The Passage of The Chinese Bill
thrOuk h III Q haUse

WASHINGTCE, March 90 The Anti
Chinese bill passed the House OF Repre-
sentatives this at eri Don in the same
The vote was l67 to 6j. The negative
votes, except those of Messrs. Bragg,
Hardenbergh, Hooker and Morse, were
cast by Republicans. The six New Eng
land States cast only three votes for
the bill-those of Mpssrs. Murch and
Ladd, of Maine, and Phelps, ofCOnnec
ticut. The New York members who
voted for the bill were Messrs. Belmont,
Bliss, Cox, Dungro, Flower, Hardy, A.
S. Hewitt, Hiscock, Hutchins McCook,
w. E. Robinson, j. Hyatt Smith, Van
Voorhis and Walter A. Wood, and those
who voted against it were Messrs. Camp,
D wight, Hammond, Jacob, Kstcham,
Parker, Richardson and Skinner.
Mr., kasson's amendment to RED Ge
the period during which Chinese imm.
grafton shall be suspended from 20 wears
to ten was defeated oy vote of 100 %
131- rnly two Democrats voting in the
the atfirmatiye-and Mr.. Butterworth' =
amendment fixing the period of sus-
pension at fifteen years was rejected
Oh division by a vote of 81 to 80.
This result was something Of a sur
prise to members who hal made a
rather careful canvass of the Hons
and had reached the Inclusion that
at least twenty or twenty five ID, mo-
Gratis would vote to reduce the periU i.
This expectation was dis ,ppo nted
although az least a score of Democrats
have said privately within the last day
or two that they favored q ten-year Or
fifteen year suspension; but, as one of
them frankly said to-day, 81 am oppos-
ed to the whole theory of the bill, and
would like to vote against it, hut
must keep solid with my Consti' uents,
and am afraid to vote for any amend
ment." This was the feeling, doubtless,
of many others-both Democrats anu
RepubliCans-who voted for the bill
virtually under duress.
Had the bill been modified In the
particular mentioned it would haye
bsen passed by much larger majority
lor many memb' rs who were willing
TO support any reasonable measure
which could be defended as within the
spirit of the treaty with China regard.
ed the Senate bill a, a violation of the
spirit If not the letter of the treaty and
as designed to effect prohibition in.
stead Of suspension of immigration
a. contemplated by the treaty and
could not therefore vote for it. The
main reason urged by the friends of the
measure why it should not be amended
was that if it should be sent back to
the Senate and again thrown open to
discussion the probable result would be
its entire failure at this session, and
this no doubt influenced the decision Of
many who really desired to see the bill
amended
