A PRoTnsr rSoM CHINA.
II May End in the Severance Of Diplo-
matte Relations.


WASHINGTON. March @. This country
is now threatened with severance Of
diplomatic relations with China. The
Chinese government has become indig-
nant at the antagonism which the United
States exhibits towards the Chinese and
the reporting Of the Geary bill by the
house committee on foreign affairs, and
has written long letter to Secretary
Blaine protesting against the absolute
exclusion Of Chinese from the United
States, claiming Tint ii Is Iii violation of
the treaty between the two countries.
and pointing ont that the United States
has no precedents In international AT
fairs for the course that she Is pursuing.
This letter. while couched In diplo-
matte language. Is very earnest and
indignant protest, and indicates n deter
mination ON the part Of China not y
longer remain passive IN this matter.
There is feeling in congress that the
time has come when this country must
either make the prohibition against the
coming Of Chinese IN this country gen.
eral and absolute, or else must throw
the doors wide open TO all Chinese. II Is
obvious that the latter viii not be done.
The expectation is that this congress
will 20 10 the farthest extreme Of Chi
nese restriction. and that all cur diplo-
matte relations with China will be ended.

no more than half dozen-certainly
not over dozen-are acquainted with

maintaining an apparently invioiable

is due to the direct request of the presi-
