MgvawwmrB 1 t- I CHINESE BARRED OUT, They Will Have Xo Chance at All to Come to the United States.- FOR THE KBIT SCOEE OP TEARS If Congressman Slump's Proposed Should Eecorae a Law. Bill WHAT CONGRESS MAT DOTHIS WEEK "VTASHnfGTOK, D. C., Jan. 21. Repre sentative Stumpf of Maryland, Chairman of the House Committee on Immigration, has prepared a bill absolutely prohibiting the coming of Chinese laborers into the United States for a period of 20 years, which he will lay before the committee at an early day. Mr. Stump has considerable knowl edge of the effects of Chinese immigration, having been a member of the House Com mittee of the last Congress that visited the Pacific coast and conducted an investiga tion on the subject His bill is a long one, of IS sections, and drawn with careful at tention as to details. Mr. Stump invites criticism of any feat ures of the bill from persons interested in the subject. Its principal provisions are as follows: It is made unlawful for a period of 20 years after the passage of the act for any Chinese laborers, whether subjects of the Chinese Umpire or any other foreign gov;, ernment, includinc those now here and who may hereafter leave the country and at tempt to return here, and those who have never been here, or, having been here, have departed therefrom, to come within or eross the boundaries of the United States or to come to or within, to land or remain at anv port or place within the United S'.3tes. This provision applies to Chinese laborers who come to the United States for the purpose of transit only, as well as to those who come for any other purposes. .So Chinese to Be Allowed In. The coming of any Chinese persons, other than laborers, is also absolutely prohibited, except as hereafter provided for. The words "laborer or laborers" are to be construed to mean both skilled and unskilled laborers. All Chinese other than laborers desiring to pass through, or over any portion of the United States in transit, or to visit the country temporarily for any purpose will be required to obtain a permit from the United States consul at the port of departure, spec ifying the object, etc., of their visit, and containing a personaldescription of them selves and of those persons accompanying them. Any Chinese merchant now residing in the United States and doing a business of which the vale amount to at least f 10,000 per year, desirimr temporarily to visit abroad will be allowed to return to the United States provided he establishes satis factory evidence of the above facts before his departure. Xothing contained in the act is to pre vent the coming into the country of Chi nese persons who may be duly accredited to the United States Government as Ministers Plenipotentiary, Ambassadors, or other diplomatic representatives, Consuls Gen eral, consular and commercial agents, and other officers of the Chinese or other gov ernments traveling upon the business of their governments, with their immediate families and body and household servants. I'tinislin-ent for Breaking the Law. The master of any vessel knowingly bringing into the country anv Chinese per sons in violation of law will be liable to punishment, and every vessel whose master knowingly violates jny of the provisions of the act will be deemed forfeited to the United States. It is made the duty of all Chinese persons now in the United States to register before an officer of the United States within f.ve months after the passage of the act, and to apply for a resident cer tificate granting them permission to remain within the United States. Persons found thereafter unprovided with a certificate as recjuired by the act will be liable to deporla ftmp, unless they can show that by some un avoidable causes they had been unable to jirocure'their certificate, and that they were residents of the United States at the time of the passage of the act. It is made un lawful for common carriers to transport or for anyone to employ any Chinaman who does not first exhibit his certificate of regis tration as required by the act Fines May Be Worked Out. "When a Chinaman is convicted of any crime by a United States Court, or of vio lation of any of the provisions of this act, and ordered to be deported to China, it may be lawful to order and direct that the convict pay a fine not exceeding SOTO and costs of conviction and deportation. In case of failure to do so, he shall be com pelled to labor upon some Government work long enough to satisfy said fine and -o.ts, at the rate of 1 per dav and rations. The penalty for the commission of crimes against the United States bv Chinese per sons (except those of a capital nature of the first degree) shall be deportation to China. Any Chinese person entering the United States bv way of contingous foreign ter ritory shall be deemed as having come di rectly from China, and shall be deported to China unless he claims to be, and produces reasonable proof that he is, a citizen of such contiguous foreign territor-. -So State or United States Court is here after to admit Chinese to citizenship. "What Congress -Uay Do This Week. The course of proceedings in Congress during the ninth week of the session de pends largely upon the manner in which the President's message and the Chilean correspondence are received. The proba bilities, however, are strongly aga!nst the matter being precipitately taken up for con sideration by either branch of the National Legislature or against any discus sion of the subject immediately on receipt of the President's mes sage. The usual formal course, doubt