Relations Between the United States and
China.

John Russell Young, sx-United States
minister to China, who has arrived at San
Francisco from Yokohama, said regarding
the Chinese restriction act:
1t merely offends GhiEas pride. as the
government is opposed to the emigration
of it's subjects. The fact that America has
Disseminated Against China often has been
used as a foil when America seeks any adj
vantage in China or when a treaty OF re-
vision has been suggested. Chinese emigrate
from Hong Kong and English ports, not
from any Chinese city. The British Cover.
nor OF Hong Kong could enforce the United
States restriction treaty If he were required
TO do so by his government. The Chinese
government have done all in their power 70
prevent the immigration OF Chinese 70 the
United States, but there are no restrictions
to their going from Hong Kong. To com
pletely carry out the restriction act, tins
United States should negotiate a treaty
with England by which coolies from Hong
Kong would be prohibited from sailing to
this country.
