chinaman a NaturaIlzed citizen.

Boston-The department of justice
at Washington is just now studying
into the question as to how it was pos
sible for a Chinaman to become nat
uralized in this city some 81 years ago
considering the fact that Chinese
aliens are barred from American citt-
zenship
Special u. S. Atty. William II. Lew.
is at the head of the Boston bureau of
naturalization, under instructions from
Washington, has just begun procedure
to annul the naturalization of the
Chinaman in question who was known
while here under the name of George
Williams.
According to what is known of the
case Williams was born in Annoy,
China, Sept 23, 1849, arrived at San
Francisco in 1864, and was naturalized
in the u. S. court here Oct. z, 1877.
AS the law prohibits the naturaliza-
tion of aliens, except white persons
and Africans and their descent, the
u s. officials are nonplussed as to how
George Williams managed to get his
papers of citizenship AS George Is
most GO years old and now living in
China, it is not known why his natural
ization at this date is worrying the
officials at Washington.

Wall street Well Pleased.

New York, N. Y.-The Presidents
message greatly pleased Wall street and
was largely responsible for a still fur
ther rise in stocks. Wall street be-
lieves that the President has changed
his policy toward the railroads and
will adopt a more favorable attitude
on all corporation questions for the
remainder of his administration.
The Hepburn bill, which the Presl
dent favors in his message, has caused
a favorable impression in the financial
district. In regard to this bill Henry
Clews said
IF the Hepburn bill, as 1t reads, or
as II may be amended, will insure
square deal to both employers and EN-
ployes, it will be matter of congratu-
lation to the whole country. / per-
sonally am in favor Of labor unions and
/ recognize the right of labor to strike
If just cause exists, and If the rights
and privileges of no other man are
interfered with The other fellow,
however Is entitled to the privileges
extended every American citizen by the
constitution, even if he stands alone
and belongs to no union.
Capital and labor will work hand
in hand when each ceases to study It's
own personal interest and both are
willing to view matters from a broad
and liberal standpoint"

Il have been in the meat business in
Chicago since 1870, and this is the first
time ever knew sheep to be quoted
at 13 cents a pound. A packer eX-

New Yorlt-Alfred Gwynne Wander
bllt. head of the Cornelius Vanderbilt
branch of the family, whose wife Is
reported to have left him, was seen
by reporter March 25 at the Knlck-
erbocker club, where he had spent the
night 1t was nearly noon when a
brougham which he had ordered from
his stables at ZIG West 5Sth street
called at the club for him.
do you care to say" Mr.. Wander
bilt was asked, IF 1t Is true, as re-
ported, that you and Mrs. Vanderbilt
have agreed to separate and live
apart?"
81 do not care to say" he replied.
"Will you deny that the report is
true?"
mo, | will not deny It,"
"Will you state whether papers
have been served upon you in a suit
for divorce instituted by your wfe?"
Il would admit it If it were true, but
1t is not true"
Can you explain why Mrs. Wander
bilt packed up her effects at Oakland
farm, your home at Newport, and
moved to her brothers home at Tux
edo?"
II would gladly explain that matter
to you If | could. Mrs. Vanderbilt has
a perfect right to send her effects to
Tuxedo. l expect she intends to
spend the summer there"
Were you consulted about her
move?"
THAT was not necessary"
rs it true that you contemplate an
early departure for England to es-
tablish a coach between London and
Brighton?"
Il shall sail for England on Satur-
day"
Mrs. Vanderbilts brother, to whose
home in Tuxedo she has removed
seven carloads of effects from Oak
land farm at Newport, is Amos Tuck
French, president of the Manhattan
Trust company at so Wall street. He
has town apartments in the Stratford
house at III East 32d street.
Mr.. French was seen at his Office as
he was about to start for a directors
meeting. He was asked If he cared
to make statement about the report
ed separation Of Mr.. and Mrs. Alfred
Gwynne Vanderbilt.
Il don't care to be drawn into Mr..
Vanderbilt's affairs" replied Mr.
French. However, am free to say
that my sister is going to spend the
summer at my place at Tuxedo"
The report that the Alfred Gwynne
Vanderbilts had separated has been
current in social circles for long
time, but Mrs Vanderbilt's action in
forsaking the magnificent country
place at Newport, about which she
was so enthusiastic, is accepted by
the friends of the couple, as the final
severance of their relations.
The primary cause Of the disagree
ment, so friends claim, lies In Mr.
Vanderbilt's deep distaste for society
and his love for sport Many a time
when function has been going on at
his Newport place Mr. Vanderbilt has
slipped away to visit his stable.

Babies Valuable Assets.

