CHINESE SAILORS
MUTINY N JUMP
IN SEA; FOUR DROWN

Philadelphia. June 2O.-A mutiny on
board the British steamship Highland
Monarch, outward bound for Auckland,
New Zealand, followed by a dash for
liberty by a dozen Chinese members of
h crew resulted In the drownfnr %
day of four, and the narrow esca If
three others. The men rescued in
a police station while the remand of
h m%utineers are in irons aboard the

The trouble started last night. The
Highland Monarch had been lying in
the Schuylkill river at Point Breeze in
h extreme southwestern part of the
city for three weeks, loading case oil
for New Zealand. As the United States
immigration law places a fine of $500
on the captain of a steamship for every
Chinese member of a crew that es-

not permitted to leave the vessel while

The confinement grew irksome and as
h ship was to sail today, one of the
mongolians asked First Mate Bowman
to allow him q few hours on shore. Be-
ing refused, the Chinaman drew a
knife and chased the first mate about
h ship. The nan was finally tripped
by a white member of the crew and in
falling cut himself.

still the ruling features in trade and in

in western distribution are rather
sharply in contrast with the reports of
Slow trade recently received. Warmer
weather is the key to the better CROP
and trade reports received this week
from he west, northwest and south
west, while cool, moist conditions along
the Atlantic coast, now disappearing,
have been q bar to trade and crop de-
velopments in the east. Relatively
best reports come from western cities
and towns, while country trade, though
better, is slower to respond, owing to
rmer being busy on work delayed.
r. G. Dunn says:
Crop news continue encouraging, the
iron and steel market improves. while
foreign trade now shows an excess of
export, and in these three important
particulars the business outlook is dis
tinctly better.
The primary dry goods markets still

DRUNK; DON'T CARE!
TELEPHONE my WIFE
Declared Illegal for Cop to Take
You Home If
"Soused."

Chicago, ILL.,. June Colts all right,
fellows, you car telephone to your wife
that business will detain me late to-
night and then get a happy "souse''
without fear of being taken home in a
w~heelbarrow by a policeman.
It's a good tip. because Assistant Cor
poration Counsel Howard Hayes, who
himself is married, yesterday gave a
written opinion to that effect. In so
many words Mr.. Hayes old the city
council judiciary committee that any
policeman who dared take a man home
when he is ''pickled' would 40 so at
his own peril.
In givina his opinion Nh. Hayes over
rules the theory of Judge Mckenzie
Cleland, sponsor of an ordinance pend
ing before the committee, which pro-
vides that all "drunks'' be taken home
instead of to police stations.
His idea. it seems, is that when a
married man is "soused" it is a much
greater punishment to wheel him horne
In a wheelbarrow, or something like
that, than it is to call the patrol wagon
and cart him to a cell. Pretty nearly
anyone, the judge figures, can square

but hardly anyone can square it with

him to his ron door.

Washington, June 21.-By a viva

two hours of discussion, agreed to the
conference report on the railroad bill,
which passed the Senate yestt rday. No

there were many chances for improve
ment and the Iowa senator proceeded
to point them out. His old opposition
to the court provision first
found expression, mi he again prophe-
sled undesirable results from the oper-
alton of this portion of the law.
With reference to the long and short
haul provision, Senator Cummins ex-
pressed the opinion that under it the

have practical control of the situation.
He thought the railroads would be slow
to challenge the law because of the
fear OF getting something worse.

did so regard it.
