IN THE STATE Cbases continoe to eursion throncV Students can eommftH at rr-y nlnrs ead the rer msrehants, or from The'Am ericas Commissioners report ths "Chinese Govaramsnt claimed that la. this' article they did by exclusion provide that nobody should bs sntitlad tot claim the benefit ef tha reneraJ nrovtsiana of the Bur- llingams Treajy, lt thoM whoiiight wish to corns to ths United States in those parities, or for those purpose I accept this as the definition of the word "laborer, aad as need lathe treaty, hs to the power of legislation respecting this class of per sons. Ths asw treaty provides that "we may not absolutely prohibit'' their coming er their residence. Its Chinese Commissioners gavs notice attha outset ths they would never agree to prohibition of volunteer emigration. JNot- withstanding this, ths United States Com- mionsrs submitted a draft in which it was provided that the United States, might "regulate, limit, suspend or prohibit it.

The Chinees- refused to accept this. The Americans replied that they were willing to consult the wishes of the Chi- Government in preserving the princi ple of free intercourse between the people of tbe two co an tries as sstablishsd by exist-ins; treaties, provided tost the right of the United States Government to use its dis cretion in guarding against say possible evils ef the immigration of Chinese laborers as distinctly ressgnixsd. Tbsrsfers, if such a concession removes all difficulty sn ths part of ths Chinese Cordmisskmers, ths United States Commissioners agreed to re move tbe word "prohibit" from tbeir article, and to use the words "regulate, limit, or suspend." Ths Chinese reply to tills can 'only be inferred from the fact that in place of the sgreement as proposed by our Commissioners, that we might prohibit tbe coming or the residence hers of Chinese laborers, there was in serted in the treaty an agreement that we might not do it. Tbe remaining words. "regulate, limit or first appeared in the American draft.

When it was submitted to the Chinsss thsy said: We infer that of the phases "regulate, limit, suspend or prohibit," the first is a general expression, referring to the others. Ws are entirely ready to negotiate with your Excellency to the end that a limitation, either ra point of time and numbers, may be fixed upon the emigration of Chiness la borers to the United States. At a subsequent interview they said that by "limitation in number" they meant, for example, that the United State, having felt, as thsy supposed, by the record of the nnmber of immigrations in each jrear, as well as ths total number sf Chinese now here, that no more should be allswed to come te America in any ono year in future then their greatest number which had come in any year in tbs past, er that the total number should never be allowed to exceed the number now in America. As to the imitation to time they meant, for exam ple, that the Chiness should be allowed to corns in alternate years, or every xhird year; or, for example, that they should not be allowed to come for two, three er five yers. At a subsequent conference, the Amen- cans said that the Chinese Commissioners have in their projec explicitly recognized the right of the United States to use some discretion, and have prepossd a limitation as to time and as to number.

This is ths right wsy to regulate, limit or suspend. In one of the conferences the Chinese asked tbe Americans whether they could give them any idea of the laws which would be passed to carry the powers into execution. Tbe. Americana answered that this could hardly be done, and tbe United States might never deem it necessary to exercise this power. It would depend upon circumstance.

If the Chinese im migration concentrated in the cities where it threatened order; if it confined itself to localities where it was an injury to the American people, the Government ef tbe United States would undoubtedly take steps to prevent such accumulation of Chinese. If, on the contrary, there was no large immigration, or if there were sections of the country where such immigration was clearly beneficial, then the legislation of the United States, under this power, would be adapted to such circumstances. For example, there might be a demand for Chinese labor in the South, and a surplus of such labor in California, and Congress might legislate in accordance with these facta. In general, legislation would be in view of and depend upon the circumstances of ths situation at ths mo ment such legislation became necessary. The Chinese Commissioners said this explanation was satisfactory.

Judge Daniels stated that it was a question in his mind whether a Police Judge or Justice uf tbe Peace waa required or authorized by law to instruct the jury on legal points connected with the trial of a criminal sase.

This has been construed by the prosecution in this ease, to mean that he considers he has no power to instruct ths jury on questions of law and would require authorities in support of the opposite argument to convince him that be was net right.

