WANTS THE LAW ENFORCED
Congressman Oaminotti of California on
the Geary Bill ,
HE INTERVIEWS PRESIDENT CLEVELAND
In the Opinion of tlio Concrcusninii the
l.n\r Will lin Ilnforcpd-Vlslt of the
Chinese Minister to the Stnto
Deportment.
WASHINGTON , D. C. , May 17. Congress
man Camlnctti of California hnd n short
conference with the president this morning
tind loft the white house feeling assured
that it was the Intention of the president to
see athat the Chinese restriction act was
enforced. Mr. Camlncltl denied that It
would take anything like the sum of money
that has been mentioned to enforce the act ,
for the reason that those Chinese entitled to
remain would have secured their certificates
at tholrown expense and that these ngalnst
whom the law Is really aimed wilt bo fright
ened out of the country the moment an
honest attempt is made to enforce It. Mr.
Cammottl is of the opinion that what ad
ditional money may bo needed will bo voted
at the next session of congress and he fears
no repeal of the law.
Hoports from forty of the sixty-three inter
nal rovcnuo districts show that Sin.BOl
Chinese have registered. No reports have
yet been received from the Pacific coast dis
tricts.

WASHINGTON , D. C. , May 17. The findings
of the general court martial , convened at
Fort Lcavenworth , Kan , , for the trial of
Captain W. A. fc > . Johnson , retired , have been
received , and the recommendation in the
case is disapproved by President Cleveland.
The court martial was presided over by
Colonel James W. Forsyth of the Seventh
cavalry , and Captain Sydney W. Taylor ,
Fourth artillery , was Judge advocate.
The general cliargo against the ofllccr was
conduct unbecoming an ofllcer and n gentle
man , ro which there wore several specifica
tions. Each specification gives a case In
which Captain Johnson became indebted to
persons or banks , which Indebtedness ho
failed to pay. The second and third speci
fications state that ho also duplicated his
pay accounts. Tno third specification , the
only ono on which ho was found guilty ,
states that Johnson assigned and transferred
to II. Forbes &Co. ot Boston , his pay account
and claim for pay for the month of January ,
18' 13 , and also assigned and transferred his
salary for the same month to the Central
National b-ink of Sprlngflold , Mo. The ac
counts were presented for payment by both
assignees on the same- any and because of
the double assignment and presentation pay
ment was refused und Secretary Lament
ordered Johnson's pay for the month wholly
stopped. The court finds him guilty of the
third specification only , and. on the general
charge , "not guilty , " but ' 'guilty of conduct
to the prejudice of good order and military
dlscipllfao. "
The court sentenced him "to bo repri
manded by the reviewing authority. "
The following is Secretary Lament's order
in the case : "In the foregoing case of Cap
tain W. S. Johnson , retired , the findings on
the first and second specifications aud upon
the charge and sentence of the court are dis
approved by direction of the president. In
private life , a person tried and adjudged
guilty of assigning property as collateral
and then collecting and appropriating its
avails to his own use , or of transferring for
value received , the same property to separate
persons , would bo subjected to-severe and
humiliating uunishmcnt. That a court mar
tial , composed of ofllcers of rank nnd ex
perience , should so lightly record similar
offenses , hero fully established and found ,
is a reproach to the service and the proceed
ing Is in marked inconsistency with tlio duty
of protecting and maintaining the high sense
of personal honor which has long character
ized the reputation of the army : "

WASHINGTON , D. C. , May 17. A party of
prominent New Yorkers , consisting of Oscar
S. Straus , ex-minister to Turkey , Jcsso
Sehgman , Julius Goldman , Colonel John B.
Weber and M. S. Isaac , who arrived in
Washington last night , called on Secretary
Gresham this morning and had a conference
with him. Secretary Gresham and the
members of the party refused to talk
about the subject discussed , but it
Is understood that the delegation asked
that some uetlon bo taken with a view to
having this government insist that passports
Issued to American citl/ens ot the Jewish
faith who contemplate visiting Russia shall
bo vised by Russian consuls at various
ports. The recent refusal of the Uus-
slan consul at Now York to counter
sign the passport of a Jewish woman ,
whoso husband is an American cltbcn ,
on the ground that his government for
bade him from doing so , is said to bo the
underlying reason for the reported protest.
Inquiry at the State department developed
that such n law governed consuls of the
Russian government and that the United
States is obliged to rccognlzo it.

ages'did not originate with the great poet. In the old play of Damon and Pythias wo have : "Pythagoras said that this
world was like a stage , whereon many play their parts. " In the Treasury of Modern Times , 1013 , is a division of the life of
man into set-en ayes , said to bo taken from Proclus , and it appears from Brown's Vulgar Errors that Hippocrates also di
vided man's lifo into seven degrees or stages , though ho differs from Proclus in the number of years allotted to each stago.
Dr. Honly mentions nn old emblematical print entitled , The Stage of Man's Lifo Divided Into Seven Ages , from which ho
thinks Shukospoaro moro likely to have taken his hint than from Hippocrates or Proclus. Shakespeare used the same idea
moro than pnco in his plays.
Not only will the severe-eyed justice fine plenty of "wiso saws" in the Encyclopedia Britannica , but ho will also
flnd abundance of "modern instances. "
The cost is not to be considered , for ho , like the poorest petitioner that comes before him , can purchase Iho
Britannica for 10 cents a day.
