San Francisco, July 81.-The Chi
nese boycott on American goods, many
times Threatened and just as often de-
MED, is now reality. Louis Getz,
president of Getz Bros. & Co., one Of
the big importing and exporting firms
of this city, has received q cable from
Shanghai which reads as follows:
s'Cancel all orders. Boycott Of Amer
lean trade effective among Chinese
merchants. ALI business entirely sus-
pended.
This cable came from r. 81. Van
SAINT, the manager of the Getz branch
house in Shanghai, and it means that
none Of the goods which the firm is
now preparing for shipment to China
will be sent. IL also means q tremen-
dous loss, for Getz Bros. & Co. must
cancel orders to the value of many
thousands of dollars.
Great r1eefina Called.
As result of the cablegram Louis
Getz is making arrangements for a
meeting of commercial bodies Of this
city. Mr.. Getz is trying to have Vic
tor Metcaf, secretary Of the depart
ment of commerce and labor, attend
the meeting, in order that he may learn
at first hand what the situation is and
how the merchants of this city are go.
ing to meet it. The gathering is sure
to bear an important relation to the fu-
ture of the Chinese exclusion law.
pekin inspires Boycott.
''The order sent out by the chamber
of commerce and the mercantile guilds
all over China, calling for q boycott,
was inspired by Peking.' said Mr..
Getz. "It orders all the people Of the
empire to boycott American schools,
business products and ships, unless the
exclusion treaty guarantees equitable
treatment to. travellers. students and
merchants entering the United States.
That is about the way it reads, and II
was to take effect after August. Ite
action as far as we are concerned has
been anticipated.
II am not in favor Of bringing
coolies to this country, but certainly
think that the merchants, travellers
and students coming here from China
should receive the Same treatment
which American merchants, travellers
and students demand when they go to
China or to France or England, or to
any other county,"
Just what course will be proposed at
the meeting Of the commercial bodies
has not yet been outlined.