less, will be followed in each house of Con gress by referring the message and the ac companying correspondence to the appro priate committee. Pending considera tion in committee the message and correspondence will be printed. After members have thus had. an opportunity to inform themselves from the official history of the trouble, some of them may desire to be heard on the floor; but the disposition of the most influential men in the Senate and in the House is adverse to any unusual haste in the consideration of the subject. It is expected that the promised message of the President and all the corres pondence relating to our trouble with Chile will be sent to Congress to-morrow. Such is the intention of the Executive this even ing, and unless the case should suddenly assume some new phase requiring an addi tion to the message, it will be laid before both Houses and read in both of them to morrow afternoon. The Senate Chestnut Once Store. s In the Senate the hill reported bv the Joint Committee on Printing, proposing an vcxjensi ve revision of the present system of priming ar.u uistnouting public documents, is the special order for to-morrow. In view of the fact that the bill was killed in the House during the past week, the Senate will probably set aside the special order and take up the well known 'Weil and La Abra claims, which were under considera tion when the Senate last adjonrned. It is the purpose of the friends of these claims to keep them steadilv belore the Senate until 1 a vote is reached upon the bill of which thev are the subject matter. The printing bill, it is thought, will be taken up later in the week, and some time may be devoted to public buildings and other measures of a local character and to the consideration of Presidental nominations iu executive ses sion. Comlnz Scrnp Over the Xfw Utiles. The newly reported code of rules for the louse of lprcsentatives during the'Fifty econd Congress will be the principal topic r discusser, in the House during the week, J -less a acuatc on tne Unilcan controversy ould be unexpectedly -precipitated.' Owing to the political issues which may be i reviewed in this anticipated lively debate i over the rule!, it cannet be predicted how lonp a time will intervene between the taking up and the adoption of the new code. The Appropriations Committee is prepar ing an urgency deficiency bill to continue the work of the Census Bureau, and it will ?irobablc be ready for consideration in the louse during the -week. The Military Affairs Committee is in session almost every dav on the army appropriation bill or the military academy appropriation bill, and with tlie next ten days one of these meas ures is expected to be on the calendar ready for consideration at the will of the House. GARZA LOCATED AGAIN. The Bandit to Be Captured or Killed In Ten Dats His Band Broken Into Parties of Two or Three Eachr-Troop to Remain Inactive Till Sprlnj. Sax Antonio, Jan. 24. Major Lewis T. Morris, ThW Cavalry, who has been in command of the Government forces at Laredo for a month past, has reached here in response to an order to report to General Stanley in person. He says the Garza bands have broken into parties of two or three persons and are protected by ranch men on this side of the river who are un doubtedly in sympathy with Garza. The United States forces will do nothing until spring when the grass comes up, as it is impossible to carry forage through the ch apparel, and in the matter of grass thet country is as bare as a billiard table. It is learned here that Garza has been ex actly located by the United States troops. He will be a prisoner or a dead man inside often days. Adjutant General Mabrey is endeavoring to induce him to come in and surrender and stand trial or violation of the neutrality laws. If he refuses he will be attacked. SOCIETY ETJDS OPPOSED TO TIGHTS. AtFashlonable Entertainment Blocked by the Costumes Considered Necessary. Springfield, Mass., Jan. 24. Special' Springfield society is in something of a stew because 12 of its loveliest girls, who had been selected to take part in a Ben Hur entertainment for sweet charity's sake, have refused to don the tights and abbreviated skirts provided by the management The entertainment, which will be in the nature of a spectacular and pantomime, is under the management of W. C Clark and D. W. Cor, of Boston, who recently brought 12 men over, with all the necessary scenery and costumes, and will share the proceeds with the Hampden County Children's Aid Society. The local committee of arrange ments is composed of the leaders in local society. There are to be 150 persons in the cast. Most of the important parts had been as signed, and the young society buds had gone to much expense in furnistiing costumes of their own, which they wore at the first re hearsal one day last week. The Boston di rector shocked the girls by saying that their homemade costumes were not suitable- for the presentation of the play. Then he reached down into his trunks and hauled forth some gauzy creations of the consumer's skill, which one piquant miss described as '"a cross between a full dress costume and a bathing suit." They positively refused to appear before the public in such gar ments, and there the matter rests at present A MAEEUGE OF MILLIONS. John Unszlts' Widow Weds a Very Wealthy New Tork Merchant. New York, Jan. 24. Special Mrs. John Ituszits, the widow of the late John Eutzits, who died a year ago, and who was called the future "King of New York," was married Thuisday afternoon to 'Wel come G.