Chicago,-An event of great import.
anoe 10 the family of the late Otto
Young occurred recently In the birth
of boy TO Mr. and Mrs. Samuel X
Martin. The boy is the ninth grand.
child to share the millions left by the
merchant. Until the birth of this,
their first child, the Martins under
the terms OF the win had no claim on
the fortune beyond Mrs. Martins life
interest In its income. Now they have
an heir whose prospects are worth at
least $3,0O0,OOO. 1t is the first Young
grandchild to be born since the death
of Mr.. Young.
The Importance of the event to the
four branches of the family arises
from the peculiar provisions of Mr..
YOung's will.
In his testament Mr. Young directed
that his widow and four daughters
be given practically the entire income
from his estate, but the principal IL.
self amounting at the time of his death,
to $2,000,000, he left to be divided
equally among his grand children. The
family with the most children thereby
viii receive the most money, and the
one with none living at the distribu
tion win not share.
The birth of the Martin baby had
the effect of disarranging calculations
in the families of the other three
daughters. The prospective share of
the family of Mrs. Marie Julia Young
Kaufman of Marquette, Mich. who is
In the lead with five children, was
decreased by the event from five.
eighths to hve-ninths of the estate
a loss approximately of $1,S75,OOO.
The future Share of the family of Mrs.
Ceclle Young Heyworth with two chill.
dren, declined correspondingly, while
that of Mrs. Catherine Otillie Young
Hobart, one child, fell off some $685.
900. An addition to any of these three
families will help it to regain the loss
of prestige suffered through the event
in the Martin family. At the same
time a repetition in the Martin family
will enhance its prospects and still
further reduce the others.

Gov. Hughes VIII Not lnterfers.

Albany.-Chester Il. Gillette of Cort-
land must die in the electric chair at
Auburn prison next week for the mur-
der of his sweetheart, Grace Brown,
at Big Moose lake two years ago. =
Gov. Hughes has just announced
that he had examined the evidence in
the case and had found no ground
which would justify him In interfering
with the judgment of the court. -L
Apparently nothing now can save
Gillette from death, probably on Mon
day, at Auburn, except the remote pos.
sibility OF a stay of execution pend
ing appeal to the U. s. supreme court.
So far as is known here no such. ap-
peal is contemplated.
Gov. Hughes has devoted, many
hours to a minute examination of the
entire record in the case, and is known
to believe that it is impossible TO read
the evidence and the unanimous opln-
ion of the court of appeals in affirm
ing the judgment of conviction and
entertain a reasonable doubt of the
guilt of the condemned man,

PACIFIC SPEECH.
The German Chancellor Makes sIsnL
ficant Utteranees In the ReIchstao.

fieant Utteranees In the Relohstas.
Berlin, Germany,-7Speaklng In The
Reichstag recently, Chancellor Won
BuelOw declared that he would person.
ally welcome the members of the In-
terparliamentary union when they as
sembled in Berlin next October for
their 1908 meeting ..-
Referring to Morocco, the chancellor
declared that the Algeciras act was
equally binding upon all the sigma
tories and Germany expected France
to carry ont the terms of the act In
a friendly manner.
Referring TO the Macedonian sima-
ton, Prince Won Buelow said the foun-
dation of the trouble was in the bitter
struggle between the various Chris
tian natlonalities in the Balkans, each
OF which sought supremacy of interests
and would try in the event OF the
downfall OF the sovereignty OF the Porte
to secitre the greatest possible amount
OF Turkish territory. Germany was as
much interested as any other power
In the maintenance of the status quo
founded ON the treaty Of Berlin and
consequently Germany greeted with
sympathy the project advanced by
Austria to extend her Bosnian rail-
road to connect with the Turkish hne
at Mltrovitsa This extension would
farther the advance of civilization. The
barbarities in Macedonia were blows to
humanity and the civilization of Eu-
rope, but the possibility of war, owing
to the dissensions among the powers
on this account was contingency still
more insdpportable .'r -'eo'"
Il hope and believe" the chancellor
said, that the European concert viii
be maintained and | understand that
this same feeling prevails in the other
cabinets where the slight differences Of
opinion probably soon will be over
come"
- Continuing his remarks, the imper-
ial chancellor said he regretted he was
unable to give the contents of Emperor
Williams letter to Lord Tweedmouth
first lord of the British admiralty,
which had created such a stir in Eng
land. lie salq TINS communication was
purely private, and the assertion that
II was an attempt to influence the naval
policy of Great Britain was absolutely
without foundation. The German em-
perOr was the last man to believe that
the patriotism of Lord Tweedmouth
would allow him to accept foreign ad-
vice regarding the British navy In
the same way Germany would not per-
init interference with her right OF self
assertion and self-defence in the build
ing of such fleet as was indispensable
for the defense of her commerce and
coasts.
1.-THE purely defensive character of
our naval program in the face of the
attempts to ,impute to us aggressive in
tentions and plans towards Great Brit
ain cannot be repeated too often or too
sharply" the prince declared. I'VE de-
sire to live at peace and in quiet with
Great Britain and we therefore feel
bitterly that some British officials
should continue to talk of the German
danger"

London, Eng.-"It is the express
wish of the king that Miss EllSins, shall
have no dowry," says Rome dispatch
to the Daily Globe. 1.-THE duke of the
Abruzzi has expressed his complete
agreement with this, and though it is
stated that the Elkins family is OPP
posed to this arrangement, it is sug-
gested that they will in the end ac-
quiesce in the kings wishes.
mo other Italian ,princesses have
brought any large dowry. Queen Mar
gherita came dowerless, as did also
Queen Elena while Princess Loetitia
brought little when she became the
wife of the duke of Aosta. 1t has, in
deed, become almost the rule in the
Italian royal house that princesses
shall bring no dowry."
