How Can the Celestiats be Kept Out, and How Sent Back if They Slip in? Assistant Secretary Tichenor of the Treas- ury Department, in response to the Senate res- olution calling for information relative to the evasion of the law prohibiting Chinese immigration, today sent to the Senate ‘re- ports from special agonts stationed along the border, Under date of Suspension Bridge, New York, April 30, 1839, Special Agent George W. Whitehead reports that Special Employe Lewis on April 29 arrested two Chinamen who had smuggled themselves into the United States from Canada. The latter then invites attention to the fact that, according to the agent's information, there are a large number of Chinamen now in Toronto, Ont., recently ar- rived from Victoria, B.C., who will, it is be- lieved, find their way into “the United States, Wing Tai & Co., of 405 Yonge street, and Lee Wing, 128 Queen street. Toronto, are promi- nent leaders of their countrymen and are said to receive $30 per head for landing them across THIRTEEN ARRESTS IN THREE WEEKS. That close watch is kept of this part of the frontier is shown by the fact that thirteen ar- rests have been made within the past three weeks, which will doubtless have a tendency to check the immigration of these persons, but there is no reason to believe that it can be stopped altogether. An arrest and return to Canada of one of them seoms to have the effect only of causing him to seek some other outlet. Ifthe department should direct that every Chinese person found unlavtuily in the Unitek States be removed therefrom to China, @ second attempt to come here would prob- ably not be made, but the present method will not effectually keep out this undesirable class. A SERIOUS QUESTIO! Mr. Whitehead then cails attention to a phase of the subject whi he says, is likely to become a serious question. Chinese per- sons are found unlawfully within the United States, smuggled from Canada, and they do not have certificates showing that they have paid the Dominion customs tax of $50 per head. How are they to be re- turned to the country whence they came? he asks, The Dominion customs oflicers will cer- tainty ref to admit such persons into Cauada without the proper certificates, and our ofticers will then have to choose, in the absence of further instructions, between smuggling them back and placing them on the bridges connecting the two countries, where they are certain to suffer much discomfort before release, to say nothing of the annoyance such action will cause offi- cers of the bridge companies. AH MOY AND HIS BROTHER, Special Agent James B. Brooks, under date of Toronto, Canada, May 1. says that for two days past the ease of Ah Moy and his brother has been before United States Consul Pope. The Chinamen recently came from Vancouver, B. C., and Ah Moy wanted to cross the bound- a « on preteuse of taking his brother to see a Chinese doctor in the United States, CONSULS WHO DON’T KNOW THE LAWS. “LT presume,” he say! hey would have given satisfactory evidence that they were en- titled to admission into the United States had I not been present to object, for the reason that neither consuls nor coliector of custome, as rule, know the nature of th evidence required as proof of a Chinaman’s right. as a ‘merchant’ to enter United States territory. Consul Pope is a fair representative of his class of officials; he it abie, intelligent, attentive, courteous and very obliging, but he knows ‘absolutely nothing concurning legislation affecting the Chinese, nor has he been supptied with any copy of any law restricting Chinese immigration or exclud- ing their laborers. That more Chinese have not crossed the border under seal of the con- sulate must be because they did not seek to cross by that route.” INFORMATION SHOULD BE FURNISHED THEM. Mir. Brooks requests that the State Depart- ment put into the hands of our consuls along the Canadian border a copy of all the laws af- fecting Chinese immigration and ex- clusion, and the latest decisions of the Treasury Depariment under these laws, He also ds that all our collectors of customs, cially on the northern border, be similarly Ah Moy and his brother had not required by section 6 of the P provided. from the Chinese govera- ment, says the agent, and they were, therefore, refused ‘the papers _ the sought. nt has also credible informa- tion that, during the past year, upward of 200 Chinamen have been unlawfully sent into this country trom Canada.
