& New York, Dec. o.--After day
spent in discussing Asiatic immigra-
ton, the National Civic Federation
conference ON immigration, which has
been in session here since Wednesday,
finally adjourned. There was alively
debate on the subject of Chinese inmi-
grafton. Resolutions on the subject
as they came fom the committee on
resolutions were regarded BY many of
the delegates as nullifying the present
Chinese exclusion act. Samuel Comp
:ers, president OF the American Fedora
ton of Labor, led the fight for rnodi-
fed expression and after nearly every
delegate TO the conference had been
heard, the following substitute, was pre-
sentsd and adopted unanimously: +

les should be so framed and admins
tered as to carefully except Chinese
students, business men and profes-
sional men OF all kinds, not only ner-
chants but bankers, doctors, rnanu-
Sfaeturers, professors and travellers
from enforcement OF the exclusion
law
In the course OF the day United
States Senator William A. Clark, Of
Montana, speaking on Asiatic inIrni-
grafton, said:
Experience Of forty years on the
Pacific coast and in the state Of Mon
.tana and as an employer OF great
number OF men, has enabled me to
form an opinion as to the desirability
OF the admission Of Chinese and have
arrived at this conclusion: / believe
that voice the almost unanimous
sentiment 4 Of the people OF that state,
both employers and employed, and /
believe that sentiment is shared by
every other state, that we should not
allow what we call coolie labor to
come into this country unrestricted. /"
