EXCLUSION BILL CHANGED.
Washington, March 22.-By an almost
unanimous vote the house committee on
foreign affairs have struck out of the
Nitchell-Kahn Chinese exclusion BILL
the para graph prohibiting ships flying
the American flag from employing Chi
nese sailors under $4,000 for each Of
Tense This provision has proved one OF
the chief sources. &C controversy over
the bill The senators and representa-
tives from the Pacific coast states re-
gard this provision as most important
The main argument leading to strik
ing out the provision was that Ameri-
can ships the Pacific compete with
English and Japanese lines, and that
the latter ships would indirectly receive
a great advantage in continuing the
employment of Chinese at $3.50 per
month, whereas the American ships
would have to pay about $50 per month
for white sailors.
Representative Kahn, of California.
has talked with Speaker Henderson as
to the exclusion bill when it reaches the
house, and it is understood that while
Mr.. Kahn considers the sailors clause
most important he will not insist upon
it to the extent of jeopardizing the en-
tire exclusion measure.

lie is anxiously waiting for it, and also
to find out what his choice of weapons
will be.
