NEW YORK LETTER
New York, Aug. 26. The clan sys
tem which has reached us high a
stage of development In China us It
ever had In Scotlund, promises to
cause considerable trouble to the
authorities In this city. San Fran
cisco, which has probably the largest
C'binesf population of any city in the
United States, has had its share of
troubles in the past and even now
there are frequent outbreaks of hosti
lities between the clans. Wherever
Chinese are found in considerable
numbers, there is sooner or later
trouble to be expected.
The outbreak In this city the other
day. which cost Several lives, came as
a perfect surprise to the police de
partment, although It was known for
some time that there was 111 feeling
between Hip Sing and On Leong
Clans. The authorities are almost
helpless in the mutter, as It is prac
tically impossible to obtain evidence
against any clansman. Unless a man
Is caught red-handed by the police,
he disappears and all the Ingenuity
of the detective department will ever
find a trace of him or any witness
willing to betray the fugitive. Every
Chinaman knows that It would cost
his life to give the least evidence or
clue to the police.
Deaf Mules' Grievance.
The deafmutes who recently held
their state convention In Eimira,
have a grievance against the city
authorities. Under the laws the au
thorities require that every deaf
mute who desires to obtain free edu
cation in the public schools must sub
mit u. declaration that he Is Indigent
and unable to pay for his education.
This, the deaf mutes decided, was
humiliating nnd they passed resolu
tions condemning the practice and
demanding a change of the method.
Railroad Tunnel Under North River.
The south ibe of the New York
and Jersey Rallraod company under
the North River is drawing rapidly
to the New York shore. In a few
weeks the workmen in the tube are
expected to connect it with the Man
hattan section. When this connection
Is made the building of the old Mor
ton street tunnel which was begun
thirty years ago, will be practically
completed.
A few minutes before noon on
March 11 of last year the shield from
the Jersey end of the North tube of
the tunnel touched that from the
New York end, and the work of
building the first tunnel under the
North River was completed. The New
York and Jersey Railroad company
became the owner of the old Morton
street tunnel several years ago. More
than two thousand feet of It, had been
constructed by the former owners. It
took one year and ten months to
complete the North tube and the
completion of the South tube will
take nearly as long.
The completion of this tunnel
brings the project of an underground
connection of the railroad terminals
In New Jersey with Manhattan a big
step nearer to Its realization.
Died In Poverty.
"Sic Transit Olorla Mundi." Glu.
srppe Nlcolao at one time the teach'
er of Adelina Pntll and other great
singers, orchestra conductor and
friend of crowned heads, died the
other day In this city in abject pov
erty. This is not the first time that
a great singer, musician or actor, af
ter a life of artistic and financial suc
cess died poor and thanks to the Im
providence of many of these people,
there will undoubtedly be many other
cases of this kind.
This is not the place to philoso
phize over the recklessness of theat
rical people and of artisls. In con
nection with this case, however, there
is a feature, which gives to It addi
tional interest. Nlcolao lived In the
Italian district of the East side and
notwithstanding his poverty and his
seclusion he hail many ndmirers and
friends in that district. After his
death scores of the children who had
breathlessly listened to the masterly
playing of the old man, crowded to
his rooms and covered the plain cof
fin with flowers. It was a touching
tribute to the genius of the old man.
Tralliload of Insane People.
The most strangely laden train that
ever was sent over any railroad was
left here the other day for Rochester
and Wlllard. The load consisted of
about six hundred Insane persons
from the Long Island State Hospital
In Brooklyn, who were accompanied
by nurses, keepers and physicians.
The Brooklyn hospHul was so over
crowded that It became necessary to
ship part of the patients to the hos
pitals in Rochester and Wlllard.
Most of them were sent to Rochester,
where the State, had Just completed
building large enough to accommo
date 760 pntlents.
fluking Under Revolting; Condition.
An official examination of the
small bakeries lu the squalid sections
of the East side has revealed many
revolting facts. It is shown that
their evil condition Is not so much- the
fault of the bakers themselves, but to
the criminal Indifference of the own-
ers of the buildings in which the bak
eries are situated. Many of them are
twelve feet below the level of the
street and can be reached only by
means of narrow and steep stairways.
Light and air are ullke shut out.
The terrible conditions existing In
these bakeries were the principal
cause of the recent strike. The auth
orities have taken steps to bring
about an Improvement In the existing
conditions.

Since bis arrival in Tonopuh some
three months saps the Tonopali Dally
Sun. since local mining men and
brokers have wondered what was the
mission of Leison Balllet, who was
tried for using malls to defraud and
who was placed under the ban of the
postal department In connection with
the White Swan mine of Baker City,
Ore. Balliet has been here several
weeks. He claims he Is owner or
part owner of a number of news
papers and that he was in dally re
ceipt of many letters of inquiry about
the mines of Tnnopnh anil elsewhere
In southern Nevada.
Though he claims to have money,
he Is not known to have made any
mining Investment-! or to have made
an elaborate examination of mines,
nnd withal he has been since his ar
rival In Tonopuh very much a man of
mystery.
Balliet has shown his hand at last.
His game Is to float a number of "in
vestors" clubs throughout the east
and have the members advance $10
tier month each toward the purchase
of stock with a sure "cinch" on be
coming directors of the companies In
which they invest.
He d us not as-k them to seai htm
the money, declares he has no stock
for sale, is not Interested in any
company selling stock nor is he em
ployed by uny one who lias stock for
sale. He further promises to glvo
his services as a mining engineer of
eminence absolutely free of charges
of uny kind.
The whole gist of Bnlliet's appeal
to Investors Is a suggestion by infer
ence that the lambs part with their
money at the rate per month and in
the manner he states, nnd in proper
ties in which be alone shall recom
mend. Balliet seems to have extraordinary
prestige with a certain Chicago
financial publication known as
Farm Loans and City Bonds. The
editor of the said paper endorses the
get-rlch-qulck-project and urges In
vestors to hurry their letters lo Bal
liet. The Chicago editor declares In
Anglo-Saxon that Bnlliet's services
as mining engineer are In the great
est demand ut 3200 per day, yet of
fers no explanation to reconcile his
willingness lo work .for the readers
of Farm Loans and City Bonds ab
solutely free and board himself.
