thises with the Chinese.

Chicago, 5.-The Chinese colony II
Chiesgois noticeably increasing. Among
the late arrivals are a number OF women
the first that have located here.
New York, 5.-Papers continue harp
! ing on the latest sensation afforded by
| Chinese arrivals here.
The Herald says: Still the Chinese
come, and California is made poorer by
every one she looses. The same paper
| publishes a highly spiced column OF
alleged Interview between reporter and
! Mrs Timothy Sergeant, claiming to be q
| daughter OF Juan Alvarada, former Mex
| lean governor of California Following
are extr cts: " lille the reporter fingered
| at the door of Woo KEGS hotel an ele-
gait equipage arrived, and lady was
| assisted out by an obsequeOus coachman.
! Ascending the st0op, the lady began sn
animated discussion in the Chinese Ian
| guage with Woo Kee She was visited
st her residence at Twenty-fflh street,
where she spoke as follows: 81 am just
now engaged in making arrangements
for the rec ptio1 aud settlement Of al the
Chinese who may be driven from Cali
forgia by hearney and kslloeh: L am
not arranging any of the details, bat will
assist in their general movements. L sr-
rived here about week ago from Mon
tana, where / have finished branding
some cattle, When l lefE San Francisco
the city was in a terrible state. The
have stopped up the channels of business,
and hundreds of businessmen are prepar-
ing to leave. When / left San Frau
CISCO 1 determined to see what could
be done for the Chinese in New York.
l find there Is ample field for
their labor here, and have sent back
word to that effect. This morning 1
received a telegram from Colonel Bee,
Chimes vice consul in California. 1t
contained a request that should visit
the Chinese headquarters and ask the
companies and merchants to move to the
west side OF the city. The consul is
afraid that if MOngolians stay among
the low classes in Five Points riot may
be precipitated by any of kearney's |
agents, who may come 10 Now York, IN |
the event of a general exodus of the |
Chinese from San Francisco. Woo Kee |
and his neighbour are very uneasy over |
the hostile attitude which the owners of
real estate in their locality have assumed. |
They say they will not be able to stay |
long in Mott street unless something Is |
done in an official way to protect |
them. There ought to be a Chinese consul
in New York. The minister of Washing
ton knows nothing of the condition of
his cOuntrymen here. l tried this morn
ing to rent TWO large buildings near Mott
street. The owner is an Irlshman, and
was just finishing the bargain when l
dropped hint that the property would
be tenanted by a respectable Chinaman.
The owner gave a jump and said, "I'll
lot take 81 900 month fer the property,
I'd sooner pull it down, piece by piece"
This is the main difficulty in settling the
people here. Il is not lack of employ
nent, but q scarcity of dwelling houses.
There are nearly twenty California ladies
who arrived in the city with me. They
intend to fit up their establishments en-
irely with Chinese help, and there is no
1oubt that ladies throughout the metro
polls will be glad to employ Monaghan
iOmestics. There are several vessels on
heir way here with cargoes of Orientsls.
Hundreds are coming, md within a few
lays expect their number will reach
thousands.
