THE BUCK BELT.
Statistics Concerning the
Colored Population.
A Very Common Popular Belief
Disproved.
The Blacks Not Increasing: as Rap
idly as the Whites.
"The Movement of the Negro Element Is
Southward—A Race Edict and
Other Topics.
Associated Press Dispatches.
"Washington, March 25.—The census
"bureau has in preparation a bulletin
giving the population of the South At
lantic states and South Central states,
and Missouri and Kansas, by races. The
total population embraced in this count
is given as 23,875,269, of which 16,868,
--205 are white; 6,996,166c010red, and 10,
--888 Chinese, Japanese and Indians. In
the states included were found in 1890
fifteen-sixteenths of the colored popula
tion of the United States.
Comparisons for tbe purpose oi ascer
taining the percentage of increase of
colored population in what is known as
the "black belt," during the decade end
ing 1880, led to the popular belief
that the negroes were increasing at
a much larger rate than the whites.
The facts now ascertained sustain the
theory that the high rate of increase
shown in 1880, was apparent, not real,
and was due to imperfect enumeration
in the southern states? in 1879. During
the past decade the colored race has not
held its own against the whites. In but
three decades, that is from 1800 to 1830,
during part of which time the slave trade
was in progress, did the colored race in
crease more rapidly than the white.
Since 1830 the whites have steadily in
creased at a more rapid rate than the
colored people. This increase has not
been effected by immigration, for with
the exception of Kansas and Missouri,
those states received comparatively few
immigrants. In 1830 there were nearly
six colored inhabitants to ten white;
but this proportion has been reduced to
a trifle more than four at the present
date, or by nearly one-third its amount.
The deficiencies of the ninth census,
says Superintendent Porter, are ap
parent.
Several tables are given which show
the movements of the colored element
of population during the last half cen
tury. There has been no extended
movement of this element since the
time of the civil war. Indeed, with the
exception of the District of Columbia
the border states have lost rather than
gained, and during the last decade there
becomes perceptible a southward move
ment of the colored element from the
border states into those bordering the
Gulf, particularly into Mississippi and
Arkansas. In these two states this has
resulted in the production of a more
rapid increase of tbe colored element,
than of the white.
WASHINGTON SdtßK.
The Kin raid Murder Trial and Other
Things About the Capital.
Washington, March 25. —The taking
of testimony in the case of Kincaid, for
the killing of ex-Congressman Taulbee,
began in the criminal court today. Sev
eral witnesses were examined.
The attorney general has received a
letter from Judge Bugbee, judge of the
district court of Alaska, acknowledging
the service oi a rule made by the United
States supreme court, to show cause
why a writ of prohibition should not be
issued in the case oi the British sealer
Sayward, and saying he expected to
make his return by the next steamer.
Secretary Noble today rendered a de
cision affirming the action of the com
missioner of the general land office, in
rejecting the application of Cyrus F.
Clapp, to locate Valentine scrip on 320
acres of unsurveyed land adjacent to the
town of Port Angels, Washington. The
ground for this action is that the land
sought to be entered is within the Port
Angels townsite reservation, and held in
reserve under the act locating townsites
and therefore not subject to location.
The war department has not yet been
formally advised of the alleged conflict
of authority at Sioux Falls, South
Dakota, between army officers and the
state judicial officials, growing out of the
demand of the marshal forthe surrender
of the two Indians held by the army
officers, as the slayers of Lieutenant
Casey. The Indians could not be held
as prisoners of war, and if the army
officers decline to surrender them to the
marshal, it is only because they wish to
make sure the culprits are turned over
to the proper authorities.
Bids were opened at the navy depart
ment today for the purchase of eight
navy vessels, which have been con
demned and ordered to be sold to the
highest bidders. Seven of these vessels
took an active part in the civil war, and
their histories are full of romantic in
terest.
A RACE EDICT.
Colored Men Urged to Boycott the
Haughty Anglo-Saxon.
Washington, March 25.—The inter
state civil and political rights association
of the United States, an organization of
colored men, has issued an address to
the negro voters of the north, in which,
after referring to the defeat of the elec
tions billin the senate, they, say impor
tant elections are to be held this
autumn in northern states where
the negro vote iB the balance of
power, and each negro in the north is
urged to refuse to vote for any candi
date unless he is known to be a firm
friend of the negro, a free ballot and a
fair count. The negroes are urged to
organize for offensive and defensive pur
poses, and "allow the Anglo-Saxon to
light his political battles alone, when
ever he is one of those men who have
said the negroes are an inferior class of
people to the Anglo-Saxon race.

