hero today.dl'sciias thi rcport/ol'thp / > French
ambassador , Barondo Courccl. on the sub
ject of the conversation ho had with the
marquis of Salisbury regarding the pro
posed French outlet on the Nile os being the
leading feature of the yellow Ixiok on the
Fashoda question issued yesterday by the
French government. The conservative or
gan * scout the Idea of the marquis of Salis
bury entertaining the surrender of the
Bnhr-KI-Gbazal valley to the French , and
the Pall Mall Gazette nnd the Globe suggest
that that ambassador mlsundcrntui > the
premier and call on the Litter to malomo
explanation. Tbo liberal and radical papers
ore not displeased at the prospect of a corn-
pro in ) so being arranged , and they bellcvo
that , provided Major Mnrrhnnd is recalled ,
the dispute Is susceptible to an arrangement ; -
ment by which Franco will receive some
satisfaction In the Dahr-El Glnzal district.
The British admiralty Issued a number o :
slgnlflcent ordprs this morning. The ( lock
yards no Portsmouth , Davenport und Chat
ham have each received Instructions to pre
pare six thirty-knot torpedo boat destroyers
for commissioning , no that they will be able
to put to sea In twenty-four hours. Over
time hours have begun on the first clans
cruisers Kuropa nnd Andromeda so aa to
hurry them for sen service. Several sun-
boats In the different dock yaids have been
ordered to postpone sailing for necessary
refitting.
Another Illnc Hook.
The British government will Issue another
bluebook tonight , the most Important fea
ture of which will be a dispatch dated Oc
tober 12 from the marquis of Salisbury to
the British ambassador at Paris , air Ed-
mend Mon on , reporting the previous In-
tervlow with Baron do Courccl In which
the latter wished to ascertain what solu
tion of the question was possible. In this
dispatch the marquis of Salisbury says :
"I generally Insisted that the Nile valley
had belonged nnd still belonged to Egypt
and that whatever diminution that title
hud suffered by the Mahdl's conquest had
been removed by the victory at Omdur-
man. "
The Salisbury dispatch in conclusion ' said :
'The.extreme iWdeflhfioncsrf ot Baron do
Courccl's proposltloiv'rrta'deilt-'lmp'osslblo for
me to exriress or'ld'forin an , ODlnlon rela
tive to the territory claimed by Franco In
the Bahr-El-Ghazul region. Under the cir
cumstances the dlscuifllon was fruitful of
misapprehension. I Informed him that it
was In no way my duty to discuss the
French claims now , but that In abstaining
therefrom I must not be viewed as In any
degree admitting their validity. "
The marquis of Salisbury then pointed
out the aptness of Major Marchand's posi
tion , which Baron de Courccl denied , and
finally the premier. In response to Baron
do Courcel's suggestion , offered to supply
Major Marchand with food and ammunition
In order that ho might bo able to reach
French territory. Baron do Courcel then
Bald Franco wanted an outlet to the Nile
nnd the marquis of Salisbury requested that
the whole proposition bo made In writing.
This was .the last Interview between the
ambassador ] and the premier on this .sub
ject. Baron do Courcel' then went ( o Paris
nud It Is thought that the proposition which
ho brings tonight cmbodlee the , points In
dicated In this conversation.

PARIS , Oct. 24. The newspapers hero
warmlypralqe the exposition of the French
side of the Fashoda question presented by
the minister of foreign affairs , M. Delcassc ,
in the yellow book on thq subject Issued
yesterday. The Figaro says : "If the Brit
ish government rejects France's moderate
und Just proposals It can only be because
the government of Great Britain desires
before everything else the humiliation of
France. "
The general tone of the Froqch press com
ments Is reflected by the Eclair , which re-
.maiks : "An agreement regarding Fashoda
"can bo arrived at provided Great Britain
docs not persist In asking for the Immedi
ate recall of Major Marchand. But as to
an outlet on the Nile , we have an absolute
light thereto and will brook no refusal. "
The Slecle. after urging peace , says :
"Franco would hardly come off bettor In n
war with England than did Spain In the
war with the United States. Franco would
be better employed In developing her col
onies than In thwarting England. "
The Autortte declares that Franco ought
never , t have B < yic.o } Fashotla..tujdjpgl ; "It

