Chinese Retaliation Denied - Pacific Coast
Patents Issued-Peusions Granted.
WAsHINGToN, March 1.-The correspon-
dent of New York paper sent from
here yesterday a sensational story that
there had been a consultation among
the Chinese diplomats and that it was
agreed between the Minister and his Gov
eminent that if the Geary or Stump Chinese
bill passed Congress the Chinese Govern
ment would adopt a retaliatory policy and
would expel all of the American mission
aries now in China. 1t was further stated
that the Chinese Legation had caused this
TO be made known TO our State Department.
1t turns out that there is absolutely no
truth in the story, whatever the Chinese
Government may decide to do in case either
of the exclusion bills pass Congress.
