enthusiastic meeting closed last night at

laborers called together to devise some
means of ridding the country of Chinese.

when they return home, to call mass meet
ings and notify all Chinese that they must
leave by November 1st. The last resolu
ton is to the effect that the white people
will hold themselves not responsible Tor
any act of violence which may arise from
the noncompliance of the Chinese with
these resolutions.
AT SEATTLE.

have been all discharged at the coal mines
in this vicinity, many mills also replacing
