A special to the Press from Washington says: The Chinese exclusion law will expire on May 5th next. The labor organizations of the country will demand of Congress the re-enactment of the law. John W. Hayes, secretary of the Knights of Labor, was the commission er appointed In 1892 to visit San Fran cisco and report upon the conditions there respecting the Chinese. He spent several days in that city and made a report upon which the Knights of La bor based their fight. "When the matter was first taken up In the House," said Hayes today, 'Con gressman Hitt, who was opposed to the exclusion act, had a majority of the House with him, but we filed hundreds of thousands of petitions they cov ered two or three desks when they were piled up for exhibition and so, when the vote was taken, he only had twenty eight members voting with him. We are proceeding this year with the same methods. We already have sent out 100.000 copies of the appeal of the Sun Francisco local assembly, asking for the re-enactment of the exclusion law, upon the ground that if such action is not taken the tide of Chinese immigra tion will sweep upon us. "I have no doubt that we will bj able to get the bill through the House, be- , cause the next Congress meets on the jeve of the Congressional election, and the members will respect the position of the workingmen of the country. Whether we will be so fortunate in the Senate is, to my mind, uncertain. I am afraid that the administration will j want some legislation for the Philip ! pines, and its representatives in the I Senate will hold up the Chinese exclu sion law until an agreement is reached (to give them the Philippine legislation which they desire. I may be wrong, and I hope I am, but at any rate I look for ward to a determined contest. In the end, however, we must win." "It is to be a fierce fight." was the comment of Frank Morrison, secretary of the American Federation of Labor. "We are not only in favor of extending the Chinese exclusion law so as to make it unlimited in time, but also to make it effective against all the Oriental races." ANARCHISTS AND WOODEN DUMMIES Three Desperate Men. FOKT MORGAN, Colo., June 14. Three men, named Harry Simmington, Stacey and Givens, held in the county Jail on a charge of burglary, with the aid of confederates on the outside, sawed their way out near midnight. igSimmington had secured a revolver and ammunition. As they were leaving the Jail, they were dis covered by Sheriff Calvert, who tried to stop them, and was shot through the ab domen by Simmington. He will probably die. Deputy Sheriff Nelson raised a posse and soon recaptured Stacey and Givens, but Simmington eluded his pursuers. The authorities have sent to Pueblo for blood hounds. Lynching is threatened if the man Is caught. Despaired of Perpetual Motion. NEW YORK, June 14. William Her ford, an aged German of Williamsburg, is dead by his own hand, having shot himself by the side of a work bench in his carpenter shop after realising that at the end of a thirty years' struggle to find the secret of perpetual motion he was as far as ever from the goal he sought. He was found with a bullet through his brain, his pipe clenched be tween his set teeth and his head resting upon a piece of planking. A Novel Scheme to Get Even With Many Crowned Despots. NEW YORK, June 14. The World says: Wooden dummies wearing metal chest protectors and representing the crowned despots of Europe are to be set up in Liberty Park, Ridgewood, L. I., next Sunday for anarchists to shoot at. This occasion will be the grand an nual love feast of the anarchists of Greater New York. Johann Most will be marshal, ciiief patron and honored guest. The anarchists a year ago passed resolutions declaring that the war which they had made upon capital and power had not met with success So they organized themselves into a rifle club and bought the wooden dum mies. Because of their fear of the po lice the anarchists refuse to admit that the dummies represent anyone. They say they are anonymous dummies, but it is understood that they stand for the Czar of Russia, the German Emperor and other agents of power. Six hundred anarchists have promised to attend and blaze away at the wood en tyrants. Herr Most, it is said, will be one of the sharpshooters. Ray B. Clarke, a vineyardlst of So noma, California, was killed last week by being struck on the head, with a bale rt hnv. MINISTERILOOMIS VINDICATED His Course Was Wholly Satis factory to This Government. NEW YORK, June 14. A dispatch to the Herald from Caracas, Venezuela, says: Local newspapers have published ar ticles to the effect that Charge d' Af faires W. W. Russell of the American le gation has been instructed to notify the Venezuelan Government that the United States had severely reproved Minister Loomis for his conduct regarding the va rious questions pending between the two countries. The Washington corresponuent of the Herald gives what fs claimed to be an authoritative statement which