WASHINGTON. Nov. 29.-Ths following
letter, sent to-day by senator Sargent to
Secretary Evarts. is self-e1planatoy:
UNITED STATES SENATE CulxBER,
WASHINGTON. Nor. %, 1877.
Hon. William N. Evarts. Secretary oil
State Sir: I have your letter Of the Goth
instant. enclosing TO me . copy OF . tels.
gram sent TO your department. on behalf OF
the Chinese Companies Of San Francisco.
complaining Of open and public threats
by large gatherings Of people made for
several weeks past. to drive out the Chi
nese residents Of San Francisco and de-
stroy their property. and stating that q
procession is to be formed on tho 10th In.
slant for the avowed purpose Of executing
their designs. also stating that heretofore
Chinese residents have been denied the
protection guaranteed them In Articles !.
and II. Of the Cushing and ~. Of the Bur.
lingame treaties, and also asking II ! de-
sire TO mako any communication on the
subject by telegram 10 the Governor Of the
State or 10 the local authorities Of San
Francisco. In reply I desire 10 say that
an enforced absence Of several days past
has prevented an earlier reply 10 your let
ter. have no desire TO send any commu-
nication to the Governor Of California or
to the local authorities Of San Francisco
upon tho subject.matter. They arc fully
informed with reference TO all the facts,
and the local authorities Of San Fran
cisco arc doing everything In their power.
a. they have done In the past TO protect
the Chinese from lAwless demonstrations
and from injuries 10 individuals or tho
Chinese colony a. such. Tho sentiment
Of the best classes Of Ban Francisco IL
firmly and decidedly in favor Of the due
execution Of the laws Of the State 10 pre-
serve the peace Of the community and
protect all classes alike. a. 1t 10 also 10 re-
spect whatever rights may exist under the
treaties referred TO In the telegram. II 10
true that heretofore sporadic cases Of vio-
lcnce against individual Chinese have
occurred. and In some OF the interior
towns OF California there have been as
saults upon Cinnamon and destruction
Of their property TO . limited extent.
The law officers OF the various counties
have sought diligently TO punish cases Of
this character. and have succeeded to q
large extent. Their success certainly com.
pares very favorably with that Of officers
In other States Of the Union. where the
lives and property OF colored men have
been destroyed for political reasons. II Ia
my firm belief that the authorities Of the
State OF California aud OF tho city OF Ban
Francisco are able 10 copo with the Diff
Guilty at present, and have every DISPOSE
ton to prevent lawlsssnsss and violence OF
any character. At the same time II should
be known TO the United States Government
