The Washington correspondent OF
the New Orleans Picayune says: 1.-The
fact is becoming o and more patent
that the Chinese problem is far from
being solved by the badly drawn
treaty negotiated by the Blaine Gar
field Administration. The California
press regard the practical operation Of
the laws upon the subject as nulliied
by Chinese perjury and the loose
opinions of courts and government
officials. In eight months the arrivals
of Chinese at San Francisco, to say
nothing Of those struggled across the
frontier, have been $3.50, and it is es-
timated that there will be 10000 in all
during the current year. In the mean
time the Chinese are being carried to
other States and Territories, and their
presence is multiplying the friction
already existing between capital and
labor"