Sue Have s but Declines to Shont Over the Grand Winter Scene. LOCKPORT, N. Y., Jan. 24. .Special. Adelina Patti visited Niagara Falls to day with her husband and her manager. The- drove up to the Kelton Beach Hotel oerlooking the rapids, at about noon, and after a sumptuous dinner took an extended drive. The Falls was in all the grandeur of its winter garb, and Patti was as enthusias tic over its beauties as a young girl over her first doll. "It is grand, superb." said the songstress; "look at the effects of light and shade. Isn't that view pf the islands perfectly grand. See how soft and beautiful the snow covered btnks and trees appear and blend with the blue of the waters. Ob! What a brilliant scene that would make! I feel just like shouting," impulsively exclaimed Patti. Nicolini and Mr. Stroffel, fearful that the lair singer would really shout, cautioned her not to use her voice, as it might injure it "Never fear," replied the diva, "I will look after that." All the points of interest were visited. CUSS LEAVES TJ3. He Is Wanted Oat West to Explain a Series or Petty Forgeries. A few days ago word was received at po lice headquarters in this city from T.

The Motives of Mr. Miller, the Igal Gnar dlan of Mrs. Aultman, the Millionaire Widow, Impugned by Two ladles He Denies All the Imputations. Canton, Jan. 24. Special This city has another sensation. On December 5 Levi L. Miller, Cashier of the First National Bank, was appointed guardian of Mrs. C Aultman, widow of the late millionaire manufacturer of, Canton, Akron and Mans field, on the ground that she was mentally incompetent to take care of her property. Her two intimate companions, the Misses Bist, were dismissed. To-tiay, in an interview, Mrs. Aultman protested against the appointment of a guardian. The Misses Bast charge that their removal was brought about by Mr. Miller, through an order of court, because he feared their brother, John Bast, a mer chant here, intended to marry Mrs. Ault man, and this would interfere with Mr. Miller, as. he was supposed to be her bene ficiary under a will made some time ago.

