Chink Smugglers. El Paso, Tex., Dec 18. That a thoroughly organized band of smugglers for the Importation of Chinese into this country exists, amply supplied with funds for the corruption of officials, developed at the trial at Las Cruces of 28 Chinese captured there coneealed in a box car. They offered the official interpreter $7,000 if he would tell the court a story which would entitle them to remain in this country. They also told him that the headquarters of the syndicate engaged in wholesale smuggling of Chinamen and forging of certificates is In San Francisco, and has an immense
amount of money. The court ordered them deported. Slav Under Suspicion. ' Hazleton. Pa.. Dec 18. Soberta Anaslack. a Slav, living at Jeddo, Pa., was arrested at that place on the charge of being Implicated in the Hazleton barrel mystery. It Is alleged the woman whose charred remains was found here was his wife, who dis
appeared from home several weeks j ago. It is reported the marriage of the couple, which took place a year ago, was opposed by their relatives, ? and that after their wedding they had frequent quarrels.
Postmaster Spekenhier is a firm
believer in the back stamp on all letters and parcels, as he says that it always affords business men 3. recourse to law when they have not re
ceived letters of vast business importance on time. In many instances
letters are of such nature that they
greatly effect the future policies of mercantile establishments and it has been known, that where such letters
have not been receivd on time, bus!
ness houses have lost thousands of
dollars. When the back stamp
placed on a letter the merchant can then fix the blame of the delay and can then seek reimbursement from
the parties who are to blame.
It is understood that the Chicago postoffice which was Instrumental in abolishing the back stamp, because
it saved time in handling the mai
has resumed the custom at the re
quest of many of th Chicago mer
chants. Employes Favor It.
Although all the local employes of
Uncle Sam have considerable more
work to accomplish, when the back stamp is in use, there is none of them but what would take a stand for the
stamp, if it' were left to them to de
cide. The stamp does not only pro
tect the people who send and receive
the letters but fdim protects the of
fice where they are received, against
delay ' complaints.
A prominent Richmond young man received an offer from a Chicago firm some time ago, but the letter written him asking him to come to Chicago
was delayed on the way, and he did
not receive it for several days. In
the meantime the Chicago firm filled
the vacancy and the Richmond man
was "left out in the cold so far as
a position was concerned. He. im
mediately went to the local postoffi
ce authorities and asked why they
had delayed the delivery of the letter.
The back stamp was appealed too
and it was found that the letter had
been delayed some place along the road, as the stamp showed that it had been delivered immediately after
it had reached the local office. It is very probable that the abolishing of the back stamp will never become universal as was first thought after the Chicago offica decided to do away with it.

MESSAGE 0(1 THE FRISCO SITUATION (Continued From Page One.)
rne primary graaes; tnat tney wantea Japanese children now in the United States to have the same school privileges as children of other nations, but tfiat they were unalterably opposed to Japanese young men attending the pfimary grades. TITe electron to Japanese men attending the primary grades could .-very readily be met by a simple rule limiting the ages of all children attending those grades." On the subject of boycott the report recites that there is a sentiment in the unions against patronising Japanese restaurants but no formal ac: tion to that end. The report says that "as a matter of fact, a most effective boycott was maintained against nearly all of the Japanese restaurants located in Ban Francisco for a period of at least three weeks. Pickets were stationed In front of these restaurants and every effort was made to prevent people from patronizing them. At times stones were thrown and windows broken and in one or two instances the proprietors of the restaurants were struck by these stones." Statements of several Japanese are given and a number of
instances of violence cited, provoked by racial hostility; that the assaults are condemned by all good citizens of California and the overwhelming sen
timent is for law and order and protection of Japanese in person and property. After reciting that the of
ficials of San Francisco were impressed with the gravity of the situation, and told that if they are not
able to cope with the situation the entire power of the federal govern
ment will be used promptly and vig
orously to enforce observance of treaties, the secretary says in conclu sion: "If, therefore, the police power of San Francisco is not sufficient tc
meet the situation and guard and pro tect Japanese residents in San Francisco, to whom under our treaty with
Japan we guarantee "full and perfect protection for their persons and property," then, tt seems to me, it is clear
y the duty of the federal government
to afford such protection. All consid
erations which may move a nation; very consideration of duty In the preservation of our treaty obligations,
every consideration prompted by 50 years or more of close friendship with the empire of Japan, would unite in
demanding, it seems to me, of the
United States government and all its
people, the fullest protection' and the
highest consideration for the subjects f Japan." "
