CHINESE EXCLUSION ACT.
Mrs. Mills Says II Has Hurt America
In the Orient.

Mrs, A. T, Mills, missionary 10
CHINA from Rochester, N. Y, is at the
knutsford, en- route back to the orient
from a visit home. She is engaged in
teaching deaf mutes, and has met win,
much success. Mrs. Mills has mastered
the official language of China and uses
American methods in teaching the Chi
nese deaf mutes. She says America
lost n golden opportunity 10 assist m
the forming of the policy VI new China.
simply because Of the Chinese excn-
sion act, The Chinese have alway look
ed upon the Americans as their friends.
They have however, become awakened
TO the meaning Of the exclusion act and
they are retaliating by boycotting
American goods. A number Of the sons
OF the first families OF China have been
sent TO the United states for educa-
tional training. and, because Of soma
misunderstanding on the part Of United
States immigration officials many have
been sent home, after being kept in
prisons several weeks The result has
been that the Chinese of the higher
classes have practically given up the
thought of sending their boys TO Amerl-
ca to receive an education.

emphasized very strongly that this
