HTF5TOKY OF THE TREATY AND ITS OBJECT.
What the California Representatives Say—Will China Retaliate?
WASHINGTON, September 1.—No oflieiiil information regarding the rejection of tlio (Jliinene treaty has been received ut tlio Btate department, and nothing beyond the press dispatch cabled last night. from London, as published this morning, in* known on the subject. I'Vieiids of the administration say the treaty contained arrangements with Ohina which the Hritish government wiw most. anxious to make, and British influence to the extent of the power of that government to Becure a rejection of the treaty by China has been apprehended by them. For this reaBon the amendments to the treaty after it had received the deliberate approval of the Chinese government through its minister here, although regarded as entirely unnecessary and useless, were not believed to be dangerous and mischievous and to imperil the great objects sought to be obtained upon our side in the long pending negotiations to nettle an important question. When President Cleveland came into power a very excited and unsatisfactory state of things existed on the Pacific coast regarding the Chinese question, and one of the earliest important tasks which Secretary Jiayard set for himself upon assuming the duties of his present ollice, was to secure the negotiations of a new treaty. Minister Cheng, a gentleman of great intelligence, then representing Ohina, was absent in South America, and on his return a few months later, the subject wus broached to him. He had, however, recently been stricken with paralysis, and his successor was already on his way from China, so the beginning of the negotiations was postponed until the arrival of the new representative. Secretary Bayard sought from the outset to impress upon the mind of the Chinese minister that the fact that different conditions of social and political life in the two countries made anything like mutuality or equivalence in the terms of the concessions to be made on the one hand and the other impossible, and to the end that these conditions might be fully appreciated to recommend that the Chinese minister travel through the country at his leisure, and observe the habits'and modes of living of our people for himself. The chief point of dif ference of courso was the fact, which was to be considered as the very starting point-, that the whole length and breadth of the lulled States was open to residence and occupation by any Chinaman who should secure an entrance to this country, while only a few restricted ports of China could be visited by an American, even by the American minister, under any circumstances. In the course of time, the minister, having fully informed himself, willingly entered upon negotiations, filled with the desire to secure redress for the unpunished murder of his countrymen in various parts of the western territories, and the loss and destruction of the property of others. The purpose which inspired the secretary was to secure the exclusion of the Chinese laborers, in compliance with th* emphatic nnd substantially unanimous demand of our l'acilic stales. Subsequent negotiations consumed months of careful deliberation. The treaty was at once transmitted to China for approval in March last, aud nothing was heard from that government, to indicate any lack of entire approval. Fifty-seven days after the senate received the treaty it was ratified, but with amendments which the friends of the administration regarded as superlluoiis. The secretary of state reopened negotiations, and succeeded after some correspondence in securing from the Chinese minister his assent to the senate amendments, the assent being in the form of an exchange of notes which embodied in substance an acknowledgement hat lie amendments did not substantially alter the text of the treaty as it had been originally signed. There seemed to be, however, in the mind of the minister, an impression that China has been trilled with, and when the amendments were sent out to China the proceeding was not understood by the high authorities of that government. About a month since an inquiry was received from the Chinese government by cable, asking if power still remained with the senate, to further amend the treaty, the Chinese authorities wishing to know if they were dealing with a finality. To this the secretary of the state replied at once that the treaty did not need to bo further amended". Nothing further has been heard on the subject but it is thought by rrieiuls of the administration, that in the natural course of events the st ingent measures introduced into congress designed to carry into elfect by anticipation the provisions of the treaty, have been brought to the attention of the Chinese government and it has been apprehended that these steps, respecting a treaty not yet formally agreed to, aud consequently not in force, have served to add further embarrassments and lead to further doubts on the part of the Chinese authorities as to our ultimate purpose. An interview was sought with Secretary ISayard this morning on the subject but the secretary declined to express himself for publication beyond stating that, no iuformatiou had been received 011 the subject by the department. "If it is true that China has rejected the treaty," the secretary added, "Why, we have the former treaty still in force, and the restrictive legislation on our statute books." It is believed by many in high position that the acts of which the Pacitic coast people now complain so loudly are due to the negligence or collusion of our own otlicials. and that the remedy lies largely with ourselves. Recently, for example, there caiue an application for the extradition for a man, who had stolen a certificate which coveted the re entry of a Chinaman, and who was seeking to secure the entry of other Chinamen under it. The certificate was in the custody and control of our own otlicials and were it not for either negligence or collusion, the theft or misuse would not have been possible.
