Tudge Hanger Gifes & Decision in the
Deportation Case.
LIU HOP HERE IN VIOLATION OF LAW
III. Pretense to Modr Mere Subter
fuge to fialn Entrance to Catted
State from Which tie Is
Ordered Deported.
Judge Munger has handed down a memo
randa opinion In the United States district
court in the case of the Chinese. Liu Hop
nd Iyw Quam, In which Liu Hop l or
dered deported to China and Lew Quam Is
ordered discharged.
Both cases were appeals from the find
ings of "United State Commissioner Ander
son, rendered last winter, In which both
Chinese were decreed as being In the
United States In violation of the acts of
congress and their deportation ordered. In
the Liu Hop cane the opinion of Judga
Munger uses theKe words:
It appears that I.lu Hop Is a Chinaman;
that lie landed In the United States at San
Krnnrlaco July 2, 1K!9. or shortly there
after, and (luring the year 199 he came to
Omaha, where Tie has since readied and
eriKiiRed as a common laborer. His entry
inio the United States was by virtue of a
ten Ideate proper In form, Itiswd by th
colonial pf-cretHry of Mitcau province, dated
M.-iy 17, li!W, which authorized him to enter
the United States to study the English lan
guage and Kurnpean sciences and to live
In the company of his brother, IJu Eng
Fun, manager of the firm of Lun-Slng-'hon,
at Hock Springs. Wyo., and Sun
Francisco, Cal. The only atudy that he has
pursued In this country Is the simple rudi
ments of the English language taught by
his Sunday school teacher. This does not
make him a student of the English lan
guage and European sciences within the
meaning of the act of congress, and I am
clearly of the opinion that the facts as
found by the commissioner, that his com
ing to the United States to atudy tne Eng
llnh language and European sciences as a
student was a mere device to gain entry to
this country and not In good faith to pur
i the mi. .Ilea of a student, are correct,
44id that his real intent una purpose in
Jlling IO inn l nuen Dimes wnr, iui mo
i pose or laooring oniy. i am oi me opin
ion that his entry under tne certificate
mentioned was a fraud upon the United
States ,and such certificate does not afford
him protection. It follows that the finding
and Judgment of the commissioner were
& nfftrmAri nnd T .In Hon la
found to be a Chlnamnn unlawfully within
the United States and Is ordered deported,
back to China.
Merchant Mar Relapse.
; In the Quam case It appear! from
j the vecord that he arrived In the United
"tates at San Francisco January 13, 1800. i
,Jfn a properly executed merchant's certlfl- ;
""""cate. He remained In San Francisco for j
three years In the mercantile business and
then sold out for itflOO, and then came i
IU UIIIUIIA, "CtO v. . . ... J
and has been so employed since without
compensation. Hence he has been a la
borer since coming to Omaha, within the j
meaning of the act of congress. Judge j
Munger's opinion says on this point: j
Had the commissioner found that he had
been a luborer since arriving In this
country. 1 should feel disposed to affirm
the same, but the commlsiaoner has aiade
no limling on that subject. His rinding j
Is in the presont tense, that he Is a laborer.
There being no finding by the commis
sioner on this subject, I am bound by the
.stipulation of facta which present a Klngle I
question of law, to wit: Does the fact
that a Chinaman who lawfully comes to
the United States as a merchant and en
gages In tli. Luslnese for a period' of
"'years and fjr sequently abandon the rner- j
cant'le puT It and followa that of a la
borer, authorize his deportation? I have
carefully read the acts of congress rela- I
tive to the subject and do not find In them
any warrant for saying that a Chinaman
who lawfully enters the United States sub
eequent to the expiration of ix months
ihn loWlnir effect of the act of eon-
areas of November 3. IS93, and In good
faith engages as a merchant for a term
of years and subsequently abandons such
buafnesa and becomes a laborer may be
deported. ...
The decree of the commissioner Is re
Versed and the appellant la ordered discharged.

TOM DENNISON'S FATHER DEAD
Did Man Snccnmba to Blood Poison
ing;, the Reanlt of an T"n
healed Scratch.
Tom Dennlson was called to Jefferson,
W Heb.. Thuraday evening Djr a telegram 10
he effeot that hla father waa dangeroualy
jfN of blood poisoning-. Friday morning- a
f " wnd telegram came to Mr. Dennlson s
died at 8 o'clock In the morning.
So far as can b learned, it seems that
the elder Mr. Dennlson aome daya ago
noticed a scratch on one of his hands. , He
paid no attention to It, did not even know
how he got It. A few hours afterward the
liand and wrist began to swell, and then
the swelling extended to the arm, going as
Kh aa the shoulder.
soon as Tom Dennlson arrived Thurs-
ay nigm ne niia a ppecianni canea irom
Sioux City to co-operate with the family
doctor. All efforts were unavailing and
after many hours of suffering Mr. Dennl
son succumbed, hla age and phyalcal con
dition being handicaps too great to over
Come. Fat Eenntaon, a second son of the dead
nan, was telegraphed and a reply has been
received that he Is too 111 at hla home In
I)enver to come to the funeral of his
father. That misfortune never comes singly
aeemi to be proved In thla case, for It Is but
ax few days sine Thomas Dennlson was
called from Omaha to attend the funeral
Of his stepmother.

MORE WORK FOR POLICEMEN
City Charter Requires that They

"The new charter provides that policemen
shall report bad sidewalks, obstructions on
walk and streets and all defects that hin

City Attorney Hreen. "Also to keep tab
on the street lights and report ouiutf'-s.
The force at the present time Is rolleved
of such duties, but steps should be taken
Immediately by the Board of Fire and Po
lice Commissioners to inaugurate a system
In conformity with the law. It Is a good
meusur and on that will result In a great
deal ef good and economy, la other clues
the policemen are used to great advantage
In the reapecta enumerated. They can and
should do as much here. Cards should be
provided and plans perfected so that the
work will count. With hundreds of miles
of sidewalks eight or ten inspectors can do
practically nothing."
SERGEANT WHELAN'S NEW HAT
Vrtrraa of the fluent Called I lion
to Arrest Himself as a
Hotel Hneak.
Police Sergeant Michael Whelan waj al
most under obligations to arrest himself
for petty larceny this morning. Mr.
Whelan lives at the Murray hotel, and as
he passed out of tha dialog room la
mlnded manner, took a hat which did not
belong to him and left hla own. When he
reached tha police station he was greeted
by the pleasant tonea of Dan Haldwln.
"For heaven's sake, Mike, run back to
the Murray hotel and see If you can catch
a thief. A millionaire from New York
laid his lid down and some one haa atolen
it. He Is In a terrible stew."
Mr. Whelan bethought himself that his
own hat might have been Mtolen, put his
hand tu hla head, and to his amazement
took off a brand new hat which did nut
resemble his own. With a sheepish look
he fled from the etutlon bark to t!.e hotel.
