Sherman on the Chinese Bill

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.-During his
speech on the Chinese bill this after
noon Senator Sherman said he had in
formation now from undOubted sources
mot from the president or secretary of
state) that the probability was that the
Chinese government had hot refused to
ratify the treaty. He was informed
that the Chinese legation had no infor-
nation on the subject, and that the
president had none. When the bill
came over from the house he
said he had assumed rs mat
ter of course that the house
had passed it on information that
came from the executive. The senate
had no information about it. The
senate only knew that the house of
representatives had suddenly stopped
its business in order to pass this bill on
motion of a gentleman who was sup
posed to be in favor with the execu-
tive. Without such information
senators shouldn't rush wildly
like a flock of frightened partridges
with the passage of the bill. If it
should turn out as he believed it would,
that the Chinese government had not
rejected the treaty the hasty passage
of the bill would Oe unbecOming to the
American senate. He thought the
senate was bound by common courtesy
due between nations as between indi-
Viduals to await the action of the
Chinese government on the subject.