California representatives in the house were all much interested in the news published this morning to the effect that the Chinese government has refused to ratify the new treaty with the I. luted States. They are disposed, however, upon advice from the state de-
partmetn to await confirmation of the original dispatch before taking steps to meet the emergency. Mr. Morrow said that the senate amendment to the treaty submitted by the president was vital, and without it the treaty would be ineffective. It was this amendment which had caused the rejection of the treaty by the Chinese government. Vet it was inserted to meet the decision of the Su preme court, and the amendment was in the very language of that part of the decisiou which pointed out the Btipulalation necessary to exclude Chinese from the United States—that no person should be permitted to enter the United States without the certificate provided for in the treaty. It had been the purpose of congress to prevent the "prior residents" from returning to the United States for otherwise all Chinamen might come in under a claim of prior residence, which it would be impossible to disprove. r. Morrow added that if the news of the rejection of the treaty should be confirmed, the California members would ask congress to pass a bill requiring the president to give six months' notice to the Chinese government that thereafter no Chinese, except diplomatic, consular, and other officers of the Chinese government, wili be^ permitted to enter the United States. That notice would amount to the revocation and abrogation of all asserted rights of the Chinese to enter this country.
Mr. Morrow did not appear to fear retaliation by China, saying that there were but (,151 Americans all told residents in that country. He believed that while the Chinese government regarded the amended treaty as unduly stringent, the most potent reason for the rejection of the treaty was that it had probably been caught in the revolving wheels of diplomatic relations between China and Great Britain. The Chinese government had protested strongly against the action of the British government in returning a shipload of Chinese from Australia. In Mr. Morrow's judgment the rejection of the treaty would be advantageous to California in the end, as it would result in such legislative action on the part of our government as would effectually protect it against Chinese invasion. Further legislation would necessarily cover the defects of the existing treaty and existing legislation.
Mr. Vandever said it appeared that the senate amendment had caused the rejection of the treaty which had been ratified before the amendment was attached. Undoubtedly British influence had brought about the result.
Senator Mitchell, of Oregon, said: "If it is true that the Chinese government has rejected the proposed treaty, I think it is a most fortunate thing for the people of this country. The treaty as sent to the senate by the president was in my judgment one that never should have received the sanction of our people, because it opened several new doors by which Chinese could enter, which do not exist in the present treaty of this country. Of course the amendments made by the senate improved the treaty very greatly but even with these amendments I don't think it meets the great evil against which it is directed. There is but one way to deal with this question and that is to pass an act of congress absolutely forbidding the coming of Chinese to this country, except diplomatic representatives, and as absolutely preventing the return of those now here under any pretense whatever. This is the character of a bill I introduced early in the session. Tt is not necessary for this government to obtain the consent of any nation, either European or Asiatic, to the exclusion by legislation of persons or classes whom we may deem objectionable. That power "inheres in the United States and in its congress."
Senator Jones, of Nevada, said: There is uothing to say except that if the statement that the treaty is rejected by China shall be confirmed officially, congress ought immediately to pass a law excluding the Chinese. They must be kept out. We cannot sutler an evil to continue and grow until it becomes ineradicable merely for the sake of preserving a treaty which the united judgment of the people of the country holds to be incompatable with our national welfare.
