Né should be permitted to enter tue United States, without tuo certifioate provided for in the treaty. It had been the pur- pose of C to prevent the “prior residents” from returning to the United States, for OTHERWISE ALL CHINA MIGHT COME IX? under a claim of prior residence, which it would ‘be Impossible to disprove. ‘Mr. Morrow added that if the news of the rejec- tion of the treaty should be confirmed the Caitfor- ia members Would ask Congress to pass a bill re- quiring the President to give six months’ notice to the Chinese government that thereafter no Cht- hese, except diplomatic, cousular, and other off. cers of tue Chinese iment, will be permitted to enter the United States. ‘That notice would amount, to the revocation and abrogation of all assertec rights of the Chinese to enter tis country. DOES NOT FEAR CHINESE RETALIATION. ‘Mr. Morrow did not appear to fear retaliation by China, saying that there were but 621 Americans, all told, resident in that country. He believed that while the Chinese ment regarded the amended treaty as unduly stringent, the most Potent reason for the rejection of the treaty Was that it had prol been caugut in the revolving wheels of diplomatic negotia- Uons between China and Great Britain, The Cainess government has protested strongly against the action of the British government in returning @ sbip-load of Chipamen from Aus- tralia as an ndly act, and it was probable that in the ensuing negotiations the English gov- ernment has dragged into the discussion the policy Of the United States questioning the Justice of the Protest against the exclusion of Chinese from Australia while the Chinese governinent was about to ratify a treaty permituing the United States to reject such immigrants. In Mr. Morrow's Judgment the rejection of the treaty Would be advantageous to California in the end, ag 1t Would result in such legisiative action on the part of our Government a8 would effectually pro- Veet It against Chinese invasion. Further legisla- on Would necessarily cover the defects of the ex- isting treaty and existing legislation, MR. FELTON’S OPINION. Mn. Felton said he had always regarded the treaty as worthless without the senate amend- ments. Nothwithstanding the claim that te Chinese goveruient does not desire 11s people to etulgrate,. the history of thelr emigration for "the tres hundred years dis- proved tt, and the millions of money the emigrants’ yearly remit to China certainly made iv desirable for the empire. He did not regard wie | rejection of the Ueuty as a cause for regret, as he had never beileved that the Chine government would negouate a treaty that effe Tually_ excludes Chinese from Western nations, Mr. “Felton believed that the people wouid Secure the desired rellet through legislation, He also believed that the agitation of the question, in Australia was the real cause for the ac- Uon of the Chinese government, and added that if both political partiés were in. earnest In their expressions they might secure the passage of a bill even during the present session of Dongress On the line of that already introduced by him, and intended to secure the exclusion of the Chinese, ‘MR. VANDEVER'S VIEWS. Mr. Vandever said it appeared that the Senate amendment had caused the rejection of the treaty which had been ratified before the amendment was attached. Undoubtedly British influence had brought about the result, OPIN\ONS OF THE CALIFORNIA SENATORS. As the Senate was not in session to-day and there were very few Senators at the Capitol, the news that China had refused to ratify the restrie- Uon treaty did not receive the attention on that side of the Capitol 1t otherwise would have had, Senator Coke said to a Stax reporter tual Congress can regulate the question of Chinese immigration by legislation, and “will Just chop them right off short,” he added, ‘Senator Culiom remarked, “Another of Grover’s treaties gone.

SOCIALISM, com MUNISM AND ANARCHY, What They Mean and What the Differ- ce is Between Them. From the New York Graphic. Socialisin may be broadly defined as the doctrine that society ought to be recognized on more har- monious and equitabie principies. The history of Socialism runs parallel with that of property. Wherever the power of individual proprietors has Decome oppressive its advocates have appeared. Such was the origin of the schemes of the ancient Greeks, Phaleans of Chalcedon expected graa- ualiy to remove the disparities of property by making a law that the rich should give but not receive a dower in marriage, and in order, that Bone should | be intellectually Superior to others he desired that should receive the same education, In Plato's ideal Tepublic Ube state Was to assign to every one Lis Tank and sphere of activity, tue soll Was to be the property of all and its fruits were to be shared equally by all, Among the earliest attempts at socialistic life was that of the Jewish sect known as the Essenes, which had established themselves ‘on the Western shores of the Dead Sea about the second century B.C.

