EXCLUSION TREATY IS
DENOUNCED BY CHINA
Another Agreement Covering the
Shutting Out of Cheap Labor
Must Be Negotiated.

WASHINGTON. March 2S.-The State De-
partment has received formal notice from
the Chinese government denouncing the
Chinese exclusion treaty, this conven-
ton will expire Dec. q next, unless re-
placed by another treaty by that date. In
der its terms six months before the expira-
ton of period of ten years. from Dec. q.
1894, if either power be dissatisfied with
the treaty, IL Is required to denounce it.
This is the action which China has taken in
spite of the strongest efforts to the con-
trary on the part of the State Department
Had the notice not been served, the treaty
would have continued in force for another
term of ten years from Dec. -, 1904.
The department pointed out TO the Picking
authorities, through Mr.. Conger, that it
was very probable that so far from better
ing the conditions relating TO the admis-
sion of Chinese into the United States. any
new treaty would fail of approval by the
Senate. The Chinese would thus be exposed
in the absence of the sheltering treaty TO the
full rigor of the Geary and Heinz law and
the exclusion would be much more complete
than at present However, the treaty hav-
ing been denounced. there is nothing for it
now but to proceed with the formulation of
a new treaty, which already has been mi
tiated in a way. although with little hope of
sena torial approval.
