A Celestial Hustled From Canada Int
the United Statss-Not Allowed to
Land-Linscring on the Niagara
Bridge.
NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y, April 17.-Three
Cinnamon, two of whom had attempted to
cross the frontier with Nun Lee, couple of
weeks ago, presented themselves for admis-
sion to Canada this morning, all having been
hustled over to this side by United States
customs officers. The two men belonging to
Nun Lees party were granted admission,
having Canadian customs certificates In their
possession. The other man not having the
necessary document, and only $40 to
pay the Canada tax of $50 was denied the
privilege given to his companions and was
sent back to the American side of the bridge,
but was stopped there and the gates of the
bridge were closed against him. The only
thing the Chinaman could do under the cir
cumstances was to remain on the bridge,
where he has since fingered and is likely to
linger for some time. Collector of Customs
Flynn communicated with the commissioner
of customs at Ottawa for instructions. The
commissioners reply was to have the China
man sent back whence he Game. Further COM
munioation-has been held and no doubt tho
matter will be brought to the attention OF
the Washington authorities. Meanwhile the
celestial remains on the bridge. He can
speak very little if any English and it was
with . great deal of trouble that 1t was
learned that his name was Lem Sing and
that no had been in Toronto for seven years.
The other two Cinnamon left for parts I'M.
known shortly after they were admitted.
