WASHINGTON, May 2S.-Travelers arriving in Mexico City from west coast ports report that every ship from Chinese ports is bringing large mum. Der of Asiatic immigrants, advices from the Mexican capital today said.

 The department of Gobernacion has issued statement declaring the only means of excluding Chinese is through health laws rigidly enforced The statement adds that many of the Chinese are in bad health and can be barred The present immigrants are said to be of no benefit to the country.

DANIELS URGES 1916
 NAVY BUILDING PLAN
 BE CARRIED THROUGH

WASHINGTON. May 2S.-Althoug:l the navy department has placed itself on record as being opposed to launch ing new building programs which would give the United States navy second to none in the world,s it is in favor of rushing(to completion,a all cap ital ships already authorf5ed and oi maiptaining temporarily at least, "a force of men capable of Handling ''any emergency which might arise .
 Secretary Daniels, continuing his testimony today before the house naval affairs committee, read a com munication from the general board which recommended. that the ten bat tleships. and ten battle cruisers, auth orized in the 1916 program should be completed as soon as possible, and that no radical changes should be made in construction of the vessels. ,.
 Recommendation was made by the secretary that provisions be made in the 1920 appropriation bill for navy of 250.OOO men, only 23,000 less than now are in the service. He asserted that unless this number was author ized, the navy would be unable ma terially to aid in bringing American troops from Europe and in addition would be dangerously weakened"
 MT. Daniels emphasized that the navy department did not intend to ask congress at this time for permanent navy of 25O,00O men but only for a temporary force large enough to take care of the work arising in the transi- tion period between war and peace. Between. now and the end of the year, the secretary said. the department would have time to study carefully the situation and arrive at a definite conclusion as to the country's needs.
 The recommendation from the gen eral board regarding the early compile tion of the 1916 program disclosed that the naval experts had decided against the composite ship which had been planned to take the place of the battleship and battle cruiser.
 Rear Admiral McKean. acting chief of the office of operations, said Is first class and 1S second class battle ships would be kept in commission as peace time force.
 The department has planned, f> said. to keep in commission 716 ships of all types. put 193 out of commission and place 409 in reserve.

RUSH TROOPS To JuAREz

4, JUAREZ, May 2S.- Train service south of here, so: fafyas the public is concerned, has been suspended for the last three days, the entire equipment of the Mexican Central and the Mexico Northwestern railroads being used for the concentration of troops in Juarez. The garrisons of Villa Ahumada and Moctezuma, respectively 80 and 100 miles to the south, arrived here late today and more soldiers are expected tomorrow from Casas Grandes, 15S miles southwest on the Mexico North western line.
 There are persistent rumors that Villa rebels, under command of Gen. eral Felipe Angeles or Martin Lopez, are moving in the direction of Juarez, but these reports are denied by Col onel Jose C. Escobar, in command of the Juarez garrison. Colonel Escobar insists the garrison is strong enough to resist any force the rebels could bring against it, even if they intended doing so, which he professes not to believe. He explains the suspension of commercial traffic on the railroads as due to the fact that there is no business to move and that the mili- tary authorities seized the opportunity to use the equipment for military movements long contemplated.