WASHrNGTOir, April 6th. Tbs following is tiis full text of Che President's messags yesterday, vetoing ths Anti-Chuess Bill: Ta mm SxkatS After careful oonsid eration sf ths Senate Bill, NoJ 17, entitledi "An Act to execute certain treaty stipuls- tious relating to the Chinese," I hsrewith ntnrn it to ths Senate, whioh It origi nated, with my objections to its psssagr. A nation ia justified in repudiating Its treaty obligations only when they are in conflict with a great and paramount interest. Even tbsn, all possible and reasonable means for modifying or changing these mutnaj agreement, should be exhausted before resorting to the supreme right of refusal to comply with them. These rules have governed tne United States ia their past intercourse with other powers, as themselves one of the family of natisna.

I am persuaded that when Congress can feel that this act violates ths taith sf the nation as pledged to China it will concur with this view, and will sndeavor to find another act which shall meet the expectations of the people of the United States without coming in contact with the rights of China, Ths present treaty relations between that power and tbe United States spring from tbe the antagonism which arose between our paramount domestic interests and our previous relations under the treaty, commonly known as the Burlin-4 game treaty. This conferred upon the Chinese subjects the right of voluntary immigration to tbe United States for the purpose of curiosity or trade, or as permanent residents, and was in alj respects reciprocal as to citizens of the United States in China. It gave to voluntary emigrants earning to the United States the right to travel there, er to reside there with all privileges, immunities or exemptions enjoyed by ths citizens or subjects of the most favored nations. Under the operations of this treaty it was found that the institutions of the United States and its people, and their means of obtaining a livelihood, might be seriously affected by the unrestricted introduction of Chinese labor. Congress attempted to alleviate this by legislation, but the act which it passed proved to be in violation of the treaty obligations, and, being returned by ths President with his objections, failed to become a law.

Diplomatic relief was then sought. A new Treaty was concluded with China without abrogation of the Burlingame Treaty. It was agreed to modify it, so far as the Government of tbe United States might regulate sr snspend the coming of Chinese laborers to the United States, or their residence therein, but it was agreed that it would not absolutely prohibit them, and that the limitation or suspension should apply only to Chinese who might go to tbe United States as laborers. Other class? ea were not being included in the limitation. This treaty is international not reciprocal.

It is a concession from China to the United States, and is a limitation of the rights which she was enjoying under the Burlingame Treaty. It leaves the United States, by its own act, to determine when and bow ws will enforce these limitatiens. China may, therefore, fairly have the right to expect in enforcing them, we will take good cars nst to overstep tbe grant and make than has been conceded to OS. It is but a year since the new treaty under operation of its constitution became a part of the supreme law of the land, and ths present Act is tbs first attempt to exercise the more enlarged powers which it relinquishes te ths Unieed States by the first article the United States empowered to decide whether ths coming of Chinese laborers to tbs United States, or their residence therein, effects or threatens our interests, or' endangers ths good order, sither within the whole country or in any part of it. The act resits that in the opinion of the Government of the United States the coming 'of Chinees laborers to this country endangers the good order of certain localities thereof; but the act itself is much broader than tbe rec'taL It acts upon the residents as well as sn ths smigrants.

Its provisions are effective throughout the United States. I think it may fairly be accepted as aa expression ef the opinion of Congress that the coming of such lat rers to the United. States, or their residence hereA affects our interests aad endangers good order throughout the ooontry. On this point, I feel it my duty to accept ths views of Congress. Ths fret article further' confers' the power upon this Government to regulate, limit or snspend, but not to actually prohibit tbs ming of such laborers to or their residence in the United States.

Ths Americans inserted in their draft of provisions that ths words "Chinees laborers" should signify all smigration ether than for teaching, trade, travel, study and curissity. Tbs negotiators of ths treaty bars recorded with unusual fullness their understanding of ths sense and meaning with which tbess words were nsed, as to ths class of persons Jto be affected by the treaty. Ths Cbineeeypbjscted to this, that it operated to include artisans in ths class of laborers wnese smigration might be far TnddsB. Ths Americana replied that they could not consent that artisans should be sxcluded from 1 the class sf Chic see 'laborers, for- it is? their very som petition ef skill aad labo in sttiss, where the) Chinese labor immigratisa concentrates, which has caused ths embarrassment and popular dieeeotent.
