Judge Hanford nLolds the same rule appiies 10 the children. 1f the Chinese Guvernment cannot give the certificate to the faither because it does not know ar thing about him 1r cannot give a cert cate to his children for the same reason.’’ W. H. White, a Bryan National Com- mitteeman {rom ibis State, who has for yea:s figured in all the big Chinese cases tried iu this section of the country, said to-nizht that Judge Haniord's decision was undouvtedly thelaw. Hethinks that Congress never intended that ha wive and ciildren should be kept out of the coun Government cfliciais, he says, have been laboring under a delusion all t! gress Hix contention is that Con- enacting these sections requiring the certificate from the home Government m that tained by Chinese who zre making their first trip to the United States, and who are legally entitled to enter.

Consequently there is oniy one tuning for the Govern- ment to do, and thatis to have the United States Supreme Court say il Judge Han- ford’s ho!ding 1s lezal. If itis, a new law will bave to be enacted.

Hanford’s Decision Throws Open th: Gates to All Chinese Want= ing to Coma. TACOMA, WasH., Oct. 2 inzg men of Tacoma are much concerned over Judze Hanford’s decision, to the effect that the wives and children of Chinese merchants may enter this coun- try freely. They see in this decision, if it be sustained, a locphole whereby a horde of Celestials may pour into this country 10 the great deiriment of the white labor interests of the Pacific Coast. L. Heriff, secretary of Tacoma Typo- grapuical Union No. 170, said to-night, speaking ot the decisi “‘The decision may be good law, ane, on the face of it, 1t may seem to be justice to the women and cbi.dren, but 1 4o not be- lieve it from a practical ndpoint. The children nitted under it will rapidly grow up and in a few vears w2 shall have a horde of Chinese :0 glut the labor mar- ket and throw white men our of empioy- ment. The effzct of this decision is con- trary to the spirit of the Chinese exclusion act. In my opinion the people of this coast shouid trge upon Congress the The labor- st necessity ol passing a new law as soon as H Congress meets in December. Tuere are now plenty of loopholes which permit Chinese to enter this country, as evidenced Ly the fact that they are coming iu right along. “If Judge Hanford’s decision is sustained and Congress fails to passan amendment China wili ship her sons and daughters over here so fast as to ruin the chances of thousands of white men for se- curing employment. During forty-nine years' residence in Oregon and Washing- ton I have seen numerous illustrations of the evils of Chineselabor. The admission of Chinese by the wholesale would ve par- ticularly injurious just now on account of the ravid development of placer mining | interests of the Nortawest, and the fact that s.me owners will employ the Cheapest jubor they can get. These men wouid hire Chinese if they could, and hundreds of white miners wouald be thrown out of work. In a word, the entry of Cuinese in large numubers is decidediy ovposed to the spirit of our institutions, and should not be permitted.” 1/Judge James Wickersham, a member of the famous commitiee of fifieen which drove ail the Chinese outof Pierce County in 1885, haa this to say: “While Judge Hanford’s decision seems to be the law it leaves a wide loophole for the entry of a very poor class of Chinese women and youth who might come in under the zuise of wives and children of merchants. I believe this element should be excluded and thatif Judge Hanford’s decision is sustained Cougress should pass an act covering this point.” John Manning, a laundry employe, said to-night: *Our employment will be gone very soon if the Chinese are aliowed to enter in droves under this decision. The steamer lines 10 Seattle, Tacowa and Van- couver will soon bring in enoogh Chinese 1o overrun the entire Northwest, if al- lowed. I believe they wonld coma in such numbers that Tacoma could no longer keep them out. Once here they would soon control the laundry and many other brancles of business.” CHINESE RESTRICTION BECOMES A FARCE. That’s the Opinion of Collector Jackson and of the Local Labor Leaders. The dispatch published in yesterday’s CALL, stating that Judge Hanford of the United Btates District Court, sitting at Seattle, had rendered a decision bolding that the order promul- gated by the Treasury Department re- quiring the sons, daughters and wives of Chinese merchants in tais country seek- ing admission to the United States to be provided with certificates from the Chi- nese Government certiiying that ihey were such persons as they represented and entitled to come in under the existing treaty wasillegal caused much comment among Federal officials and 1n labor cir- cles. The labor unions have always been op- vused to permitting Chine:e immigration under any circumstances and refer to Judge Hanford’s decision as proof of the fuuility of all iegislation of a restrictive character. It the - ecision is sustained on appeal, it is the opinion of Federat officials that They say it is in Line with 3 | ance by the San Fran: | the certificate should be ob- | vs that if the | | 1 { meetings call Upon its representatives in | arge the enaciment of & new | right or wron jad no right to admit | there will be an influx of Cainese such as The United S ates Cerumissioner | Las not be:n possible for years. anpealed | t way the | Jacke vin: are opinions by Collector n and several of the local labor leader . Collcctor of Port Jackson: ‘“Referring to the decision of Judge Hanford, I would say that the ruling of the department in the premises is up to this time based upon the decision of Justice Field in tue ca-e of Wan Shing, where:n he decided that In all cases exc:pt laborers desiring to enter this country must produce certificates from the authorities of the Chine:e Government or such other foreign Government as ihey may be sub- jects of before they can enter, Thisisthe law of the statute of 1584, and tue regula- t.ons prescribng the kind of certificate have been framed on the basis of t at statute and Justice Field’s decision there- up: Now comes in the treaty of 1894, and that treatvy rrovides simply that ‘other than laborers’ may produce certificates from their Government or the G wvern- ment wnere they last resided. The de <ion of Judge Hanford seems to vroceed upon the bazsis that that word may is simply permissive and not directory, and that they may demand admission into this country and prove their right thereto by evidence al:unde. “Of course the effect ot this, if that ren- dering of the law be sustained, will be the opening wide of the doors for overland Chinese 1mmigration. is, it will enable applicants fi tious proofs and wouid require more knowledge on the part of Government officials to controvert same than is likely to be at command. While the Government regulations are that the certificate shall surely b» n the form provided for them by :he law of 1834, courts will be very apt to decide that these provisions are no longzer op ‘rative or have been superseded by the treaty Couart Comr ner Heacock: “Judge Hanford, in my opinion, is a very able judge, and I don’t beiieve that he is re- | ported correctly; that is to say, I do not believe that that is his decision unquali- fi-dly. Ihave not seen the decision, but Iam sure that the newspapers have not reported him correctly.’ Andrew Furuseth, secretary Sailors’ Union of the Pacitic: *‘If this dispatch is correct it will unquestionably have the eifect of giving the Chinese the opportun- ity of coming to this country that they otherwises would not have. Ofcoursethisis a question of law, and 1f this is the correct interpreiation of the law it ‘s evident that the Chinese exclusion act is in need of amendmwent. There can be but one way to determine whether Judge Hanford is and that is to appeal from his decision. If it is only necessary to state that a person is the wife or son of another the Chinese will siate that very quickly. Of course it is presumed that nearly every one is opposed to Chinese immigr: tion, and everrbody knows what influence of Chinese imm coast bas been. I bas been any change don’t think there in the sentiment jtoward the Chinese, and as faras Iam “"H.