"The statements charging me with improper motives arc simply absurd, and I have had no end in view save Mrs. Aultman's comfort and welfare." Mr. Miller has been Superintendent of the First Methodist Sunday school, and is one of the leading business men of the city. It is understood the Misses Bast may take action to contest the guardianship. DIAGNOSIS OF A BUNION. How It Differs From a Corn and WSftt the Best Treatment Is. rwMTTEJ. FOB THE DlglM-TCH. A bunion consists in a swelling under the skin of the inner side of the ball of the' great toe. In its earlier stage it is a thin walled sac filled with clear fluid, and then causes very little uneasiness, but subse quently, in consequence of constant pres sure and friction from badly fitting boots and stockings, becomes hard and tender. Sometimes, particularly after active exer cise, the swelling becomes painful and in flamed, and forms an abscess. The begin ning and growth of a bunion is caused, in most instances, by a distortion of the great toe, and is much accelerated by the use of tight boots and by mucit walking. When the bunion is young, firm pressure with the fingers, or a sharp tap with a heavy object may cause it to burst alid bring about a cure. In cases where the swelling has existed for some time, and be comes hard and painful, very little can be done except to recommend boots made large and roomy over the toes, and with the sole thicker at the outer than at the inner edge, so that the foofin walking may be thrown more upon the outer side. "When the bun ion becomes very tender, and the skin cov ering it red and inflamed, the treatment should be immediate, and consists in rest, and the application of one or two leeches and warm flaxseed poultices. PROBLEM OF ST. PETER'S LAKE. How the Old Fellow -Managed to Save Those of His Own Faith. Pearson's "VVeeVlv. One of the most ancient of all traditions is that which is known as "St. Peter's Lake." It is aversion of a yet older Scan dinavian mathematical problem, which is to be found in most old Scandinavian Runic almanacks, or time measurements and dates from a period prior to Christiatiity. The tradition has been turned to good account by the old monks. The story goes that St Peter and a party of early Christians were on a voyage to some new mission station, when -they were overtaken by a severe storm, and it was found necessary to lighten the ship by throwing overboard half of the passengers. It was, therefore, determined -that every ninth man should be thrown out. There were 30 passengers in all, 15 Christians and 15 Jews; and it was said that St Peter was inspired to so place his fellow Christians that the count of ninth man always fell upon a Jew, he and the other 14 Christians being consequently saved. The following is the Bunic calculation as it stands, and by striking out evert' ninth figure, the 15 crosses, which represent the Christians, will be left: i XXXXIIIIIXXIXXXIXIIXXIIIXHXXI. A SHOE HAN'S TE0UBLE. He Is Arrested for Fraud, but Ears He Is theJVIctiin of Leather Men. Bochestek, N. Y., Jan. 24. Special. An order of arrest was yesterday served upon Jesse W. Hatch, one of the oldest shoe manufacturers of this city, in 3n action begun by Adolph Scheftel, of New York, against the Hatch Flexible Shoe Company. Mr. Hatch was ill at his residence, and bail to the amount of ?2,000 was promptly furnished. Tlie papers upon which the order was granted alleged fraud in the purchase of leather valued at 1.044 and allege false representationregarding the financial con dition of the company. Mr. Hatch says the charges of fraud are unqualifiedly false. He says he never made any representations as charged, and that agents were so anxious to sell to the company that they crowded on goods which he told them he "did not want Some Older People Agree.

Lively Conflict Between "Sew Orleans Athletic Clubs for ratronaje. COLLEGE BASEBALL TEAMS BUST That the officials of the local club mean to leave no stone unturned in their efforts to hnve everything in the best possible condition is a certainty. They have re solved to devote all the attention possible to the outfield at Exposition Park, and, with a view of making it first-class, they are negotiating with a gentleman in Chi cago to visit here and assist Groncd-Keeper Hebrank in laying out the ground. The Chicago gentleman has had consider able experience in laying out baseball grounds, and is looked upon as one of the best in the country. He laid out the Chi cago and Detroit grounds, and there are no better outfields in the world than those two. A letter was received from the gentleman on Saturday, and it is likely that he will be engaged this week. His engagement will in no way be a slight on Mr. Hebrank, as the former will come here simply to give the latter the benefit of his experience, and when the grounds are finished he will return to Chicago. Everybody who has been in Exposition Park must know that the outfield is one of the worst in the country. It is costly for both home and visiting teams alike and ex ceedingly unfair to the fielders. Nothing will give greater satisfaction to the players and the baseball public than the improve ment spoken of. Ex-Manager Hanlon has not signed a contract yet, but he expects to do so to-day