They Don’t Want Any of ‘Uncle Sam’s Leavings.” -—_—_ A LAW TO FIT THE CAS ena NEW YORK, Nov. 27.—The immigration ofticials at Ellis Island have received in- formation from Commissioner Vandusen, stationed at Halifax, N. S., that the Ca- nadian authorities are getting into a fer- ment over the work of the United States inspectors, The people of Halifax complain that pau- pers, crippies ang criminals are “dumped” in Canada by the United States officers. An editorial in a Halifax newspaper says: “Large numbers of immigrants are expect- ed to arrive here this winter. The Ameri- can officers now here can prevent any un- desirable immigrant from taking passage to the United States. They will then have to stay in Canada, and we will have to take; Uncle Sam's leavings. They will be pen- sioners on the charity of Halifax. The peo- ple of this city have a pretty hard task in caring for their own poor, and if we are compelled toa provide for 100 or more un- desirable immigrants this winter the mat- ter should receive prompt attention from the city council. The Dominion govern- ment having placed f€ in the power of American officers to dump refuse immi- grants upon thig country must be ealled HARRY WRIGHT RELEASED. The Philadelphia Base Ball Manager Must Give Way to Another. Harry Wright, who for the last ten years has been manager of the Philadelphia Base Ball Club, has been released by the pro- prietors of that organization. Arthur Ir- win, last year’s manager of the Washington team, is spoken of as his successor. It has been known for some time that the officials were dissatistied with the standing of the club during the past season. They had fully expected to win the champion- ship, and while the téam was out west on its last western trip Colonel Rogers sent Manager Wright a telegram, saying that he would hold the manager personally re- sponsible for third place. The Phillies fin- ished fourth and the action of the pro- prietors may probably be the outcome of that. He has been at the head of the Phil- adelphia club since 1 and is, perhaps, the most widely known man in base ball circles, The past season was his twenty-sixth consecutive season of active connection with professional base ball. He first came into prominence as a member of the famous Cincinnati Red Stocking team in — 1868, which in 1869 gave to professional base ball the impetus which made it soon after be- come the national game. In 1871 he became manager of the Boston club of the old National sociation, and each season, from IN72Z to 1875 inclusive, his team won the pennant. In 1877 and 1878 the Boston team, under his management, were again champions. After eleven years’ service with Loston he was for two years maneger of the Providence team, and in ond became manager of the Philadelphia club. It was no fault of Manager Wright that Philadelphia did not win. His men weak- ened. He couldn't supply the nerve they lacked. soe THE WIZARD W Jacob Schaefer Surprises the Billiard World by Beating Ives.

It was that “any master or agent of any vessel who brings into or leaves a poor or indigent person Hable to become chargeable to Halifax shall be fined $200 and imprisoned sixty days.” The steamship companies were notified that the law would henceforth be enforced. An incident is told, with humorous pa- thos, of two immigrants who became stranded in Halifax with their families. They were bound for this country, but the United States officers refused them pass- ports. The mayor of Halifax gave them work in his private business. As soon as they received their first pay the workmen vanished, leaving their wives and children to be cared for by the cit: eee THE PORTLAND SMUGGLING RING.

Narrow Escape From Serious Disaster of the Steamer Nacooche. NEW YORK, Nov. 27—The steamer Nagooche, Capt. Smith, which arrived at che, this pert last night from Savannah, had a narrow escape from serious disaster while proceeding to sea from Savannah. The Nacooche was in collision with the British steamer Strathavon, the latter striking her on the starboard side, abaft the forerigging. The Nacooche had her stem badly twisted out of shape from the hawse pipe to some distance below the water line. All the particulars regarding the cause of the collision were refused at the dock this morning. The Nacooche will go on dock for repairs. The Strathavon returned to Savannah. —_—_—_.

