The Chinese Bill Vetoed.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April lima adi-
ately after the reception of the Presidents
message vetoing the anti-Chnese bill, at
LIS o'clock, the President pro tenn suspend
ed the operation of business to lay the
communication before the Senate and
directed it to be read. The vital objection
of the President is to the twenty y2..rS'
suspension of immigration, which he con-
strues us virtually prohibitory, and ts-erc-
fore violative OF the spirit, if net of
the letter. of the negotiations upon which
the treaty WAS based. and as !; breach of NIL
tiona faith. The message calls attentio@. to
the propositions made by the I. 5. Cou:.iis-
sioners on this point, the counter PROPOSE
tons OH the part Of China. to show that the
understanding of the latter country in the
agreement, which was ultimately E.aie,
was that the immigration would be
limited or restricted to Il reasonable period,
In discussing the meaning of the word la
borelS' ..;ls used in the treaty. the FRESH
dent comedies that includes artisan" Or
skilled laborcrs. In regard to the term of
suspension he says: The examination
which have made of the treaty and Of the
declarations which its negotiations have left
Oh record of the meaning of its language.
leaves no doubt on my mind that neither
contcstiug party in concluding the treaty OF
1880. contemplated the passage of an act
prohibiting immigration for 20 years, which
Is nearly Il generation. and thought that
such Il period would he n reasonable sl:si,cll-
sion or limitation; or intended To- change
the provisions of the Buringamc treaty to
to that effect regard this provision of the
act as Il breach OF our National flti1 and
being unable to bring myself in harmony
| with the views Of Congress upon this vital
point, the honor Of the country cons, .ails
me to return the act with this objection ia
Is passage
The President then points out oliie2 ii;,-
lures of the act which, in his opinion, can be
modified to advantage The system Of per-
sonal registration and passports is s,,cciti-
! cally mentioned as undcmorrltc and I:ostilc
to our institutions The message refers to
the alleged benefits To its industries derived
by the Pacific slope from the presence of the
Chinese before: expresses approximations
an injurious effect upon American commerce
with China if legislation of the character OF
that proposed unless carefully guarded, and
without naming any specific period Of s,,s-
| pension suggests that the length of tle term
should be experimental.
! The message and BILL on motion Mr.
Farley. were temporarily laid upca The
