Maxwell. They have proselyted to q

Among them were the two comely

The Unwelcome Chinese.

WASHINGTON, May 14.-The Secretary
Of the Treasury to-day transmitted to
the Senate report from Datus +. Coon,
Chinese Inspector, at Sau Diego, Cali
ioraia, dated April q, with respect to
evasians OF the Chinese Exclusion Act.
MIR. Coon says that 1t 10 true that the
Chinese are coming into the United
States, dtspite the efiorts OF the Gus
tom Department to keep them out.
Many reports OF Chinese entering the
country during the month OF March, he
says, were found not to be well founded; /;
but on April information was received
which led to arrests, and these arrests
have had . saiutary etf ct by way OF
checking the traffic OF smuggling Chinese
through ths lines. Twenty-six China
mon are in custody, charged with unlaw.
fully entering The United States, and
the Portuguese captain oi the little sloop
Benicia Bay, Is In Jail awaiting trial for
having brought ten Chlnamen iuto the
United States. The captain male q CON-
iestion, giving the names Of his Chinese
employers, one OF whom has been ar
rested and the other 10 being pursued.
During the month Mr.. Coon filed thirty
complaints in the United States Commis.
sioner's Court for violations vi the Scott
Exclusion Act.
An examination he made of the State
line, Mr.. Coon says, shows that the op
portunities for crossing the Mexican
border Into California are many, and with
the force at the command Of the depart
mcnt, It will be impossible to prevent sl
OF them from entering this country.
Mr.. Coon suggests treaty negotiation
| with the British Government and Mexico
| looking to the exclusionof the Chinese ant
I says Chinese exclusion legislation woul,
then be very simple. Without such treatie
tho exclusion OF Chinese by peaceful
means is an undertaking of great magui
