limit of the law expires, hence it is quite,
probable that DolDh will ojiII nr.- hia
Chinese bill in the senate immediately,
so ne naa Deen at work preparing certain
amendments that he intends to offer.
He will move to strike out all after the
enacting clause of Dolph's bill and in
sert, in lieu thereof, Geary 'b' measure
with certain chanees. Senator Sherman .
chairman of the foreign relations com
mittee Has given notice that he would
today ask the attention of the senate to
the restriction bill. It is necessary, he
said, that it should be passed within ten
days, as the present legislation on the
subject would, under certain construc
tion 01 it, expire some time in the month
of May. Felton'e amendment will pro
pose that money be appropriated by con
gress to pay for Chinese registration.
tie estimates that there ; are 200,000
Chinese within " our borders, and that
the fee for each certificate should be
50 cents, which would require, an appro
priation therefore of about ,$100,000. It
is sot believed that the senators' will an
tagonize Geary's bill as amended by
Felton solely on account of its carrvintr
a small Appropriation like this, and the
laws m every otber case do not require
the payment of the fee bv the nerson
registered. Geary's bill requires a fee
ot $6.00 to be paid by all Chinese now
within the United States for a certificate
of residence, -to be issued by the commis
sioner of internal revenue or bis deputy.
Celeatial Uproar.
Nbw Yobk, April 19. London dis
patches eay there has been an open col
lision between the European .ministers
and the Chinese foreign office, and it
may turn out that Chinese diplomacy
with Europe will have an interest for
the United States. The Russian min
ister has broken away . from the lead of
the German minister, and the French
minister has had orders from home to
support his - Russian colleague -at any
time he may choose. The difficulty
arises over the fact that the Chinese gov
ernment refuses to arrest Chan Han,
one of the authors of the outrages and
murders of the Christians last- year. It
seems quite clear that , they wish . to do
no more than go through-the- forms, in
order to silence diplomatic complaints
of virtual coni"plicity ' with . the party
which provoked and executed the mur
derers of foreigners.' Behind Chan Hau
and his accomplices are the people of
China. They do not care about being
converted, and they hate the foreigner
for the various concessions he has . ex
torted from them.; There is no present
question of applying military compul
sion to the dilatory officials at Fekin.
But what is important to us is the fact
thai Europe has a controversy with the
Celestials which must be settled, and as
we also have a controversy with. them.
both Europe and America "are ' more
likely "to carry their points together than
separately. " ' -
i J Weather Damaee la Eniose.
iomoij April 18.' Tie Revere weather
which set in here last week continues.
In many places the" ground is covered
with snow a foot deep; and regular bliz

places the situation ia . really - serious.
Snow and sleet have prostrated the tele
graph poles, and eut off. telegraphic com
muuication.' ' - So 'serious '-was the de
struction to the wires that the ordinary
force of linemen are unable 'to cope with
the difGcnltiesand soldiers were ordered
to their assistance.' ' Great damage was
done crops in the channel islands. - "A
Jieavy storm ia raging today in North
Wales and . Cheshire. Advices say the

Baltic. Dispatches from Paris and the
nortlTof France say . hail and 'sleet are
falling, and the weather is bitterly cold.

; 8as FiiA!ici8co, April 19. An earth
quake of unusual violence, occurred in
this state at 3 o'clock a. m.- -Vacaville
was so badly shaken up that there is not
a brick building left standing in the
city, nor scarcely a chimney on any of
the frame structures. Several lives were
lost, and it is impossible to estimate,
damages. Other . places were shaken
with frightful effect.
.Deeming tbe Demon.
Melbourne, April 18. The medical
board who . have . examined " murderer
Deeming as to his sanity, pronounce him
to be mentally sound and perfectly ' re
sponsible for all his actions. The villian
maintains his nonchalant air, and con
tinues to talk of what he will do when
he goes back to England. 'He said today
that without the help of a lawyer he
could convince any jury. if he tried, that
he was innocent. He eats heartily, say
ing that he does not intend to go into a
decline because the authorities hold him
in jail a few weeks. The chaplain ' was
admitted to him on Friday and Deeming
talked with him on religious subjects.
He remarked, however, that he did not
care much for religion, as the woman
who got him into trouble by her unfaith
fulness (Miss Mather) was alwavs read-
a prayer book. - " -"'. " '
A Convert's Confession.:
Peoria, 111., April 19. Albert Cox,-an
employe -of the Big . Four railway has
been arrested for the murder of his
wife's ' suitor, previous to their elope
ment and marriage in Indiana, ' two
years ago. The wife has been attending
a religious revival, at which she became
conscience stricken, and a few days since
confessed the crime. Both Cox and his
wife did the deed, to: pave the way to
their elopement and marriage. She and
her husband plotted the murder, and
secured $1,000 which her " suitor had
promised to give to her to raise a mort
gage on her father's place, in considera
tion of her consent to marry him. But
she liked Cox better, and when the vic
tim kept the appointment, according to
the plot, as he approached the . girl she
coughed, and at the' signal Cox rushed
from a shadowy nook and struck the
victim a cruel blow with a coupling-pin
on the head with fearful effect. There
was no scream and the fall of the body
made no sound. Both took the body
and whirled it into the river below. The
guilty couple did not stop to "watch the
plunge of the body ; they hurried back
to the city. ' Nobody saw them on -the
bridge, and their secret seemed safe.

