Deportation of student May Have bad
Eject Upon Feeling
in China.

WASHINGTON, July Through the
enforcement of the immigration laws Of
the United States against a Chinese stu
dent, who was one of a party which ar
rived in Seattle short time ago. young
Chinaman of great promise was forced to
return to his native country, and the case
may result in intensifying the criticism
China offers against the immigration re-
strictions this country imposes on Chinese
of the favored classes.
The student deported was a member of
party of thirty-eight young Cinnamon
whom DR.. Charles d. Teney, a Harvard
man and a member of the faculty of the
Imperial Chinese university, brought to
this country. II was said by health on
GERS that the young student, who was one
of the brightest members OF the party, was
suffering with trachoma, a disease of the
eyes, and after a board had passed on his
case the young man was ordered back 20
China.
DIR. Teney took the other students to
Cambridge, Mass. where they are now at
tending the Harvard summer school. Half
of the young Chinese win be sent TO schools
in Great Britain and the others will be
placed in engineering schools in this coun-
try. The four young Chinese are being
educated by the Chinese government and
the other members OF the party are paying
their own expenses
The students are said to be the fore
runners of a large delegation TO be sent
within few years to this country in case
the United States mobiles its restrictions
upon Chinese Of the educated classes and
makes conditions here attractive TO the
young students. Fear Is expressed. how
ever, that the deportation of the young
student with eye trouble will not be I'M
derstood in China and may have some
