LETTERS FROM
THE PEOPLE
sapsrIntsndsnt Hoff RspIies

TO the Editor OF The Evening Journal.
In response TO your editorial comment
upon Chief Justice Lore's treat
ment Of what you term Street
Car Toughs" desire to state that
the Chester Traction Company and The
wilmington City Railway Company are
deeply sensible OF its obligation TO the
Chief Justice for his prompt and deter
mined action
As 20 your suggestion that the railway
companies. by causing a few arrests TO be
made. could break up the nuisance" and
that it's worth trying anyway my
answer is. that we nave frequently fol-
lowed this course but with varying sue
cess.
During brief space Of time past. three
distinct eases have been dismissed for
want Of sufficient evidence" when positive
facts have been sworn TO. once with two
men on "A car at Rising sun. the next time
when boys throw stones az a car on West
Fourth street, thereby badly iniuring the
motorman. and third only last week "a
man WHO was arrested at Twenty-hrst
and Market streets, for threatening to
thrash our men for trying to make him
behave himself when women and children
we're Passengers. This man was very abus-
i've. pulled on his coat and collision
with our motorman was only avcrted by
the presence Of an officer. who took the
man TO city Hail, but az his hearing" he
was discharged for the usual reason. and
the crew practically censured as being
"too fresh"
could mention several similar cases.
yet our Efforts in this line are only taken
TO protect our passengers and. wherever
possible, we propose continuing this
course whether conviction is secured or
not.
We are thankful that we have secured
several convictions. yet the prevailing
Tad that street Railway Companies
have no rights worthy OF respect. even
when tryins 60 protect iis patrons. the
public - very hard % 0qgnieracf,
Respectfully yours

China EesIs the Rouoott.

From the ST. Louis-Globe Democrat.
simultaneously with ex-Minister
Wu's denial that he inspired the
Chinese boycott against American
goods comes the report that some or
the boycotters are trying 90 let 60 1t
is said that some Of the merchants and
artisans who We're loud Ia their de-
mands few weeks ago that American
goods should be shut ont are anxious
now TO end the in,erdict. The students
are blamed AZ present FOR keeping up
the fight against America.
Mr.. WI says he had no hand In in
citing the boycott, and also says he de-
plores II. and Is using his influence to
end 1t. While he sees the reason why
United States should shut out the
coolies however, he urges US to frame
new treaty with China which would
prevent the outnages which have
recently been perpetrated onthe exempt
class OF Chinamen at our ports. This
is something that most Americans Will
be willing TO accept The acts of our
immigration ofncials I'm barring out
Chinese who were never intended to be
excluded under any law ever placed
on our statute books have been con-
denned by most OF the prominent
newspapers of the country. Moreover.
they have been condemned by the
President. and he has ordered their
discontinuance. 81
Probably the chief reason why some
OF the original boycotters now want 10
let UP in their work Is that the Chinese
are compelled to pay more for their
goods than they did before American
merchandise was shut out. The Ameri-
cans had opened a large trade with
China. II was profitable to the Chi
nese as well as TO the Americans. The
goods which the Chinese got from the
United States were cheaper. when
quality as well as price was
considered. than were the competing
articles from England, Germany and
he other European countries. with
he American importation closed the
Chinese are compelled to pay higher |
prices for Inferior European articles. /
rhis Is what is taking place This. too. |
makes IL evident that the boycott's /
lays are numbered. Except among a /
'ery small portion Of the Chinese. sent |
ment counts Tor nothing. The saving |
y a cent or two on a dollars worth |
