Victoria, 11. a, Jan. 9. R. M. S.
Empress of Japan, which was In
jured In collision with the bark Abbey
Palmer on her last trip out, michtd
Victoria from the Orient this morn
ing The nrrhnl of tho Japan witnessed
tho first test of the Nat il net
omccr Ellis was on hand with an In
terpreter to enforce provisions n' re
cent legislation whereby nil thoso un
nble to read certnln forms In English
are not permitted to land In the prov
ince. Tort j -two Chinamen landed at
Victoria. howcer. Thero were no Ja
panese. Omccr Ellis states that h wi.l
arrest one out of tho fort-twu China
men who disembarked hero, ind Deck
to have tho case teste' lu court.
Authorities seem miceitnli. as jet
whether or not to enforco the la
against Chinamen who are nlrradv
subjected to head tax by dominion gov
ernment, nnd hence ennnot Ip the opin
ion of many be excluded under pro In
clnl act. Hend tnx on theso Chinese
was tnken and they wero allowed to
land unmolested.
In connection with the above dis
patch, It may be mentioned Hint thero
nppcnrs to he n ill entity of opinion
concerning the right of the provincial
government to apply the educational
test to tho Chinese. The educntlonnl
provision In the provincial act reads as
follows:
"Section 3 The Immigration Into
British Columbia of any person who,
when nsked to do un by tho oflker np
polntcil under this net, shall fall him
self to write out and sign. In the char
acter of some language of Europe, an
Application to the provincial secretary
of tho provlnco of British Columbln,
to the effect of the form set out In scho
dulo "II'' to this act annexed, shall be
unlawful. Thero are severe penalties
attached to tho evasion of tho act.
This section of the net Is plain
enough but thero Is a saving clause,
which entirely niters the situation. It Is
provided In clauso (f), section 2, that
among others this act shall not npplj
to "Any persons tho terms of whoro
cntr Into Canada hnvo bcn flx"d, or
whose exclusion from Canada has been
ordered liy un act of tho parl'anieut of
Canada."
It would appear from tho foregoing
clnuso that In bo far as the Chinese are
concerned, tho provincial government
has no right to apply the educational
test as per the provisions of section 3,
owing to tho head ,i'"e pi mil on Chi
nese by tho Dominion g-x trnment 1 ho
piovliutnl officer of Immigration heir.
Mr. Angus McAllister, so Interprets
the ait hut still thero are some i'1'fcr
enccs of opinion.

BELL COMPANY PAYS
i $500,000 FOR INVENTION
Possible to Telephone from New York
to London Series of Induction
Coils Overcomes Resistance
-New Cables Needed.
New York, Jan. 15. Tho Herald
sajs:
According to the statsmenl.i of Prof.
Mi.hael Pupln, adjunct profcrsnr of
mechanics In Columbia University, tho
American Bell Tclcphono nnd Tele
graph Company has paid him, Instead
of $200,000 ns originally stated, marlr
$500 000 for his recent Invention of a
Bjstom by which ocean telephony Is
mado possible This Is In addition to
the annual rojalty of $15 000 a joar
during the life of the patents
"The Bell Company has tested th
Invention for six months." he said,
"nnd express themselves ns perfectly
sntlsflcd with It The question of ocean
telephony Is solved from n sclentlfl;
standpoint nnd there now remains only
tho commercial iiuestlon.
"Thero Is no doubt that as booh as
tho financial part of the matter Is set
tled It will bo perfectly possible to
telephone to San Tranclsco nnd London
nnd to send cable messages to Europe
at far less cost than at present.
"Ilrleflj-," the professor added, "tho
question had been to overcome resist
ance In tho present ocean cables tho
current Ins so many obstnclcs to bat
tle with thai It Is comparatively slow
In traveling nnd becomes very weak bo
fore It reaches Its destination, 3000
miles nwaj-."
Prof. Pupln. nfter long experiments,
finally discovered that the Insertion of
eight Induction colls to every mile of
wlro would overcome this resistance,
and messages could be sent over tho
cnblo nt n much faster rate.
By this means every time the cur
rent begins to slacken Its strength It
will meet ono of the colls which will
glvo It renewed Impetus till It reaches
the next coll, nnd so on. It Is practi
cally n relay method of supplying
strength. Tho new Bjstem will require
now cables, which will Involve an
enormous outlaj.
It Is this fenturo alono which Is re
tarding tho work nt present. The ca
bles will require no grcnter strength
In electricity nnd no different trans
mitters from thoso used now.
Ills Invention, when applied to land
wires, ho explained, will enable mess
ages to bo sent much further without
relnjlng than at present and will make
conversation between New York nnd
Snn Tranclsco possible.

Chicago, Jan 3. William J. Biy-
na was the guest of honor nt tho an

League, which wus Held tonight nt tnc
Sherman house. It had been planned
bj tho locnl Democrats that n recep

In tho afternoon a telegram wus re
ceived from him sajlng that it would
ho Impossiblu for him to reach the

reception was therefore nonndoned.
Mr. Brjnn did not nrrivo until to
