~YELLow PERIL" is THREATENING
Patterson Fears an Eruption of All Sin
Into the Country.

Washington. April o. Patterson
addressed the senate on the denuncia-
ton of the Chinese exclusion treaty
Of 1894 by the Chinese government
He declared that unless additional
legislation is had before congress adj
journs every barrier against Chinese
immigration that has been built will
be removed on the 9TH of December
next, and the ports Of the country
thrown open to the unrestricted COM
ing Of the Chinese hordes, whose in
vas.on of the United States was ar.
rested twenty-five years ago."
He said that the treaty of 1894 was
the only treaty that absolutely pro-
hibited the coming of the Chinese to
this country He, admitted that the
treaty of 1880 provided for Chinese ex-
clusion, but called attention to the fact
that under that agreement the United
States could only suspend. regulate
and limit Chinese immigration. Quot
ing further from the language Of that
treaty. he said: 1T is by this treaty
that all existing legislation must lie
measured, and whenever its provisions
are found to be inconsistent with the
treaty's provision that legislation is
nullity.''
In the course of Patterson's speech
Mitchell. Cullom and Spooner ques-
toned him as to whether the treaty
Of 1894 had not had the effect Of
entirely superseding and repeating the
treaty of 1880, but Patterson contend-
ed that such was not the case. Spooner
made the point that IL the treaty Of
1894 had the effect of repeating the
treaty of 1880 the later treaty must
have had the effect Of superseding the
treaty Of 1868. Patterson. however, did
not yield the pcint.
Spooner suggested that the treaty
between the United States and China
would have the effect of holding in
force the other treaties existing at the
time including the treaty Of 1894, but
Patterson did not accept this construc-
ton. He contended that the only safe
method was to make explicit declara-
ton i'm the form of legal enactment,
as he predicted that unless this course
was pusued serious agitation would

Mayfiower during the Spanish war at
length. He then adds: 1.-The only
use of the vessel made by the presi-
dent or by his direction has been since
the beginning of her present commits
sion. June %. 1902. During these twen-
ty-one months she has crused o.

fetal duties. The total time spent on
presidents family or guests has been
one week. and the distance travelled
while they have been aboard has been
40 miles. All expenditures of g Try

Since she last went into commission
there has been absolutely no change in
her interior fittings" that had the least
connection with the presidents use of
