JAPANESE IMMIGRATION.
Mny he Restricted at it's source by
the Japanese Government
Itself--A Protest.

Washington. April 94.-lnformation
has reached Washington TO the effect
that the japanese government ITSELF
ard without waiting a request from
the United States, is about TO take
steps to restrict the emigration OF
japanese coolies to the United States,
II is asserted that the figures rell-
tive to this emigration have been mag
nified. and that as matter of fact
there are not more than about fifteen
or sixteen thousand Japanese within
the limits of the United States outside
of Hawaii. 1t is said that such emf
grafton as has lately occurred has re-
suited from the competition of the two
great japanese emigration societies.;
that the laborers have been practical
~ brought here under the delusion
that there were untold opportunities
for work at great wages
The japanese government is inter-
ested in protecting its people from the
hardships resulting from such imposl'
tiops, and that is the reason il intends
10 establish restrictions upon the out
ward flow. 1t is said, however, that
the government would never contem-
plate with equaninimity Legislation
nv the United States directed exclu-
siyely against japanese immigration
for though perfectly willing to abide
Lv the results of any legislation or
the subject of immigration that affects
al outside nations alike, discrmn1
ton against Japan would certainly
have most disastrous effects upon the
large and growing trade between th'
United States and Japan.
The position of the Japanese govern
