Trouble i'm Canada.
Yokohama, Japan, Sept "A
fresh outburst OF the anti-Asiatic agi-
tation in British Columbia Is expect
ed on the arrival at Vancouver of
the Canadian Pacific steamship Mon
teagle, now EN- route across the Pa
citic carrying 900 Sikhs, 1,1O0 Chi
nese and few Japanese.
The ships officers, before sailing,
expressed the opinion that they would
not be permitted to land these ASIA
tics, In view of the present temper
OF the Britishers on the Pacific coast,
but they declared 1t was impossible
to refuse them passage. and there is
no law compelling ship owners to
bear the expense of deportation.

adopted by the throne 10 remove the
existing distinctions between Chinese

throne now contemplates the amalga-
nation of the two races. and this
purpose led the throne recently TO
call for suggestions from the memoir

The four main points are: First.
the disbandment of the army the
abolition of their pensions and the
submission Of their officers into the
regular army second, the daughters
OF Chinese OF the upper classes will
be eligible to marry into the imper-
lal FAMILY, and this promises a flu

women.
Japan's attitude towards China Is
another unceasing cause of worry
among the Manchus. who feel GER

attempt on the imperial city. whose
gates are already closely watched 10
