WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.—Owing to the conflict of authority betWeen the state and national quarantine authorities at San Francisco Secretary Gage, after consultation with Surgeon General Wy- man, telegraphed the collector of customs at that port to employ a sumcient force to enforce the federal quarantine regula- tions. The marine hospital service is la- boring earnestly to keep infectious dis- eases out of the country and at San Francisco is directing it; effr ts especial- ly against the bubonic plague, the intro- duction of which is feared from the orient. The local quarantine authorities at San Francisco have, it is stated, dis- regarded the national quarantine regula- tions which the federal authorities believe it is absolutely necessary to enforce. The federal quarantine is supported by the Chamber of Commerce and other com- mercial bodies of San Francisco. Secre- tary Gage believes that the national au- thority in regard to quarantine matters is paramount, and by his directions to the collector at San Francisco the federal regulations will be enforced against the local authorities.

If hens have grain with the clover they will not probably eat too' much of the lighter food for their good. But exclusive reliance 0n cut clover as winter feed for a. day or two may so clog the gizzard with light indigestible food that when grain is given it only makes the matter Worse by furnishing more heating material to ferment in ‘. the crop. Wherever much grain is given to fowls they become too fat to lay, and it is such hens that are most likely to be crop bound. ' . T—"‘—"— Chinese Emelnded Months Ago. WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.———It appears that General Otls’ Chinese exclusion pol- icy was put into 'opcration some months 930, although the Chinese officials were unaware of it and were proceeding on the theory that the question was still open for adjustment between the two govern- ments. Acting Secretary Adee has ad- dressed a letter to the Chinese minister explaining the status of the affair. The letter was forwarded to the Chinese min- ister, who is now at Hot Springs, Va. \Vhat further steps, if any, he will take have not been made known, although the opinion prevails in official Chinese quar- ters that he will see to have the exclu- sion modified, even t ough it is a tempo- rary military expedient. The war de- partment officials will not discuss the matter, but it is understood that the operation of this exclusion under General Otis has not been attended with any diffi- culties.
