imposed. and that there was
nothing to show that these new cases were
different from the others.

court should be taken up with these cases.
