After the Chinese*San Francisco, May 27.—A JBodte dispatch says: “Some irresponsible parties demanded the discharge of the Chinese employed on the railroad approaching the town. On refusal, about forty armed men went to the Chinese camp, about thirty miles distant. The railroad people sent a courier to the camp, and had the whole outfit, with their supplies, transferred to the island in the center of Mono Lake. The rioters, not being prepared for a long campaign, returned to town ana endeavored to raise a fund to provide provisions, but with slight success. The movement has not the sympathy of the people or of the Miners’ Union, who disavowed any connection with it.”
