The Mengsifans Propose 10 Organize
Protective Associations In New York.

NEW YORK. August 13.-CLinatovn
has been discussing, with various opin-
ions. during the last week, the organiza-
ton of Chinese protective associations
among tie New York Cinnamon. All
Yung Wing Chin, the Consul. who u
directing the project, Is assailed II most
caustic Chinese by those unfavorabie TO
it. ''rhere are already three local asso-
Citations of the kind-Ha Ka Sing, the

pressed himself intellieently, ..sonant
the Consul imagined himself still in
China, ana DESTROYS, as the Enperor's
representative, Of welding arbitrary
power 50 far as he could. Many of the
ignorant Chinese would believe that be
had this right, and that he could levy
taxes on them after the custom at home.
Said this man:
There were a number OF WEALTHY
Cinnamon ia New York know four
in Mott street, who represent 10000,
and one Of them has not less than $15.-
600. Il is all in rea. estate. The consul
knows what money there 10 here. One
Of these wealthy Ckinsmen goes 10
China every year or two, but always
keeps his Investments here, and the
laundrymsn are employed at 81 day
and board, and will not york for less.
Some Of them. know, often make IS
day. Now, if the consul gets these in
his association. and makes them pay IS
each, or il their means permit, AZ high
as 800, then be can levy on them as he
pleases when he wants money"
The Chinese consul rents the house ct
No. 50 Clinton place. It's interior is
fitted I'D after the Chinese fashion, with
Chinese k.etYres on the walls. The

after what may be considered the latest