or to-morrow. As soon as he"has sicned he and Manager Buckenberger will get to work and matare plans for team work, etc. The new manager is not inclined to sit on the players' bench, and that will place a great amount of responsibility on Captain Han lon. '"Buck" believes in allowing a captain to have something more than empty title, and he also believes that when responsibil ity is placed directly on a man he will be more energetic and more thoughtful in his work. The captain and the manager agree on this point, and as the opening ot the season will sodn be here they want to have matters thoroughly understood between them. THE BIVAL CLOTS. An Interesting Conflict Between the New Orleans Sporting Organizations. , New Or.LEANS, Jan. 24. Special It is war to the knife between the Olj'inpics and the Metropolitans. Tho clubs kept at arm's length and upon tolerable tetms until very recently. The opening of hostilities dates lrom the departme of Captain Williams upon a search for pugilists for the Olympics. One of tho matches ho had in sight w.is a meeting between Hall and Fitzsimmons at 153 pounds. Fiom Chiovgo the Captain re ported that tho outloolc was promising and that Hall would doubtless accept the chance to meet the New Zealander for a $7,000 purse! The Olympics charge that the moment the Mets .heard of the proposed match they Interfered and offered a $12,0X1 purse, which was more than tho fight was worth, and naturally debarred the Olympics fiom bid ing. Fitzsimuions is with the OlvmnicsClub. as is the entire pirty In Charee of Jnnmv Carroll, and besides that he did not relish the favoritism the Mets showed Hall nnd the club's attempt to aid Hall in foicing him into a flcht at catch w eights. That was one of the reasons which induced Fitzsimmons to consent to fls?ht Maher, the Irish heavy weight chninnion. The Olympics have fixed the match for Mai ch 2, the same night the Metropolitans pi opose to have the Uyan Xeedham. fisrlit. ad the mice of admission will be made tlie vame, the Olympics ex pecting to capture tho prico-flghtin-x pnnlic; thereby. Tho Olympics only Vartially ad mit the above and say that thev Uesiieto Ret the benefit of tho large number of visitors who will be h&te for Mardi Gras. The night following tlio carnival is the only possible date upon which the fight tan be held with that ond in view, so that there will have to bo two shows in ono night. Fitzsimmons is in tolerable shapenow and will go into training at once. Andy Bowen says hex will leave here the 20th to accept at Chicago. A LITTLE DOUBTFUL. Fjtstern Authorities Said to Be Timid of the 12-Cul League. New York, Jan. 21. Special. Before many weeks elapse the various clubs of the new baseball leagues will have completed their plans for the preliminary season and the players will be called from their homes to join their respective" teams. Some of tlie clubs have already mapped out a course lor a preliminary campaign on the diamond, and others will content themselves with indoor practice. As the regular chamnion ship season will open unusually eaily this year, there will be less oppoitnnity for exhibition games and many of those already agreed upon will have to be cancelled. Before the 12-clubLeague whb formed some of the magnates built castles in the air. They calculated that all that was necessary to harmony and the restoration or the game, to popularity was the consolidation ol tho League and the Association. Since then some or them have begun to realize that the 12-club League is a gigantic white elephant. When the schedule is presented this will be rooie apparent than usual. The National League members nro also' convinced that Von dor Ahe, Van der Hort. and tho 'Wagners stole a march on them. This is not a pleasing pill towallow, and those who hnve been worsted in the deal with tho Association are now more willing to grin and bear it than-to acknowledge that thej' have been worsted in the consolida tion. The dissatisfaction is more general than most pationa imagine. It hasnliesdy mani festcditseirin many ways, and betore the season opens tho NewYorks.Biooklyns.Phil ndelphiasand Chicagos are likely to mote openly display their dissatisfaction over the assignment of players, tho divison of gate receipts, Sunday ball and the sale of liquor on the ground. t About Sunday Gamer. ' Henry Chadwick, writing relative to the schedule of ball games ' for the coming sea son, says: Not :i single game of the League schedule for 1892 will be scheduled for Sun day. All clubs desirous of playing Sunday games will be given the option to chanso their regular schedule dates to Sunday, but the schedule itself will be made out only for week-day games. The League clubs w'hicli will not nlay Sunday games this vear are the Boston, New York and Philadelphia clubs in the East and the Chicago and Cleveland in tho West. It is uncertain about Brooklyn in tho Enst and Pittsburg in the West. 'Of course none of the Eastern clubs of tho East will piny Sunday games at home, but Brooklyn, Washington and Baltimore will play them out West. At Cincinnati the Law and Order Leaguo is taking measures to stop Sunday ball-plaving there this summer, but Sunday games will be a special feature at St. Louis and Louisville. Henri Is a Ulagnate.

