NEW YORK, Oct. 25.—Experts in | foreign exchange said to-day that Thursday’'s shipment of gold to Paris | is made profitable only by reason of the fact that the Bank of France, in | order to attract gold to that country, | is offering American shippers interest on the gold during transit. The| Reichsmarck Bank of Berlin is said to | be offering similar inducements. This is the first time in years that such in- ducements have been offered. e Monument to Martyred Priest.

Mrs. H. Wallace reported to the po- lice on October 13 that she had been robbed of jewels valued at $5000. The police industriously kept the matter quiet until yesterday, when, having for two weeks failed to get even a clew to the thief, they condescended to make it public. Mrs. Wallace, who recently arrived from England, had rooms in the EI Cerrito_apartment-house, at Washing- ton and Larkin streets. On October 13 she was packing up her effects prepar- atory to moving to the Altamont, at Washington and Mason streets. She placed her jewels in a small linen bag, | which she deposited in her chatelaine. She left the room for fifteen minutes, leaving the purse on a chair. When she returned bag and jewels were gone. No one was in sight but Mrs. Wal- lace's servant, an old woman named “Bridget.”” Mrs. Wallace says that “Bridget” is honest, 50 the police elim- inated “Bridget” from possible suspi- cion. A thief could have gained en- trance to Mrs. Wallace's apartments through a kitchen door which connect- «d with her rooms, or through the front door, which was wide open.

Furthermore, it is entirely untrue that thers is any “Standard Oil party’ banded together for speculation in stocks, as is so generaily charged. The name of tho Standard Ofl Com- pany is frequently used by designing persons in the manipulation of the stock market, but its use is unwarranted. The Standard Oil Company departs from fts usual custom in making this denial for the reason that the statements being made at this time by newspapers, magazines and sensa- tional public speakers appear td be unusually mendacious and may, to some extent, mislead the public. —_—— T Inspects Sanitary Reduction Worku.; City Engineer Woodward yesterday | paid a visit of inspection to the San-| itary Reduction Works, which is in- stalling a sprinkling system to pre~ vent the noxious odors emanating | from the smoke.

Haddock said that he had persis- ! tently complained to the management of the Lackawanna Company and had been met by the proposition that he turn his properties over to the rail- road. This he had declined to do. In the end there was a compromise, by which he received $150,000 from the Lackawanna Company in settlement of his claim for $800,000. Haddock also said that the Lackawanna Company would not supply a sufficlent number of cars to handle the output of his mines during the anthracite coal strike. ‘When Haddock had completed his testimony, counsel announced that the complainant would rest his case. —_———— MUST ADMIT NEGROES TO THE WHITE SCHOOLS Kansag Supreme Court Issues Order in This loss meant the dif- | WILL NOT LET THE BARS DOWN Commissioner Kline Holds That Alleged Chinese Mer- . chant Must Be Deported BELLINGHAM, Wash.,, Oct. 25.— Lee You, the alleged Chinese mer- chant of Portland, Or., has been or- dered deported by United States Com- missioner Kline. Two weeks ago the man was dis- missed by Commissioner Williams on the strength of his own testimony and papers which had once before been accepted. Immigration officers im- mediately rearrested 'him and secured a hearing before Commissioner Kline, { who sustains their contention that the bars for Chinese immigration would be practically let down if the testi- mony of the accuae% alone had to be accepted as sufficient. It is expected that the case will be appealed to the United States District Court by the Portland attorney for the Chinaman, who is indignant at the ruling.
