The principal ports are Havana
and New York. The other cities are
merely forwarding stations. The
other features which make this
scheme possible are the free masonry
of Chinese kinship, money and the
desire to circumvent the exclusion
law.
The cases of students and actors
who enter the country for the first
time are most interesting. These
all come across the continent from
the Pacific coast to Now Orleans in
bond and go Themes to Havana.
They undoubtedly receive instruc
tions on the way, but the finishing
touches to their education are put
on at Havana, where they remain
sometimes for months, sometimes
longer. In Havana they almost in
variably are domiciled with Yung
Sing, and when they reach New
York they are met 10y Yung Luck,
his cousin, or Lee Foy, the latter's
partner. These three have been
openly denounced by the Chinese
inspector at this port as smugglers
The examination Of applicants for
admission takes place in the main
cabins of the Ward line of steamers.
The Chinese, to prove that they are
not laborers, have permitted their
finger nails to grow from the day on
which they left their own country.
They are generally asked to de-
scribe the route by which they came
from China. This is now readily
answered, but a few weeks ago it
was difficult question. They have
evidently been enlightened in the
meantime. When asked why they
have taken such circuitous route
to reach New York they claim either
to have had business at Havana or to
have stopped to see brother, cousin
or friend.
Nothing can transcend their calm
ness while answering these ques-
tions, and no amount of cross-ex-
animation can shake their testi-
mony.
Within six weeks upward of thirty
students have arrived here. Twenty
five have disappeared or are found
working in Chinese restaurants or
laundries. In the same time over
twenty actors have reached New
York, and since the first of the year
about seventy-fve. There is but
one Chinese theatre in the city.
Some actors appear on the stage for
a day or two in the capacity of
"populace," or Soldiers" or among
"the retinue of mandarin"
Where this smuggling can end no
one can tell. The smugglers, it is
said, guarantee the safe delivery of
every Chinese here for from 500 to
$3.50. At present the latter is the
figure. for the investigation is very
rigid. The system of communica,
ton kept up between New York and
Havana is perfect, and if an unusual
question is put to applicants of to-
day which they caunot answer, III
two weeks time every incoming Chi,
nese can meet it calmly and smiling
ly. After reaching this country the
Celestials work out the amount OF
money advanced by the smugglers
here, and it is presumed the latter
add good sized sum to the amount
by way of profit.

WAYS OF THE ASToRS.
Peculiar Rules Laid Down for Their
Tenants.

Peculiar Rules Laid Down for Their
Tenants.
Some of the rules by which the
tenants of the Astors are bound are
curious. For instance, although
they will make almost any repairs
that a tenant suggests before the
lease is signed, even though the re-
pairs may cost more than the rental,
they will not spend a cent on the
property during the existence of the
lease. A lady who rented a house
in Forty-fifth street from the Astors
was told that she could have any re-
pairs or alterations she wished, but
no chandeliers. She had the house
decorated from top to bottom and
many expensive repairs made, and
there was not remonstrance, but
she had to supply all the chande-
Tiers, at cost of $1,000, herself. OF
course, they remain her property,
and she can take them away when
she moves.
A curious incident is related by
another tenant in Forty-fourth
street. She leased house at a rem
tai of $1,000 for one year. When
she came to renew the lease for an
other year she was informed that
the rent would be only $500. She
was told by somebody who pretend
ed to know that the reduction was
due to deterioration in the value
of the property, and that the Astors
did not want more than certain in
terest on it. That, however, was not
true, as was learned upon inquiry at
the Office of the Aston estates. The
clerks there said that the reduction
was due simply to the fact that dur
ing the first year they had charged
a percentage for repairs and changes.
AS none was required the second
year the percentage was taken off.
Nevertheless, it remains the fact that
the reduction was voluntary, and to
the tenant unexpectedly. Y. San.