Senator Teller of it. I hope the officially confirmed.
said: I am glad statement will be This government
has the right to exclude any people it chooses to keep out. I am opposed to excluding anybody by treaty, because that's an admission that we can't exclude them without a treaty. This treaty provided for the exclusion of the Chinese for twenty years. Now supposing at the end of that time the Chinese government refuses to make a new treaty, what kind of a fix would that leave us in?"
A Very Close Call.
CIIICAIo, September 1.—The outgoing train on the St. Paul road struck a man at the Indiana street crossing last night, and before the train could be stopped dragged him about 100 feet. He was found wedged under the engine in such a way that the locomotive had to be raised with jack screws in order to extricate him. He was taken out in an uuconscious condition and removed to the county hospital. While physicians were working over him he regained consciousness, aud, after making a hasty examination of himself, and finding that he was uninjured, he bade the attendants good night and left for heme. He said his name was Paul Lohlei.
The Distillery Resumes.
Mr. John Beggs, of the distillery, said last evening that the distillery had started up, that is. yeast had been made yesterday. The first mash will be made on Tuesday. Mr. Beggs said the capacity at first would be about eighteen hundred and fifty bushels per day, but this will be increased within a short time until something over twenty-six hundred bushels will be consumed daily. The distillery was closed for about a mouth, for the purpose of making some repairs. Mr. Beggs said that the distillery has entered upon a steady run.

AKOTHEB HARRISON RELIC.
A Drum Carrifd In General Harrison's Regiment During the War. In one of the rooms in the basement of the court house there is a collection of relics of the late rebellion. There are pieces of shells, old muskets, sabres and various other accoutrements of modern warfare. Among the relics is one which has been placed there within the last few days. It is a drum, that is what is left of a drum, which no doubt was heard by General Ben Harrison during the rebellion, and which 6ent a thrill through the veins of the gallant boys of the old Eighty-fifth Indiana. At first sight one would say that the relic was a half-bushel measure. It has not much resemblance of the instrument it formerly was. Both heads are out and the chords are wanting. The ruins of the heads are still on and there are the holes for the chords. Dur-ing-the quarter of a century since the drum was in martial use the painting has become almost entirely effaced. On the side, however, can be seen an American eagle which the lapse of years has not yet entirely effaced, although one must look closely to distinguish the outlines. Above the eagle were painted in gilt the American stars but they too have lost their lustre. On a small piece of paper pasted on the drum is the following:
Drum carried from Nashville, Term., to Savannah, Ga., by a member of an Ohio reflment, Irom there to Washington. L. C., by S. C. Harrison, drummer Co. K, Eighty-fifth Indiana.
Mr. Harrison is the night watchman at the court house and is an ardent Harrison man. He was with Harrison in the Eighty-fifth knew him well, and the above inscription is an epitome of tl history of the drum. Since the war he has retained the drum as a relic, but when Harrison was nominated attached greater value to it. It is the intention to have the drum repainted and heads put in it. It will be restored as nearly as possible to the appearance it had during the war and Mr. Harrison, whose name is the same as that of the presidential candidate, although not related, will enter a drum corps and once more the drum will be heard, in this instance for the success of the party which saved the Union.
A QUESTION OF EXTRADITION.
A I'oint Raised Before Judge Mark Agaiust a Prisoner'* Removal. There,was a new point presented to Judge Mack yesterday. It was the first instance it had been raised since Judge Mack was on the bench and a similar instance is not recorded. There is in the county jail a young man who gave his name as Roth, but whose real name is Rhoads. He is charged with the theft of a horse in Edgar county, Illinois. He protested his innocence and refused to return to Illinois without a requisition. This process of law was gone through with and yesterday the requisition arrived and the sheriff was here to take his man back. Attorney Harper appeared before the judge and cited him to section 1,605, which provides that if it can be shown that a resident of the state, who is charged with the commission of a felony in another, was in the state at the time, he cannot be taken out of the state to answer to the charge. It is necessary to place these facts before the court and a hearing can not be denied. The defense claim to have numerous witnesses to prove that Rhoads was in this county when the horse was stolen. The Illinois sheriff claims to have witnesses to show he was in his county. The court set the caee for a week from Tuesday and interesting proceedings are expected. The court will have nothing to do in determining the guilt or innocence of the accused, except so far as involved in the question of extradition. Judge Mack said he was in the legislature when the statute was enacted. Some one had been taken by a requisition to Mississippi, as the court now remembers it, and it was proven he lived in this state when the alleged misdemeanor was committed. The statute was passed to prevent unwarranted extradition of citizens of the state.
