President Arthur Sends in a We.
to of the Chinese Bill, With
His Reasons Therefore.
The Presidents Veto.

Washington. April 4,-The presidents
veto Of the Chinese bill was received at
twelve o'clock p. H., and was read imme-
dlately. The president said that after
careful consideration he returned the
bill With objections; lie returned it with
his objections us he hela it conflicting
with the treaty of obligations and vio-
lating the faith of the nation and he
hoped that congress would endeavor to
find another that would meet the
expectations of the people
OF the United States. and not conflict
with the rights of China. The president
maintains that neither the representa-
tives CT the United States or China, in
making the treaty of 1880, contemplated
any such prohibition of Chinese immi.
grafton as that proposed in the bill. He
opposed the passport system proposed
in the bill as undemocratic, and said he
thought it unwise to introduce such a
system in this country. The passport
system he said, is falling into disuse in
Europe, and besides. he maintains that
experience has shown that passports are
easily borrowed or even forged.
The president said that Chinese labo,
had been of great value in this country
and that monuments to their industry
existed. They had largely built the Pa.
cific railroads across this continent. but
it might wisely be considered now
whether some limitation may be put upon
immigration of this labor, but if there
Is too much OF it in an occupied country
some labor may be needed in another
section, and the law should consider thi.
and make such limitation as would per
NIT this labor to go where needed
immigration would be limited or restrict
ed to reasonable period. The presi
dent then pointed out the otheTfeature,
OF the act which in his opinion can b.
modified to advantage. The system o
personal registration and passports il
specially mentioned as undemocratic ant
unconstitutional, and he alludes to tn,
omission in the act to make any provis
ion for transit to China of Chinese sub
jects now settling in foreign countries
to which subject, the president adds, hi
attention has been called by the Chi
nese minister. The message refers to th,
alleged benefits to its industry derive,
by the Pacific slope by the presence O
the Chinese.
Immediately after the reception of tn
presidents message vetoing the anti
Chinese bill the president pro tenn sus
pended the operation of business to La
the communication before the senate,an
directed it to be read. The reading Q
OF the message was listened to witt
marked interest by the entire senate.
The message and bill were temporaril,
laid on the table and ordered printed.

Excitement in the New York Stock
Market.


Market.
New York, April 3-The Post IN ex-
planation of the decline in the stock mar
kets says the death by his own hand of
Cornelius J. Vanderbilt, brother of VIM.
II. Vanderbilt, had much to do with the
decline, although logically it is not seen
why it should, as he had nothing to do
with the management of the Vanderbilt
securities. It is said, however, that it
was last evening telegraphed all over the
world that Mr.. Vanderbilt had been shot
and this brought orders here from all
parts of the country to sell stocks at the
opening in the morning, the assumption
being that it was one of the influential
Vanderbilts whose life had been taken.
1t is known that VIM. H. Vanderbilt,
out Of consideration for his late brother,
refused to see his broker this morning to
order any business, and that he gave no
orders to buy any stocks, particularly
Lake Shore, which orders he has been in
the habit of giving for many days. These
two facts in the first dispatches OF last
evening. and the second withdrawal of
orders to New York, was known to the
street as peg orders and account for the
early freaks of the brokers and traders
in tho market.
