This Done With a View to Having a New Commercial Treaty Made With China. Under date of April 8 Minister Denby wrote a letter to Secretary Gresham con- cerning the trade of China, in which he predicted that Japan in the peace treaty would endeavor to remcve many of the re- strictions on foreign trade. Discussing the lessons of the Japan-China war, Mr. Denby has submitted nineteen articles which ne thinks should be adopted in order to further trade relations and to insure greater pro- tection to foreign interests in China. It is understood that these suggestions are made with a view to having a new commercial treaty made with China, although the min- ister suggests in each instance that the ad- vantages desired be granted to foreign- ers without particularizing the United lates. Some of the advantages asked, it is understood, have been incorporated .in the peace treaty between China and Japan. Minister Denby’s suggestions, in part, are as follows: During war consuls of a friendly power acting for a belligerent to have all the ju- risdiction that its consuls had during peace. China to be opened to foreign residence, as western countries are. Missionaries to go where they please, and reside and buy land and be protected. Foreign goods to be subject to no taxa- tion except import duty until they reach the consumer. They are not to be taxed, as is now done, as soon as landed. No internal revenue tax to be laid on goods which discriminate against them, nor to be prohibitory, ror in any event to exceed 2 per cent, nor to be levied on for- eign goods unless a similar tax is levied on native goods of the same character. Local authorities shall have no power to provide that freight shipped in native bot- toms shall pay less export duty than freight shipped in foreign bottoms, and ex- port tax shall be uniform. Every port in Chira ordinarily used and frequented by sea-going ships shall be open to all the world. The coastwise duty of 2% per cent on goods sent down the Yangtze and intended to be sent abroad shall not be paid in spe- cie, but a bond shall be taken that if the goods are not exported in a certain time the coastwise duty shall be paid. Drawbacks are abolished and bonds are substitued for the payment of coastwise duties in order to relieve the commercial community from a useless expenditure. The Yangtze regulations to be amended or abolished. No bonds to be required that s00ds shipped from one point shall be deliv- ered in toto at another. The existing reg- ulation is entirely absurd. Private yachts, non-commercial ships, may ascend the Yangtze without taking out clearances at Chinkiang. The provincial authorities shall have no power to tax foreign goods for any purpose whatever. Such taxation shall be ordered by the central govert.ment only. Machinery may be imported. Foreigners may engage in manufacturing in China on the same terms as the natives. Libelous and scandalous publications af- fecting foreigners shall be vigorously sup- pressed. Stringent measures shall be taken to pre- vent anti-foreign riots, and if such occur the rioters shall be condignly punished, and, besides, damages shall be paid. All ports of China shall be open to foreign trade. This shall particularly apply to Peking or any other capital. The vicero; governors and_provine authorities shail be prohibited from treat ing international matters, except to settle claims due to foreigners. All other que tions affecting foreigners shall be cogniza- ble at the capital and by the central gov- ernment only. No viceroy or governor shall have power tc make any contract with foreigners for the purchase or supply of any material. All such contracts shall be made or authorized by the imperial or central government. + os POLICE COURT CASES, The Line of Prisoners Judges Today. ‘The bright sunshine and bracing air this morning were not enjoyed by the victims of the police who had to appear in Judge Kimball’s court, although they were out of doors a few minutes, but only long enough to be transported from one place to another. There were exceptions, however, for some of the victims were fortunate enough to talk themselves out of court. Rufus Jackson was the name one of them gave and the charge against him was vagrancy. Why the boy should have been arrested Judge Kimball could not tell, for, accord- ing to the evidence of Policeman Mohl, the boy was doing nothing but standing on the sidewalk. “I saw him there in Eckington, and he looked suspicious,” said the policeman, “and when I arrested him he could not give a good account of himself.” “What have you to say for yourself?” Rufus was asked. “Nothing much, judge,” he answered. “I was standin; on the corner waiting. “Waiting for what?” “A lad: Before the \y sir; I was waiting for my girl.” fhat’s not against the law,” the judge said. “You are dismissed.” Policeman Mohl had another case, as he thought, and he laughed as if he had a good joke as he told Judge Kim- ball of the brisoner’s alleged suspicious character. “What was he doing?” “Sitting in a dark hole {n the alley,” the policeman answered, ‘‘and he had a bundle of clothing near him.” “But what was he doing?” “Sitting down.” Hyram Schmidt was the name on the in- formation charging the colored boy with being a suspicious person. “J had a shirt with me that I had just got at the laundry,” said’the boy. “I had been workipg all day and stopped in the alley to rest.” He was released. Objects to Water. “He's afeared of water, and I guess he ain’t washed for three years,” said Julius Watson, a seventy-five-year-old colored man, who was talking about his son George. “He ain't very bright,” added the old man from Moonlight alley. George, who is about thirty years old, is probably the blackest man in the District. His hair, which is fully six inches long, is matted on his head, and has probably not been combed for as many years as water has not touched his face. The prisoner had a policeman’s whistle, and he said he expected to become a mem- ber of the police force in the near future. “J think he had better be sent where he will have to take a bath,” said the judge. “He may have six months in default of bond, and the doctors will examine him as to his mental condition.” Eva Hawkins and Louisa Reed, colored women, were complained against as el- leged vagrants. They were arrested cause they had been frequenting a hous in Bassett’s alley. Eva's mother gave evidence against her and the judge held her for fifteen days. Louisa was discharged. : “I found 40 cents and the bones on the ground,” said Policeman Anderson, “and Curtis Williamson was the only one I recognized.” “Was he in the game of crap “He was there.” “Ten dollars.