" For the expenditure. of $40,000 the Government now had 4 hole in the ground and @ magnificent boara fence, It seemed that the Governinent with an overflowing treasury was a gray goose whicu anybody could pluck; and he thought Uthat Congress should curetully consider the expediency of abandoning the present plan and staruing on Ube Work afresh with another archi- Vet, Me asked Mr. Houman, who 1s cuairman of Uhe Special comualttee investigating the subject, to furnish the House with facts that would throw some light on it, FOU MILLION WILL CONSTRUCT THE WEST HALF OF ‘THE BUILDING, ‘Mu Holman said he was not yet quite ready to Teport the result of the investigation, as there was yeb some testimony he desired, but that the facts were substantially as have been already devel in the — debate, In this great excavation which has been made there 1s, of course, am immense space which will not be covered by that butiding. To construct. a building upen pian No, 1, including the rotunda or reading room, ample for the present and for vwenty-tive years, perhaps fifty years to come, will cost $4,- 000,000 or more.

Mr. Kelly defended Mr. Smithmeyer. Ho sald: “My attention was attracted to Mr. Smithmeyer years ago by the consideration of his plans for Congressional Library, and Iremember the de- ligut with which 1 frst saw and subsequently studied his plans for the magnificent gothic ex- terior in Which he first proposed to encase the tn- verlor of the Library bullding. It stood there in front of the clerk's desk through a whole sessio1 and rivaled, according to my judgment, in ‘beaut the finest gothic buildings I had sten on the other side of the Atlantic. “I treely confess that I am an admirer of the genius of John L. smith- meyer, and in a greater degree of ‘the zeal with which ne pursues, even now whea he has passed ssibly the prime of life, all the latest ideas of the ighest authorities on architecture as the archi- tectual publications in English, French, and Ger- man give them to the world. ‘I speak’ whereot I know Of this man, for hisofitce has been a haunt for my lelsure hours, and for eight years when T'bave been In Jasuingion we have messed to- getuer, IT know any living man I know this Abused and reviled architect, wno, without pay from Congress, for fourteen years competed with the world in preparing a plan for a National Library Building which should ve worthy of the grandeur of his adopted country, and would there- fore immortalize his name.” ‘Mr. Caswell.—I think the gentleman ts mistaken onone point. I think there 1s an item of $1,500 paid to Mr. Smithmeyer for plans which were sub- mitted but not adopted. Mr. Kelley.—There Was_a competition at one tme in which prizes of $1,500, $1,000, and $500, re- spectively, were offered. Tor ‘plans, and although the plan that Mr. Sunithmeyer submitted may not then have been adopted it Was proved beyond any other ellcited by Ul neral system of competition, and it seems that ts to hts great discredit in the estimation of the gentleman from Wisconsin (Mr. Caswell) that his plan was so much better than the othefs that he Got the $1,500 prize! Mr, Kelley favored the sen- ate amendment, and thought it very wise to put the Engineer of” the Army in charge of the work, in place of the Commission, He Urged the com pletion of the work. ‘Mr. Hooker detended the action of Mr. Singleton, of Miss., in nis work in Congress to secure the building, and declared that the House distinctly undersidod that the estimates made in the report were for that part of the building it was proposed to complete at once. Mr. Clements spoke in favor of caution and economy, aud thought that Congress had been misled into an extravagant en He said there was hardly any controversy over the fact that the last Congress was made to believe that $3,000,000 would complete the whole work, CONGRESS NOT MISLED.

Greely says in his reply: “It 18 justice to the men of the Signal Corps serving in Florida tosay that no one of these men have expressed, either directly or indirectly, any Wish or inclination to quit their stations and duties.
