F. H. Larned, ®#Acting Commissioner General of Immigration, wrote recently to United States Immigrant Commissioner Hart H. North at this port asking his opinion as to the advisability of havinng an immigrant station established on one of the islands in the bay. The note men- tiohs that Special Immigrant Inspector Robert Watchom recommends such ah es- tablishment in connection with the en- forcement of the Chinese exclusion laws. Acting Commissioner Larned suggests that the guarters might be made suffi- ciently commodious to serve for Chinese immigrants as well. - \ Commissioner North in_ his reply ap- proves of ‘the proposition ‘'so far as the Chinese exclusion laws are concerned, but dces not approve of it in the case of other classes of immigrants. He says that the system of examining immigrants on board ship while coming down the harbor is more expeditious, and gives better satis- faction to travelers and to the shipping interests than would be the case by cblig-\ ing all the immigrants to go to Angel Island for inspection. Mf. North add: “If there should be another influx of Ja; anese immigrants like that of last year T think an immigrant station would be very useful, but such immigration is very slov/ at this time. — —e——— Sudden Death of E.
