hustled too much, wherefore he hustles off on

ton OF the work Professor Coolidge takes up
the question of competition and assimilation.
To race antipathy must be attributed most Of
the bitter feeling Of workinEmen toward
Orientals. In the early days all industry was
speculative, and social and climatic conditions
conduced to instability, where in great measure
only intermittent employment was afforded to
hired labor. The Chinese were ambitious
thrifty, non-aggressive and ready to take up
the less inviting tasks. This 1uidity of Chinese
labor, says the writer as compared with the
instability Of American labor available for
the same lines of industry is perhaps its great
est advantage, combined as it is with the
thorough discipline of the tong (trade union)
organization and almost universal tradi-
tion Of honesty in keeping contracts The
ChinamaE is. above all, lover of home and

NO DANGER OF
CHOLERA HERE
Or. C. W. haulty Says Port
Is Closely Guarded Pre-
cautions Taken.
INVESTIGATED REPORTS

The Typographical relations be-
tween this and New York ports has
caused some alarm because of the
cholera reported in foreign ports,
but both Health Officer DIR. G. w.
Naulty, Jr., of this port, and the
State Board of Health say there is
little danger for New Jersey being
infected. DR.. Naulty has been So
journing with his family in Pennsyl-
vania and returned last night. He
has kept in touch with New York
and Washington marine health au-
thorities- and for the sake of precau-
ton, has been informed by the Sur
geon General at Washington that the
New York authorities will lend him
every assistance.
The danger of Introduction of In
lection in this port is reduced to a
minimum, because single line OF
continental steamships run from
Europe to this port. They come
from Huelva, Spain, and that port
is reported to have a clean bill of
health.
Cholera has become subject of
much discussion since the discovery
of cases here, but DR.. Naulty an
nounced that other plaques from
Sonth America are to be feared more
than this In this port. However,
there is little danger of any infec-
tion here, for the port Is guarded
closely. Then, too, every steam
ship captain must report, under
oath, any cases of disease there may
be aboard and a rigid meteorological
examination will follow

Women's Christian Temperance I'm
ion against saloon and hotel keepers
of Sayreville township, came up In
court here this morning, but after
the opening OF the subject, Senator

they claim have violated the laws in
several respects The application of

Barcelona, Spain, Oct. 11.-A state of
increasing excitement reigns in BARGE
Iona. The success of the revolution In
Portugal appears to have famed the
fire of rebellion that has smoidered
since the furious outbreak of a year
ago.
General Weyler, captain general of
Catalonia, admits that the strike of
miners here is taking on revolution
airy character. He says that his or
ders are to suppress any active dis
loyalty with firm hand.
Ten thousand stern faced miners
marched to the cemetery in the sub
urbs and placed wreaths upon the
tombs Of Ferrer and the revolutionist
Garcia, who also was executed in con-
sequence of the revolt.
Violent speeches were made by lead
ers of the miners, who fiayed the
Clericals, charging them with respon-
sibility for the executions. A specta-
tor who shouted. 1T was your fault as
we'll as the Clericals,' was seized by
the miners and had been beaten al
most to death when he was rescued by
the police.
The military and police forced the
manifestants to return to Barcelona in
small groups.

SPAIN ANXIOUS

Nearness of "Fsrrer Day"
Alarms the Ministry--Fear
of An Outbreak.
STRIKE AT BARCELONA

Madrid, Oct, 11.-Premier Canaleja's s
warning to parliament that the agita-
ton OF the Clericals and anti Clericals
among the workingmen Is liable to
plunge Spain into a civil war has not
served to ease the mind of the public,
which daily is discussing the possibil-
fty that the fame Of revolution will
overlap the frontier and engulf their
own country
The reported message of Alexandra
Lerroux, chief of the Republicans at
Barcelona, to- Provisional President
Braga of Portugal, "start your revo-
luton; we will take care of ours" Is
widely printed in the radical press as
indicating Republican plans for an up
rising
The government feels the deepest
anxiety at the approach of Thursday,
Oct. 13, which Ia now popularity
known as "Ferrer day" when 1t is
feared that the manifestations mark
ing the first anniversary of the execu-
ton Of Professor Ferrer, the alleged
revolutionist, will develop rioting.
All requests for permission to hold
Ferrer meetings of protest are re-
fused. With Thursday passed safely
the government considers that the
worst will be over, as 1t counts on the
absolute loyalty Of the army, which In
its entirety Is held in readiness to
stamp out the first spark of rebellion.