The contest was by all odds the greatest in the history of billiards, as both players have broken all previous records of high runs and averages, and both are unques- tionably the leading performers of the world at this style of game. At the close of Friday night's play the Score stood: Ives, 3,200; Schaefer, 2,695, with Ives in hand and a run of five to his credit to start with and the balls in very fair position near the rail, Schaefer played brilliant billiards toward the finish, while Ives’ playing was bad and kept getting worse. He was evidently rattled by the rapidity with which Schaefer gained on him. The wizard broke for 67 and 51 con- secutively, all great billiards, and at the close of the 27th inning he lacked only three of tieing Ives. The score stood 3,816 to 3,813. He made a bad miss on wrong English, but Ives did worse and the crowd yelled with delight. In the 28th inning the spectators became boisterous with enthusiasm, first at Schae- fer’s lead and then at the audacity of genius as displayed by the wizard in a series of round-the-table caroms of the most difficult kind. Shout after shout went up after ea shot, and even tin horns were blown. Such a scene has never been witnessed before at a billiard match. At the close of the 38th inning the score stood: Ives, 3,81 Schaefer, 3,8 Schaefer continued his steady playing and won the match, the score at the close standing: Schaefer, 4,000; Ives, 3.945, The following is the score by innings: Ives, 3,200—29, 4, 6, 113, 4, 3, . , 24, 48, night, 745. 360, 280, 2, 8, ce + AMATEUR SPARRING The C. A. C. Arranging for a Splendid Program This Week. The sparring bouts at the Columbia Ath- letic Club on Thanksgiving evening prom- ise to be the best given during the season. The committees have arranged to bring together a good many of the most protis- ing young boxers of the District, and the friends of several of those who are sup- posed to be in championship form are look- ing forward to these contests with great interest. Several of the best men from the Philadelphia and Wilmington clubs will contest with Washington for the suprem- acy, and some lively bouts are anticipated. Joe Bateman, the champion 110-pound man of the C. A. C., will meet Docherty, the best man produced by the Wilmington club for years. Docherty won the cham- pionship bout at the Neptune Club in Hal- timore on Friday night last, and his ad- herents claim that he will lower Bateman’s | colors in short order. last Saturday evening an athletic “smoker” was given at the C. A. C., for which a most attractive program had been arranged by the committee, of which Dr. W. R. King is chairman. ‘The gymnasium was filled to the doors with the members and friends of the club. ‘The program in- | cluded a variety of athletics and a number of new athletes made their first public ap- pearance, inion Favorable to the Roby Athletic Clu Attorney General Smith of Indiana will submit today to the secretary of state an opinion on the Roby controversy that is | likely to cause something of a sensation, |The new Roby Athletic Ciub demanded of the secretary of state his reasons in | black and white why he would not permit | it to file articles of association, and the let- ter was submitted to the attorney general. | This opinion is in reply, | in it the attorney ‘general holds that the | McHugh law, under which the club seeks to incorpor is perfectly valid; there- fore “cont of science and skill” ar. | rot unlaw Such being the case the |secretary has no rizht whatever to refuse | the priv! » of filing duplicate articles of | assoc Having tiled with the re- | corder of Lake county, it is already a valid | corporation.