This i n all laws which are simply restrictive eives the authorities a chanuce to wink at violations of the law and admit C ines into this country practically without any n at all. e only remedy of which I can think is absolute prohibition instead of restriction. We should take a lesson from the Chinese themselvesand build a wall around this country as strong as it i can be made. “This dispatch in THE CALL shows that Chinese restriction is a :arce. Chinamen are coming in over the Cancdian border and elsewhere as easily as ever they did. Tne only difference is that the Geary act has involved our Government in great ex- pense without any practical benefit, WOMAN THE CAUSE OF BORRIOS DEATH Modesto Regalado’s Smiles Have Cost the Lives of Several Men. She Is Bellevad to Have Scme Con- | nection With Fresno’s Murder Mystery. Special Dispatch to THE CALL FRESNO, Oct. 22—The deep mystery surrounding the murder of Jusn Borrios, the Mexican who was found dead in the street near the C-street sch ooihouse yes- terday morning, is attracting much in- terest. The case has many peculiar fea- tures., The Sheriff's and District Attorney’s offices are actively engaged on several theories, but they refuse to give out any- thing concerning their investigations. They have found no conciu-ive evidenace. Jaan Borrios was about 45 years old and months ago. He was engaged in shear- ing sheep on the Whites Bridge road, a thort distance west of town. For five years he lived with Modesto Regalado, who deserted him four months ago and came to Fresno. The woman bestowed her affections upon a younger man, and has lived with Ike Farris since comingto Fresno. naturally not on the pest of terms. Borrios called freq uently on the woman. On the night he was murdered Borrios visited nher and asked her to go to Han- ford with him, but she refused. Modesto Regalado, it is claimed, has caused t e death of several men and th imprisonment of one. She is about years old, and appears dull and ignorant. A Mexican barber named John Diaz an about eight years ago because he was jealous of the latter’s attentions to her. She was living in Kresno at the time and the two were rivals for her favors. Diaz stabbed his rival with a dirk, and was sent 10 the psnitentiary on being con- victea of mans aughter. Five or «ix years ago a Mexican called “Noseless Frank' and Borrios were rivals for the smiles of the woman, and one morning Borrios was found nearly dead with a wound from a knile. “Noseless Frank” was arrested and placed in the Tulare County Jail. He committed snicide. Now comes Borrios’ death on the evening that he asked her to go to Hanford with him. Farris is exhibi'ing nervousness because of the suspicion resting upon him. He stoutly maintains that he is innocent, and says that on W dnesday night he was nine miles in the country.

