eSe coming to this port and without
their documents in the form that will
permit a landing under the laws OF
the United States, will be held on the
ships and must be carried on to San
Francisco and back to China This
means, in effect, that the first case of
taking the Chinese into quarantine to
await return ship was not a prece-
dent.
Speaking of the positive refusal to
permit the Chinese Consul or the Vice
Consuls communication with the Chi
nese on the ships, Mr.. McStocker made
statement that is entirely clear. The
Collector General and the Inspector
from the Treasury Department at
Washington came to a conclusion in
the matter and decided to enforce their
decision. This was simply that the
persons whose cases We're pending or
under investigation should not be per-
mitted TO have any communication
whatever with people ashore. This is
settled and final unless otherwise ord
cred sbX the courts. Inspector Brown
and Collector General McStocker find
that their instructions have no word
OF Chinese natives of this country
They use the discretion that can be as
sumed by officials, or that must be at
times and admit these men. 1t is
about the same, or precisely the same
with local merchants who have been
visiting in China. With travellers the
case is that they must have in ship
shape the documents required by the
laws of the United States to be issued
them by their own Government. Lab
orers cannot come in at ALL As the
Collector General cannot, from their
standpoint, allow officials Or private
citizens to see the Chinese whose cases
are in question, and as the Chinese
cannot be separated on the ships, the
arbitrary or hard and fast rule of per
mitting no exchange of conversation or
advice at all is adopted.
The Collector General, in common
with all the officials of the Govern
ment, and with the Inspector, Mr..
Brown, is deeply interested in the test
case that is to come before the Su-
preme Court on Monday. The plain
tiffs are some Of the Chinese who came
by the City OF Peking. 1t is presumed
that the settlement of their case will
dispose of the case of the men who
arrived by the Gaelic and employed

Japanese.


A Japanese who arrived in Honolulu
from his native land about a year ago
killed himself in brutal stlye yester-
day afternoon. This was in the Jap

into his throat with kitchen knife of
good size. He then crawIed under the
main house. In doing this he was no.
tlced The Japanese about the place
did nothing but shout. Police atten-
ton was attracted and a couple of ma
tive Hawaiian officers brought the JAP
anese from beneath the building The
man had at once lost SO much blood
that he was wsakned, but in his dying
condition he resisted interference with
his plan for departure from the earth
and even cursed in broken English
those who were attempting to save his
life. The form was carried to the pri-
yate hospital of one of the Japanese
doctors, but it was too late for a sur
geon to do any effective work The
man was stone dead ten minutes after
he had plunged the knife into himself.
He had for some time been considered
by the Japanese to be of unSound
mind. but was always able to earn
wages and was generally in funds The
Japanese spectators. and to some ex-
tent the policemen were much impress
ed-almost terrified, by the shocking
appearance OF the man after lie had
been taken from his hiding place.
