Perhaps the most severe measure intended
to drive the Chinese out Of California is u law
passed at the last session Of the California Leg
lsature restricting the exhumation and removal
Of the bodies OF the dead. The act provides that
bodies shall not be eXhumed without permit
granted by the proper authorities on the certin-
cate OF the Coroner or Of the physician who last
attended the dead person as TO the cause Of
death. For each permit the sum Of 80 must he
paid. and the body must be enclosed in metal
lie casket. similar permit is made necessary
for tina transportation Of dsinterred body
through streets and highways Violation Of the
law is punishable by fine Of from 500 to $500
or imprisonment for from thirty days to six
months, or 10y both such fine and imprisonment
In order that the act may affect the Chinese
only 1t is specially provided that 1t shall not ap
ply to the removal Of the remains OF dead per-
sons from one cemetery to another within the

instantly killed. Alarge number OF per.
sons, including women and children, were
slightly burned, making the total casaul-
ties forty. The foundry Of Williams &
