within the next two weeks a statement
showing the amount Of imported goods
handled at a reduced rate and the
amount OF money involved. This state

FRAUD Turks IN PLAN
OF CHINESE CARRIER
Officials Scent Attack on

MEXICO THE CHOSEN BASE
Celestial Company Projects Line From
H0ngkOng to Sister Republic
and California.

Schemes Of typicaIIy Celestial devious
ness are believed by Treasury officials
to be hidden in the move OF the
China Commercial Steamship Com
pany to establish a line OF steam
ships between FiOngEOng. Mexican ports
and San Francisco The company's OBJ
ject is thought to be the importation
OF Chinese By way OF Mexico Com
missioner General of immigration Sar-
gent has set watch upon the pro
m0ters Of the plan.
The president Of the company, Eng
Eok Fong, the vice president. Leung
Kan Wing, and the counsel Lyman T.
MOwUy, Of san Francisco, were here last
week and went TO the City Of meSiCO
TO arrange for entering steamers at
MaDzaHiiIo and 1Iazatlap- While here
Mr.. Mowry called on Commissioner Gen
eral Sargent and sought 20 remove the
suspicion that the object Of the new
company IS to dump Chinese coolies on
The Mexican coast al convenient points
whence they can make their way sur
reptitiously into the United States.
It was Eng HoK Fong who acted as
agent Of the trans-Pacifc steamers at
Hongkong. gathering coolies in large
numbers for passage to America Now he
turns up 6 president Of the new line in
Mexico. He is 4 shrevd highly educa-
I'D Chinamar. with great business abil-
ity. When he acted as Forwarding agent
Of the trans Pacific steamers he worked
IN harmony with a cousin who con
ducts q big mercantile business at Quay
mas, Mexico. Until the Chinese inspec-
tor at San Francisco uneaTthed the
transit frauds. many Of the coolies
were sent by Eng Hok Fong direct to his
cousin at Guaymas
Last year It was discovered that trans
Pacific steamship lines were evading the
Chinese exclusion laws BY bringing
large numbers Of coolies TO san Fran
cisco ostensibIy in transit to Mexico
and Central America, thus obtaining
their transfer 20 southbound coastwise
steamers, from which they disembarked
at Guaymas OF MazatIan and made their
way thence through N0gaIes into the
United States.
It is believed at the Treasury. not
WiIhstandlng the assurances given by the
China Commercial Company's counsel.
that the principal object of the new lire
Is 70 carry coolies TO Mexico direct.
where they viii be free TO make their
way. across the 200 miles OF pract.-
caIly unpatroiIed border into THIS coun-
try. Chinese are as free to enter Next

" Fong says the coolies are needed
on Salina Cruz plantations.
We cant prevent the Chinese from

dumping coolies into Mexico" said As

Tor. But we can and will watch tie

Inadvertently drift into the United
