SERIOUS CHARGE
AGAINST HOLT, JR,

High Sheriff Brown early this week
received a letter from Sheriff Baldwin
of Maui which runs as follows:
cit is just now reported to me that
one ]. Holt, Jr., assaulted one
a Chinaman, and that the Chinaman
was injured about the head. This hap
pened this week, Thursday, at Wal
luku, and today the Chinaman died. I
am told that Holt was playing with
the Chinaman first. The man, SettiEg
mad, struck Holt with a stone, and
Holt then threw him on the sidewalk.
whereby the man received injuries on
the head. An inquest will be neld to-
day. Holt is under arrest
1t seems that the Chinaman was a
very old man, at least 40, who made n
living soliciting aims. The boys called
him names which he didn't like and one
day he threw some stones at his tor
mentors and John Holt, Jr., was hit
Holt is rather hot-tempered and SHOW
ed the man from the sidewalk. He fell
on his head, but did not seem seriously
hurt. The next day he swo-e out ii
warrant for Holt on the charge of SIS
sault and battery. When the ease came
up word was received that the China
man was too sick to appear. The next
day he died, whether from wounds in
ficted by the fall is not known. How
ever Holt was arrested and charged
with manslaughter in the first degree.
Friends put up the $1,000 bail neces-
sary and Holt was released and is now
come UP for trial during the Deem

EDUCATED CHINESE
EXCLUDED.

Although a Yale graduate, a man
of exceptional talents, fine family and
a possessor of a splendid education,
Teng zee Lee, cabin passenger in
the Doric, is returning to his home
in China after being refused a land
ing at San Francisco and not allowed
to enter the United States. When he
arrived at San Francisco some time
ago he was refused entrance because
he could not produce his Identification
certificate.
Teng Lee first visited the United
States in December 1892, and soon aft
erwards entered Yale, graduating from
that institution in 1899. After return
ing to the Orient he opened a school
at one of the Straits Settlements ports
and later went to Batavia, Java, where
he was at the head of an English
school.
Some time ago he decided to visit
the States again for the purpose OF
taking a postgraduate course in poll
teal economy at Columbia University
lie uI0 llOl AhNC MS NO 1870
identification certificate, he claims that
the American Consul at Batavia as
sured him that his Yale diploma and
his photograph would be sufficient
evidence of his right to enter the
country. But when he arrived at San
Francisco he was held up by the i'm
migration authorities, who claimed
that in the absence of his original GER
tificate he would not be allowed to
land. He was kept aboard the steam
er ten days while his attorney and
some of his former friends did all in
their power to release him from his
predicament, but the immigration au-
thorities in the end decided against
him and there was nothing else to do
but to return to the Orient.
Teng Lee says that he feels no bit
terness against the American people
as a whole, but does not see how 1t is
that while the very lowest classes OF
negroes and foreigners are admitted to
our country, an educated Chnese
student who graduates at one of our
greatest universities is refused a land
ing. His detention on board the steam
err at San Francisco was not at all
pleasant but it was better he says
than the treatment given to some OF
the other Chinese students who were
also being detained. He expects now
to return to China and take position
in one of the departments of the Nang
Yung University situated in Shang-
hal.
He further intends on returning
home to write an article for some Am
erican journal showing the injustices
of the present immigration laws, hop
ing thereby to help -ameliorate the con-
ditions of the present exclusion laws
which keep his countrymen from seek
ing entrance to the United States. He
hopes to be able to return to America
some time next year.
