The information against her was read
several times in argument on the de-

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 19.-The To-
cal custom house was advised to-day
by a private telegram from Washing
ton of an important decision constru-
ing the provisions of the latest Chin
ese exclusion Act.
The decision was from the Attorney
General of the United States, and af-
firms a recent ruling of Collector Jack
son subsequently sustained by the Sec
retary of the Treasury. Unusual inn
portance attaches to the decision, from
the fact that it was bitterly opposed
by the Chinese Minister and members
of the Chinese Embassy.
Some three weeks ago twenty five
Chinese sought a landing here under
certificates describing them as mer-
chants They We're denied a landing
by Collector Jackson, because of the
tnsuf1ciency of the certificates. 1t
was held by the Collector that under
Section of the Exclusion Act is was
necessary to show not only that the
applicants were merchants, but also
the character of their business and the
time and place where such business
had been followed.
The appeal to the Attorney General
was unauthorized by the exclusion law.
1t was allowed simply as a matter of
international comfy, and because in
