Chinese Want the Right of
Suffrage.
GEARY ACT DOES NOT SUIT THEM
They Therefore want 1t RedeaIed-
Their Views Expressed in
Mass Meeting.

CHICAGO, Nov. 23.-American Chinese
and native born Chinese will appeal to
congress for the right of suffrage and ask
that body to repeal the Geary anti-Chi-
nese law passed in 1882. A public mass
meeting will be held at Central Music
hall next Saturday. and prominent Chi
nese from all over the country will ad-
dress the meeting.
They will declare that wrongs have
been inflicted upon them since they
have been refused the right of citizen
ship, and will ask the aid of the people
of the United States to help them in
their cause.
This, it is said, will be the first time
that the Chinese shall have openly de-
clared themselves. They have organized
the Chinese Rights Club of America.
Wong Chin Foo is president of the or
ganization.
In an interview he said:
"We want Illinois, the place that Lin
coin, Grant and Logan called their home,
to do for the Chinese what the North
did for the negroes.
"Why should we not have voice in
municipal and national affairs the same
as other foreigners? There are 80, 600
Chinese in this country desirous of be-
coming citizens.
"In 1892 an outrageous law was passed
by songress. By that law the rights and
liberties of nearly $50, 900 lawful and in
dustrions citizens were swept away. We
will now ask congress to restore to us
thesovereign rights we once enjoyed,
which are now held by every other race
who come here.
''Those who wish to become voters
have been living in this city from 10 to
40 years. Their financial and social in
terests are all here, and they have
learned to love America better than
they dId,the old country. They have
acquired American habits which have
rendered their residence in China almost
impossible. The situation has now come
to stage where we must ask for our
rights''
Following the meeting at Central Mu-
sic hall, meetings will be held all over
the United States.
The Chinese Equal Rights League oi
America is incorporated.
Among those who will address the
meeting next Saturday are Wong Chin
Fee, Wong Ock, of Massachusetts, Sam
Ping Lee, of New York, and Chin Loy,
of San Francisco.

history of the trade. being more than
1000, 900 bags. The price of green cof-
fee year ago was 10 cents and that of
roasted 1616 cents. The margin between
the two varities has therefore been re-
duced from 81 to 2sz CENTS. In other
words cut in two.
The price of roasted coffee in packages
as sold by the Arbuckles and the Wool
son Spice Company has fallen to cents

buckles is quoted as saying that this
price is below cost, and representative
of the Havemeyers, who control the
Wolson Spice Company, says there is a
profit in 9-cent coffee.

which prevented the rehabilitation of
the Turkish navy will be exercised on
Germany with equal success in the mat
ter of the occupancy of the Chinese ter
ritory.
Notwithstanding the efforts Of the
Chinese government to get Germany to
name date when she would withdraw
her forces, the German government has
taken no step in the matter, and the
fear is expressed in Eastern and Euro
pean diplomatic circles that her occu-
pancy, if not permanent now, is simply
preliminary to such an end.
A diplomat thoroughly conversant
with Eastern affairs made this state
ment in regard to the landing of German
forces:
sat the time of the landing the Chi
nese government had already taken
measures for the arrest of the murderers
of the German missionaries, and, in fact
instructions of this character had been
obeyed to such an extent that several of
the culprits had been placed under arr
rest. 1t was also intended to require

murders occurred to pay suitable in
demnity.
'These fact have been laid before the
German minister at Peking, who 1 may
say is of very excitable temperament,
and his failure to. accept the apology and
await the result of the efforts of the
Chinese government shows that Ger
many was simply awaiting a pretext to
occupy portion of the Celestial King
dom's territory.
Germany has always been anxious to
obtain territory in the far East. Her
citizens who have established them
selves in China have been especially
clamorous that the black, white and red
flag should wave over portion of that
country, and their government, seeing
an opportunity growing out of the muir
der of the two missionaries, promptly
| seized upon it -