The Richmond Times Creats a Sensa- tion by Charging the Use of Money. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. RICHMOND, Va., Nov. 27.—The “honest elections” warfare now being waged by the Times (dem.) is reaching almost sen- sational proportions, Not content with the expose made in the gubernatorial contest, the paper now charges “improper influ- ence” being brought to bear upon the mem- bers of the new legislature in the United States senatorial contests. The editorial to this effect has created consternation in the ranks of the democracy. The paper printed a letter from R. F. Hutcheson of Charlotte county upon the | “interference of raiiroads’” in the election of members of the legislature recently, with a view to the election of judges of the supreme court of appeals, and of a certain candidate for the United States senator- ship. No names are called in either the let- ter or editorial, but the two principal can- dates, as is well known, are Gen. Fitzhugh Lee and Thomas S. Martin. The latter has been connected with a railroad for many years as counsel. The editorial, among other things, says: “We are informed that of a contribution made by certain of the railroads, intenued for the campaign fund of the executive committee for legitimate expenses, itot one- half ever reached the chairman, but was dispensed by this subordinate railroad of- ficial in furtherance of the candidate for the United States Senate of his personal choice, and that this was done in disregard of the wishes, if not the direct orders, of his superiors.” Continuing the editorial says: “It will be interesting to learn from this subordinate why he failed to deliver ail the funds to the chairman of the democratic party, and whether he intended that any one receiving from him any part of that fund should be- Neve that it was given in the interest of any particular candidate for the United States Senate.” ““Phis statement,” the article says in con- clusion, “reveals a distressing and mortify- ing condition of things, but it is made that the people of Virginia may be put on their guard and learn the potency of money in politics.”” es SEEKING RECIPROCITY, Deputy Finance Minister Courtney Sent to Washington by C; din. NEW YORK, Nov. 27.—A special from Ottowa, Ont., says: Deputy Finance Min- ister Courtney, who was sent to Washing- ton by the dominion government to watch and report the progress of the ways and means committee, has been authorized to make proposals by which Canada will make certain modifications upon American pro- ducts if met in a reciprocal spirit by Con- gress. The placing of coal om the free list is one of the concessions the dominion goy- ernment is willing to make.

In passing upon an application for a liquor license recently, the attorney for the applicant, when his attention was called to the fact that the application did not bear the requisite number of signatures, claimed | that ft did if the board did not consider the signature of a corporation. He argued at some length that a corporation had no right to sign an application for liquor license, and that the Commissioners should not con- sider a signature from it as necessary. He clted several authorities, and finally prayed the Commissioners to send the papers to the attorney for his opinion on the subject. This was done, and Mr. Thomas reported the case back to the Commissioners today holding hat if the corporation was the owner of real estate, 0} location of the bar-room. It was & pores within the meaning of the law, and its s. s nature was necessary, unless the applicant has # majority without it. —_—— DISTRICT GOVERNMENT. ~o Obstructing Sidewalks. Lieut. Amiss of the first precinet police station has called the attention of the Com- missioners through Major Moore to an ex- isting irregularity for the pfevention of which the Police Court can find no law. The foot pavement on the south side of B street northwest between 7th and 12th northwest, where the bona fide gardeners and farmers are allowed to sell their truck, is now occupied daily by twenty or more hucksters who live in the city and purchase | what they sell from the commission mer- | chants. These hucksters were arrested and | taken into the Police Court and charged | with obstructing the sidewalk. The point | was raised by counsel for the defendants that they were not obstructing the sidewalk any more than the gardeners and fa>mers, and consequently the cases were dismissed. The hucksters went back and occupied the foot pavement as before, and are now, ac# cording to Lieut. Amiss, gradually crowd- ing the farmers and gardeners out. He sug- gests as a remedy for this growing evil that a new police regulati@m be passed by which the evil complained of can be reme- died. More Light. A long petition bearing the names of a large number of property holders and resi- dents of K street between 12th and 1th | streets and 13th street between K and L southeast has been received by the Com- missioners, praying for more light In that section, There is no part of the city, the | petition states, that needs light more Three Days More. | Only three days more remain in which | taxes can be id. After that time, a pen- | alty of 2 per cent per month is added,which, | if allowed to ran any length of time, counts | up considerably Just at this ‘time there fs a jam at the } District building. Property owners, for some unaccoun reason, invariably hoid off until the last few days to pay their tax- es, and the result is they are compelled to | stand in line, sometimes for hours, before | they can get a chance to interview the | cashier. This morning there wae a long line waiting for a chance to pay taxes, but there | is but one cashier, and these days he goes | | without his lunch fer the purpose of ac- | | commodating the public.

