THE CHINESE QUESTION.

A commission was appolnLeu ny Ine
! United States Senate at its last session to
visit California and Investigate the CHI
nese immigration on the Pacific Slope.
! The Chinese question is the great ques-
tion of California; all political parties
are united on 1t, and Americans and
Chinese alike favor it. Ii we are to be.
lIeve the San Francisco Chronicle, the
Chinese question ls already solved, with
out the intervention OF Congress, and
by the Chinese themselves. The perse-
cutions, murders, hangings and other
bad treatment of the Mongolisns in CAL
iiornis have persuaded the:slx great Chi
nese companies that there is no possibil
ity of Christian and Buddhist lying down
in peace together. The six great compa-
nies, in fine, are opposed to Chinese I'M
migration TO this country, and will do
everything in their power not only to
prevent it in future but TO take back to
the Celestial Empire those heatbens
already stranded on this shore. To car
ry out this, they resolved on double
plan of action. Telegrsms were sent to
Hong Kong and other ports from which
the coolies come, giving very highly
colored account of the strike in
Americs, and announcing that Chi
nese immigrants to California would
certainly become the victims either os
hard times and scarcity of food, or OF
the fury and vengeance of the hoodlums.
The success of these stories has already
become apparent by the fact that the
number of incomers from China has, for
the first time IN many years, fallen be-
hind those of the outgoers. In addition
TO this, one FUNK PACK, q leading and
most influential Chinaman, was sent
over to the Flowery Kingdom to agitate
against Chinese emigration, and to do
everything in the world to prevent it.
The second part of the programme Is
as follows: A bill is to be drawn up by
the counsel of the six companies, by the
the terms of which all Cinnamon enter
ing this county after certain specified
time will be required TO pay per capita
tax of $50. This bill, of course, would
be unconstitutional and opposed TO the
fourteenth amendment, but the com.
panies, who alone would object TO it,
agree not to test its constitutionality. by
the terms of this bill board of
commissioners will be appointed to
manage the fund created by the TAX;
this fund is to be used in returning the
Chinese IN this country TO China. AS
the amount of tax that each incoming
Chinaman will pay will be sufficient TO
take some three or four home again, 1t Is
thought that, by this means, California
will soon be freed from the heather.
Thus, by the good sense of the Chinese
themselves and a good kick at the Con-
stitution and equal rights, it Is likely
that we will be able to get rid OF ques-
ton that has been annoying Congress
for q number of years, and which, at
each presidential election, demands a
prominent place in the platform of both
political parties.

CAPITAL NOTES.
THE DEMARARA SUGAR FRAUDs-AN
OFFICIAL BREACH OF TRUST.
MaladministratiOn of G8yernment AHairs
at san FranciscO-Prnb baIsIe Changes.


WASHINGTON, Oct 14.-The Department OF
State will immediately institute inquiry into
the alleged breach Of official trust by Vice
Consul Tengely at Demarara. For some time
the government has been receiving complaints
from official sources ut Baltimore that q high
grade OF sugar, through q chemical process,
was being entered at lower grade. and.
therefore, at @ lower rate of duty, thus de-
frauding the government of large amount
OF revenue. Inquiry has been made OF the
consul at Demarara, Mr.. Tengely. That
officer made an official report on the subject
to the department, and 1t is aseertafned that
through some means @ copy of this report
was received by Baltimore sugar firm
(who, 1t is charged, have been deriving bene-
fit from this illegal prooeeding), in advance of
the Department Of State. and this appears to
have frustrated the efforts of the government
to successfully discover the means by which
these alleged irregularities have been carried
on.
The interests OF the sugar firms OF the
United States evidently require revision Of
the existing system Of collecting duties upon
imported sugars. Any irregularity on the
part OF Importers at one port initiates very
seriously against the business of iuno-
cent persons at other ports. besides
which the government is q large loser In rev.
enue, the loss amounting to millions OF dol
lars. The revenue from imports of sugars
at New York amounts to upwards of S2s.000.-
900, and at Philadelphia to $1,000, 900 anflt1-
ally. There is no question that specific or ad
valorem duty will be imposed by the next
Congress, thus abolishing the old Dutch
standard system, which opens the way to
such gross frauds.