Berlin, April W. A general expecta
tion ir.that a renewed declaration of in
dependence,' upon the part of Bulgaria,
will soon be made, with the' indorsement
of the porte..; In this event it is believed
Russia will submit td Turkey's, -action
without ma e -than ' a. format-' protest.
The czar- has recently - sustained fresh
reverses at-Constantinople, in a diplo
matic sense, and seems to be convinced
that he has For some reason - lost the
power he so long ' enjoyed of buldozing
the sultan. - The political gossips have
it that this state' of affairs '. furnishes a
reason for the czar's determination to
soon pay a visit to Berlin. It is reported
that he will endeavor to secure the sup
port of Emperor William in his designs
upon Bulgaria, but in common opinion
the effort will be futile. . :

Newark, N. J., April 19. An Aus
trian by the name of Loeschner. who
says he was attracted to Pouth Carolina"
last December, to work in the Ponnon
phosphate mined, tells a story of. wretch
edness among the nuaers there which
passes belief. He says the men are
treated worse than slaves, and am con
stantly guarded by armed men. and if a
miner lagged in his work he was taken
aside, his back bared and unmercifully
uogged with a heavy rone. The whiD-
ping was so" brutal that . many strong
men were made insensible. All the
hands, about sixty in number, slept to- '
gether in a. very old shanty, and armed
guaras patroiea outside the building to
prevent the- escape of those who wer
dissatisfied.. Loeschner. however, did
escape, despite, the guards. He stood -the
inhuman treatment as Ions as nnRsi-
ble, and at lenpth, in the middle of
March, planned to escupe with one of
tne other bands. Thev watched their
chance, and-on the night of March 18,
while the guards were quarreling over a
game of cards, the two men succeeded in
escaping' from the building and stole
away in the darkness. For two days
they - lived in- one of the- numerous
swamps of that locality with nothing to
eat, and hnally beat their way to Rock
am, where they separated. Through
the kindness of a brakenian Loeschner
reached Richmond, and from there stole
rides to this city on freight cars- The
company only paid him about ten dol-

. London, April 18. In reporting to .
the board of trade on a recent fatal ac
cident to the guard on a goods train of
the. Midland railroad, .Maj. Marinden '
condemns without measure the habitual
overworking of, employes on English
railways. - The dead guard, "he says,
worked for consecutive periods of
twenty, seventeen, twenty-three and -twenty-two
hours. The driver on the
same train with the dead guard "had
been . forty-seven consecutive hours and
forty minutes at work at - one time, and
forty-eight consecutive hours two days .
later. 'Only five hours were allowed in'
periods ots twenty-five and eighteen -
hours of work. After the week in which
he remained on. the long periods men- s.
tioned the same driver worked two pe'ri-
ods of sixty-one and seventy consecutive '
nours. . -
, Anxiety in Europe. . - -
New Yoek, April 19. The coming
May day 'demonstrations in France,
Italy and Germany, is the source' of
great anxiety, notably iu Paris', Koine ' -and
Berlin. It is expected that work- .
ingmen will not be. allowed to hold pro- "-'
cessions anywhere in Germany, but' the ,
anarchists will' attempt to parade in -spite
of any prohibition that may be is
sued, and the authorities are determined -there
shall be no rioting. The socialists,
of whom there are many in all the' Ital- -ian
cities, threaten to show their strength. -The
authorities, however are" fully alive ;
to the demands of the occasion, and the
least attempt to create disturbances will
be severely, repressed.. In France the
socialists are preparing to 'hold proces-'
sions every where1. It is expected 2,000,-
000 will be in line on iMay day. "While
disturbances are not looked .for, the
authorities ai"e prepared to '.meet them,
in case they occuc. The demonstrations -are
chiefly in favor of an eight hour day.
.. The Treasures of Dahomey. " ;
. London, I.April; 18. It -Is said the
French preparations for war in Dahomey
have as a real object the capture of
I Dahomey,' the capital '. of " Dahomey, "
where, it-is reported, successive kings
for two' centuries have been burying a
large amount of treasure in "pits 'under
the palace. ; This treasure, says the cor
respondent,' allowing for exaggerations,'
amount to $100,000,000, which the French
hope to capture.- - . -.. ..r.iv .
