I cer- tainly hope it will be, for it will mean the salvation of the millkmen and at the same tinre be of incalculable benefit to Mr. Dockery.” G. L. Perham of the Boston ranch said he would be glad to see the milkmen again on a standard price and live up to it. He did not think, in fact was positive, that an increase in wholesale prices would not ean a corresponding increase to con- sumers. George C. 8mart of the New York Dairy entertained the same views, adding that there were men driving wagons every day who, in spite of Mr. Dockery’s vigilance, were selling adulterated milk at much below the cost of producing the pure arti- cle. He thought the penalty should be ied, and was also strongly in favor of the plan advocated by Mr. Clifford. L rds, president of the Milk- men’s Association, did not see how the consumer could be called upon to pay any more than he was already paying, even presuming that the wholesaler was forced to give 75 cents a can for his milk. He nticipated no such figure as that, how- ver, but wonld be quite content if all the kmen would agree on 60 cents a can stick to it. A POLICEMAN REBUKED. Judge Conlan Champions the Cause of a Married Woman. Judge Conlan administered a rebuke to Policeman J. Tuite for arresting Mrs. May Harrison on Sixth street on Sunday night, characterizing it as an outrage. He dis- missed the charges against her and threat- ened to bring the officer’s conduct to the knowledge of the Police Commissioners.

BICYCLE ORDINANCE. Chief Crowley’s Ideas on the Subject Submitted to the Board of Supervisors. Chief of Police Crowley has been making a study of the bicycle question for several weeks past and yesterday he presented a pithy communication on the subject to the Board of Supervisors. He suggests an ordinance regulating the speed at which cyclists shall pass through nd restricting the same to four s per hou “Tne prop d ordinance,” s the h the t night a lighted lamp or g whistle which must be ile passing over a street cross: ing.

They own in the a.gregate about 5000 shares, and only ?uid 1815 cents for it, payment being made at the rate of 134 cents per month. None of them were bullied into buving the stock, and they knew when they became stockholders that it was a gamble just the same as any other stock transaction. guire, that the mine was worthless: Alto- gether we have spent about $7000 on the property and have taken out suflicient ore to net us §12,000 clear. There is a carload on the way from the mine now t 3 $1557 per ton. This is the first shipment we have made since it was reopened, and the prospects are improving. I have picked samples from the mine that will go over $7000. It is by no means a worthless prop- erty, and it is said that $35,000,000 has been taken from the Santa Rosalia by the peo- ple who worked it in the 70’s. I am in- clined to believe it, as the rock is very rich and there is a great deal of it. ‘“‘Another thing worth mentioning is the fact that all the gold taken out so far was found by drifting and we are not yet into the best ore body. We found an old tun- nel still in good condition which is about 350 feet long and ic saved us a good deal of expense. As far as the mine being a worthless property, the figures I give you, and which can be proven, settle that point, and further developments will add strength to my statements. “Regarding other charges against Mr. Daggett I know nothing of them and asa matter of fact care nothing.

FRE. RDINNCE VETOED | Mayor Sutro’s Reasons for Stamp- | ing It With His Disap- proval. The Mission-Street Outlet for Refuse Was Never Completed by the Contractors. As was anticipated by the members of the Board of Supervisors, Mayor Sutro | placed the stamp of his disapproval on the recently proposed fire ordinance at yester- day’s session of the City Fathers and sent in a veto message that throws the measure back on the hands of the board. The sub- stance of the message is as follows: To the Honorable the Board of Supervisors— GENTLEMEN: On October 28, 1895, your hon- | orable body passed an order defining the fire | limits of the City and_concerning the erection jand use of the buildings therein. Itisad- | mitted that there is a public need of the pro- | posed legislation, as our City is expanding in population and apparently entering upon an era of improvement. The proposed law is very long and difficult of mastering_in its detail For this reason the proposal of General Hart to point out some objections to and defects in the law was gladly accepted. He appeared for him- | self and others. Chief Sullivan and Mr. Spinetti of his depart- re present at my office when General nted his argument. His objections - briefly summarized. ion 7 provides for two characters dings, class A and class B. Neither of sses are absoiutely fireproof.

