The visitor laughed, the bushes
rustling as he pushed toward the
sound of the voice. ITS all right, old

Murphy could now dimly perceive
the other advancing through the inter
vening willows, and his Colt shot up
to the Level. "stop!-ye take another

PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDACY

Washington, May 23.-(Special.) )-Speak- CT Cannon was born in Guilford Court House. North Carolina, Il years ago last week and he left tonight for the Tar Heel State. where for a few days he will renew old acquaintanees. They must be old, as the speaker puts it. Tor ne only lived there tor three or four years and he has great doubts whether he will see any of his baby playmates.
 Since he has been in Washington, how ever. the speaker has received number of deleeations from his native state, one of which last winter invited him to at tend the commencement exercises at Guilford this month, which the speaker promised to do. The speaker says ms trip, therefore, has no political slgnih- canoe, though the politicians are nat urally talking of North Carolina dele- gates. The speaker visited the White House today and said he was simply going to Guilford to recite piece ana from there he would return to Dan vile. to remain until Congress convened unless something unforeseen turned up in the east.

.FORAKER AND MAYOR
 OF BROWNSVILLE
Combe Tells of the Excitement
 After Shooting
.oHloAN STATS RuMoR
No Truth In Longworth Report as to Brownsville's $100o Reward for the Persons Doing the
 Shooting.

Washington, Maay 23.-Mayor Combe of Brownsville today was the only witness before the Senate committee on military affairs in the investigation of the shooting affray at that place. After telling Of in- eidents connected with the shooting affray and subsequents events In which he figured, the mayor was cross examined by Senator Foraker at great length. The senator was particularly interested in a report that citizens of Brownsville had raised 5000 to be offered as reward for the information leading to the discovery of the persons who did the shooting.
 There was no truth in that report, {" said Mayor combe. "1t was started by an Ohio man.
 Senator Foraker Joined in the laughter which greeted the remark and asked the name of the man.
 T think it was Longw worth, senator" ! replied the witness.
 His first name does not happen to be Nichols, does it?7 inquired Senator For aker.
 T don't remember said the mayor
 Well, of course, you don't mean the Presidents son-in-law?" asked the sen ator.
 The mayor hastened to assure the 1onl- mittee that 1t was not the Ohio con gressman, and after the laughter had sub sided the conversation was expunged ron the record.
 The cross-examination will be continued 1 tomorrow.
 | Mayor Coinbe detailed the inciden. con 1 nected with the shooting and told of the l investigation by citizens to determine who 1 did the shooting. Most of the ci,cam- stances connected with tbe citizens in- l quiry have been made public, but the mayor interested the committee in his story of the excitement following tEe l shooting.
 | He said that hundreds of people ap- peared in the streets fully armed and de- l termined to make an attack on the gar | rison but that he addressed the crowd, and by calling prominent citizens to his
 aid managed to disperse the people to | their homes. He denied making 0 remark accredited to him by d white soldier | named Voschel connected With the al- l legged assault by negro soldier on the wife of citizen named Evans. His | remark was said to have been made the ! day prior to the shooting in conyersa- i tion with Major Penrose at the post | Voschel said he overheard the ma yor l tell Penrose that unless negro soldier
 was arrested before Il o'clock that iignt ] that every enlisted man seen in the town would be shot. Mayor Combe nof only , denied making such a remark, but said ], he could produce a letter from Major
 Penrose denying that such remara had I been made. A number of the shells. clips and other exhibits used in the investi9a- tions were found in the street b. Mayor Combe and he detailed the circumstances 1 connected with the finding.

12OO CHINESE TRY
 TO LAND BY FORGE
TAKE POSSESSION OF STEAMER
 WHICH BRINGS THEM TO MExI- CAN PoRT-GUNBoATS CALLED. REPUBLIC FULL OF oRIENTALS.

Mexico City. May 23.A special dispatch to the Herald from Guamas this after noon says that great excitement pre- vailed at that port yesterday when 12O9 Chinese on board the steamer Maori King. attempted to land in defiance of the Mex ican quarantine officers. The steamer ar rived in port a few days ago carrying 12O0 Chinese and 300 Russians, who are to work as laborers on the railway ex- tensions. According to the regulations of the port the vessel was held in quar- antine. After q time. the Chinese be- came turbulent They organized and took possession of the steamers launches and boats and going over the sides in hordes made for the shore. The captain of the steamer sgnalled to shore for the gun boat Demotra and the light tender Maizzland responded and the Chinese put back to the steamer. These same Chinese were participators In Tit, while the steamer was crossing the Pacific.
 The Herald in commenting on the re- cent outbreak deplored the fact that the gates of Mexico were wide open to the Asiaties, who are forbidden entrance into the United States. The paper declares that the Chinese and Japanese are flock ing to this republic in alarming num- bers and hardly d city or town exists but what has it's colony of Chinese.
