May Amect Commercial, Treaties.
WASHINGTON. Jan. Is.-The Chinese Gov
ernment, through Minister WI Ting-fang
IL making a determined diplomatic fight
against the reenactment Of the Geary
Exclusion law. and there Is reason to be-
lieve that II has made certain suggestions
to the State Department which have brought
discomfort to the minds Of the delegation
sent here from California TO work up senti-
ment In favor Of stringent new measure
against Chinese immigration. When the
delegation called on Secretary Hay last
Friday. 1t learned something that was not
pleasant, but the delegates were sworn TO
secrecy and wont tell what 1t was that made
them unhappy. One thing that they we're
told was that an international aspect had
dev eloped with regard to the proposed
resnactment of the Exclusion law, which
required serious consideration. The dele
CATION was told also that the Department
expected definite developments within
week or ten days.
Careful inquiry to-day in official quarters
resulted in bringing out that China has
intimated that the reenactment OF the
Exclusion law would be regarded as an
affront which would require retaliation,
and il IL understood that the Imperial
authorities at Pekin contemplate declining
TO grant most favored nation treatment
TO the United States in the commercial
treaties which are to be negotiated by
China with this country. The rapid de-
velopment of American trade in China
has given reason to this Government to hope
that, with liberal concessions in the new
commercial treaties. the United States
will lead the rest Of the world in dealing
with the Chinese. California is vitally
Interested in the Chinese market, and the
question of curtailing its lucrative deal
ings with the Orient X naturally regarded
with concern by tho delegation which is
working for a new Exclusion law. 1t is the
expectation of officials here that many
existing trade barriers will be destroyed
by the proposed new treaties, thus en-
abling American manufacturers and ship
pers to send their goods into the interior OF
the country. where d great market awaits
them. Should other nations, however,
secure tariff advantages which America
will not possess there will, of course. be a
considerable curtailmcnt Of trade with
this country.
The State Department Is cndeavoring
90 surmount the difficulty, but with what
hope of success II not disclosed. Ii Is be-
lieved among men Interested In the matter
that China will be willing To compromise
on the basis of certain notifications in the
Exclusion law