As a representative of the Mission | | Association for Sewer Improvement he gave the board to understand that some peculiar work had been done in the past | in_the Mission-street main sewer. | While pursuing the investigations for | which it was formed the association ran | across the fact that the Filteemn»strc(atl sewer was ‘doing a tremendous amount of | | work and seemed to be giving away under the strain. No cause for the matter could be assigned until one of the members sug- | gested examining the Mission-street sewer | | by meens of the manholes, to ascertain why it was not doing its work. Then the startling discovery was made that for a space of ten to fifteen feet in the block between Fourteenth and Fifteenth streets the sewer was never built. The fall | being toward the water front all the sewer- |age from the district beyond Fifteenti | street runs into the sewer on that thor- | oughfare, which is not adequate for the purpose. The main Mission-street sewer | was perfectly dry for some distance on the | Fourteenth-street side of the place where | the break occurred. 5 £ The board was asked to investigate the matter and remedy the defect as soon as | possible before the winter rains cause more | trouble on Fifteenth street. Referred to the Street Committee. ; Mayor Sutro filed a protest against the passage of the order establishing grades on Corbett and Caselli avenues and og Ash- bury streets on the ground that the order is full of errors regarding grades, which need to be rectified before decisive action is taken. ? J. J. Sullivan’s appeal from the action of the Auditor in refusing to sign his de- mand for services as bond clerk of the Board of Examiners was referred to the City and County Attorney for his opinion as to the power of the board to make the appointment and provide for the payment of the salary attached to the office. W. 8. Hinkle’s appointment as assistant to the District Attorney for three months, to aid in prosecuting criminal charges, was extended three months from Novem- ber 21, the salary being fixed at $250 per month. _Arthur M. Willette was appointed spe- cial connsel to assist in the collection of delinquent taxes. ——————— ‘When Wrinkles Seam the Brow, And the locks grow seant and silvery, infirmities of age come on apace.

