force State Law.

Baltimore, Oct. 4.-The recent &C.
ton of the Baltimore board of police
commission in placing an armed guard
around police headquarters in an eff
fort to resist the seating of tempo
rary board constitutes resistance
of the lawful authority of the state,
is the belief of Governor Austin l..
Crothers. He declared that he will
take all necessary steps to put 1t
down, even to the extent of calling out
the militia to enforce his orders. AT
torney General Isaac Lobe Straus of
Maryland has advised the governor
that he has right to call the military
power of the state in case any re
sistance is made.
The members of the board are un-
der charges of incompetency and mis-
conduct laid against them at the in
stance of Governor Crothefs, who re-
Gently held an investigation of the
police department. At the inquiry
testimony was adduced showing cor.
ruption in the department and laxity
in enforcing the gambling and liquor
laws. The governor holds the commits

has ordered that they be placed on
trial before him.

GREAT AMOUNT OF OPIUM
FOUND ON THE MINNESOTA
Also Number of Chinese Stowaways
Caught When Big Steamer
Arrived at Seattle.

Customs officers searching the Great
Northern steamship Minnesota Satur-
day discovered $4,000 worth of opium
hidden.
Customs officers at this port were
notified before the Minnesota arrived
last week that she was carrying 29
Chinese stowaways and $4,000 worth
of opium, and consequently when the
big ship arrived close watch was kept
on her.
The first fruit of this vigilance was
reaped Saturday, when First Officer T..
Cheetham walked down the gangplank
and handed a bundle to Dock Watch
man Edward Robson. Customs officers
at once seized the bundle, opened it,
found it contained $40 worth Of opium,
and arrested both the men.
A great syndicate, with headquarters
in Hongkong, is believed to make reg
ular shipments of opium and Chinese
to Seattle and San Francisco.