Kilueutional Itoaril Meeting. There was a full attendance at the meeting of the educational board at the ollice of County Superintendent Curry yesterday afternoon. The trustees of the twelve townships were all present, and before the meeting quite a number of teachers were circulating among them. The meeting was especially for the purpose of selecting a spelling book for use in the schools throughout the county. For the past six years the Bookwaiter speller has been in use. An effort was made to substitute another, but it was not successful. There was a spirited contest, but when put to a vote the speller in use at present received nine votes against three for a change. No other business of importance was transacted.
The city school board met in session yesterday morning and allowed some bills for work done on contracts.

MANUFACTURING NEWS.
A Marked Improvement Shown in Ncarlv All Lines. BOSTON, September 1.—The Boston Commercial Bulletin in its weekly review of the manufacturing news of the country says: "The textile industries have suffered the most severe, but also show a very marked improvement. Troubles among the cotton mills are chiefly ascribable to labor difficulties. Among woolen mills, the difficult almost without exception, has been caused by a slack demand for goods. The activity among Southern cotton mills is remarkable. There is no news from the silk mills that does not speak of the extension of old industries. The rate of increase in the shoe shops of New England is as marked and satisfactory as that of the cotton mills in the South. Glass making is everywhere picking up, and even the factory on Cape Cod has reconsidered its decision to go out of the business. The improvement in iron and steel, though less marked than in other industries, is worthy of note, extending as it does from Troy to Carondelet and from Voungstown to Addison. The formation of two copper working companies has been the feature of the week."
Henry Was Dry, Too.
"Henry," 6aid his wife, in a vexed tone, "why do you go out between each act?" "Because the play is so dry," said Henry, putting another clove in his mouth. "Well then," returned the puzzled woman, "why don't you keep your seat and let the play go out, if it is so dry?"
Henry evasively replied, aiming his opera glass at the stage.—[Norristown llerald.
SORE FROM KM TO AMI
Skin entirely gone. Fiesli a mass of Disease. Leg diminished one-third in site. Condition hopeless. Cured by the Cut! cura Remedies.
For three years I was almost crippled with an awful sore leg from my knee down to my ankle: the skin was entirely gone, and the tlesh was one mass of disease. Some physicians pronounced It incurable. It had diminished about one-tlilrd the size of the other, and I was In a hopeless condl tloa. After trying all kinds of remedies and spending hundreds of dollars, from which I got no relief whatever, I was persuaded to try your Cutlcura Remedies, and the result was as follows: After three days I noticed a decided change for the belter, and at the end ot two months I was completely cured. My flesh was purified, and the bone (which had been exposed fer over a year) got sound. The flesh began to grow, and to-day. and for nearly two years past, my leg is as well as ever It was. sound In every respect, and not a sign of the disease to be seen.

His long and intimate acquaintance with his distinguished subject will enable him to prepare rapidly an authentic and deeply interesting biography.
His large experience in national and international affairs tits him to treat understandingly and ably of General Harrison's superb record as a statesman, and clearly to unfold the principles held by him respecting the science of good government, and the weighty issues at stake in the present contest.
Gen. Wallace at lirst declined this task but upon the urgent solicitation of many eminent men of the party, and Gen. Harrison's assuranee that everything needful should be placed at hiB disposal, so as to make it'strictly authentic. and only authorized Biography, he yielded to the call, and has agreed to complete the work for publication by Hubbard Brothers of Philadelphia, early in AuguBt.
