CHINESE BOYCOTT
AMERICAN GooDS7
At San Francisco Meeting Was Held to
Plan Against Their Alleged
Unfair Treatment.


The San Francisco Chronicle says;
ga boycott of American goods which
is to extend all over China is the plan
formulated at meeting at the head
quarters of the local Chinese chamber
of commerce, and now circulars are to
be sent to the merchants societies of
China asking their aid and cooperation.
"The boycott is to be undertaken by
an organization entitled the League of
Justice, formed at the meeting in the
Chinese Chamber Of Commerce. More
than 500 representative citizens of
Chinatown were present at the meeting,
all of whom signed the roll of member
ship.
"The reason for the boycott which is
to be attempted, and the object, was
explained as follows: 'The Chinese, not
only in San Francisco but throughout
the country in general, have felt fol
some time that they were not being
treated with the justice and equity that
they have right to expect. In the
matter of placing the detention sheds
at Angel island we feel that we have
been treated unfairly. We have ap
pealed to Washington, but nothing ha
been done for us, and we are tired o.
being fed on promises"

ADMITS HE TOOK BRIBE OF $4,000
Member of Illinois Legislature Says
the Money Came From the
Democrats.

Springfield, ILL.,, May 2s.-Bursting
like a bomb within a few hours after
United States Senator Lorimer IS speech
at Washington, State Senator John
Broderick, leading Chicago Democrat,
was indicted on a bribery charge by
the grand jury here today. Broderick g
indictment was the direct result of
confession made to the grand jury by
State Senator d. w. Holstlaw of Iuka,
ILL.,, who said Broderick paid him $4,000
to vote for Lorimer for senator. A
capias was at once ordered for Brod-
erick and bench warrant issued for his
arrest.
The unexpected turn in the Lorimer
scandal was an offshoot of State Attor-
ney Burke IS investigation of alleged
graft in the legislature furniture deal.
Senator Holstlaw had been indicted on
perjury charge in connection with
the furniture contract, and upon the
advice of his lawyers, when offered i'm
munity, agreed to make a confession.
Then he told the grand jury that he
had received $4,000 for his vote for
Lorimer, $500 as his share of legisla.
tive "jackpot, and promise of $500
as his share of the statehouse furniture
deal.
Senator Holstlaw's confession regard
ing the furniture deal was corroboratec
before the grand jury by Otto FREEZER
who, as agent for the Ford-Johnsor
Furniture company of Chicago, obtained

Anxious Moment at Storm King.

countered Storm King mountain and all
it's terrors. What the water navigators
have said of it was none too strong to
express the view of the aeronaut. The
zigzagging motion of the earlier trou-
bles now gave place to pitching and
lurching and made Mrs. Curtiss blanch
with fear and hold tight to the window
ledge.
