CHINE TREATY
EXCLUSION ACT TO BE CHANGED
IN SECRET SESSION.
The Present Exclusion aw is to be Superseded
by a New Treaty to be Agreed Upon by
the Secretary of State and the Chinese
Minister.

An attempt is on foot to take away
from the laboring men of this country
the safeguards thrown around them by
the congress to protect them against
Chinese competition, and to substitute
for the law a treaty to be agreed upon
by the secretary OF state and the Chinese
minister, and be sent by the president
to the senate for its ratification in secret
session behind closed doors.
The state department tells it's own
story in semi-official statements fur.

"CHINESE EXCLUSION.
Foundations for a New Treaty Now
Being Laid.
Secretary Hay and Sir Chentung
Liang Cheng have at last begun to lay
the foundation for new Chinese exclu-
sion treaty, and it is expected that tire
convention will be ready for submls.
to the senate at the approaching session
in December next. The treaty will, it is
understood, replace all existing law on
the subject, and under ordinary condi-
tons that fact might be expected 10

"However, it is believed that dis
closure Of the purpose OF the new treaty
will reconcile the house to the adoption
of the method proposed to effect the ex-
clusion OF undesirable Chinese, and will
assure the approval of the treaty by the
senate. 1t is the intention to continue
in full force in the treaty the principle
Of the exclusion OF Chinese coolies, and
the Chinese government itself is perfect
ly wiling that that should be done. But
the treaty will contain provisions regard
ed as much needed and earnestly sought
for by the Chinese government for many
years, looking to more considerate,
liberal and kindly treatment of the
higher class of Chinese seeking to enter
our ports. There have been constant
complaints of indignities heaped upon
Chinese merchants and scholars and
even high.class officials by the harsh
application of the existing exclusion
immigration officials have uniformly
answered criticisms on that point by the
declaration that they were simply en-.
forcing the law which it is now the pur-
pose to qualify by the new convention. I"

bins into the holds of the waiting vessels tied
on each side of the trestle. An ore steamer

weeks prior to the general election.
No one can be surprised ct the
methods adopted in this campaign
by the Governor aud his admiuistra-
tion. The compulsory tax on Of