Foreign Nations That Will Take Part

of state that it will participate in the
World's Columbian exposition at Chi
cago. Minister Lincoln also cabled a
brief announcement today that the gov
ernment of Great Britain accepted the
invitation to make a display at the fair.
It is a curious fact that the first act
ion taken before any foreign nation in
connection with the celebration of tbe
400 th anniversary of the discovery of
America, should be the republic of

Rottenness In the State Convict Labor
System Exposed.
St. Paul, Minn., March 25.—The house
committee investigating the state prison
management made a voluminous report
today. It goes back ten years on the
contract system, and finds that by let
ting out convict labor at a low price and
then paying out big prices for work to
the companies employing tbe convicts,
the state paid $900,000 more than it
received from the contractors. In the
discussion of the purchase of binding
twine machinery, crooked methods are
alleged against those securing the ma
chinery for the penitentiary.

AMONG THE COURTS.
THE TRIAL, OF CASHIER MARTIN
AGAIN CONTINUED.
Strong Evidence Against the Defendant
Introduced—Notes Abont Cases Which
Were Acted on Yesterday.
Judge Shaw and a jury were occupied
al) day in department five of the super
ior court yesterday in the trial of the
case against George M. Martin, charged
with having, on September 12th last,
embezzeled the sum of $5000 from the
Southern California railway company,
while in its employ as cashier at the
First-street freight depot.
G. A. Davidson, Jr., a clerk in the
treasurer's office in the Phillips block,
testified to haviug issued a receipt card
for $1442.05, the amount of the dupli
cate certificate of deposit transmitted
from the teller at the Los Angeles Na
tional bank, as the amount of money de
posited by Martin on September l?th.
Since he issued tbe card the figure
"one" had been changed to "six."
H. C. Whitehead said Martin told
him of bis shortage, and explained it by
saying that on the 15th he put the
money, $1000 in gold and $1000 in cur
rency, in a sack and called out to Dunn,
the collector, to take it up to the bank ;
and while he was engaged at the cash
window the sack disappeared. Hesup- (
posed Dunn had taken it to the bank,
and paid no more attention to the mat
ter ; especially as he noticed that the
treasurer's receipt card for September
12th was for $6442.05.
A. H. Brown and three other clerks in
the head office were called; but each
denied that any telephone message had
been received from Martin relative to
keeping his account' open, as he had
$5000 more to deposit.
Walter B. Trull, travelling auditor,
stated that on Monday, September 22d.
he copied off the treasurer's receipt
cards the amounts received from Mar
tin, and went down to "check him out"
and make his report. The amount re
ceived on September 12th was $1442.05.
He was called to San Bernardino that
evening, and hurried off leaving his re
port and the receipt cards on Martin's
desk. On his return, on Tuesday 23d,
he examined Martin's report, and found
that both the card receipt and report for
September 12th showed that the amount
turned in had been changed to $((442.05.
Mr. Dunn, the collector for the South
ern Califorin railroada co oipany, was then
called in, and denied having taken a
sack containing $5000 to the bank on
September 13th, or that Martin ever
called his attention to it, and at this
juncture court adjourned for the day.
The case will be resumed at 10 o'clock
this morning.

DEADUEATS EXPOSED.
Tailor Bills Against "Sasslety" Dudes
Sold for Old Horse.
New Yobk, March 25. —An exciting
scene occurred at the real estate ex
change today, when Martin F. Hatch,
acting for the merchant tailors' society,
stood before a crowd of several hundred
prominent business and society men,
and sold to the highest bidder "thirty
five unpaid tailor bills. These bills
bore the names of well-known New
Yorkers, and those who did not pay up
before the sale were held up for public
ridicule. The ridiculousness of the sale
can be realized when several bills,
amounting to seven hundred odd dol
lars, were sold in a bunch to a Hebrew
tailor for $1.

Last winter I was a first-class candidate for a consumptive's grave. After I had the so-called

Savannah, Cal., August 3d, 1890.
For seven months I was treated by five different doctors, none of whom stated what my dis
ease was. During that time I suffered terribly and continued to fail until I became a
skeleton. For the last threemontbs I had to be dressed, fed and have my water drawn; finally
my feet, limbs, hands and face became swollen. I could not rise from a chair and could
scarcely walk, and was obliged to have my water drawn from fifteen to twenty times a day.
My friends considered I would not last many days. I then—tnree months (go—commenced
treating with Dr Wong. The first dose of medicifie completely relieved roe, and since, I
have not been obliged to resort to artificial means for relieving my bladder. lv 5 days I was
able to dress and feed myself, in 10 days the swelling had left me and I could walk as well as
for years before. I now weigh as much as I ever did and feel better than I have felt for 15
years. lam 75 years old and feel tip top. Dr. Wong says I was afflicted with one of the 14
kinds of kidney diseases. W. W. CHENEY, Rivera, Cal.. August 20,1800
For nearly one year I was treated by the most noted physicians o* New York City to whom
I paid $25 per any for medical advice. They failed to prevent me from Tunning down. Finally
these physicians told my friends that mi case was incurable, and that I could not possibly live
one year as 1 was in the last stages of consumption. Dr. Wong cured me in four months' time,
and I am as well as any man in the world, and have worked hard for two years' time
