THE PRESIDENT AND THE CHINESE
This Government is Bound to Devise
Measures for Their Protection.

WAsHINGroN, March 2.-The president
in message condemuatory of the Chinese
outrages at Rock Springs quotes from the
treaty Of 1850 with China, and says ''in the
case of i'll treatment of the Chinese this
government is bound to exert all its
power to devise measures for their pro
lection by securing to them the rights to
which they, equally, with any and all
other foreigners, are entitled. The pres
ident however, denies the legality of the
claim of the Chinese minister that Chinese
subjects who were victims at Rock
Springs, should beindemnitied, but leaves
the question of bounty to the senators.
