China does or does not discriminate against
our vessels trading with her various ports.
Is not that easily determined ?" was the
natural query
Oh, yes" he replied, "but it may take
longer between Washington and China. and
between China and Paris. For instance, the
Cabinet has taken no definite action in the
| premises, beyond the Presidents refusal to
Issue proclamation excepting this vessel
from the payment Of dues. / should add,
however, that there is no indication. that we
/ can ind, that China has thus Disseminated.
1t is denied, and L know that the spirit and
: wish of cur Government is to extend every
reasonable and just facility to the Chinese
Empire in all matters OF commerce
The correspondent adds +" In case it shall
be established by the Chinese authorities that
no tax beyond the alien tonnage mentioned
| in the treaty is exacted from American mas
I tiers, that no discriminating duties are made,
and no levies in the shape of excessive pilot
| age, and that our vessels are placed on . par
In this respect with vessels of China herself,
| then the President will issue q proclamation
and the imports levied on the Ho Chung will
be returned, leaving for further consideration
| the factor in the problem which refers to the
! inequality between Chinese and American
vessels in the closed ports of the Empire"