NEW YORK , Oct. 24. Flro broke out this
afternoon at Pier 33. East river , Brooklyn ,
and did damage to the amount of J500.000.
Pier S ! ) adjoins the naval atores of George
L. Hammond , extending from Coffee to Wal-
cott streets. At Pier 3D the four-masted
British ship Andorcnha was lying discharg
ing a cargo composed principally of Jute
butts , saltpetre , shellac nnd raw silk. A
north wind fanned the flames fiercely and In
a few minutes the water front for four
blocks , extending from Vandyke Walcott
streets , was nblaie. Heavy black smoke set
tled over the East river as far as Long
Island soupd and extended over the lower
part of Brooklyn BO that It became neces
sary to light lamps In business bouse * .
The heaviest loss Is that of George L.
Hammond , owner of the naval Mores , which
IB estimated at $100,000. The Andorenha is
owned by F. W. Roberts'df Liverpool , Erig. .
nnd Is valued at , $300.000. It. was consigned
to Ralll Brothers , commission merchants.
The blazing vessel will probably prove a
total loss. The Brooklyn Warehouse com
pany will lose probably $150,000. The three-
maatcd schooner Wacamwa , laden with ben
zine , alcohol and turpentine , which arrived
from Georgetown , S. C. , early in the day
and was tied up at the foot of Coffee street ,
took flro and was towed out Into the stream
where the flames were extinguished. A largo
part of the cargo of the Andorenha had been
discharged , and wnon the fire started two
lighters were loaded with Jute from the
hold. The loss to these lighters will be
about $6,000.

Attorney General . .Gri'ggs'and Secretaries
Lonit , Hav and AltcY called nt about 10
o'clock and the president discussed with
them several matters which ho found await
ing his attention on his arrival from the
west. A telegram from General Wndo at
Havana was read , recommending that the
limit of time allowed the Spaniards to va
cate Cuba bo extended from December 1 to
January 1 , Ho said It would bo phys
ically Impossible for the 121,000 Spanish
troo3 now * on the Island to leave before
tbo first of the year , and ho regarded the
extension of tlmo as reasonable and Just.
After the matter had been discussed at
some length an agreement was reached , and
General Wade waa telegraphed that his
recommendation was approved. In the mean
time , however , the United States troops now
In Cuba , and others to bo dispatched , will
take possession of the territory ns fast as
the Spaniards vacate it , probably leaving
Havana to ( he last.
In regard to the reported purpose of the
Spaniards to dismount and to remove to
Spain the heavy ordnance of the forts and
arsenals about Havana , It was stated In
positive terms that nothing of the kind
1 would bo permitted nnd if this movement
I has already begun It would bo stopped at
i once. The Instructions given our ovacua-
I tlon commissioners at Havana covered all of
these questions and explicitly provided that
only the arms In the hands of the troops nnd
what Is generally understood as Impedi
menta would bo permitted to bo taken away.

It Is Impossible to obtain a full list of the

by the whites where they fell.
Governor McLaurln went to Harpcrsvlllo
last night and appealed to the whites not to
raplest the prisoners in the custody of the
sheriff. The governor's talk had a good ef
fect on the majority of these In the crowd ,
but some of the hot headed members did
not relish the governor's Interference , but
ho finally persuaded the crowd to permit
the sheriff to take the prisoners to jail.
Sheriff Stepheneou has placed additional
guards at the Forest Jail to prevent the
lynching of the rioters now In custody.
Two negroes who are under arrest have
tnndo full confessions.
The funeral of the murdered officer , Sib-
ley , occurred at Harpcrsvlllo today and was
attended by hundreds of people. It is re
ported hero that two of the murdered man'a
brothers are on their way from home In
Yaroo county at the head of a largo crowd

