The time fixed in the bill--namely: twenty
years, is unreasonable, The language Of Art.
l., that "laborers" shall not be absolutely pro-
hibited from coming to the United States and
that suspension shall be reasonable" as well
rs the negotiations, indicate that brief period
migration of Chinese labOrers into the United
States for twenty years would, in my opinion,
be unreasonable, and q violation Of the mean
ing and intent of the treaty.
MEMORANDUM II.
The inclusion of skilled labor in the bill is
an addition to the words and intent OF the
treaty. 1t will operate with harshness upon q
sion to the United States under the terms OF
the treaty. The shoe merchants and cigar
merchants of China manufacture the goods
they sell at their places OF business, ana 70
shut out the skilled labor" they need would
practically shut them out as well, since it
business in this country. The iaundryman
who keeps his shop and has a small capital
with which to prosecute his trade cannot IN
any just sense, be included in the class OF
=" laborers, and the merchant-ta1lOr comes IN
the same category.
MEMORANDUM III.
The clauses of the bill relating to registration
ana passports are vexatOus discrimination
against Chinese residents and immigrants,
when Ar. II: provides explicitly that they shall
subjects of the most favored nation. The ex-
ecution OF these provisions of the bill will
cause irritation and, in case of loss of the pass
port or certificate of registration, Chinese resi-
dents enutled to remain may be forcibly ex-
pelled from the country.
MEMORANDUM ~.
If Che bill becomes law it will leave the inn
preston in China that it's Government strange

limit or suspend" The Chinese reply to this
can only be inferred from the fact that. in place
of the agreement as proposed by our Com
eong sh of m ts cese
ers, there was inserted in the treaty an
agreement that we might not do 1t. The re-
manning words regulate. limit and suspend
first appear in the American draft. When it
was submitted to the Chinese they said: I'VE
infer that of the phrases regulate, limit,
suspend, or prohibit the first is a general ex-
preston, referring to the theirs. We are en-
trely ready to negotiate with your Excellen-
cieS to the end that limitation either in point
OF time or numbers may be fixed upon the
emigration of Chinese laborers to the United
States" AT subsequent interview they said
that by limitation in numbers they meant for
example, that the United States having, as
they supposed, by record the number of immi-
Rrarions in each year, as well Us the total num-
Der of Chinese now here, no more should be
allowed to 60 in any one year in the future
than the greatest number which had gone in
any one year. in the past, or that the total
number should never be allowed to exceed
the number now there. As to the limitation
t. time. they meant, for example, that the
years, or every third year, or, for example,
that they should not be allowed to 20
for two, three. or five years. At a subse-
Chinese Commissioners have in their project
egplc tly recognized the right of the United
Sta .es to use some discretion, and have pro-
posed a limitation as to time and number.
THIS is the right to regulate limit. or suspend"
In one of the conferences the Chinese asked
the Americans whether they could give them
any idea of the laws which would be passed to
carry these powers into execution. The Ameri-
cans answered that this could hardly be done;
that the United States Government might
never Geem it necessary to exercise this
pow.r 1t would depend upon circum-
stances. If Chinese immigration concen-
trated in cities where it threatened the
public order or If it confined Itself to localities
wher,. # was an injury to the interests of the
American people, the Government of the
Unit d states would undoubtedly take steps to
prevent such accumulations of Chinese. If,

for cal loans on stocks at 40 per cent. per

that the purchasing power of growls is
not unlimited in that section.

and trainmen, cCnSigning the whole
business to bitterness and wrath eternal.
The conductor made every effort to

stimulated the volume of abuse until