Philadelphia, Jan. 24. John I. Rogers, as chairman of the committee appointed by the National League and American Association of Professional Baseball Clubs to formulate a new national agreement for the protection of the minor leagues, has drafted a new amendment. This new law is based upon the old agreement, but is very materially changed in many important particulars. A resume of the agreement shows that It is tri-partite, the fiist party being tho National Leaguo and American Association of Pro fessional Baseball Clubs; tho second party being "such eligible professional associa tions as shall, with tho assont of the Na tional Boaid, become signatory parties and ndraittcd to Class A: the third party will be such similar nrofessional associations as shall be admitted to Cass B. Class A is meant to include tho larger leagues, like the proposed i;.istern nnd 'Western Leagues. Class B will include all otbeis. Class A associations can contract with ther players for one, two or three seasons with the right of reseivation (where their contracts si e for ono season), and subject to the 'Selection" of their pla ers bv the party or the first part at the price of $750 for the release of each pl.iver. Tliey shall pay to the National Board $200 per clnb for a league oLeight clubs, or ir six clubs, $250 for each club, or $200 it of four clubs. Class B associations shall have the priv ilege oTsigning a plavcr for but one season, with or w Itliont the privilege or reservation as thev may elect, and subject to "selection" by clubs of parties of the first nartandby clubs of class A at the rate or 375 ror each player so selected ir entitled to reservation, and at the rate or $100 ror each player if not entitled to reservation. They shall pay to the boat d, if reservation be claimed, one halt of the amounts p"tid by class Aclnbs. and if not entitled to reseivaTion, $50 per year for each club. When a player under contract shall be ex pelled, suspended or, rendered ineligible, notice or such disqualification must be given to the board, which shall therewith so notiry all clubs under the agieement. No game shall be played between auy clnbs or any association acting under thensrreeraent when such clubs contain an ineligible Dlaver, nor with any clnb that has played with a team containing an yioligible, under penalty or suspension or exnnision. The same penalty applies to a club contracting for the release or transfer of players and failing to fulfill its agreement. Before any association shall be granted the privileges and protection of this agiee ment, it shall enact laws or regulations dc bariingany of its clnbs from entering into contract with anv player wliilo under ar rears of salary to him and from suspending or otherwise attempting to disqualify such player for.refusing to contract, while it is so m ai rears,' and shall alo piovido tor the ex pulsion of any club for refusal to pay ar rears of salaiy to a plaver when theieto re quited by said association or by the boaid. All tights of any association shall be for feited lor falling to expel any of its club members that may play a game of ball ex cept under the playing rules adopted by tho National League nnd Association of Piofes bionul Baseball Clubs. THE COLLEGE TEAM3. Some Great Activity Among Them and n Lively Season Expected. New TeitK, Jan. 24. Special. The college teams have been unusually active in ar ranging spring games. Yale, Princeton, Harvard, the University of Pennsylvania and other colleges have seized time by the forelock and made dates with the New York, Brooklyn, Philadelphia and other League and a number of Athlotio teams. The teams of tho colleges will bo constructed largely of now material next season. Many candidates are now at work in the cnge at Princeton, New Haven, Cambridge and Philadelphia. Thoe ,who show the greatest aptitude will be selected to uphold the honors of these institutions. Among the eollegiates the question or the possibilities of a triangular battlo between the teams or Yale, Harvaid and Princeton is being agitated again. The chances ate better npw than they have been for several seasons, nnd unless something arises that is not calculated on at present the differences that have prevented these thiee colleges from competing will bo overcome.

Billy Taylor, the pedestrian, who was the winnevof the walking match at the centen nial celebration in Philadelphia in JS76. died in Atlantic City, N. J., late Thursday night. The absence of the names of Tenny, Tour nament and Longstreet from the Morris Park entries shows tliat the wear and tear of that course on the horses named was con sidered ns inimical to their entire safety over that arduous Matterhorn hill. Ball players at the University of Pennsyl vania are to have a baseball cage for prac tice, the alnmni having promised to defray two-thirds of the cost if the undergraduates would raise the other third.