NO CHINESE T0 VOTE The Question of Citizenship Raised in the Federal Courts. THE ACCIDENT OF BIRTH. An Opinion Is Sought on the Status of Asiatics Born Here, EFFECT TO BE FAR REACHING. Thousands of Chinese Have Been Preparing to Exercise the Fran- chise Next Year. The question whether a Chinese born in this country is a citizen or not has been raised in the United States District Court, and the effects of the decision ultimately reached will be far reaching. There are several thousand American- born Chinese in this country now, and in cities like San Francisco and New York the possible Chinese vote next year is caus- ing politicians to do some t}unkin;:. Chinese—only the American-born ones, of course—have already voted in the United States, and in this City there is an organization of them known as the Native Sons of the Golden State—not ‘“Golden West"”—that has several hundred members. Last Fourth of July this organization, which has a State charter, took a conspicu- ous part, after the Mongolian manner, in the holiday celebration, and calculations had already been made on the strength of its vote in the next election. r since the decision of United States Circuit Court Judges Field, Sawyer and Hoffman in the Look Ting Sing’ case 1t has been the custom of the Custom-house authorities to land American-born Chi- nese upon their return to this country as soon as the fact of their nativity has been established. Attorney George D. Collins, however, has recently raised the pointin the American Law Review that a Chinese born in this country is not a citizen, and, therefore, not entitied to a landing upon his return_to this country from a visit to the 1and of his parents. Mr. Collins con- tended that his parents could not possibly be naturalized under the statutesand judi- cial holdings of the United States, and that the mere accident of birth here would not entitle him to citizenship. 1f this po- sition be sustained by the Yederal courts it will par_all such Chinese from habeas- corpus privileges, take the entire question ever afterward out of the courts and leave the matter of landing wholly with the Collectors of Customs. The Department of Justice at Washing- ton accordingly suggested that a test case be made, and, acting under the Attorney- seneral’s instructions,” District Attorney Foote had one madein the matter of Wong Kim Ak, who, like the 500 or more young Chinese in this City, claims to be a ¢itizen because born here. Wong proceeded against Collector Wise and, a steamboat captain, setting up the fact that they were E | about to deport him contrary to the deci- sion of the United States Circuit Court alluded to. This case was argued before Judge Mor- row vesterday, the Chinese being repre- sented by Attorneys T. D. Riordan and Joseph Naptbaly, and Mr. Foote taking the position assumed by Attorney Collins. On Wong's side the effort is being made to apply the Fourteenth Amendment of the American Constitution, but Mr. Foote, quoting from the decision of the United States Supreme Court in the ‘‘Slaughter- house” cases, to be found iu the Sixteenth Wallace Federal Reports, reasoned that that tribunal had ex- plicitly shown = that the Fourteenth Amendment had been adopted primarily for the benefit of people of African descent who bad been born in the countrv and whose parents did not owe any allegiance whatever to any other power than the United Stutes, and that this amendment affected the colored people only and never was intended to include persons of Mon- golian parentage or ancestry. He based his arzument upon the general ostracism of Mongolians by the acts of Congress, and also the decisions of the Federal courts which declare, in effect, that a Chi- nese cannot be naturalized under any cir- cumstances. ‘It may be that Judge Morrow wili de- cide according to the Sawyer decision,” said Mr. Foote yesterday afternoon, *‘that a Chinese born in this'country has a right to land here, but if so the case will be ap- pealed to the United States Supreme Court, becanse 1 am so instructed by the Depart- ment of Justice. It isa very important | question and should be settled for all time. “‘American laws and institutions do not contemplate the posslbililf‘ of Chinese be- coming citizens here at all. Our court de- cisions and our statutes are all opposed to the very idea. And we also contend that under international law a Chinese born in this country of parents subject to the Em- peror of China is also subject to the same power, and, owing allegiance to a foreign Government,cannot possibly bea citizen of this country. “If, then, a Chinese cannot become a citizen by either birth or naturalization he cannot lay claim to any privileges of residents owing allegiance only to the United States. The mere condition of residence oould not Americanize his par- ents, and the mere accident of birth could not make a citizen of him. “The other side makes a great deal of the old Engli#h common law, namely, that any person born under British dominion is a subject of Great Britain, but I contend that in the United States it is not enough to be born here, and the word ‘jurisdiction’ in our constitution means political juri: diction. A Chinese not born in this coun- try_is certainly not within the political jurisdiction of the United States—not any more than the son born here of some Chi- nese Embassador. His birth is included within the political jurisdiction which established the allegiance of his father. *“To apply the common law principle that the territory whereon oneis born estab- lishes his citizenship is to go contrary to the express dicta of our Fedaral Constitu- tion, our Congressional legislation and the construction of the American judi- ciary.” Judge Morrow will give the matter care- ful consideration and will make a particu- lar study of the numerous questions in- volved so far as they are embraced by the test case at issue. The Chinese will await his opinion with eagerness, and tbe poli- ticians who have been counting on the Chinese vote are saying nothing just at vresent. AMIRAUX’ DIVORCE. His Tale of Woe to Jndge Seawell Secures for Him a Decree. Gellar Amiraux has secured a divorce from his wife, Josephine, on the ground of extreme cruelty. Hiscomplaint, filed some time ago, is a voluminous document, and the series of charges it sets forth are start- ling in their number. He tells how she ordered him out of bed one night, and he made up a bunk on the parlo§ sofa, and then when he was fairly comfortable she came downstairs and ordered him back to his own bed, and he picked up his blank ets and returned. He goes on further to tell how she fol- lowed him to Los Angeles, when he went down there on business, and when he locked the door and refused to answer her demands for admission, she went off a little way and pelted the house from 8 o’clock in the evening antil 2 o’clock in the morning with rocks and old boitl One of these missiles, he says, broke a window, and m that way she entered and went to bed in one of the rooms. She stayed until 11 o'clock in the day time, and then she had to ve put out by the police. She also slapped his face, and that of his brother, on divers occasions, and she horswhipped her husband in the streets of Los Angeles. She sued him for maintenance, t0o, and alleged all sorts of cruel things against him, and she threatened to xill him and to throw vitriol upon him and upon his mother. All this is set forth at great length in his complaint, and in view of it all he obtained a divorce. g Amiraux is a theatrical man, and his wife was an Oakland girl, a Miss Gordon, who also had theatrical aspirations. It Was a secret marriage. ——————————— A Correspondent Wanted.
