President Roosevelt Intervenes In Be-
half Of Better Glasses Of China
men.
Washington. d. c., June 26.-By d.
rection of President Roosevelt action
has been taken by the administration
which not only will facilitate the land
ing in this country of Chinese of the
exempt classes, but also will eliminate
from the immigration Bureau such ad-
ministrative features as have been the
subject of criticism by Chinese. 1t Is
the declared intention of the President
to see that Chinese merchants, travel
ers, students and others Of the exempt
classes shall have the same courtesy
shown them by officers of the Immi-
grafton Bureau as is accorded to citi-
zens of the most favored nations.
Representations have been made to
the President that In view of alleged
harsh treatment accorded to many
Chinese seeking landing in the
United States, the commercial guilds
OF China have determined to institute
a boycott on American manufacturers.
The representations, backed by the au.
thority of the American Asiatic So
ciety and commercial bodies through
out the country, induced the President
to make an investigation OF the situa-
tion with a view to remedying the
evils complained of II they were
found to exist. The subject was dis
cussed thoroughly with Secretary Met.
calf of the Department of Commerce
and Labor, who has supervision OF the
immigration Bureau.
AS a result of the inquiry, orders
have been issued to the diplomatic
and consular representatives of the
United States in China by the Presi.
dent himself that they must look
closely to the performance of their
duties under the exclusion law and
see to 1t that members Of the exempt
classes coming to this country are pro-
vided with the proper certificates.
These certificates will be accepted
at any port of the United States and
will guarantee the bearer against any
harsh or discourteous treatment. Such
treatment, indeed, will be the cause
of the instant dismissal of the offend.
ing orricial, whoever he may be.
In addition to the Presidents orders
Secretary Metcalf has issued instruc.
tions to the immigration officers which
II is believed will remedy the difficulty
heretofore complained Of by the Chin.
nese government and individuals. II
is anticipated that the prompt action
taken by this government to meet the
the objections by the Chinese will
eliminate the possibility of serious
trade difficulties between China and
the manufacturers of this country.

Early Days In Colorado.

A recent Denver Republican special
from Trinidad says: The Twenty
third infantry, U. S. A., numbering
about 450 men and thirty-nine officers
passed through Trinidad going east
this morning over the Santa Fe, direct
from the Philippines. The regiment
was stationed on the island of Min
danao, and is bound for Fort Madison,
New York, In command of Col Philip
Read.
Colonel Read entertained several
friends with story of his early travels
through this section. He stated that
he marched over this entire western
country forty years ago, that he built
the first telegraph line which had its
beginning at Santa Fe and ended at
Los Angeles, and had marched from
Trinidad to the Pacific coast. He also
told a story of General Frank d. Bald
win. who was until few weeks ago
the commander of the Department of
the Colorado. He said that in the year
1868. when the general was Lieutenant
Baldwin of the Fifth infantry, he was
in charge of 15O recruits marching
from Fort Harker. Kansas, to fort
near Santa Fe. New Mexico. Mrs.
Baldwin accompanied her husband on
the trip.
The line of march was over tie old
Santa Fe trail across Ration pass. The
ranch Of uncle" Dick Wooton was sit.
uated on top of the mountain under
which the big tunnel of the Santa Fe
now runs. Mrs. Baldwin became III
and was taken to the Wooton ranch,
where baby girl was born to her.
which was named by Mrs. Wooton,
Juanita. The girl is now married to n
lieutenant In the army.