The base ball team from the University of Pennsylvania ceme down to Washing- ton yesterday to cross bats with a party of young men from Georgetown. When they went back to the city of brotherly love they were possessed +of; that tired feeling which comes from running up against a sore disappointment. “The University of | Pennsylvania has ea}ped for itself a fine | record this year, but. that was with other | teams than the Geordeétown boys. They failed to hit’hig Mike Mahoney. That was the whole rouble in a nutshell On the other hand,-the wearers of the blue and gray pounded put\the bagatelie of sixteen hits, which resulted in half as many runs. On theit Side the Quakers could make but three hits, and only one of those was a clean and,sqitare base hit. The visitors had a little theubest of it in the | matter of errors, but.good stick work can | cover a” multitude of’ slip-ups in the field. Georgetown made fou Tins in the first in- ning, and from then of, the result of the game was never in doubt. The score in de- tail was as follows: « Superior Vv.

Players From the Temple of Official Secrecy Win a Game. The champion District Commissioners played the Washington Light Infantry yes- terday, winning on account of the latter team’s inability to hit Fuller at opportune times. He struck out twelve men, keeping the seven hits so well scattered that in only one inning was more than one hit made off his delivery. The District building boys were also out with their best bats, getting hits when they most needed them. Jones and Dickinson proved to be a pair hard to beat when stealing was in order, and Dickinson's good throws, together with Jones’ ‘quick work, saved a number of stolen bases. The game was very prettily played, although a number of errors were made. Rouse made a catch in right field after he had slipped and fallen on the ground, and McIntosh saved a hit by run- ning from short to left and getting a ball that seemed good for at least a single. Dickinson accepted fifteen chances out of sixteen, and Barr and Fuller led at the bat. Gilroy’s home run was one of the features of the game. Umpire Carroll was taken sick, after he had decided that a batter could take his base on a balk, and Catlin took his place. His umpiring gave general satisfaction. The score: W. L. 1.

The game which was played May 11 be- tween the teams frotn the Post Office De- partment and the Government Printing Office, and which was won by the former club, has been declared forfeited to the Government Printing Office. The reason for this is that the game was played under protest, and the board of the league has de- cided that the protest was well founded, The point was that the P. O. D.’s played men who were ineligible, and as the charge was sustained and proven to the satisfac- tion of every one, the game was de2lared forfeited to the printers. Bake Ball Notes. Umpire Emslie and Manager Schmelz again exchanged a few pleasantries on a question of alleged interference at second base, and the umpire, as usual, seemed to get the best of the argument.-—Pittsburg Dispatch. Kelley of Baltimore made five hits off Inks and Luby, one being a home run and two being two-baggers. It remained for poor, despised Washing- ton to knock Pittsburg out of the lead.— Philadelphia Times. The Philadelphia Ledger calls on the league to take notice of Freedman’s con- duct in yelling to Davis “Go ahead, George! Let ’em fine you all they want to.” The Philadelphias on Monday made thir- teen errors, which is the record for the season. The previous record was ten, made by the Washinstons on May 3: The Clevelands suffered another accident yesterday, and Childs is the victim. In the first game Daly interfered with the catch of a fast throw from Greminger, and the ball struck Childs in the groin. He played out the game, but subseauent cxamination showed that the injury was not to be tritied with, and in the second game Mc- Garr, who has not fully recovered, took his Place at second. The Pittsburg players are indignant at Crooks of the Senators, because in putting the ball on Cross yesterday he struck him in the nose and brought the blood. On Monday, Cross, it is said, gave Crooks a punch, and the latter evidently was seeking revenge. R With three men on bases in the first in- ning Monday, Joyce made a wonderful catch of Bierbauer’s high liner. It would have been good for three runs had it got- ten away. “His Shagglefeet” went up about two feet and pulled it down, aimost doubling Donovan,who was on third.—Pitts- burg Exchange.

Considerable interest is felt here in the alleged husband poisoning case at Hughes- ville, Charles county, Md., because of the fact that Mrs. Belle Farrell, who is ac- cused of the murder of her husband, is well known and has relatives and friends in this city. Dr. Edward M. Schaeffer of this city, who made the chemical analysis of the dead man’s stomach and found strych- niné poisoning, is in Port Tobacco now. He is there to appear before the grand jury and tell that body the result of his an- alysis. The coroner’s jury held Mrs. Far- rell responsible, and an effort to effect her capture was made, but without success. It was known that she came here when she was first suspected, and an effort was made to have her movements watched, but the day the coroner's jury decided the case she was not to be found. Sheriff Albrittain of Charles county has been here several times searching for the missing woman, but has never been able Affair in to find her. 3AN FRANCISCO, CAL. Ex-Congressman Sidney E.
