LAW AND ORDER MUST PREVAIL

Washington. July 15.-The govern ment has taken note of the efforts made in some quarters to stir up az itation against peacesble Chinese in the United States. It feels impelfltlVeiy necessary to use the entire resou} 'ces of the government to suppress any move ment that would jeopardIze theil sale ty. Anything like q massacre of Chln- ese in the United States would wreck the whole cause of the United States government in final settlement or the Chinese trouble. There fore. steps nave been taken already to hs:ve the authorl- ties in localities where there may be danger of anti-Chinese outbreaks, pre- pare for the promptest aTid most stern repressive measures at the first s!'mp- tom of trouble and it may be stated that there will be no halting in the use of federal troops for such purposes II they are called for by state officials.