Page 10 Page 10 Page 10 Page 10 Addresses Delivered at 2 Mass Meet- ing Yesterday Afternoon. A mass meeting of the Journeymen Tail- ors’ Union, No. 188, was held yesterday afternoon at Red Men's Hall. In calling the meeting to order President Weinstein said that its object was to stimulate union- ism among the tailors of Washington and to better the miserable condition which prevailed among the craft in this city. He introduced Mr. John B. Lenmon of New York city, general secretary of the union. He addressed the audience as comrades. He could say little that they did not al- ready know, but he might say it perhaps in a new way. He disclaimed being a pro- fessional agitator, was not an orator and could only talk to them as he would to a brother at the shop board. It had been/ said that he had been in the city for sev- eral days without caliing on the tailors. This was untrue. The present Jabor dis- tress showed the necessity of firm and compact labor organization. In his city there had been reductions of 40 per cent/ in the wages of men employed in non-union houses, but no union stoge had dared to suggest such a thing. Prices had been re- duced in Washington during the past two or three months. In some cities they were fighting against reduction, and in a large | majority of instances were winners. It was strange that there should be any journey- men tailors outside the union. He cited many instances of the blessings which flow- | ed tom unionism. The wages paid tailors | in New York were the highest in the world. they were able to control the trade there, notwithstanding the fact that they had enrolled in the membership of the New York unions but 1,706 out of the 17,000 tail- ors of that city. Where there was organi- zation of labor there would be found the highest wages. It was the perfect organi- zation. of the bricklayers which had made it possible for them to get $4.50 for eight hours’ work. The improvement in labor was not due to any other cause than or- ganization. “With these facts in view, why do you hold batk?” Bad Cordition in Washington. The condition could not be worse in Washington than it was. Men were slaving their lives away in the back rooms of their homes and under the beds. They should not turn their homes into shops. Employers had no right to demand it. If unionism did nothing else but to abolish home drudgery it would be a mighty biess- ing. Home work was an injury to the fam- fly. Statistics taken in various cyies of Europe showed that the men who worked in their homes turned out a far greater per- centage of prostitutes, loafers and bums than did those men who confined their ia- bor to the shop, factory or mill. Home labor had a depressing effect on all the fal They ought to sit beside each other in the shop and know what the other was doing. There should be fraternity and operation between them. The system was the result of the greed of employers, who were utterly heartless as to their fel- low-men. He wanted six days’ work per week. He did not Speak from a religious point of view. Men must have a day of rest. The trouble with the Washington union is not that the members do not pay their dues, but that they do not attend their meetings, Must Attend Meetings. He would rather strike against a man who failed to attend the meeting of his union than against a man who worked for reluced pay. In New York if a member failel to attend twice in succession he was waited on by a committee and if no satis- factory reason was forthcoming his di: charge was demanded. Some New Yorkers had to travel forty miles to attend. He spoke of the great growth of the organiza- tion until the tailors’ union was now one of the strongest iabor organizations in the country. Ii they could not get their righis under existing parties they would have one of their own. Labor was building up the greatness of the nation, and was refused the result of its industry. The results of | labor went to those Who never worked. All the legislation in the interest of labor had been due to labor organizations. In New — the democrats claimed the credit of the Australian ballot and in Ohio the re- publicans.

Capitalists were combining on all sides. They were right. Labor, if it expected to ward off oppression, must likewise organize. 3 President Weinstein made a few appro- priate remarks. He said that nine-tenths of the tailoring work of Washington w: done in Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York and Cincinnati. Last summer had been the! dullest Which Wastington tailors had ever | experienced, and this s@asoh the trade was pitilessly siow. The bosses were doing what they could to prevent organization because it was in the interest of labor. They wanted to buy labor as cheaply as possible. Laborers wanted to sell it as dcarly as possible, therefore they must combine. There were over 200 journeymen tailors in Washington and one-half were | out of work.