disproves the claims made by the Venezuelan pa per. The statement follows: "Instead of reproving Minister Loomis, the State Department has approved all his acta He acted under Instructions while in Venezuela and carried out these Instructions, and no evidence has been discovered that he deviated from them in a single instance. After his entire conduct had been carefully reviewed and examined, the most complete satisfaction was expressed as to his course." A wealthy American has offered $25,000 for the services of an English lady of no bility who will introduce his daughter In to British society. He made the an nouncement through an advertisement in the London Times. SURRENDER Fitzhugh Lee's Son Was Mortally Wounded, MANILA. June 14. Cailles, the insur gent leader in Laguna province, has become more humble, and now inti mates his willingness to surrender a hundred guns to General Sumner to morrow at Santa Cru?., and to give up the remainder in three days. Colonel Bolanes. with five officers and forty-one rifles, has surrendered at Ilppa, Batangas province. The recent battle with the insurgents at lippa, in which Lieutenant Springer was killed and Captain Wilhelm and Lieutenant Lee were mortally wound ed, was begun by the Americans. The disproportionate number of officers hit is said to be due to the fact that there were several deserters from the Ameri can war with the rebels. The island of Panay Is being ravaged by rinderpest, and so great is the havoc caused by the disease that the natives are hauling carts to Iloilo. WAS IN HONOLULU Death of Oolonel H, P.

Fitch, Illinois, marshal southern district of Illinois; Creighton M. Foraker, New Mexico, marshal Territory of New Mexico. WASHINGTON, June U. President McKinley today put an effectual quie tus on the third-term talk which has gained some currency in the newspapers through interviews with certain well known Republicans favoring the re nomination of the President for a third term. Shortly before today's Cabinet meet ing adjourned Secretary Cortelyou gave to the press a signed statement by the President, intended for the American people, announcing that he was not a candidate for a third term, and would not accept a renomination if one were tendered. The statement in full is as follows: "I regret that the suggestion of a third term has been made. I doubt whether I am called upon to give it no tice. But there are now questions of the gravest importance before the ad ministration and the country, and their just consideration should not be preju diced in the public mind by even the suspicion of the thought of a third term. In view, therefore, of the reitera tion of the suggestion of it, I will say now, once f orjCTf; expressing ' settled conviction,' Want I not and will not be a candidate for a third term, but would not accept a nomination for it, if it were tender ed me. "My only ambition is to serve through my second term to the acceptance of my countrymen, whose generous confi dence I so deeply appreciate, and then, with them, to do my duty in the ranks of private citizenship. "WILLIAM M'KINLEY. Executive Mansion. Washington, D. C, June 10, 1901." A decision to issue this statement was reached last night, when the Presi dent read to the members of the Cabinet hi8 proposed statement, at the same time personally pledging each to se crecy until the public announcement was made. The Cabinet, on hearing the reasons the President advanced, which are substantially set forth in the pub lic announcement, namely, that talk of a third term would react on the nation al policies the administration is endeav oring to promote, coincided with the view of their chief that the present was an opportune time for its promul gation. The phraseology of the an nouncement was considered further by the Cabinet today, and after a change or two in last night's draft, Secretary Cortelyou was directed to make it pub lic. The President's intimate personal and political friends later expressed themselves as not surprised at the de cision announced, but quite generally conceded that they had not expected such an announcement at this time, thinking that the President would not so quickly give heed to the third-term gossip. They said, however, that they believed the President had shown his quick and excellent, political judgment by crushing the third-term movement in its very birth. The President is already being del uged with telegrams commendatory of his announcement putting at rest all third -term rumors. These telegrams began arriving at the White Hose this evening, and are from prominent per sons throughout the country. They place emphasis on the opportuneness of the statement and the beneficent effect on the country from a political standpoint. None of the telegrams was made public. Studying American Police. NEW YORK. June 14. To make a study of the police of this country and their methods in catching crimi nals, Arthur Carl, chief of police of Bremen, Germany, has come here on the Lahn.