Whistle Bird, Yule, Masoero and St. Calatine Win Purses. Anaconda Eas'ly Tak-s the Pace From Bernardo and Joe Wheelzar. Special Dispatch to T HE CALL. LOS ANGELES, Oct. 22.—The free gate for the iair sex proved a magnetic attrac- tion, as Ladies’ day drew fully 5000 peo- ple to Agricultural Park this afternoon. The cord was made up a'most entirely of running races, the 2:17 pace, tagen 29, and the track as smooth and polished asa billiard ball, which accounted for the fasttime hung out. The talent started off on the wrong foot, and the bookmakers had a merry e of ft througnout the bettine exchanging pasteboards for coin. Of the four favor- ites sent to face the barrier all were top- pled over. and St. Calatine all got over the~ e at remunerative prices. The Van Nuys Ho- tel hand.cap atsix furlongs, for two-year- olds, valued 2t §1000, was the most ex- pensive feature of the card. Of the original large list of entries but six youngsters sported the eolors. Van Ness’ entry, Los Prietos, with 108 pounds up, was a consistent 2 to 1 favorite in the bettine, with El Salado, the Baldwin filly, in with a “catch” of 9) pounds on ber St. Cala- tine, allotied top weight, opened at 5 to 2, wandered back to fours and was then played down to her opening quotation again.

Decision and Emma D, closing equal 2 to 1 choices, failed to connect and a bundle of coin was burned up. These two, accompanied by old Gold Buz, raced awav in the lead and were leg-wearv when the band for home w reached. Santa Pauia then nssumed the lead, but, injudi- v ridden by Ruiz, was beaten out by Yule, which came from bebind and woa cleverly, with Santa Paula leading Emma Dout for the place, The winner wasa 4 | to 1 chance around post time. Tne m:ile bandicap, irom a time stand- ntas well as smacking of a genuine horse race, was the swagger cffair of the menu, B8ix accepted the handicappers ailotments. Marquise, with top weight, opened an even-money chance, but after the betting had progressed some time it looked as though she had under-one the embalming process, for 3 to 1 was hung out by the lobster fisherman. The judges took cognizance of the fact and replaced Gus Wilson with Hennessv. The mare then closed at8 to 5. Lady Hurst, which opened at 8 and 5, was pounded down to 6105, but after the changs went back a point or two. The copper-on and copper- off folks were doomed 10 disappointment. Snider hustled Masoero nway and e had the others tootine for a relay station be ore the stretch was reached, finally winning cleveriy, a half length in | advance ol E'mer F, with the ‘‘clocks’ showing 1:40){. The favorite, Marquise, was lapped on Eimer F. Six to 1 was ob. tainable against the winner around post time, The final race of the day was the 2:17 pace, with bu: turee starters—Bernardo, Ansconda and Joe Wheeler. Anaconda was a2 and won in straight beats; best time 2:10. After finishing the second heat Bernardo fell down from exhaustion just after pa ing the wire, but started again in the final heat, taking third money.

REDWOOD CITY, O .—The flower carnival for the benefit of the Free Kin- dergarten is one of the most successful ever held here. The displays at the large pavilion are more numerous and are much finer than any hitherio exhibited. Many peopls have entered plants and flowers, not for the purpose of winning any of the numerous prizes, but simply | with the object of aiding a worthy under- taking. By far the larcer number of the displays come from Menlo Park, many of them being taken from the hothouses of wealthy residents of that place, while otheérs are exhibited by persons who make the raising of them a profession. The larze hail is tastefully and artisti- cally arranged. Evergreens and ferns are 50 interwoven that the walls and ceiling are hardly visibie. In the extreme south- eastern corner the ladies haye placed the icecream looth.