HEATHEN CHINEE IS SMOOTH
Unolo Sain Has Been Bamboozled Again
Most Scandalously.
WONG CUING FOO TURNS THE TRICK
Two Hundred mill Thirly-KllM I.n-
liorem ISnter Under tiiiluc of Ar-
tlnnni for n Chinese i\lilhlt
nnil All llHAO. DUiipponri'il. '
'U Is now1 pretty otrtaln that the Chlnoao
brought to this city last Juno by the Wong1
Chlng Fee company and who have since
disappeared do not Intend to return nnd It
la equally certain that they did not come
here expecting that they would be returned
< o China upon the closing of the exposition
or at uny subsequent time. Recent devel
opments Indicate that there was n conspiracy
to get them Into this country , evading the
laws , nnd then allowing them to lose them
selves , as they have done during the last few-
weeks. These assertions are borne out by
Wan Loy , who wa the trusted agent and
employe of the Wong Chlng Fee company
up to and Including the date of the de
parture of the celestials for other ollmos.
Wan Loy Is still In the city and talked
freely of the matters lending up to the Im
portation of the Chinese , their residence
hero and their final departure. He linn
taken out naturalization papers , speaks good
English and Is n bright fellow. He cnme
from Chicago last spring and has remained
hero since that time. Speaking of the affairs
leading up to the coming of the Chinese
ho said : "For a number of years prior to
last March I lived In Chicago. There I met
Wong Chlng Fee , who told tuo that ho had
organized a company and that ho proposed
to bring a lot of Chinese to Omaha nnd put
In an exhibit nt the exposition. Ho-fcnld
the company had plenty of capital and In
cluded a lot of rich Chinamen of Chicago
and New York. Ho showed mo the arti
cles of Incorpotation , from which I learned
that the capital stock was $20,000 , $3,000
paid by a Now York Chinaman and the
balance by Chicago men. The president was
Wong Chlng Fee ; treasurer , Wong Ke , and
secretary , Yeo Man , all of Chicago. With
an understanding that I was to receive $75
per month I came to Omaha with Wong
Chlng Fee and commenced arranging for
the exhibit. Four hundred dollars of my
salary IB still duo and unpaid.
for Iliinliieim.
"After getting hero Wong Cblng Fee
spent money very freely. He paid for the
plans of a building that was subsequently
built at a cost of $2,000 on space for which
ho paid $2,000. Soon after getting the
building up he- told inc. ho was having
trouble with the government authorities nt
Port Townsend , ns they refused to admit
the people whom he had shipped from Hong
Kong. I asked him what was the matter
and was Informed that the officers nt the
port of entry were kicking on letting the
people In. 1 don't know how this matter
was fixed up , but early In June 23S China
men came hero over the Milwaukee road.
They had been sent over the Northern Pa
cific to St. Paul and from there to Omaha
over the Milwaukee. Upon reaching here
they wore all put in an old vacant store
building nt Twenty-fourth nnd Hamilton
streets , where they remained for gome
weeks. Not more than a half dozen of thcnt
ever came to the exposition grounds , an
there was nothing hero for them to do , as
the exhibit consisted of only a store In
which there was a small stock of goods for
sale.
"Shortly after the opening of tnc fitoro
Sing Nam came huro from Chicago and then
the business w.as turned over to him and
the Sing Nam company succeeded the Wong
Chlug Fee company. With the organization
of the now company the Chinese commenced
to disappear , going In every direction , some
to the largo cities , but most of' them to the
smaller town in the surrounding states ,
though I know that some went aa far as
Chicago , some to Denver , others to New
Orleans and some even as far as New York.
They made np secret of their going , many
of them telling mo that they had paid all
of their debts and were at liberty to go
when and where they pleased. The last lot
left town about ten days ago , going I think
to Chicago.
\Vlint ThejI'll Id to Get Here.
"Theso men all paid to get away , part of
the monpy being turned over in Hong Kens
at the olflce of the Wong Ching Fee com
pany and the balance was paid after reach
ing Omaha. Who got the money I cannot
say. I know that to reach the United Statea
cost every one of the 238 Chinamen $350 in
cash. Half of the money , as I said before ,
was paid to the company in Hong Kong
and out of this the passage money , $84 per
head , was paid. Upon reaching Port Townsend -
send the balance was turned over to the
company's agent there and In my Judgment
the delay at that place was due to the fact
that some of the men did not make the second
end payment according to the contract en
tered Into beforeleaving1 Hong Kong , for
aftpr that everything went along with great
smoothness and thc-ro was no trouble about
anything.
"I don't think any of the government offi
cials hero are mixed up In the matter In the
least , for when the Chinese reached here
their papers were all right. Of course there
was trouble about some of the goods , but
they were nnd arc still owned by another
company , the Lan Hlng Trading company
of Hong Kong. The people in this company
sent the goods over to sell , but I don't think
that the Wong Ching Fee company over
intended to sell them , as It took only enough
out of bond to stock the little store on the
exposition grounds and Just make a show
ing In order to throw people off the track
In the event that < the United States ofilccrs
should stir up a muss before the Chinese
scattered.
Didn't Intend to ( Jo llnck.
"I know that none of the 233 men brought
hero ever expected to bo returned to China ,
for I talked with a great many of them
and they all told me the same story , saying
they had fixed things so they could remain
in the United States as long as they pleased
and that they would not be Interfered wl h
BO long as they kept out of sight until after
the first trouble had blown over.
"All the Chinese who came over In the
party ore ordinary laborers and could lu no
wise portray the manners and customs of
China. They are of the poorer class , and It
will take years for them to earn enough
money to pay for the freedom which they
have secured , but they will do It In time.
To raise this money , they borrowed from
their friends and their friends In turn bor
rowed from their friends , so that to get
the 238 men into this country nt least 760
or 1,000 ineu are obligated to pay this debt ,
1 In China coming to America Is rcRn-ilcd
ns the next thins to going to heavin , nm >
It a man can ovndc the laws and slip lu
hero he and his friends will pay all th. ) ob-
llg.itlons incurred , even If It takes tiio tlmo
nnd labors of half a dozen generations to
wipe out the debt. "