On the same side of the hall and a short distance north of tue ice-cream booth is the lemonade stand. ance ota fairy bower, and is coverel with an abundauce of grape vines, tocether with many large ferns an i palm feaves. Still further to the nortn the ladies have fitted up a veritable gypsies’ quartere, where fortunes are told to those who de- sire to know their future desiiny. The fortune-teller is seated upon a rug within her tent, wile rugsure scattered here and there for the accommodaiion of tLose who se-k her services, In tbe extreme nor heast corner has been arranged a ladies' dressing-room. This is made to represent u quiet nook in the redwoods—redwood trees peing set up- | right so as to entirely inclese the corner. The northwest corner has been fitted up hat and cloak repository. Here | youne ladies relieve the visitors of their | superfluous wraps and a small fee at the | same time. | ‘The flower shown in the zreatest abund- ance is the chrysanthemum, and weil may it be said 1hat never belore at any place or time were so many beautiful varieties displayed.

Captaln Jaeger and the First Mato Among Those Who Perished From Exposure. Spectal Dispatch io THE CALL LONDON, Oct. 22.—Second mate Olsen of the Norwegian bark Seladon, Captamn Jaecer, from Newcasile, N. 8. W., on July 13, 1896, for Honolulu, which was wrecked 1n the South seas in August 1896, has ar- rived in London with a dozen of the sur- vivors, and tells a terrible story oi their experience. The Seladon struck the reefs off Starbuck Island on August 7. The crew was ovliged t o take to the boats and the vessel filled 0 rapidly that there no time to save clothing, while they barely got a few pro- visions, the ship’s compass and a chart. They forgot the sextant. Eight men manned each of the two boats and made for Malden [sland, as there was no refuge at Starbuck Island. Failing to tind Mal- «en Island they tried to find Caristmas Island. Afier eleven days the first maie’s boat was cap-iz d and the mate drowned. The companions entered the other boats, which were already disabled. The heat of the sun peeled their faces and bodies, and their lips were blackened and swelled from want of food and water. The only food they had in addition to the small quantity of provisions which tkey carried from the vessel was the very small fly ng fish. Finally the captain and the carpenter became ill. Stiil there was no glimpse of Christmas Istand. Then they tried a course they thought perhaps would bring them to Samoa or the Fiji lslands. Finally Cai- tain Jaeger died. Aiter twenty-thres days, when food and water were ex- hausted, tliey caught a iitile rain. The party driited without food for six days, and finally on Septemuer 6 they were cast on a coral island and their boat was smashed by a big wave. The island upon which they were thrown proved to be Sofia Island, inbabited by ten people, and belonging to an American subject living in Bamoa. They lived there for ten months on tur- | tles, birds and bananas. The carpenter died soon after they landed. A few steamers p to attract their attention, but failed. Fi- nally they put off in a smali boat and hailed a steamer, which took them to Suva and from there they traveled to Sydney. CUARDING AGAIEST THE FEVER PLAGUE State Health Board Favors the Placing of Inspactors on Trains. Quarantine Station at Cabazola Reported to Bz In Excellent Condiltion. Special Dispatch t0 THE CALL. SACRAMENTO, Oct. 22—The State Board of Health met here to-night, Drs. Ruggles, Mathews, Hatch, Henderson arnd Crowley present. D~ Ruggies re- ported that the quarantine station at Cabazola was in excellent condition and ready to be, turned to prac- tical use at a moment’s notice if it be- came necessary to quarantine against yel- low fever. He gave it as his opinion that inspectors on trains between New Orleans and California were unnecessary, as fever germs might be carried through without appearing on the trip, and because there was no fever in Texas. Tbe board con- curred in the opinion. 1t was drcided to communicate with the superintendents of each of the insane asylums, requesting that they ecareiully segregate and report the number of con- | sumptives at the institutions, and that subsequently the State Board would assist in diagnosing the cases, with a view to the ercction of isolation wards for the care of tuberculosis patients. Dr. Henaerson presented a programme for the conference of county boards of health wiih the State board, to be held in San Francisco at Golden Gate Hall, com- mencing October 25, which was adopted. | It is as follow Opening address, Dr. C.
